We investigate the orderability properties of fundamental groups of 3-dimensional manifolds. Many 3-manifold groups support left-invariant orderings, including all compact P^2-irreducible manifolds with positive first Betti number. For…

We show that a residual set of non-degenerate IETs on more than 3 letters is topologically mixing. This shows that there exists a uniquely ergodic topologically mixing IET. This is then applied to show that some billiard flows in a fixed…

Flexible mechanical metamaterials possess repeating structural motifs that imbue them with novel, exciting properties including programmability, anomalous elastic moduli and nonlinear and robust response. We address such structures via…

We show that in general for a given group the structure of a maximal hyperbolic tower over a free group is not canonical: We construct examples of groups having hyperbolic tower structures over free subgroups which have arbitrarily large…

This book studies ultrafilters on connectivity systems, that is, on pairs \((X,f)\) where \(X\) is a finite set and \(f:2^{X}\to \mathbb{N}\) is a symmetric submodular function. Ultrafilters, which play a fundamental role in topology and…

There are many Lie groups used in physics, including the Lorentz group of special relativity, the spin groups (relativistic and non-relativistic) and the gauge groups of quantum electrodynamics and the weak and strong nuclear forces.…

We describe right-hand skew Boolean algebras in terms of a class of presheaves of sets over Boolean algebras called Boolean sets, and prove a duality theorem between Boolean sets and etale spaces over Boolean spaces.

This is an almost self-contained monograph (containing some new results) on left-orderable groups which mostly rely on dynamical and probabilistic aspects, but also on geometric, combinatorial, analytic, and topological ones. This new…

We use information theory to study recovering sets $\R_L$ and strongly cancellative sets $\C_L$ on different lattices. These sets are special classes of recovering pairs and cancellative sets previously discussed in [1], [3] and [5]. We…

For several instances of metric largeness like enlargeability or having hyperspherical universal covers, we construct non-large vector subspaces in the rational homology of finitely generated groups. The functorial properties of this…

This survey is focused on the results related to topologies on the groups of transformations in ergodic theory, Borel, and Cantor dynamics. Various topological properties (density, connectedness, genericity) of these groups and their…

Formal orbifolds are defined in higher dimension. Their \'etale fundamental groups are also defined. It is shown that the fundamental groups of formal orbifolds have certain finiteness property and it is also shown that they can be used to…

We will review the main results concerning the automorphism groups of saturated structures which were obtained during the two last decades. The main themes are: the small index property in the countable and uncountable cases; the…

We describe an example of a $C^\infty$ diffeomorphism on a 7--manifold which has a compact invariant set such that uncountably many of its connected components are pseudocircles. (Any 7--manifold will suffice.) Furthermore, any…

Starting from filters over the set of indices, we introduce structures in a product of sets where the coordinate sets have the given structures.

Statistical Topology emerged since topological aspects continue to gain importance in many areas of physics. It is most desirable to study topological invariants and their statistics in schematic models that facilitate the identification of…

We present a general result about generating group topologies by pseudo-norms. Namely, we show that if a topology has a base of sets which are closed in a certain sense, then it can be generated by a collection of pseudo-norms such that the…

We show that free-by-free groups satisfying a homological criterion, which we call excessive homology, are incoherent. This class is large in nature, including many examples of hyperbolic and non-hyperbolic free-by-free groups. We apply…

Given the interest in relating the large $N$ limit of SU(N) to groups of area-preserving diffeomorphisms, we consider the topologies of these groups and show that both in terms of homology and homotopy, they are extremely different. Similar…

We consider the topology of simplicial complexes with vertices the points of a random point process and faces determined by distance relationships between the vertices. In particular, we study the Betti numbers of these complexes as the…
