We introduce an extension of the (tame) polynomial automorphism group over finite fields: the profinite (tame) polynomial automorphism group, which is obtained by putting a natural topology on the automorphism group. We show that most known…

The article focuses on a class of second countable groups assembled from profinite and discrete by elementary operations. We focus on a rank associated with these groups that measure their complexity, the decomposition rank. A collection of…

We study gradings by abelian groups on associative algebras with involution over an arbitrary field. Of particular importance are the fine gradings (that is, those that do not admit a proper refinement), because any grading on a…

For a finite group $G$, we introduce a generalization of norm relations in the group algebra $\mathbb Q[G]$. We give necessary and sufficient criteria for the existence of such relations and apply them to obtain relations between the…

We prove that a commutative parasemifield S is additively idempotent provided that it is finitely generated as a semiring. Consequently, every proper commutative semifield T that is finitely generated as a semiring is either additively…

As a consequence of the classification of finite simple groups, the classification of permutation groups of prime degree is complete, apart from the question of when the natural degree $(q^n-1)/(q-1)$ of ${\rm L}_n(q)$ is prime. We present…

We define a numerical quasi-isometry invariant of a finitely generated group, whose values parametrize the difference between the group being uniformly embeddable in a Hilbert space and the reduced C*-algebra of the group being exact.

We complete the quasi-isometric classification of irreducible lattices in semisimple Lie groups over nondiscrete locally compact fields of characteristic zero by showing that any quasi-isometry of a rank one S-arithmetic lattice in a…

Using the action of the Galois group of a normal extension of number fields, we generalize and symmetrize various fundamental statements in algebra and algebraic number theory concerning splitting types of prime ideals, factorization types…

We introduce the notion of uniform exactness, or uniform amenability at infinity, for discrete groups and prove it for a wide class of groups containing free groups and their limit groups. This shows a novel strong convergence phenomenon…

This paper is an extension of the work of Dummit and Voight on modeling the 2-Selmer group of number fields. We extend their model to $S_n$-number fields of even degree and develop heuristics on the difference in the 2-ranks between the…

We define a covering of a profinite graph to be a projective limit of a system of covering maps of finite graphs. With this notion of covering, we develop a covering theory for profinite graphs which is in many ways analogous to the…

Predictors map individual instances in a population to the interval $[0,1]$. For a collection $\mathcal C$ of subsets of a population, a predictor is multi-calibrated with respect to $\mathcal C$ if it is simultaneously calibrated on each…

We give a complete list of the one-dimensional groups definable in algebraically closed valued fields and i the pseudo-local fields, up to a finite index subgroup and a quotient by a finite subgroup.

Let $\mathfrak C$ be a class of finite groups which is closed for subgroups, quotients and direct products. Given a profinite group $G$ and an element $x\in G$, we denote by $P_{\mathfrak{C}}(x,G)$ the probability that $x$ and a randomly…

We say that a group $G$ is of \textit{profinite type} if it can be realized as a Galois group of some field extension. Using Krull's theory, this is equivalent to the ability of $G$ to be equipped with a profinite topology. We also say that…

Given a generic semidefinite program, specified by matrices with rational entries, each coordinate of its optimal solution is an algebraic number. We study the degree of the minimal polynomials of these algebraic numbers. Geometrically,…

A generalized numerical semigroup is a submonoid $S$ of $\mathbb{N}^d$ with finite complement in it. We characterize isomorphisms between these monoids in terms of permutation of coordinates. Considering the equivalence relation that…

The computation of the normaliser of a permutation group in the full symmetric group is an important and hard problem in computational group theory. This article reports on an algorithm that builds a descending chain of overgroups to…

We develop different formulas of algebraic and/or arithmetic nature allowing an explicit calculation, both over a finite field and over a field of characteristic 0, of the algebraic part of the unramified Brauer group of a homogeneous space…
