We prove an analogue of the fixed-point theorem for the case of definably amenable groups.

We prove the existence of abelian, solvable and nilpotent definable envelopes for groups definable in models of an NTP2 theory.

I prove that the generic type of the free nonabelian group has infinite weight (strengthening non superstability of the free group).

We begin a study of possibilities of describing hadrons in terms of monolocal fields which transform as proper Lorentz group representations decomposable into an infinite direct sum of finite-dimensional irreducible representations. The…

We give a full proof to Agol's announcement on the classification of non-free Kleinian groups generated by two parabolic transformations.

Let $T$ be a complete theory of fields, possibly with extra structure. Suppose that model-theoretic algebraic closure agrees with field-theoretic algebraic closure, or more generally that model-theoretic algebraic closure has the exchange…

We continue the study of a class of topological $\mathcal{L}$-fields endowed with a generic derivation $\delta$, focussing on describing definable groups. We show that one can associate to an $\mathcal{L}_{\delta}$ definable group a type…

In this paper we consider the palindromic width of free nilpotent groups. In particular, we prove that the palindromic width of a finitely generated free nilpotent group is finite. We also prove that the palindromic width of a free…

We give a new proof that free Burnside groups of sufficiently large even exponents are infinite. The method is very flexible and can also be used to study (partially) periodic quotients of any group which admits an action on a hyperbolic…

We show that for any pair of non-trivial finite groups, their coproduct in the category of finite groups is not representable.

It is known that in any free group the isolator of finitely generated subgroup is finitely generated subgroup. A very simple proof of this statement is proposed.

Let $\Gamma$ be a finite rank subgroup of $\overline{\mathbb{Q}}^*$. We prove that the multiplicative group of the field generated by all elements in the divisible hull of $\Gamma$, is free abelian modulo this divisible hull. This proves…

We construct measures on definable sets in $e$-free perfect PAC fields, as well as on perfect PAC fields whose absolute Galois groups are free pro-$p$ of finite rank. We deduce the definable amenability of all groups definable in such…

The isomorphism problem for infinite finitely presented groups is probably the hardest among standard algorithmic problems in group theory. Classes of groups where it has been completely solved are nilpotent groups, hyperbolic groups, and…

Let $K$ be a $p$-adically closed field and $G$ a group interpretable in $K$. We show that if $G$ is definably semisimple (i.e. $G$ has no definable infinite normal abelian subgroups) then there exists a finite normal subgroup $H$ such that…

We show that if a field A is not pseudo-finite, then there is no prime model of the theory of pseudo-finite fields over A. Assuming GCH, we generalise this result to \kappa-prime models, for \kappa a regular uncountable cardinal or…

Let $K/\mathbb{Q}$ be a finitely generated field of characteristic zero and $X/K$ a smooth projective variety. Fix $q\in\mathbb{N}$. For every prime number $\ell$ let $\rho_\ell$ be the representation of $\mathrm{Gal}(K)$ on the \'etale…

In contrast to the fact that there are only finitely many maximal arithmetic reflection groups acting on the hyperbolic space $\mathbb{H}^n$, $n\geq 2$, we show that: (a) one can produce infinitely many maximal quasi-arithmetic reflection…

We show that infinitely many cubic fields have class group of 2-rank 1.

We extend the Weil representation of infinite-dimensional symplectic group to a representation a certain category of linear relations.
