In this article we establish an analog of the Quillen---Suslin's local-global principle for the elementary subgroup of the general quadratic group and the general Hermitian group. We show that unstable ${\k}$-groups of general Hermitian…
Suppose $G$ is a $\mathcal{T}$-group (finitely generated torsion-free nilpotent) with centralizers outside of the derived subgroup being abelian of rank equal to $\text{rank}(Z_1)+1$. This includes the class of free nilpotent groups…
Recently, the author characterized all artinian square-free rings with identity. Here, those results are extended to the setting of rings with local units. We use this characterization of square-free rings to derive many results similar to…
We introduce the notion of the depth of a finite group $G$, defined as the minimal length of an unrefinable chain of subgroups from $G$ to the trivial subgroup. In this paper we investigate the depth of (non-abelian) finite simple groups.…
In [arXiv:1605.02261] Ros\l{}anowski and Shelah asked whether every locally compact non-discrete group has a null but non-meager subgroup, and conversely whether it is consistent with $ZFC$ that in every locally compact group there are no…
We provide characterizations of Lie groups as compact-like groups in which all closed zero-dimensional metric (compact) subgroups are discrete. The "compact-like" properties we consider include (local) compactness, (local)…
We study limit models in the class of abelian groups with the subgroup relation and in the class of torsion-free abelian groups with the pure subgroup relation. We show: $\textbf{Theorem}$ (1) If $G$ is a limit model of cardinality…
We show that the category of finitely generated free modules over certain local rings is n-angulated for every n at least 3. In fact, we construct several classes of n-angles, parametrized by equivalence classes of units in the local rings.…
Let $\pi_1(C)$ be the algebraic fundamental group of a smooth connected affine curve, defined over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p>0$ of countable cardinality. Let $N$ be a normal (resp. characteristic) subgroup of…
We investigate the structure of locally finite profinite rings. We classify (Jacobson-) semisimple locally finite profinite rings as products of complete matrix rings of bounded cardinality over finite fields, and we prove that the Jacobson…
We introduce the fundamental group ${\mathcal F}(\mathcal{R}_{G, \phi})$ of a uniquely ergodic Cantor minimal $G$-system $\mathcal{R}_{G, \phi}$ where $G$ is a countable discrete group. We compute fundamental groups of several uniquely…
We prove that the reduced group C*-algebras of infinite countable discrete groups having topologically-free extreme boundaries, or more generally groups that satisfy certain combinatorial property including all acylindrically hyperbolic…
Many open conjectures in the representation theory of finite groups can be studied by reducing them to related questions about quasi-simple groups. In such studies, $p$-radical subgroups typically play a critical role. To classify the…
We introduce the concept of quantifying the extent to which a finitely generated group is residually finite. The quantification is carried out for some examples including free groups, the first Grigorchuk group, finitely generated nilpotent…
We prove that nonvanishing of the first Novikov-Betti number implies that the fundamental group contains a nonabelian free subgroup.
We study endomorphisms of a free group of finite rank by means of their action on specific sets of elements. In particular, we prove that every endomorphism of the free group of rank 2 which preserves an automorphic orbit (i.e., acts ``like…
We prove that for arbitrary two finitely generated subgroups A and B having infinite index in a free group F, there is a subgroup H of finite index in B such that the subgroup generated by A and H has infinite index in F. The main corollary…
The topological group version of the celebrated Banach-Mazur problem asks wether every infinite topological group has a non-trivial separable quotient group. It is known that compact groups have infinite separable metrizable quotient…
We prove that if $G$ is a finite simple group which is the unit group of a ring, then $G$ is isomorphic to either (a) a cyclic group of order 2; (b) a cyclic group of prime order $2^k -1$ for some $k$; or (c) a projective special linear…
In this paper we survey a new criteria for solvability of finite groups in terms of number of supersolvable (also known as polycyclic) and non-supersolvable subgroups. In particular, we present original examples of supersolvable groups such…
