We estimate the asymptotic density of the set $\bar{A}$ of primes $p$ satisfying the constraint that $p+1$ and $p-1$ have only one prime divisor larger than $3$. We also estimate the density of a maximal subset $\bar{B} \subset \bar{A}$…

It is known that irreducible noncommutative differential structures over $\Bbb F_p[x]$ are classified by irreducible monics $m$. We show that the cohomology $H_{\rm dR}^0(\Bbb F_p[x]; m)=\Bbb F_p[g_d]$ if and only if ${\rm Tr}(m)\ne 0$,…

For $N \geq 2$, we study the structure of definable abelian group extensions of the additive group $(\mathbb{R}^N,+)$ by countable abelian (Borel) groups $G$. Given an extension $H$ of $(\mathbb{R}^N,+)$ by $G$, we measure the definability…

We characterize the pairs of sets $A, B$ in an arbitrary (countable or uncountable) discrete abelian group $\Gamma$ satisfying $\tilde{m}(A+B)<\tilde{m}(A)+\tilde{m}(B)$, where $\tilde{m}$ is an arbitrary finitely additive…

For a tuple $A=(A_0, A_1, ..., A_n)$ of elements in a unital Banach algebra ${\mathcal B}$, its {\em projective spectrum} $p(A)$ is defined to be the collection of $z=[z_0, z_1, ..., z_n]\in \pn$ such that $A(z)=z_0A_0+z_1A_1+... +z_nA_n$…

Following Darji, we say that a Borel subset $B$ of an abelian Polish group $G$ is Haar meager if there is a compact metric space $K$ and a continuous function $f : K \to G$ such that the preimage of the translate, $f^{-1}(B+g)$ is meager in…

It is proved that any countable topological vector space over a finite field $\mathbb F_p$ or, equivalently, any countable Abelian topological group of prime exponent has a closed discrete basis.

We show that for any continuous monotonic fixed-point free automorphism $f$ on a $\sigma$-compact subgroup $G\subset \mathbb R$ there exists a binary operation $+_f$ such that $\langle G, +_f\rangle$ is a topological group topologically…

Let G be any abelian group and {a_sG_s}_{s=1}^k be a finite system of cosets of subgroups G_1,...,G_k. We show that if {a_sG_s}_{s=1}^k covers all the elements of G at least m times with the coset a_tG_t irredundant then [G:G_t]\le 2^{k-m}…

We prove that every homogeneous countable dense homogeneous topological space containing a copy of the Cantor set is a Baire space. In particular, every countable dense homogeneous topological vector space is a Baire space. It follows that,…

It is proved that given any prime ideal $\mathfrak{p}$ of height at least 2 in a countable commutative noetherian ring $A$, there are uncountably many more dualizable objects in the $\mathfrak{p}$-local $\mathfrak{p}$-torsion stratum of the…

Let $A$ be a subset of the cyclic group $\mathbf{Z}/p\mathbf{Z}$ with $p$ prime. It is a well-studied problem to determine how small $|A|$ can be if there is no unique sum in $A+A$, meaning that for every two elements $a_1,a_2\in A$, there…

We prove that if $B$ is a $p$-block with non-trivial defect group $D$ of a finite $p$-solvable group $G$, then $\ell(B) < p^r$, where $r$ is the sectional rank of $D$. We remark that there are infinitely many $p$-blocks $B$ with non-Abelian…

In the additive topological group $(\mathbb{R},+)$ of real numbers, we construct families of sets for which elements are not measurable in the Lebesgue sense. The constructed families have algebraic structures of being semigroups (i.e.,…

We consider interpretable topological spaces and topological groups in a $p$-adically closed field $K$. We identify a special class of "admissible topologies" with topological tameness properties like generic continuity, similar to the…

The \emph{Bohr compactification} of an arbitrary topological group $G$ is defined as the group compactification $(bG,b)$ with the following universal property: for every continuous homomorphism $h$ from $G$ into a compact group $K$ there is…

\noindent The most natural group topology on $\Z$ is the discrete one. There are other well-known group topologies on $\Z$, like the $p$-adic, defined for any prime number $p$. It is also an important group topology the weak topology with…

We show that if a finite dimensional Hopf algebra over ${\bf C}$ has a basis such that all the structure constants are non-negative, then the Hopf algebra must be given by a finite group $G$ and a factorization $G=G_+G_-$ into two…

Let $X$ be a Polish space and $K$ a separable compact subset of the first Baire class on $X$. For every sequence $\bs$ dense in $\kk$, the descriptive set-theoretic properties of the set \[ \lbf=\{L\in[\nn]: (f_n)_{n\in L} \text{is…

Let $G$ be an elementary abelian $p$-group, $G\cong{\mathbb F}_p^r$ and let $s_1,\ldots,s_r$ be a basis of $G$ over ${\mathbb F}_p$. Let $V$ be the dual of $G$, $V={\rm Hom}(G,{\mathbb F}_p)=H^1(G,{\mathbb F}_p)$. Let $x_1,\ldots,x_r$ be…
