In this paper we determine the torsion free rank of the group of endotrivial modules for any finite group of Lie type, in both defining and non-defining characteristic. On our way to proving this, we classify the maximal rank $2$ elementary…

This paper will be concerned with proving that certain Whitehead groups of torsion-free elementary amenable groups are torsion groups and related results, and then applying these results to the Bass conjecture. In particular we shall…

In this work, we prove that if a triangular algebra $A$ admits a strongly simply connected universal Galois covering for a given presentation then the fundamental group associated to this presentation is free.

We show that any closed hyperbolic $3$-manifold $M$ has a co-final tower of covers $M_i \to M$ of degrees $n_i$ such that any subgroup of $\pi_1(M_i)$ generated by $k_i$ elements is free, where $k_i \ge n_i^C$ and $C = C(M) > 0$. Together…

We prove the torsion freeness of the decomposable Orlik--Solomon algebra of a simple matroid on ground set $[n]$. In the class of hypersolvable \& non-supersolvable complex hyperplane arrangements, the torsion freeness, in a certain degree,…

We give a complete classification of the class of Lie algebras of simply connected real Lie groups whose nontrivial coadjoint orbits are of codimension 1. Such a Lie group belongs to a well-known class, called the class of MD-groups. The…

Let g be a free brace algebra. This structure implies that g is also a prelie algebra and a Lie algebra. It is already known that g is a free Lie algebra. We prove here that g is also a free prelie algebra, using a description of g with the…

The purpose of this article is to prove that the category of cocommutative Hopf $K$-algebras, over a field $K$ of characteristic zero, is a semi-abelian category. Moreover, we show that this category is action representable, and that it…

We introduce a linearly ordered lattice $\mu(Grp)$ of torsion theories in simplicial groups. The torsion theories are defined where the torsion/torsion-free subcategories are given by the simplicial groups with bounded above/below Moore…

We provide new results and new proofs of results about the torsion of curves in $\mathbb{R}^3$. Let $\gamma$ be a smooth curve in $\mathbb{R}^3$ that is the graph over a simple closed curve in $\mathbb{R}^2$ with positive curvature. We give…

We study (relative) K-Mittag-Leffler modules, with emphasis on the class K of absolutely pure modules. A final goal is to describe the K-Mittag-Leffler abelian groups as those that are, modulo their torsion part, aleph_1-free, Cor.6.12.…

A new structure, based on joining copies of a group by means of a \emph{twist}, has recently been considered to describe the brackets of the two exceptional real Lie algebras of type $G_2$ in a highly symmetric way. In this work we show…

We characterize co-Hopfian finitely generated torsion free nilpotent groups in terms of their Lie algebra automorphisms, and construct many examples of such groups.

We show that the Levine-Weibel Chow group of 0-cycles $\CH^d(A)$ of a reduced affine algebra $A$ of dimension $d \ge 2$ over an algebraically closed field is torsion-free. Among several applications, it implies an affirmative solution to an…

We find a basis of the free Malcev algebra on three free generators over a field of characteristic zero. The specialty and semiprimity of this algebra are proved. In addition, we prove the decomposability of this algebra into subdirect sum…

We construct a non-free but aleph_1-separable, torsion-free abelian group G with a pure free subgroup B such that all subgroups of G disjoint from B are free and such that G/B is divisible. This answers a question of Irwin and shows that a…

We provide an explicit classification of all simple $\mathfrak{sl}_2$-modules that are torsion free of rank $1$ over the Cartan subalgebra. We also establish a similar result for the first Weyl algebra and for the Lie superalgebra…

We prove that for a group $\mathrm{SO}_n(\mathrm{R}) \subset G \subset \mathrm{GL}_n (\mathrm{R})$, any $G$-structure on a smooth manifold can be endowed with a torsion free connection which is locally the Levi-Civita connection of a…

Divergence-free Lie algebras (also known as the special Lie algebras of Cartan type) are Lie algebras of volume-preserving transformation groups. They are simple in generic case. Dokovic and Zhao found a certain graded generalization of…

The orthogonal groups are a series of simple Lie groups associated to symmetric bilinear forms. There is no analogous series associated to symmetric trilinear forms. We introduce an infinite dimensional group-like object that can be viewed…
