We introduce the notion of a quandle with a good involution and its homology groups. Carter et al. defined quandle cocycle invariants for oriented links and oriented surface-links. By use of good involutions, quandle cocyle invariants can…

In order to study certain algebraic objects, and notably algebraic groups, Serre introduced the notion on invariants, in particular cohomological invariants. The construction of non-trivial cohomological invariants of algebraic groups is an…

Let $\widehat{\mathcal{C}}_{\mathbb{Z}}$ denote the group of knots in homology spheres that bound homology balls, modulo smooth concordance in homology cobordisms. Answering a question of Matsumoto, the second author previously showed that…

We define an integer-valued invariant of special cube complexes called the genus, and prove that having genus one characterizes special cube complexes with abelian fundamental group. Using the genus, we obtain a new proof that the…

We discuss the relationship between (co)homology groups and categorical diagonalization. We consider the category of chain complexes in the category of finitely generated free modules on a commutative ring. For a fixed chain complex with…

Cohomology for actions of free abelian groups on the Cantor set has (when endowed with an order structure) provided a complete invariance for orbit equivalence. In this paper, we study a particular class of actions of such groups called…

An integral homology theory on the category of undirected reflexive graphs was constructed in [2]. A geometrical method to understand behaviors of $1$- and $2$-simplices under differential maps of the theory was developed in [3] and led us…

How hard is it to fill a loop in a Cayley graph with an unoriented surface? Following a comment of Gromov in "Asymptotic invariants of infinite groups", we define homological filling functions of groups with coefficients in a group $R$. Our…

Consider a complex algebraic group $G$ acting on a smooth variety $M$ with finitely many orbits, and let $\Omega$ be an orbit. The following three invariants of $\Omega\subset M$ can be characterized axiomatically: (1) the equivariant…

Given a general finite group $G$, there are various finite categories whose cohomology theories are of great interests. Recently Balmer and Grodal gave some new characterizations of the groups of endotrivial modules, via \v{C}ech cohomology…

In this paper, we consider semigroup actions of discrete countable semigroups on compact spaces by surjective local homeomorphisms. We introduce notions of continuous one-sided orbit equivalence and continuous orbit equivalence for…

The group of 2-by-2 matrices with integer entries and determinant $\pm > 1$ can be identified either with the group of outer automorphisms of a rank two free group or with the group of isotopy classes of homeomorphisms of a 2-dimensional…

Carnot groups are distinguished spaces that are rich of structure: they are those Lie groups equipped with a path distance that is invariant by left-translations of the group and admit automorphisms that are dilations with respect to the…

This expository article is an introduction to the adjoint orbits of complex semisimple groups, primarily in the algebro-geometric and Lie-theoretic contexts, and with a pronounced emphasis on the properties of semisimple and nilpotent…

We deal with compact K\"ahler manifolds $M$ acted on by a compact Lie group $K$ of isometries, whose complexification $K^\C$ has exactly one open and one closed orbit in $M$. If the $K$-action is Hamiltonian, we obtain results on the…

In this paper we will refine Sacksteder's theorem for groups of orientation-preserving homeomorphisms of the circle in the case that there exists a finite orbit set. We will give a categorization of the topological possibilities for the…

Let $G$ be a group. The orbits of the natural action of Aut$(G)$ on $G$ are called ``automorphism orbits'' of $G$, and the number of automorphism orbits of $G$ is denoted by $\omega(G)$. We prove that if $G$ is a soluble group with finite…

This article studies the group generated by automorphisms of the projective space of dimension $n$ and by the standard birational involution of degree $n$. Every element of this group only contracts rational hypersurfaces, but in odd…

We present a strong connection between quantum information and quantum permutation groups. Specifically, we define a notion of quantum isomorphisms of graphs based on quantum automorphisms from the theory of quantum groups, and then show…

For a germ of a quasihomogeneous function with an isolated critical point at the origin invariant with respect to an appropriate action of a finite abelian group, H. Fan, T. Jarvis, and Y. Ruan defined the so-called quantum cohomology…
