In this paper, we classify irreducible representations of affine group superschemes over fields $F$ of characteristic not two in terms of those over a separable closure $F^{\mathrm{sep}}$ and their Galois twists. We also compute the…
We consider the classification problem for several classes of countable structures which are "vertex-transitive", meaning that the automorphism group acts transitively on the elements. (This is sometimes called homogeneous.) We show that…
The Griffiths group $\Gr^r(X)$ of a smooth projective variety $X$ over an algebraically closed field is defined to be the group of homologically trivial algebraic cycles of codimension $r$ on $X$ modulo the subgroup of algebraically trivial…
We show that the Heisenberg type group $H_X=(\Bbb{Z}_2 \oplus V) \leftthreetimes V^{\ast}$, with the discrete Boolean group $V:=C(X,\Z_2)$, canonically defined by any Stone space $X$, is always minimal. That is, $H_X$ does not admit any…
A group homomorphism $i: H \to G$ is a localization of $H$ if for every homomorphism $\varphi: H\rightarrow G$ there exists a unique endomorphism $\psi: G\rightarrow G$, such that $i \psi=\varphi$ (maps are acting on the right). G\"{o}bel…
A discrete subset $S$ of a topological group $G$ is called a {\it suitable set} for $G$ if $S\cup \{e\}$ is closed in $G$ and the subgroup generated by $S$ is dense in $G$, where $e$ is the identity element of $G$. In this paper, the…
For every $n \geq 1$, let $(\mathrm{FW}_n)$ denote the fixed-point property for median graphs of cubical dimension $n$ (or equivalently, for CAT(0) cube complexes of dimension $n$). In this article, we construct explicit examples of groups…
Harish-Chandra classified discrete series representations of real semisimple Lie groups by describing their characters as tempered distributions with an explicit formula on the elliptic set. His approach was inspired by Weyl's proof of the…
Let $p$ be a prime number and $\Bbbk=\bar{\mathbb{F}}_p$, the algebraic closure of the finite field $\mathbb{F}_p$ of $p$ elements. Let ${\bf G}$ be a connected reductive group defined over $\mathbb{F}_p$ and ${\bf B}$ be a Borel subgroup…
Let F be a finite field with q elements, let A be a finite dimensional F-algebra and let J=J(A) be the Jacobson radical of A. Then G=1+J is a p-group, where p is the characteristic of F. We refer to G as an F-algebra group. A subgroup H of…
We study topological groups that can be defined as Polish, pro-countable abelian groups, as non-archimedean abelian groups or as quasi-countable abelian groups, i.e., Polish subdirect products of countable, discrete groups, endowed with the…
Let F be a local field of positive characteristic, and let G be either a Heisenberg group over F, or a certain (nonabelian) two-dimensional unipotent group over F. If H is an arithmetic subgroup of G, we provide an explicit description of…
We show, under some natural conditions, that the set of abelian points on the non-anomalous subset of a closed irreducible subvariety $X$ intersected with the union of connected algebraic subgroups of codimension at least $\dim X$ in a…
Topological groups whose underlying spaces are basically disconnected, $F$-, or $F'$-spaces but not $P$-spaces are considered. It is proved, in particular, that the existence of a Lindel\"of basically disconnected topological group which is…
We examine the different ways of writing a cover of curves $\phi\colon C\to D$ over a field $K$ as a composition $\phi=\phi_n\circ\phi_{n-1}\circ\dots\circ\phi_1$, where each $\phi_i$ is a cover of curves over $K$ of degree at least $2$…
In this paper we are interested in the following notions of smallness: a subset $A$ of an abelian Polish group $X$ is called Haar-countable/Haar-finite/Haar-$n$ if there are a Borel hull $B\supseteq A$ and a copy $C$ of $2^\omega$ such that…
Let $G$ be a finite group. Denoting by ${\rm{cd}}(G)$ the set of the degrees of the irreducible complex characters of $G$, we consider the {\it character degree graph} of $G$: this is the (simple, undirected) graph whose vertices are the…
The solvability of monomial groups is a well-known result in character theory. Certain properties of Artin L-series suggest a generalization of these groups, namely to such groups where every irreducible character has some multiple which is…
In this article we treat a notion of continuity for a multi-valued function $F$ and we compute the descriptive set-theoretic complexity of the set of all $x$ for which $F$ is continuous at $x$. We give conditions under which the latter set…
We study the automorphism group of the algebraic closure of a substructure A of a pseudo-finite field F, or more generally, of a bounded PAC field F. This paper answers some of the questions of [1], and in particular that any finite group…
