We give strengthened versions of the Herwig-Lascar and Hodkinson-Otto extension theorems for partial automorphisms of finite structures. Such strengthenings yield several combinatorial and group-theoretic consequences for homogeneous…

Let $P(\mathrm{sl}_2(K))$ be the Poisson enveloping algebra of the Lie algebra $\mathrm{sl}_2(K)$ over an algebraically closed field $K$ of characteristic zero. The quotient algebras $ $ $P(\mathrm{sl}_2(K))/(C_P-\lambda)$, where $C_P$ is…

After more than thirty years, the only known examples of Anosov diffeomorphisms are hyperbolic automorphisms of infranilmanifolds. It is also important to note that the existence of an Anosov automorphism is a really strong condition on an…

We prove a log-free zero density estimate for automorphic $L$-functions defined over a number field $k$. This work generalizes and sharpens the method of pseudo-characters and the large sieve used earlier by Kowalski and Michel. As…

A topological group $G$ is said to have no small subgroup (resp. no small normal subgroup) if it admits an open neighbourhood of the identity containing no non-trivial subgroup (resp. normal subgroup) of $G$. These properties are usually…

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…

Let Diff(N) and Homeo(N) denote the smooth and topological group of automorphisms respectively that fix the boundary of the n-manifold N, pointwise. We show that the (n-4)-th homotopy group of Homeo(S^1 \times D^{n-1}) is not…

In this paper, the problem formulated in [8] is solved. We prove, that the group of automorphisms of the category of free associative algebras is generated by semi-inner and mirror automorphisms

Superconformal indices (SCIs) of 4d ${\mathcal N}=4$ SYM theories with simple gauge groups are described in terms of elliptic hypergeometric integrals. For $F_4, E_6, E_7, E_8$ gauge groups this yields first examples of integrals of such…

We are given a finite group $H$, an automorphism $\tau$ of $H$ of order $r$, a Galois extension $L/K$ of fields of characteristic zero with cyclic Galois group $\langle\sigma\rangle$ of order $r$, and an absolutely irreducible…

Anti-self-dual (ASD) solutions to the Yang-Mills equation (or instantons) over an anti-self-dual four manifold, which are invariant under an appropriate action of a three dimensional Lie group, give rise, via twistor construction, to…

Let M be a simply-connected closed oriented N-dimensional manifold. We prove that for any field of coefficients there exists a natural homomorphism of commutative graded algebras $\Psi : H_\ast (\Omega {aut}_1 M) \to H_{\ast +N}(M^{S^1})$…

We generalize the positive solution of the Frobenius conjecture and refinements thereof by studying the structure of groups that admit a fix-point-free automorphism satisfying an identity. We show, in particular, that for every polynomial…

This article considers $G$-Anosov representations of a fixed closed oriented Riemann surface $\Sigma$ of genus at least $2$. Here, $G$ is the Lie group $\text{PSp}(2n,\mathbb{R}$), $\text{PSO}(n,n)$ or $\text{PSO}(n,n+1)$. It proves that…

Bujalance, Costa and Izquierdo have recently proved that all those Riemann surfaces of genus $g \ge 2$ different from $3, 6, 12, 15$ and 30, with exactly $4g$ automorphisms form an equisymmetric one-dimensional family, denoted by…

In a series of papers, van Geemen and Top have defined a family of surfaces $S_z$ indexed by a nonzero integer parameter $z$, and a compatible family of 3-dimensional Galois representations over $\Q(i)$ attached to each surface. In this…

Let N be a complete, homogeneously regular Riemannian manifold of dimension greater than 2 and let M be a compact submanifold of N. Let $\Sigma$ be a compact orientable surface with boundary. We show that for any continuous $f: (\Sigma,…

For an epimorphism pi of the free group F_n onto a finite group G write Gamma(G,pi) for the group of all automorphisms f of F_n for which pi*f = pi. This is called the standard congruence subgroup of Aut(F_n) associated to G and pi. In the…

The compact simply connected Riemannian 4-symmetric spaces were classified by J.A. Jim{\'{e}}nez according to type of the Lie algebras. As homogeneous manifolds, these spaces are of the form $G/H$, where $G$ is a connected compact simple…

Let $S$ be a semigroup. Our main results is that we describe the complex-valued solutions of the following functional equations \[g(x\sigma (y)) = g(x)g(y)+f(x)f(y),\ x,y\in S,\] \[f(x\sigma (y)) = f(x)g(y)+f(y)g(x),\ x,y\in S,\] and…
