For $\kappa$ a regular uncountable cardinal, the higher Baire and Cantor spaces ${}^\kappa\kappa$ and ${}^\kappa2$ (endowed with the ${<}\kappa$-box topology) have been relatively well-studied, but less is known about the case where…
Let $G$ be a locally compact topological group, $G_0$ the connected component of its identity element, and comp(G) the union of all compact subgroups. A topological group will be called inductively monothetic if any subgroup generated (as a…
A ballean is a set $X$ endowed with some family $\F$ of its subsets, called the balls, in such a way that $(X,\F)$ can be considered as an asymptotic counterpart of a uniform topological space. Given a cardinal $\kappa$, we define $\F$…
We discuss a Plancherel formula for countable groups, which provides a canonical decomposition of the regular representation of such a group $\Gamma$ into a direct integral of factor representations. Our main result gives a precise…
Assume that $G$ is a finite group. For every $a, b \in\mathbb N,$ we define a graph $\Gamma_{a,b}(G)$ whose vertices correspond to the elements of $G^a\cup G^b$ and in which two tuples $(x_1,\dots,x_a)$ and $(y_1,\dots,y_b)$ are adjacent if…
For a centerless group G, we can define its automorphism tower. We define G^{alpha} : G^0=G, G^{alpha +1}=Aut(G^alpha) and for limit ordinals G^delta=bigcup_{alpha < delta}G^alpha . Let tau_G be the ordinal when the sequence stabilizes.…
We prove the following theorem. Let $G$ be a finite group generated by unitary reflections in a complex Hermitian space $V=\mathbb{C}^\ell$ and let $G'$ be any reflection subgroup of $G$. Let $\mathcal{H}(G)$ be the space of $G$-harmonic…
We consider formal maps in any finite dimension $d$ with coefficients in an integral domain $K$ with identity. Those invertible under formal composition form a group $\mathcal{G}$. We consider the centraliser $C_g$ of an element…
If cf(kappa) = kappa, kappa^+< cf(lambda) = \lambda, then there is a stationary subset S of {delta<lambda:cf(delta)=kappa} in I[lambda]. Moreover, we can find <C_delta :delta in S>, C_delta a club of lambda, otp(C_delta)=kappa, guessing…
Let $\Gamma$ be a finitely generated nilpotent group and let G be a complex reductive algebraic group. The representation variety $\mathrm{Hom}(\Gamma,G)$ and the character variety $\mathrm{Hom}(\Gamma,G)//G$ each carry a natural topology,…
Let $G$ be a simple algebraic group of exceptional type over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p \geqslant 0$ which is not algebraic over a finite field. Let $\mathcal{C}_1, \ldots, \mathcal{C}_t$ be non-central conjugacy…
We prove that for any infinite countable amenable group $G$, any $\epsilon > 0$ and any finite subset $K\subset G$, there exists a tiling (partition of $G$ into finite "tiles" using only finitely many "shapes"), where all the tiles are $(K;…
Suppose that kappa is a singular cardinal of cofinality omega and GCH holds. Assume that for every n<omega the set of alphas with o(alpha)>= alpha^{+n} is unbounded in kappa.Then there is a cardinal preserving extension satisfying…
We call a subset $A$ of an abelian topological group $G$: (i) $absolutely$ $Cauchy$ $summable$ provided that for every open neighbourhood $U$ of $0$ one can find a finite set $F\subseteq A$ such that the subgroup generated by $A\setminus F$…
Let $\varphi\colon\Gamma\to G$ be a homomorphism of groups. We consider factorizations $\Gamma\xrightarrow{f} M\xrightarrow{g} G$ of $\varphi$ such that either $g$ or $f$ are universal normal maps (namely, crossed modules). These two…
Let C denote any of the following cardinal characteristics of Boolean algebras: incomparability, spread, character, pi-character, hereditary Lindelof number, hereditary density. It is shown to be consistent that there exists a sequence…
For the space of $(\sigma,\tau)$-derivations of the group algebra $ \mathbb{C} [G] $ of discrete countable group $G$, the decomposition theorem for the space of $(\sigma,\tau)$-derivations, generalising the corresponding theorem on ordinary…
Let $H$ be a transfer Krull monoid over a finite ablian group $G$ (for example, rings of integers, holomorphy rings in algebraic function fields, and regular congruence monoids in these domains). Then each nonunit $a \in H$ can be written…
We generalise the definition of a group algebra so that it makes sense for non-locally compact topological groups, in particular, we require that the representation theory of the group algebra is isomorphic (in the sense of Gelfand-Raikov)…
An inaccessible cardinal kappa is supercompact when (kappa, lambda)-ITP holds for all lambda greater than or equal to kappa. We prove that if there is a model of ZFC with infinitely many supercompact cardinals, then there is a model of ZFC…
