We call an algebra $A$ commutator-simple if $[A,A]$ does not contain nonzero ideals of $A$. After providing several examples, we show that in these algebras derivations are determined by a condition that is applicable to the study of local…
Using spaces of homomorphisms and the descending central series of the free groups, simplicial spaces are constructed for each integer q>1 and every topological group G, with realizations B(q,G) that filter the classifying space BG. In…
In this paper, we investigate automorphisms of compact K\"ahler manifolds with different levels of topological triviality. In particular, we provide several examples of smooth complex projective surfaces X whose groups of…
We investigate the deformation theory of the simplest bihamiltonian structure of hydrodynamic type, that of the dispersionless KdV hierarchy. We prove that all of its deformations are quasi-trivial in the sense of B. Dubrovin and Y. Zhang,…
An automorphism of an algebraic surface $S$ is called cohomologically (numerically) trivial if it acts identically on the second $l$-adic cohomology group (this group modulo torsion subgroup). Extending the results of S. Mukai and Y.…
We prove that an element of the symplectic Steinberg group is trivial if and only if its image under any maximal localisation homomorphism is trivial.
Let $S$ be a regular minimal surface of general type over the field of complex numbers, and $\mathrm{Aut}_\mathbb{Q}(S)$ the subgroup of automorphisms acting trivially on $H^*(S,\mathbb{Q})$. It has been known since twenty years that…
In this paper, we study the isotropy groups of locally finite derivations of the polynomial ring $\mathbb{K}[X,Y]$, using Van den Essen's classification of locally finite derivations in two variables. We compare the isotropy group of a…
The pairs $(\mathcal{D},G)$, where $\mathcal{D}$ is a non-trivial $2$-$(k^{2},k,\lambda )$ design, with $\lambda \mid k$, and $G$ is a flag-transitive automorphism group of $\mathcal{D}$ of affine type such that $G \nleq A \Gamma…
We show that complex semisimple quantum groups, that is, Drinfeld doubles of $ q $-deformations of compact semisimple Lie groups, satisfy a categorical version of the Baum-Connes conjecture with trivial coefficients. This approach, based on…
Let G be the fundamental group of the complement of a K(G,1) hyperplane arrangement (such as Artin's pure braid group) or more generally a homologically toroidal group (as defined in the paper). The subgroup of elements in the complex…
We present sufficient conditions for the triviality of the automorphism group of regular Toeplitz subshifts and give a broad class of examples from the class of $\mathcal{B}$-free subshifts satisfying them, extending [10]. On the other hand…
We prove simplicity for incomplete rank 2 Kac-Moody groups over algebraic closures of finite fields with trivial commutation relations between root groups corresponding to prenilpotent pairs. We don't use the (yet unknown) simplicity of the…
Simple algebraic groups of type $F_4$ defined over a field $k$ are the full automorphism groups of Albert algebras over $k$. Let $A$ be an Albert algebra over a field $k$ of arbitrary characteristic. We prove that there is an isotope…
We study deformations of complex projective varieties that are homotopically or homologically trivial. We formulate several conjectures and give some examples and partial answers.
Let K be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. We study the tame isotropy group Tame_D(K[X,Y]) of locally finite derivations of the polynomial ring K[X,Y], using Van den Essen's classification up to conjugation. For each…
We show that the automorphism group of the disk complex is isomorphic to the handlebody group. Using this, we prove that the outer automorphism group of the handlebody group is trivial.
For a mixing shift of finite type, the associated automorphism group has a rich algebraic structure, and yet we have few criteria to distinguish when two such groups are isomorphic. We introduce a stabilization of the automorphism group,…
In the present article, we investigate a possibility of a real-valued map on the space of tuples of commuting trace-class self-adjoint operators, which behaves like the usual trace map on the space of trace-class linear operators. It turns…
We show that if a field k contains sufficiently many elements(for instance, if k is infinite), and K is an algebraically closed field containing k, then every linear algebraic k-group over K is k-isomorphic to Aut(A\otimes_kK), where A is a…
