In this paper, we study the action of non abelian group G generated by affine homotheties on R^n. We prove that G satisfies one of the following properties: (i) there exist a subgroup F_{G} of R\{0} containing 0 in its closure, a…

Let $G$ be an arbitrary group. We define a gain-line graph for a gain graph $(\Gamma,\psi)$ through the choice of an incidence $G$-phase matrix inducing $\psi$. We prove that the switching equivalence class of the gain function on the line…
For a certain class of abelian categories, we show how to make sense of the "Euler characteristic" of an infinite projective resolution (or, more generally, certain chain complexes that are only bounded above), by passing to a suitable…
A finite group is called $\psi$-divisible iff $\psi(H)|\psi(G)$ for any subgroup $H$ of a finite group $G$. Here, $\psi(G)$ is the sum of element orders of $G$. For now, the only known examples of such groups are the cyclic ones of…
For a group $G$ acting over a set $X$, the set of all the $G$-equivariant functions, i.e., the set of functions which conmute with the action, ($g\cdot f(x)=g\cdot f(x), \forall g\in G, \forall x\in X$), is a monoid with the composition.…
Let g be a (say, sufficiently differentiable) function on the reals. One knows how to apply g to Hermitian elements A of a C* algebra. Yet the question of differentiability of the mapping A to g(A) is not trivial, since in general "A and dA…
Let G be a reductive connected linear algebraic group over an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic and let g be its Lie algebra. First we extend a well-known result about the Picard group of a semisimple group to reductive…
When a pair of \'etale groupoids $\mathcal{G}$ and $\mathcal{G}'$ on totally disconnected spaces are related in some way, we discuss the difference of their homology groups. More specifically, we treat two basic situations. In the…
In [K. Bou-Rabee, B. Seward, J. Reine Angwe. Math. 2016] Bou-Rabee and Seward constructed examples of finitely generated residually finite groups $G$ whose residual finiteness growth function $\mathcal{F}_G$ can be at least as fast as any…
Let $G$ be a discrete group and let $\mathcal A$ and $\mathcal B$ be two subgroups of $G$-valued continuous functions defined on two $0$-dimensional compact spaces $X$ and $Y$. A group isomorphism $H$ defined between $\mathcal A$ and…
For each finite group G, we define the Grothendieck-Teichm\"uller group of G, denoted GT(G), and explore its properties. The theory of dessins d'enfants shows that the inverse limit of GT(G) as G varies can be identified with a group…
In this paper we obtain several new complete characterizations of pseudolinear functions. Two of the results are of first-order and one is derivative free. All results are derived in terms of the Clarke-Rockafellar subdifferential.…
We let the central Fourier algebra, ZA(G), be the subalgebra of functions u in the Fourier algebra A(G) of a compact group, for which u(xyx^{-1})=u(y) for all x,y in G. We show that this algebra admits bounded point derivations whenever G…
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…
Let X be a Hausdorff topological group and G a locally compact subgroup of X. We show that the natural action of G on X is proper in the sense of R. Palais. This is applied to prove that there exists a closed set F of X such that FG=X and…
Let $A$ be a set and $f:A\rightarrow A$ a bijective function. Necessary and sufficient conditions on $f$ are determined which makes it possible to endow $A$ with a binary operation $*$ such that $(A,*)$ is a cyclic group and $f\in…
If G is a group, a pseudocharacter f: G-->R is a function which is "almost" a homomorphism. If G admits a nontrivial pseudocharacter f, we define the space of ends of G relative to f and show that if the space of ends is complicated enough,…
There are various results in the literature which are part of the general philosophy that a finite group for which a certain parameter (for example, the number of conjugacy classes or the maximum number of elements inverted, squared or…
This paper studies separating invariants of finite groups acting on affine varieties through automorphisms. Several results, proved by Serre, Dufresne, Kac-Watanabe and Gordeev, and Jeffries and Dufresne exist that relate properties of the…
