Let $\overline G$ be the wonderful compactification of a simple affine algebraic group $G$ defined over $\mathbb C$ such that its center is trivial and $G\not= {\rm PSL}(2,\mathbb{C})$. Take a maximal torus $T \subset G$, and denote by…

We obtain necessary and sufficient conditions when a pseudocompact paratopological group is topological. (2-)pseudocompact and countably compact paratopological groups that are not topological are constructed. It is proved that each…

A topological group $X$ is defined to have $compact$ $exponent$ if for some number $n\in\mathbb N$ the set $\{x^n:x\in X\}$ has compact closure in $X$. Any such number $n$ will be called a compact exponent of $X$. Our principal result…

It is a simple fact that a subgroup generated by a subset $A$ of an abelian group is the direct sum of the cyclic groups $\langle a\rangle$, $a\in A$ if and only if the set $A$ is independent. In [5] the concept of an $independent$ set in…

If G is a group with a presentation of the form < x,y|x^3=y^3=W(x,y)^2=1 >, then either G is virtually soluble or G contains a free subgroup of rank 2. This provides additional evidence in favour of a conjecture of Rosenberger.

Let $T$ be a (first order complete) dependent theory, ${\mathfrak{C}}$ a $\bar\kappa$-saturated model of $T$ and $G$ a definable subgroup which is abelian. Among subgroups of bounded index which are the union of $<\bar\kappa$ type definable…

Every countable group that does not contain a finitely generated subgroup of exponential growth imbeds in a finitely generated group of subexponential growth. This produces in particular the first examples of groups of subexponential growth…

For every countable group $G$, there are $2^{\omega}$ distinct classes of coarsely equivalent subsets of $G$.

In \cite{Kramer11} Kramer proves for a large class of semisimple Lie groups that they admit just one locally compact $\sigma$-compact Hausdorff topology compatible with the group operations. We present two different methods of generalising…

Let G be a finitely presented group, and let p be a prime. Then G is 'large' (respectively, 'p-large') if some normal subgroup with finite index (respectively, index a power of p) admits a non-abelian free quotient. This paper provides a…

We initiate the study of the $p$-local commensurability graph of a group, where $p$ is a prime. This graph has vertices consisting of all finite-index subgroups of a group, where an edge is drawn between $A$ and $B$ if $[A : A\cap B]$ and…

Let $G$ be a locally compact Abelian group, and $w: G\to (0, \infty)$ be a Borel measurable weighted function. In this paper, the algebraic and topological properties of group algebra are studied and assessed. We show that the weighted…

A group $G$ is called subgroup conjugacy separable if for every pair of non-conjugate finitely generated subgroups of $G$, there exists a finite quotient of $G$ where the images of these subgroups are not conjugate. It is proved that the…

Let $G$ be a compact Lie group. (Compact) topological $G$-manifolds have the $G$-homotopy type of (finite-dimensional) countable $G$-CW complexes (2.5). This partly generalizes Elfving's theorem for locally linear $G$-manifolds [Elf96],…

A group in which all cyclic subgroups are 2-subnormal is called a 2-Baer group. The topic of this paper are generalized 2-Baer groups, i.e. groups in which the non-2-subnormal cyclic subgroups generate a proper subgroup of the group. If…

Let $1 \in A \subset B$ be an inclusion of unital C*-algebras of index-finite type and depth 2. Suppose that $A$ is infinite dimensional simple with $tsr(A) = 1$ and SP-property. Then $tsr(B) \leq 2$. As a corollary when $A$ is a simple…

We address two properties for Abelian topological groups: ``every closed subgroup is dually closed'' and ``every closed subgroup is dually embedded.'' We exhibit a pair of topological groups such that each has both of the properties and the…

A group $G$ is integrable if it is isomorphic to the derived subgroup of a group $H$; that is, if $H'\simeq G$, and in this case $H$ is an integral of $G$. If $G$ is a subgroup of $U$, we say that $G$ is integrable within $U$ if $G=H'$ for…

We define the action of a locally compact group $G$ on a topological graph $E$. This action induces a natural action of $G$ on the $C^*$-correspondence ${\mathcal H}(E)$ and on the graph $C^*$-algebra $C^*(E)$. If the action is free and…

The goal of this thesis is to define a 2-dimensional version of abelian categories, where symmetric 2-groups play the role that abelian groups played in 1-dimensional algebra. Abelian and 2-abelian groupoid enriched categories are defined…
