This work presents the conjugacy classes of finite abelian subgroups of the Cremona group of the plane. Using a well-known theory, this problem amounts to the study of automorphism groups of some Del Pezzo surfaces and conic bundles. We…

We compute the Schwartzman group associated with an ergodic affine automorphism of a compact connected abelian group given by the composition of an automorphism of the group and a translation by an element in the path component of the…

We show that a finite group $G$ admitting an automorphism $\alpha$ such that the function $G\rightarrow G$, $g\mapsto g\alpha(g)$, is bijective is necessarily solvable.

Given a positive definite even lattice and a commutative ring, there is a standard construction of a lattice vertex algebra over the commutative ring, and it admits a natural grading by non-negative integers. We describe the groups of…

Let $G$ be a connected reductive group over an algebraically closed field $k$, and let $Fl$ be the affine flag variety of $G$. For every regular semisimple element $\gamma$ of $G(k((t)))$, the affine Springer fiber $Fl_{\gamma}$ can be…

We study the mapping class group of a nontrivial irreducible shift of finite type: the group of flow equivalences of its mapping torus modulo isotopy. This group plays for flow equivalence the role that the automorphism group plays for…

We investigate the possible structures imposed on a finite group by its possession of an automorphism sending a large fraction of the group elements to their cubes, the philosophy being that this should force the group to be, in some sense,…

We study a kind of modification of an affine domain which produces another affine domain. First appeared in passing in the basic paper of O. Zariski (1942), it was further considered by E.D. Davis (1967). The first named author applied its…

In the paper the foundation of the $k$-orbit theory is developed. The theory opens a new simple way to the investigation of groups and multidimensional symmetries. The relations between combinatorial symmetry properties of a $k$-orbit and…

We present a characterization of finite permutation groups which contain a transitive dihedral subgroup.

This paper considers flag-transitive $4$-$(q+1,k,\lambda)$ designs with $\lambda\geq5$ and $q+1>k>4$. Let the automorphism group of a design $\cal D$ be a simple group $G=PSL(2,q)$. Depend on the fact that the setwise stabilizer $G_B$ must…

Given a permutation group acting on coordinates of $\mathbb{R}^n$, we consider lattice-free polytopes that are the convex hull of an orbit of one integral vector. The vertices of such polytopes are called \emph{core points} and they play a…

Comparability graphs are graphs which have transitive orientations. The dimension of a poset is the least number of linear orders whose intersection gives this poset. The dimension ${\rm dim}(X)$ of a comparability graph $X$ is the…

Let $G$ be the split orthogonal group of degree $2n$ over an arbitrary infinite field $\mathbb{F}$ of chararcteristic not $2$. In this paper, we classify multiple flag varieties $G/P_1\times\cdots\times G/P_k$ of finite type. Here a…

We study in detail the profinite group G arising as geometric \'etale iterated monodromy group of an arbitrary quadratic morphism f with an infinite postcritical orbit over a field of characteristic different from two. This is a…

We study the automorphism group of graphons (graph limits). We prove that after an appropriate "standardization" of the graphon, the automorphism group is compact. Furthermore, we characterize the orbits of the automorphism group on…

A finite graph $\Gamma$ is called $G$-symmetric if $G$ is a group of automorphisms of $\Gamma$ which is transitive on the set of ordered pairs of adjacent vertices of $\Gamma$. We study a family of symmetric graphs, called the unitary…

Let $G$ be the split orthogonal group of degree $2n+1$ over an arbitrary field $\mathbb{F}$ of ${\rm char}\,\mathbb{F}\ne 2$. In this paper, we classify multiple flag varieties $G/P_1\times\cdots\times G/P_k$ of finite type. Here a multiple…

We study new families of curves that are suitable for efficiently parametrizing their moduli spaces. We explicitly construct such families for smooth plane quartics in order to determine unique representatives for the isomorphism classes of…

A finite shift plane can be equivalently defined via abelian relative difference sets as well as planar functions. In this paper, we present a generic way to construct unitals in finite shift planes of odd orders $q^2$. We investigate…
