Let $A$ be an abelian variety over an algebraically closed field. We show that $A$ is the automorphism group scheme of some smooth projective variety if and only if $A$ has only finitely many automorphisms as an algebraic group. This…

We prove that if a Cartesian product of alternating groups is topologically finitely generated, then it is the profinite completion of a finitely generated residually finite group. The same holds for Cartesian producs of other simple groups…

We give a sharp divisibility bound, in terms of g, for the degree of the field extension required to realize the endomorphisms of an abelian variety of dimension g over an arbitrary number field; this refines a result of Silverberg. This…

We classify Fano polygons with finite mutation class. This classification exploits a correspondence between Fano polygons and cluster algebras, refining the notion of singularity content due to Akhtar and Kasprzyk. We also introduce…

Let $F$ be a finite extension of $\mathbb{Q}_p$. We prove that the category of finitely presented smooth $Z$-finite representations of $GL_2(F)$ over a finite extension of $\mathbb{F}_p$ is an abelian subcategory of the category of all…

We give an exposition of Delzant's ideas extending the notion of Scott complexity of finitely generated groups to surjective homomorphisms of finitely presented groups to finitely generated groups.

We prove that every countable group with solvable power problem embeds into a finitely presented 2-generated group with solvable power and conjugacy problems.

The well known Andrews-Curtis Conjecture [2] is still open. In this paper, we establish its finite version by describing precisely the connected components of the Andrews-Curtis graphs of finite groups. This finite version has independent…

This paper provides a realization of all classical and most exceptional finite groups of Lie type as Galois groups over function fields over F_q and derives explicit additive polynomials for the extensions. Our unified approach is based on…

We prove:(1) the existence, for every integer n > 3, of a noncompact smooth n-dimensional topological manifold whose diffeomorphism group contains an isomorphic copy of every finitely presented group; (2) a finiteness theorem on finite…

We define a class of pre-ordered abelian groups that we call finite-by-Presburger groups, and prove that their theory is model-complete. We show that certain quotients of the multiplicative group of a local field of characteristic zero are…

Building on previous work by Lambert, Plagne and the third author, we study various aspects of the behavior of additive bases in infinite abelian groups and semigroups. We show that, for every infinite abelian group $T$, the number of…

In this paper we generalize Kaplansky's combinatorial characterization of the isomorphism types of embeddings of a cyclic subgroup in a finite abelian group given in his 1951 book ``Infinite Abelian Groups''. For this we introduce partial…

For a fixed odd prime $\ell$, we present new families of identities defined on various subposets of the poset of isomorphism classes of finite abelian $\ell$-groups, generalizing identities of Hall and Cohen-Lenstra. We also present a…

In this paper, we prove Conjecture 4.8 of "Cluster algebras IV" by S. Fomin and A. Zelevinsky, stating that the mutation classes of rectangular matrices associated with cluster algebras of finite type are precisely those classes which are…

Let $A$ be an abelian scheme of dimension at least four over a $\mathbb{Z}$-finitely generated integral domain $R$ of characteristic zero, and let $L$ be an ample line bundle on $A$. We prove that the set of smooth hypersurfaces $D$ in $A$…

We prove by using simple number-theoretic arguments formulae concerning the number of elements of a fixed order and the number of cyclic subgroups of a direct product of several finite cyclic groups. We point out that certain multiplicative…

We study Farrell Nil-groups associated to a finite order automorphism of a ring $R$. We show that any such Farrell Nil-group is either trivial, or infinitely generated (as an abelian group). Building on this first result, we then show that…

Let $A$ be abelian variety over the function field $K$ of a compact Riemann surface $B$. Fix a model $f \colon \mathcal{A} \to B$ of $A/K$ and a certain effective horizontal divisor $\DD \subset \mathcal{A}$. We give a sufficient condition…

Let $G$ be a finitely presented group. A new complexity called \textit{Karoubi-Weibel complexity} or \textit{covering type}, is defined for $G$. The construction is inspired by recent work of Karoubi and Weibel \cite{KW}, initially applied…
