A group $H \cong {\mathbb Z}_{2}^{n}$, $n \geq 3$, of conformal automorphisms of a closed Riemann surface $S$ such that $S/H$ has genus zero and exactly $(n+1)$ cone points is called a generalized Humbert group of type $n$, in which case,…

We consider the problem of discovering subgroup $H$ of permutation group $S_{n}$. Unlike the traditional $H$-invariant networks wherein $H$ is assumed to be known, we present a method to discover the underlying subgroup, given that it…

We establish the existence, finiteness, and uniqueness up to scaling of various isoperimetric profiles of a group, in all dimensions. We also show that these profiles all coincide in dimensions 4 and higher; in particular, the nth Dehn…

We study the cohomology of group theoretic Dehn fillings. Applying the Cohen-Lyndon property for sufficiently deep Dehn fillings of hyperbolically embedded subgroups $H\hookrightarrow_h G$, obtained by the second named author, we derive a…

In [Baumeister, H., Nill, Paffenholz, On permutation polytopes, Adv. Math. 222 (2009), 431-452 / arXiv:0709.1615] we conjectured a characterization of subgroups H of a permutation group G so that, on the level of permutation polytopes, P(H)…

We classify homomorphisms from the braid group on $n$ strands to the pure mapping class group of a nonoriantable surface of genus $g$. For $n\ge 14$ and $g\le 2\lfloor{n/2}\rfloor+1$ every such homomorphism is either cyclic, or it maps…

Let $H$ be a subgroup of a group $G$. A normal subgroup $N_H$ of $H$ is said to be inheritably normal if there is a normal subgroup $N_G$ of $G$ such that $N_H=N_G\cap H$. It is proved in the paper that a subgroup $N_{G_i}$ of a factor…

We show that properties $F_n$ and $FP_n$ hold for a relatively hyperbolic group if and only if they hold for all the peripheral subgroups. As an application we show that there are at least countably many distinct quasi-isometry classes of…

Let F* be the finite field of q elements and let P(n,q) be the projective space of dimension n-1 over F*. We construct a family H^{n}_{k,i} of combinatorial homology modules associated to P(n,q) over a coefficient field F field of…

Each group G of nxn permutation matrices has a corresponding permutation polytope, P(G):=conv(G) in R^{nxn}. We relate the structure of P(G) to the transitivity of G. In particular, we show that if G has t nontrivial orbits, then…

We prove the $K(n)$-local analogue of the Hahn-Wilson conjecture on fp-spectra, which states that the truncated Brown-Peterson spectra generate the category of fp-spectra as a thick subcategory. As a corollary, we deduce the original…

A group homomorphism eta:H-->G is called a localization of H if every homomorphism phi:H-->G can be `extended uniquely' to a homomorphism Phi:G-->G in the sense that Phi eta=phi. Libman showed that a localization of a finite group need not…

We prove that the groups $\mathrm{Aut}(F_n)$ satisfy the Boone-Higman conjecture for all $n$, meaning each $\mathrm{Aut}(F_n)$ embeds in a finitely presented simple group. In fact, we prove that each $\mathrm{Aut}(F_n)$ satisfies the…

We first develop a general theory of Johnson filtrations and Johnson homomorphisms for a group $G$ acting on another group $K$ equipped with a filtration indexed by a "good" ordered commutative monoid. Then, specializing it to the case…

Real forms of a complex reductive group are classified in terms of Galois cohomology $H^1(\Gamma,G_{ad})$ where $G_{ad}$ is the adjoint group. Alternatively, the theory of the Cartan involution gives a description in terms of cohomology…

The aim of this paper is to show that any continuous *-homomorphism of L1(Cn)(with twisted convolution as multipli- cation) into B(L2(Rn)) is essentially a Weyl transform. From this we deduce a similar characterisation for the group Fourier…

Descents in permutations or words are defined from the relative position of two consecutive letters. We investigate a statistic involving patterns of k consecutive letters, and show that it leads to Hopf algebras generalizing noncommutative…

Let $d \geq 1$, $k \geq 2$ and $n\geq d+1$ be integers. A $d$-dimensional smooth complex algebraic variety $M$ is called a generalized Fermat variety of type $(d;k,n)$ if there is a Galois holomorphic branched covering $\pi:M \to {\mathbb…

Let G be a reductive group over a commutative ring R. We say that G has isotropic rank >=n, if every normal semisimple reductive R-subgroup of G contains (G_m)^n. We prove that if G has isotropic rank >=1 and R is a regular domain…

We construct a variant $\mathcal{K}_n$ of the Hopf algebra $\mathcal{H}_n$, which acts directly on the noncommutative model for the generic space of leaves rather than on its frame bundle. We prove that the Hopf cyclic cohomology of…
