We introduce a new class of groups called wreath-like products. These groups are close relatives of the classical wreath products and arise naturally in the context of group theoretic Dehn filling. Unlike ordinary wreath products, many…

To a finite group G one can associate a tower of wreath products S_n[G]. It is well known that the graded direct sum of the Grothendieck groups of the categories of finite dimensional complex representations of these groups can be given the…

This work is motivated by the problem of finding locally compact group topologies for piecewise full groups (a.k.a.~ topological full groups). We determine that any piecewise full group that is locally compact in the compact-open topology…

We study infinitely iterated wreath products of finite permutation groups with respect to product actions. In particular, we prove that, for every non-empty class of finite simple groups $\mathcal{X}$, there exists a finitely generated…

We present a full description of the Bieri-Neumann-Strebel invariant of restricted permutational wreath products of groups. We also give partial results about the 2-dimensional homotopical invariant of such groups. These results may be…

A pointwise-elliptic subset of a topological group is one whose elements all generate relatively-compact subgroups. A connected locally compact group has a dense pointwise-elliptic subgroup if and only if it is an extension by a compact…

The class of locally compact near abelian groups is introduced and investigated as a class of metabelian groups formalizing and applying the concept of scalar multiplication. The structure of locally compact near abelian groups and its…

We study generalisations of conjugacy separability in restricted wreath products of groups. We provide an effective upper bound for $\mathcal{C}$-conjugacy separability of a wreath product $A \wr B$ in terms of the $\mathcal{C}$-conjugacy…

We introduce a notion of partition wreath product of a finite group by a partition quantum group, a construction motivated on the one hand by classical wreath products and on the other hand by the free wreath product of J. Bichon. We…

Let $G$ and $H$ be two groups acting on path connected topological spaces $X$ and $Y$ respectively. Assume that $H$ is finite of order $m$ and the quotient maps $p:X\to X/G$ and $q:Y\to Y/H$ are regular coverings. Then it is well-known that…

In this paper, we introduce restricted products for families of locally convex spaces and formulate criteria ensuring that mappings into such products are continuous or smooth. As a special case, can define restricted products of weighted…

In this paper we make explicit an application of the wreath product construction to the Galois groups of field extensions. More precisely, given a tower of fields $F \subseteq K \subseteq L$ with $L/F$ finite and separable, we explicitly…

We present a new proof, which is independent of the finite simple group classification and applies also to infinite groups, that quasiprimitive permutation groups of simple diagonal type cannot be embedded into wreath products in product…

The automorphism group of the composition of graphs $G \circ H$ contains the wreath product $Aut(H) \wr Aut(G)$ of the automorphism groups of the corresponding graphs. The classical problem considered by Sabidussi and Hemminger was under…

We prove a structure theorem for topologically conservative real skew product extensions of distal minimal compact metric $\Z$-flows. The main result states that every such extension can be represented by a perturbation of a Rokhlin skew…

We study lattices in a product $G = G_1 \times \dots \times G_n$ of non-discrete, compactly generated, totally disconnected locally compact (tdlc) groups. We assume that each factor is quasi just-non-compact, meaning that $G_i$ is…

Under mild conditions on the space X, we describe the additive structure of the integral cohomology of the space $X^p \times_{C_p}EC_p$ in terms of the cohomology of X. We give weaker results for other similar spaces, and deduce various…

We propose the systematic study of presentations that can be generalised over a continuous open group monomorphism. Presentations with this property can turn well-known presentations such as those for as orientable surface groups, Artin…

The aim of this paper is to investigate whether the class of automaton semigroups is closed under certain semigroup constructions. We prove that the free product of two automaton semigroups that contain left identities is again an automaton…

We study aspherical manifolds that do not support Anosov diffeomorphisms. Weakening conditions of Gogolev and Lafont, we show that the product of an infranilmanifold with finitely many aspherical manifolds whose fundamental groups have…
