We show that certain subrings of the cohomology of a finite p-group P may be realised as the images of restriction from suitable virtually free groups. We deduce that the cohomology of P is a finite module for any such subring. Examples…
We study connected components of the Morse boundary and their stabilisers. We introduce the notion of point-convergence and show that if the set of non-singleton connected components of the Morse boundary of a finitely generated group $G$…
It is known that any locally graded group with finitely many derived subgroups of non-normal subgroups is finite-by-abelian. This result is generalized here, by proving that in a locally graded group $G$ the subgroup $\gamma_{k}(G)$ is…
A sharply 2-transitive permutation group of finite Morley rank and characteristic 2 splits; a split sharply 2-transitive permutation group of finite Morley rank and characteristic different from 2 is the group of affine transformations of…
We study the problem of realizing families of subgroups as the set of stabilizers of configurations from a subshift of finite type (SFT). This problem generalizes both the existence of strongly and weakly aperiodic SFTs. We show that a…
Let $\sigma =\{\sigma_i |i\in I\}$ is some partition of all primes $\mathbb{P}$ and $G$ a finite group. A subgroup $H$ of $G$ is said to be $\sigma$-subnormal in $G$ if there exists a subgroup chain $H=H_0\leq H_1\leq \cdots \leq H_n=G$…
Let $G$ be a finite permutation group on $\Omega,$ a subgroup $K\leqslant G$ is called a fixer if each element in $K$ fixes some element in $\Omega.$ In this paper, we characterize fixers $K$ with $|K|\geqslant |G_\omega|$ for each…
For each finite classical group $G$, we classify the subgroups of $G$ which act transitively on a $G$-invariant set of subspaces of the natural module, where the subspaces are either totally isotropic or nondegenerate. Our proof uses the…
We study special subgroups of infinite groups that generalize double centralizers. We analyze sufficient conditions for descending chains of such subgroups to stop after finitely many steps. We discuss whether this phenomenon can happen in…
In this paper, we consider linear combination of determinant and permanent, which we call generalized determinant, and determine the stabilizer group of it.
A group is said to be stable if it is isomorphic to its automorphism group. We investigate how we can extend centerless groups to construct finite stable groups with nontrivial centers. To this end, we classify all finite stable groups…
We formulate and prove a version of the Segal Conjecture for infinite groups. For finite groups it reduces to the original version. The condition that G is finite is replaced in our setting by the assumption that there exists a finite model…
We study $\mu$-stabilizers for groups definable in ACVF in the valued field sort. We prove that $\mathrm{Stab}^\mu(p)$ is an infinite unbounded definable subgroup of $G$ when $p$ is standard and unbounded. In the particular case when $G$ is…
We prove an accessibility theorem for finite-index splittings of groups. Given a finitely presented group G there is a number n(G) such that, for every reduced locally finite G-tree T with finitely generated stabilizers, T/G has at most…
In this note, we describe first the structure of minimal non-Iwasawa finite groups. Then we determine the minimal non-Iwasawa finite groups which are modular. Also, we find connections between minimal non-Iwasawa finite groups and the…
We study the notion of permutation stability (or P-stability) for countable groups. Our main result provides a wide class of non-amenable product groups which are not P-stable. This class includes the product group $\Sigma\times\Lambda$,…
Let $G$ be a permutation group on a set $\Omega$. A base for $G$ is a subset of $\Omega$ whose pointwise stabiliser is trivial, and the base size of $G$ is the minimal cardinality of a base. If $G$ has base size $2$, then the corresponding…
We study stability of metric approximations of countable groups with respect to groups endowed with ultrametrics, the main case study being a $p$-adic analogue of Ulam stability, where we take $GL_n(\mathbb{Z}_p)$ as approximating groups…
We introduce the concept of a type system~$\Part$, that is, a partition on the set of finite words over the alphabet~$\{0,1\}$ compatible with the partial action of Thompson's group~$V$, and associate a subgroup~$\Stab{V}{\Part}$ of~$V$. We…
We investigate fixed subgroups of automorphisms of generalised Baumslag-Solitar (GBS) groups. Our main results are for automorphisms leaving a Bass-Serre tree invariant, under the assumption that all edge stabilisers are strictly contained…
