In this article we prove that the full automorphism group of a cyclic $p$-gonal pseudo-real Riemann surface of genus $g$ is either a semidirect product $C_{n}\ltimes C_{p}$ or a cyclic group, where $p$ is a prime $>2$ and $g>(p-1)^{2}$. We…

Let $\psi$ be a permutation of a finite set $X$. We define $\lambda(\psi)$ to be the largest fraction of elements of $X$ lying on a single cycle of $\psi$. For a finite group $G$, we define $\lambda(G)$ to be the maximum among the values…

For a complex surface of general type with a relatively minimal genus 2 fibration, the bounds of the orders of the automorphism group of the fibration, of its abelian subgroups and of its cyclic subgroups are determined as linear functions…

We give here the exact maximal subgroup growth of two classes of polycyclic groups. Let $G_k = \langle x_1, x_2, ..., x_k \mid x_ix_jx_i^{-1}x_j \text{ for all } i < j \rangle$. So $G_k = \mathbb{Z} \rtimes (\mathbb{Z} \rtimes (\mathbb{Z}…

We identify the groups $PSU_6(2)$, $PSU_6(2):2$, $PSU_6(2):3$ and $Aut(PSU_6(2))$ from the structure of the centralizer of an element of order 3.

We introduce a recursive method to deconstruct the automorphism group of an ordered set. By connecting this method with deep results for permutation groups, we prove the Automorphism Conjecture for ordered sets of width less than or equal…

We classify closed abelian subgroups of the simple groups $G_2$, $F_4$, $Aut(so(8))$ having centralizer the same dimension as the dimension of the subgroup, as well as finite abelian subgroups of certain spin and half-spin groups having…

We construct irreducible hyperfinite subfactors of index 6 with a prescribed fundamental group from a large family containing all countable and many uncountable subgroups of R_+. We also prove that there are unclassifiably many irreducible…

Four $\ZZ_+$-bigraded complexes with the action of the exceptional infinite-dimensional Lie superalgebra E(3,6) are constructed. We show that all the images and cokernels and all but three kernels of the differentials are irreducible…

We prove that the reduced C*-algebras of centerless mapping class groups and outer automorphism groups of free groups are simple, as are the irreducible pure subgroups of mapping class groups and the analogous subgroups of outer…

We give a survey of recent results related to the problem of characterizing finite-dimensional division algebras by the set of isomorphism classes of their maximal subfields. We also discuss various generalizations of this problem and some…

We use topological methods to study the maximal subgroups of the free idempotent generated semigroup on a biordered set. We use these to give an example of a free idempotent generated semigroup with maximal subgroup isomorphic to the free…

It has been recently proved that the automorphism group of a minimal subshift with non-superlinear word complexity is virtually $\mathbb{Z}$ [DDPM15, CK15]. In this article we extend this result to a broader class proving that the…

This text brings to an end the classification of non-reduced parabolic subgroups in positive characteristic, especially two and three: they are all obtained as intersections of parabolics having maximal reduced part. We prove this result…

We initiate a systematic study of the perfection of affine group schemes of finite type over fields of positive characteristic. The main result intrinsically characterises and classifies the perfections of reductive groups, and obtains a…

A hypergroup is called an elementary abelian 2-hypergroup if it is a constrained direct product of the closed subsets of two elements. In this paper, the elementary abelian 2-hypergroups are studied. All closed subsets and all strongly…

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 that every locally compact second countable group $G$ arises as the outer automorphism group Out $M$ of a II$_1$ factor, which was so far only known for totally disconnected groups, compact groups and a few isolated examples. We…

This paper investigates the maximal subgroups of a free projection-generated regular $*$-semigroup $PG(P)$ over a projection algebra $P$, and their relationship to the maximal subgroups of the free idempotent-generated semigroup $IG(E)$…

For any abstract subfactor planar algebra $P$, there exists a finite index extremal subfactor $M_0 \subset M_1$ with $P$ as its standard invariant. In this paper, we classify the automorphism group of a bipartite graph planar algebra, and…
