We construct a finitely presented group with property (T) which can not act on on reasonable spaces. Such group is constructed using an generalization of Hall embedding theorem, where property (T) is added at the expense of weakening the…

Let w be a group-word. Suppose that the set of all w-values in a profinite group G is contained in a union of countably many cosets of subgroups. We are concerned with the question to what extent the structure of the verbal subgroup w(G)…

Coset incidence geometries, introduced by Jacques Tits, provide a versatile framework for studying the interplay between group theory and geometry. In this article, we build upon that idea by extending classical group-theoretic…

The residual closure of a subgroup $H$ of a group $G$ is the intersection of all virtually normal subgroups of $G$ containing $H$. We show that if $G$ is generated by finitely many cosets of $H$ and if $H$ is commensurated, then the…

We prove a version of Grothendieck's descent theorem on an `enriched' principal fiber bundle, a principal fiber bundle with an action of a larger group scheme. Using this, we prove the isomorphisms of the equivariant Picard and the class…

Let M be a graph manifold. We prove that fundamental groups of embedded incompressible surfaces in M are separable in the fundamental group of M, and that the double cosets for crossing surfaces are also separable. We deduce that if there…

Two basic results on the S-rings over an abelian group are the Schur theorem on multipliers and the Wielandt theorem on primitive S-rings over groups with a cyclic Sylow subgroup. None of these theorems is directly generalized to the…

A result of H.-W. Wiesbrock is extended from the case of a common cyclic and separating vector for the half-sided modular inclusion of von Neumann algebras to the case of a common faithful normal semifinite weight and at the same time a gap…

In this paper, two parallel notions of convexity of sets are introduced in the abelian semigroup setting. The connection of these notions to algebraic and to set-theoretic operations is investigated. A formula for the computation of the…

We introduce a method that produces a bijection between the posets ${\rm silt-}{A}$ and ${\rm silt-}{B}$ formed by the isomorphism classes of basic silting complexes over finite-dimensional $k$-algebras $A$ and $B$, by lifting $A$ and $B$…

We prove that cubulated hyperbolic groups are virtually special. The proof relies on results of Haglund and Wise which also imply that they are linear groups, and quasi-convex subgroups are separable. A consequence is that closed hyperbolic…

The Solomon-Tits theorem says that the poset of proper non-trivial subspaces of a finite-dimensional vector space has realisation equivalent to a wedge of spheres. In this paper we prove a variant of this result for collections of geodesic…

H.Furstenberg and E.Glasner proved that for an arbitrary $k\in\mathbb{N}$, any piecewise syndetic set of integers contains a $k$-term arithmetic progression and the collection of such progressions is itself piecewise syndetic in…

We produce group structures on certain sets of topological vector bundles of fixed rank. In particular, we put a group structure on complex rank $2$ bundles on $\mathbb{C}P^3$ with fixed first Chern class. We show that this binary operation…

Let A and B be subsets of an elementary abelian 2-group G, none of which are contained in a coset of a proper subgroup. Extending onto potentially distinct summands a result of Hennecart and Plagne, we show that if |A+B|<|A|+|B|, then…

In the spirit of an earlier result of M\"uller on the Heisenberg group we prove a restriction theorem on a certain class of two step nilpotent Lie groups. Our result extends that of M\"uller also in the framework of the Heisenberg group.

Bowditch showed that a one-ended hyperbolic group which is not a triangle group splits over a two-ended group if and only if its boundary has a local cut point. As a corollary one obtains that splittings of hyperbolic groups over two-ended…

Groups with a large $p$-subgroup, $p$ a prime, include almost all of the groups of Lie type in characteristic $p$ and so the study of such groups adds to our understanding of the finite simple groups. In this article we study a special…

We show that the Schur multiplier of a Noetherian group need not be finitely generated. We prove that the non-abelian tensor product of a polycyclic (resp. polycyclic-by-finite) group and a Noetherian group, is a polycyclic (resp.…

Given a finite abelian group $G$ and cyclic subgroups $A$, $B$, $C$ of $G$ of the same order, we find necessary and sufficient conditions for $A$, $B$, $C$ to admit a common transversal for the cosets they afford. For an arbitrary number of…
