We show how the existing proof of the Farrell-Jones Conjecture for virtually poly-$\mathbb{Z}$-groups can be improved to rely only on the usual inheritance properties in combination with transfer reducibility as a sufficient criterion for…

We prove that the additive group of the rationals does not have an automatic presentation. The proof also applies to certain other abelian groups, for example, torsion-free groups that are $p$-divisible for infinitely many primes $p$, or…

Green and Ruzsa recently proved that for any $s\ge2$, any small squaring set $A$ in a (multiplicative) abelian group, i.e. $|A\cdot A|<K|A|$, has a Freiman $s$-model: it means that there exists a group $G$ and a Freiman $s$-isomorphism from…

Let $F$ be a number field and let $\mathbb{A}_F$ be its ring of adeles. Let $B$ be a quaternion algebra over $F$ and let $\nu:B \to F$ be the reduced norm. Consider the reductive monoid $M$ over $F$ whose points in an $F$-algebra $R$ are…

The paper [GLZ] "L-functions of Carlitz modules, resultantal varieties and rooted binary trees" is devoted to a description of some resultantal varieties related to L-functions of Carlitz modules. It contains a conjecture that some of these…

The Alperin weight conjecture was reduced to simple groups by the work of Navarro, Tiep and Sp\"ath. To prove Alperin weight conjecture, it suffices to show that all finite non-abelian simple groups are BAW-good. We reduce the verification…

We reduce the Nowicki conjecture on the Weitzenb\"ock derivation of polynomial algebras to well-known problem of the classical invariant theory.

We show that the Freiman--Ruzsa theorem, characterising finite sets with bounded doubling, leads to an alternative proof of a characterisation of Meyer sets, that is, relatively dense subsets of Euclidean spaces whose difference sets are…

We give an analog of Frobenius' theorem about the factorization of the group determinant on the group algebra of finite abelian groups and we extend it into dihedral groups and generalized quaternion groups. Furthermore, we describe the…

From a combinatorial perspective, we establish three inequalities on coefficients of $R$- and Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials for crystallographic Coxeter groups: (1) Nonnegativity of $(q-1)$-coefficients of $R$-polynomials, (2) a new criterion…

A composition of birational maps given by Laurent polynomials need not be given by Laurent polynomials; however, sometimes---quite unexpectedly---it does. We suggest a unified treatment of this phenomenon, which covers a large class of…

The purpose of this paper is two fold. First we introduce the box-tensor product of two groups as a generalization of the nonabelian tensor product of groups. We extend various results for nonabelian tensor products to the box-tensor…

In a recent paper, Gabriel Navarro and Pham Huu Tiep show that the so-called Alperin Weight Conjecture can be verified via the Classification of the Finite Simple Groups, provided any simple group fulfills a very precise list of conditions.…

We propose two conjectures of Hard Lefschetz type on Chow groups and prove them for some special cases. For abelian varieties, we shall show they are equivalent to well-known conjectures of Beauville and Murre.

The well--known Freiman--Ruzsa Theorem provides a structural description of a set $A$ of integers with $|2A|\le c|A|$ as a subset of a $d$--dimensional arithmetic progression $P$ with $|P|\le c'|A|$, where $d$ and $c'$ depend only on $c$.…

We generalize Fomin and Zelevinsky's cluster algebras by allowing exchange polynomials to be arbitrary irreducible polynomials, rather than binomials.

We obtain similar types of conclusions as that of Br\"{u}ck [1] for two differential polynomials which in turn radically improve and generalize several existing results. Moreover, a number of examples have been exhibited to justify the…

We prove a Freiman-Ruzsa-type theorem valid in an arbitrary nilpotent group. Specifically, we show that a K-approximate subgroup A of an s-step nilpotent group G is contained in a coset nilprogression of rank at most f(K) and cardinality at…

There are no square $L^2$-flat sequences of polynomials of the type $$\frac{1}{\sqrt q}( \epsilon_0 + \epsilon_1z + \epsilon_2z^2 + \cdots + \epsilon_{q-2}z^{q-2} +\epsilon_q z^{q-1}),$$ where for each $j,~~ 0 \leq j\leq q-1,~\epsilon_j =…

The Andrews-Curtis conjecture claims that every normally generating $n$-tuple of a free group $F_n$ of rank $n \ge 2$ can be reduced to a basis by means of Nielsen transformations and arbitrary conjugations. Replacing $F_n$ by an arbitrary…
