We construct holomorphic maps with a Siegel disk whose boundary is not locally connected (and is an indecomposable continuum), yet compactly contained in the domain of definition of the map. Our examples are injective and defined on a…

We make a comprehensive and self-contained study of compact bicrossed products arising from matched pairs of discrete groups and compact groups. We exhibit an automatic regularity property of such a matched pair and and produce an easy…

We describe locally compact groups which are separably categorical metric structures. The paper extends (and corrects) Section 3 of the paper A.Ivanov, "Locally compact groups and continuous logic", arXiv: 1206.5473

A topological group is (openly) almost-elliptic if it contains a(n open) dense subset of elements generating relatively-compact cyclic subgroups. We classify the (openly) almost-elliptic connected locally compact groups as precisely those…

In this paper, we show that wreath products of groups have linear divergence, and we generalise the argument to permutational wreath products. We also prove that Houghton groups $\mathcal{H}_m$ with $m\geq 2$ and Baumslag-Solitar groups…

A groupoid is a small category in which each morphism has an inverse. A topological groupoid is a groupoid in which both sets of objects and morphisms have topologies such that all groupoid structure maps are continuous. The notion of…

We give a complete characterization of the locally compact groups that are non-elementary Gromov-hyperbolic and amenable. They coincide with the class of mapping tori of discrete or continuous one-parameter groups of compacting…

We consider bicrossed products obtained by twisting compact semi-direct products by a suitable finite subgroup. Under some restriction, we give a practical criterion for the discrete dual of such bicrossed products to have the rapid decay…

We develop the structure theory of full isometry groups of locally compact non-positively curved metric spaces. Amongst the discussed themes are de Rham decompositions, normal subgroup structure and characterising properties of symmetric…

We study cocompact lattices with dense projections in a product $G_1 \times G_2$ of locally compact groups and show, under the assumption that each $G_i$ is a closed subgroup of the automorphism group $Aut(T_i)$ of a regular tree satisfying…

The blow-up construction by L. G. Kov\'acs has been a very useful tool to study embeddings of finite primitive permutation groups into wreath products in product action. In the present paper we extend the concept of a blow-up to finite…

We find some sufficient conditions under which the permutational wreath product of two groups has a minimal generating set. In particular we prove that for a regular rooted tree the group of all automorphisms and the group of all…

The main result of the paper is the characterization of those locally compact quantum groups with projection, i.e. non-commutative analogs of semidirect products, which are extensions as defined by L. Vainerman and S. Vaes. It turns out…

In [F. Caselli, Involutory reflection groups and their models, J. Algebra 24 (2010), 370--393] it is constructed a uniform Gelfand model for all non-exceptional irreducible complex reflection groups which are involutory. This model can be…

$p$-Adic compactifications of geometric loop and diffeomorphism groups of compact manifolds on finite-dimensional spaces over non-Archimedean fields are investigated. Weakened topology is introduced. The structure of newly constructed…

In analogy to the disjoint cycle decomposition in permutation groups, Ore and Specht define a decomposition of elements of the full monomial group and exploit this to describe conjugacy classes and centralisers of elements in the full…

This thesis is devoted to the study of the interactions existing between the algebraic structure of locally compact groups and the properties of their continuous unitary representations, with a special emphasis on the Type I groups. On the…

Let $X$ be a Hausdorff topological group and $G$ a locally compact subgroup of $X$. We show that $X$ admits a locally finite $\sigma$-discrete $G$-functionally open cover each member of which is $G$-homeomorphic to a twisted product…

We develop the theory of ultracoproducts and weak containment for flows of arbitrary topological groups. This provides a nice complement to corresponding theories for p.m.p. actions and unitary representations of locally compact groups. For…

Two non-discrete Hausdorff group topologies $\tau, \delta$ on a group $G$ are called {\it transversal} if the least upper bound $\tau\vee \delta$ of $\tau$ and $\delta$ is the discrete topology. In this paper, we discuss the existence of…
