We investigate the semigroup of invariant types through the lens of Ellis theory; primarily focusing on definably amenable NIP groups. In this context, we observe that the collection of strong right $f$-generic types forms the unique…
Let $G$ be an amenable group. We define and study an algebra $\mathcal{A}_{sn}(G)$, which is related to invariant means on the subnormal subgroups of $G$. For a just infinite amenable group $G$, we show that $\mathcal{A}_{sn}(G)$ is…
Our goal is to find classes of convolution semigroups on Lie groups $G$ that give rise to interesting processes in symmetric spaces $G/K$. The $K$-bi-invariant convolution semigroups are a well-studied example. An appealing direction for…
This article is dedicated to the characterisation of the relative hyperbolicity of Haglund and Wise's special groups. More precise, we introduce a new combinatorial formalism to study (virtually) special groups, and we prove that, given a…
We introduce the notion of an `inverse property' (IP) quandle C which we propose as the right notion of `Lie algebra' in the category of sets. To any IP quandle we construct an associated group G_C. For a class of IP quandles which we call…
Let G be a finite group. The stable module category of G has been applied extensively in group representation theory. In particular, it has been used to great effect that it is a triangulated category which is compactly generated. Let H be…
Let $G$ be a group that is relatively hyperbolic with respect to a collection of subgroups $\{H_{\lambda}\}_{\lambda\in \Lambda}$. Suppose that $G$ is given by a finite relative presentation $\mathcal{P}$ with respect to this collection. We…
There are many deep results on the structure of REGULAR probability measures $P(G)$ on compact/locally compact, Hausdorff topological groups G. See, for instance, the classic monographs by KR Parthasarathy, Ulf Grenander, A.Mukherjea and…
Let g be a semisimple Lie algebra over the real numbers. We describe an explicit combinatorial construction of the real Weyl group of g with respect to a given Cartan subalgebra. An efficient computation of this Weyl group is important for…
In this paper we present several algorithms related with the computation of the homology of groups, from a geometric perspective (that is to say, carrying out the calculations by means of simplicial sets and using techniques of Algebraic…
We give an overview of the Hidden Subgroup Problem (HSP) as of July 2010, including new results discovered since the survey of arXiv:quant-ph/0411037v1. We recall how the problem provides a framework for efficient quantum algorithms and…
Let $k$ be a division ring and let $G$ be either a torsion-free virtually compact special group or a finitely generated torsion-free $3$-manifold group. We embed the group algebra $kG$ in a division ring and prove that the embedding is…
We consider deterministic algorithms for the well-known hidden subgroup problem ($\mathsf{HSP}$): for a finite group $G$ and a finite set $X$, given a function $f:G \to X$ and the promise that for any $g_1, g_2 \in G, f(g_1) = f(g_2)$ iff…
We give several examples of finite groups $G$ for which the rank of the tensor product $\mathbb{Z} \otimes_{\mathbb{Z}\mathrm{Aut}(G)}$ Wh$(G)$ is or is not zero. This is motivated by an earlier theorem of the first author, which implies as…
Given a finitely generated subgroup $H$ of a free group $F$, we present an algorithm which computes $g_1,\ldots,g_m\in F$, such that the set of elements $g\in F$, for which there exists a non-trivial $H$-equation having $g$ as a solution,…
The concept of a C-approximable group, for a class of finite groups C, is a common generalization of the concepts of a sofic, weakly sofic, and linear sofic group. Glebsky raised the question whether all groups are approximable by finite…
Uhlenbeck proved that a set of simple elements generates the group of rational loops in GL(n,C) that satisfy the U(n)-reality condition. For an arbitrary complex reductive group, a choice of representation defines a notion of rationality…
We give a method to describe all congruence images of a finitely generated Zariski dense group $H \leq \mathrm{SL}(n, \mathbb{Z})$. The method is applied to obtain efficient algorithms for solving this problem in odd prime degree $n$; if…
We say that finite groups are isospectral if they have the same sets of orders of elements. It is known that every nonsolvable finite group $G$ isospectral to a finite simple group has a unique nonabelian composition factor, that is, the…
The membership problem for an algebraic structure asks whether a given element is contained in some substructure, which is usually given by generators. In this work we study the membership problem, as well as the conjugacy problem, for…
