For a group G relatively hyperbolic to a family of residually finite groups satisfying the Farrell-Jones conjecture, we reduce the solution of the Farrell-Jones conjecture for G to the case of certain nice cyclic extensions in G.

We prove that if $G$ is a finite simple group which is the unit group of a ring, then $G$ is isomorphic to either (a) a cyclic group of order 2; (b) a cyclic group of prime order $2^k -1$ for some $k$; or (c) a projective special linear…

We prove the numerical Hodge standard conjecture for the square of a simple abelian variety of prime dimension, and also in some related cases.

We prove that the automorphism groups of simple polarized abelian varieties of odd prime dimension over finite fields are cyclic, and give a complete list of finite groups that can be realized as such automorphism groups.

We prove an extension of the Moore-Schmidt theorem on the triviality of the first cohomology class of cocycles for the action of an arbitrary discrete group on an arbitrary measure space and for cocycles with values in an arbitrary compact…

The moving lemma of Suslin states that a cycle on $X\times \mathbb{A} ^n$ meeting all faces properly can be moved so that it becomes equidimensional over $\mathbb{A}^n$. This leads to an isomorphism of motivic Borel-Moore homology and…

Let $G$ be a finite primitive permutation group on a set $\Omega$ with nontrivial point stabilizer $G_{\alpha}$. We say that $G$ is extremely primitive if $G_{\alpha}$ acts primitively on each of its orbits in $\Omega \setminus \{\alpha\}$.…

We observe an inductive structure in a large class of Artin groups and exploit this information to deduce the Farrell-Jones isomorphism conjecture for several classes of Artin groups of finite real, complex and affine types.

We consider the Zassenhaus conjecture for the normalized unit group of the integral group ring of the Mathieu sporadic group M12. As a consequence, we confirm for this group the Kimmerle's conjecture on prime graphs.

In this paper we propose a generalization of the Kontsevich--Soibelman conjecture on the degeneration of Hochschild-to-cyclic spectral sequence for smooth and compact DG category. Our conjecture states identical vanishing of a certain map…

We prove by using simple number-theoretic arguments formulae concerning the number of elements of a fixed order and the number of cyclic subgroups of a direct product of several finite cyclic groups. We point out that certain multiplicative…

We prove Chern class equalities for abelian families with a holomorphic normal projective connection.

The spectrum of a finite group is the set of its element orders, and two groups are said to be isospectral if they have the same spectra. A finite group $G$ is said to be recognizable by spectrum, if every finite group isospectral with $G$…

We use the Bateman--Horn Conjecture from number theory to give strong evidence of a positive answer to Peter Neumann's question, whether there are infinitely many simple groups of order a product of six primes. (Those with fewer than six…

A finite group is said to be weakly separable if every algebraic isomorphism between two $S$-rings over this group is induced by a combinatorial isomorphism. In the paper we prove that every abelian weakly separable group belongs to one of…

Groups definable in simple theories retain the chain conditions and decomposition properties known from stable groups, up to commensurability. In the small case, if a generic type of G is not foreign to some type q, there is a q-internal…

A group is $\frac{3}{2}$-generated if every non-identity element is contained in a generating pair. A conjecture of Breuer, Guralnick and Kantor from 2008 asserts that a finite group is $\frac{3}{2}$-generated if and only if every proper…

We say that a finite almost simple $G$ with socle $S$ is admissible (with respect to the spectrum) if $G$ and $S$ have the same sets of orders of elements. Let $L$ be a finite simple linear or unitary group of dimension at least three over…

Abstract. We address the conjecture which states that an intersection of parabolic subgroups of an Artin-Tits group is a parabolic subgroup. We prove that the conjecture is equivalent to a, a priori, weaker conjecture. We also prove the…

In the representation theory of finite groups, there is a well-known and important conjecture, due to Brou\'e saying that for any prime p, if a p-block A of a finite group G has an abelian defect group P, then A and its Brauer corresponding…
