A normal subgroup of the (extended) mapping class group of a surface is said to be geometric if its automorphism group is the mapping class group. We prove that in the case of the Cantor tree surface, every normal subgroup is geometric. We…

The Thompson group V is a subgroup of the homeomorphism group of the Cantor set. Brin defined higher dimensional Thompson groups nV as generalizations of V. We prove that nV has Serre's property FA, for every n. This is a generalization of…

The present paper mainly presents, for example, explicit classifications of compact smooth manifolds having non-empty boundaries and simple structures where the dimensions are general. Studies of this type is fundamental and important. They…

We describe subgroups and overgroups of the generalised Thompson groups $V_n$ which arise via conjugation by rational homeomorphisms of Cantor space. We specifically consider conjugating $V_n$ by homeomorphisms induced by synchronizing…

Let $M$ and $N$ be smooth manifolds, with $M$ closed and connected. If the $C^r$--diffeomorphism group of $M$ is elementarily equivalent to the $C^s$--diffeomorphism group of $N$ for some $r,s\in[1,\infty)\cup\{0,\infty\}$, then $r=s$ and…

We prove that the Brin-Thompson groups sV, also called higher dimensional Thompson's groups, are of type F_\infty for all natural numbers s. This result was previously shown for s up to 3, by considering the action of sV on a naturally…

Under non-commutative Stone duality, there is a correspondence between second countable Hausdorff \'etale groupoids which have a Cantor space of identities and what we call Tarski inverse monoids: that is, countable Boolean inverse…

A discrete d-manifold is a finite simple graph G=(V,E) where all unit spheres are (d-1)-spheres. A d-sphere is a d-manifold for which one can remove a vertex to make it contractible. A graph is contractible if one can remove a vertex with…

We study the uniformly recurrent subgroups of groups acting by homeomorphisms on a topological space. We prove a general result relating uniformly recurrent subgroups to rigid stabilizers of the action, and deduce a $C^*$-simplicity…

Diagrammatic notation has become a ubiquitous computational tool; early examples include Penrose's graphical notation for tensor calculus, Feynman's diagrams for perturbative quantum field theory, and Cvitanovic's birdtracks for Lie…

Golan and Sapir \cite{MR3978542} proved that the Thompson's groups $F$, $T$ and $V$ have linear divergence. In the current paper, we focus on the divergence properties of several generalisation of the Thompson's groups, we first consider…

Motivated by Burillo, Cleary and Roever's summary on obstructions of subgroups of Thompson's group $V,$ we explored the higher dimensional version of the groups, Brin-Thompson groups $nV$ and $SV,$ a class of infinite dimensional…

We show that pure subgroups of infinitely braided Thompson's are bi-orderable. For every finitely generated pure subgroup, we give explicit sets of generators.

We show how to construct a family of groups with simple commutator subgroups from aperiodic 1-vertex, finitely aligned higher rank graphs (which are, in fact, a class of cancellative monoids). Inverse semigroups form the intermediary…

We study a class of generalisations of Thompson's group $V$ arising naturally as topological full groups of purely infinite, minimal groupoids. In the process, we show that the derived subgroup of such a group is 2-generated whenever it is…

A Cantor surface $\mathcal C_d$ is a non-compact surface obtained by gluing copies of a fixed compact surface $Y^d$ (a block), with $d+1$ boundary components, in a tree-like fashion. For a fixed subgroup $H<Map(Y^d)$ , we consider the…
