Let $m\leq n\in \mathbb{N}$, and $G\leq S_m$ and $H\leq S_n$. In this article we find conditions enabling embeddings between the symmetric R. Thompson groups $V_m(G)$ and $V_n(H)$. When $n\equiv 1 \mod(m-1)$ and under some other technical…

We construct new families of groups with property (T) and infinitely many alternating group quotients. One of those consists of subgroups of $\mathrm{Aut}(\mathbf F_{p}[x_1, \dots, x_n])$ generated by a suitable set of tame automorphisms.…

We describe standard forms for elements of the higher-dimensional Thompson groups $nV$ arising from gridding subdivision processes. These processes lead to standard normal form descriptions for elements in these groups, and sizes of these…

In this paper, we study isometric actions on finite-dimensional CAT(0) spaces for the Higman-Thompson groups $T_n$, which are generalizations of Thompson's group $T$. It is known that every semi-simple action of $T$ on a complete CAT(0)…

We establish rigidity theorems for graph product von Neumann algebras $M_\Gamma=*_{v,\Gamma}M_v$ associated to finite simple graphs $\Gamma$ and families of tracial von Neumann algebras $(M_v)_{v\in\Gamma}$. We consider the following three…

Thompson's theorem stated that a finite group $G$ is solvable if and only if every $2$-generated subgroup of $G$ is solvable. In this paper, we prove some new criteria for both solvability and nilpotency of a finite group using certain…

The paper follows two interconnected directions. 1. Let $G$ be a Roelcke precompact closed subgroup of the group $\Sym(\omega)$ of permutations of the natural numbers. Then $\Inn(G)$ is closed in $\Aut(G)$, where $\Aut(G)$ carries the…

The Higman--Thompson groups $V_{n,r}$ consist of piecewise linear automorphisms of $r$ intervals where cut points and slopes are $n$-adic. Szymik and Wahl prove homological stability for this family of groups as $r$ increases, and compute…

A group $G$ is invariably generated if there exists a subset $S \subseteq G$ such that, for every choice $g_s \in G$ for $s \in S$, the group $G$ is generated by $\{ s^{g_s} \mid s \in S \}$. In [GGJ16] Gelander, Golan and Juschenko showed…

Let G be a finite group acting on a finite dimensional real vector space V. We denote by P(V) the projective space associated to V. In this paper we compute in a very explicit way the rank of the equivariant complex K-theory of V and P(V),…

For any finite group $G$, and any positive integer $n$, we construct an association scheme which admits the diagonal group $D_n(G)$ as a group of automorphisms. The rank of the association scheme is the number of partitions of $n$ into at…

Let \alpha be an automorphism of the totally disconnected group G. The compact open subgroup, V, if G is tidy for \alpha if [\alpha(V') : \alpha(V')\cap V'] is minimised at V, where V' ranges over all compact open subgroups of G.…

In a recent paper [Comm. Algebra, 44(2016) 4724-4731], Das introduced the graph $\mathcal{I}n(\mathbb{V})$, called subspace inclusion graph on a finite dimensional vector space $\mathbb{V}$, where the vertex set is the collection of…

The algebra $\mS_n$ in the title is obtained from a polynomial algebra $P_n$ in $n$ variables by adding commuting, {\em left} (but not two-sided) inverses of the canonical generators of $P_n$. Ignoring non-Noetherian property, the algebra…

We investigate fixed-point properties of automorphisms of groups similar to R. Thompson's group $F$. Revisiting work of Gon\c{c}alves-Kochloukova, we deduce a cohomological criterion to detect infinite fixed-point sets in the…

Using a result of Kari and Ollinger, we prove that the torsion problem for elements of the Brin-Thompson group 2V is undecidable. As a result, we show that there does not exist an algorithm to determine whether an element of the rational…

We introduce forest diagrams and strand diagrams for elements of Thompson's group F. A forest diagram is a pair of infinite, bounded binary forests together with an order-preserving bijection of the leaves. Using forest diagrams, we derive…

We prove that the solvable radical of a finite group G coincides with the set of elements y having the following property: for any x in G the subgroup of G generated by x and y is solvable. We present analogues of this result for finite…

This paper demonstrates the uniformly finite homology developed by Block and Weinberger and its relationship to amenable spaces via applications to the Cayley graph of Thompson's Group F. In particular, a certain class of subgraph of F is…

We study an analogue of the conjugacy growth function in finitely generated groups: the automorphic growth function. This counts the number of automorphic orbits that intersect the ball of radius $n$ in the group. We show that this is not a…
