We study the automorphism groups of countable homogeneous directed graphs (and some additional homogeneous structures) from the point of view of topological dynamics. We determine precisely which of these automorphism groups are amenable…
Let $G$ be a closed highly homogeneous subgroup of $S_{\infty}$ not involving circular orderings. We show that the closure of a conjugacy class from $G$ contains a conjugacy class which is comeagre in it. Furthermore, we show that the…
Coarse geometry is the study of large-scale properties of spaces. In this paper we study group coarse structures (i.e., coarse structures on groups that agree with the algebraic structures), by using group ideals. We introduce a large class…
Using the natural action of $S_\infty$ we show that a countable hereditary class $\mathcal C$ of finitely generated structures has the joint embedding property (JEP) and the weak amalgamation property (WAP) if and only if there is a…
We show that the automorphism groups of certain countable structures obtained using the Hrushovski amalgamation method are simple groups. The structures we consider are the 'uncollapsed' structures of infinite Morley rank obtained by the ab…
In this article we study the construction of characteristic classes for principal $G$-bundles equipped with an additional structure called transitionally commutative structure (TC structure). These structures classify, up to homotopy,…
We show that in algebraically locally finite countable homogeneous structures with a free stationary independence relation the small index property implies the strong small index property. We use this and the main result of [15] to deduce…
We investigate the automorphism groups of $\aleph\_0$-categorical structures and prove that they are exactly the Roelcke precompact Polish groups. We show that the theory of a structure is stable if and only if every Roelcke uniformly…
Reidemeister numbers of group automorphisms encode the number of twisted conjugacy classes of groups and might yield information about self-maps of spaces related to the given objects. Here we address a question posed by Gon\c{c}alves and…
We establish a structure theorem for the connected automorphism groups of smooth complete toroidal horospherical varieties, that is, toric fibrations over rational homogeneous spaces. The key ingredient is a characterization of the Demazure…
The paper relates character value of an irreducible representation of a compact connected Lie group at certain elements of finite order with the dimension of a representation on another group, up to some precise constants, which all have…
It is conjectured by Ibrahim Assem, Ralf Schiffler and Vasilisa Shramchenko in "Cluster Automorphisms and Compatibility of Cluster Variables" that every cluster algebra is unistructural, that is to say, that the set of cluster variables…
A general overview of the phenomenon of automatic continuity of homomorphisms between Polish groups is given. In particular, we study variants and improvements of the closed graph theorem, applying these to the problem of continuity of…
We show that the theories of partially ordered sets, lattices, semilattices, Boolean algebras, Heyting algebras with a further coarser partial order, or a linearization, or an auxiliary relation have the strong amalgamation property,…
We provide a comprehensive development of the basics of descriptive set theory for non-separable complete metric spaces whose weight is a singular cardinal $\lambda$ of countable confinality. Somewhat unexpectedly, the resulting theory is…
Let $D$ be a large category which is cocomplete. We construct a model structure (in the sense of Quillen) on the category of small functors from $D$ to simplicial sets. As an application we construct homotopy localization functors on the…
We overview a number of precise notions for a holomorphic automorphism group to be big together with their implications, in particular we give an exposition of the notions of flexibility and of density property. These studies have their…
Many non-locally compact second countable groups admit a comeagre conjugacy class. For example, this is the case for the automorphism group of the rational order and the automorphism group of the random graph [Truss]. A. Kechris and C.…
Using a categorial version of Fra\"iss\'e's theorem due to Droste and G\"obel, we derive a criterion for a comma-category to have universal homogeneous objects. As a first application we give new existence result for universal structures…
We develop a representation theory of categories as a means to explore characteristic structures in algebra. Characteristic structures play a critical role in isomorphism testing of groups and algebras, and their construction and…
