We show that for any discrete semigroup $X$ the semigroup operation can be extended to a right-topological semigroup operation on the space $G(X)$ of inclusion hyperspaces on $X$. We detect some important subsemigroups of $G(X)$, study the…

We describe an algorithm that constructs a list of all topological types of holomorphic actions of a finite group on a compact Riemann surface $C$ of genus at least $g \geq 2$ with $C/G \cong \mathbb{P}^1$.

We introduce and study the notion of a chain group of homeomorphisms of a one-manifold, which is a certain generalization of Thompson's group $F$. The resulting class of groups exhibits a combination of uniformity and diversity. On the one…

Finding necessary and sufficient conditions for isomorphism between two semigroups of order-preserving transformations over an infinite domain with restricted range was an open problem in \cite{FHQS}. In this paper, we show a proof strategy…

We extend to the critical (intermediate) regularity several results concerning rigidity for centralizers and group actions on the interval.

We introduce the notion of semigroup with a tight ideal series and investigate their closures in semitopological semigroups, particularly inverse semigroups with continuous inversion. As a corollary we show that the symmetric inverse…

For a path connected, locally path connected and semilocally simply connected space $X$, let $\Pi_1(X)$ denote its topologised fundamental groupoid as established in the first article of this series. Let $\mathcal{E}$ be the category of…

Let $A$ be the ring of elements in an algebraic function field $K$ over a finite field $F_q$ which are integral outside a fixed place $\infty$. In an earlier paper we have shown that the Drinfeld modular group $G=GL_2(A)$ has automorphisms…

We study actions of linear algebraic groups on central simple algebras using algebro-geometric techniques. Suppose an algebraic group G acts on a central simple algebra A of degree n. We are interested in questions of the following type:…

We give an equivalent characterisation for the existence of a semi-conjugacy to an irrational rotation for conservative homeomorphisms of the two-torus. This leads to an analogue of Poincare's classification of circle homeomorphisms for…

Let $(\varphi_t)$, $(\phi_t)$ be two one-parameter semigroups of holomorphic self-maps of the unit disc $\mathbb D\subset \mathbb C$. Let $f:\mathbb D \to \mathbb D$ be a homeomorphism. We prove that, if $f \circ \phi_t=\varphi_t \circ f$…

We characterize the respective semigroups of mappings that preserve, or that preserve or reverse orientation of a finite cycle, in terms of their actions on oriented triples and oriented quadruples. This leads to a proof that the latter…

We give a new categorical approach to the Halmos-von Neumann theorem for actions of general topological groups. As a first step, we establish that the categories of topological and measure-preserving irreducible systems with discrete…

A hyperbolic group acts by homeomorphisms on its Gromov boundary. We show that if this boundary is a topological n-sphere the action is topologically stable in the dynamical sense: any nearby action is semi-conjugate to the standard…

We consider finitely generated groups of real-analytic circle diffeomorphisms. We show that if such a group admits an exceptional minimal set (i.e., a minimal invariant Cantor set), then its Lebesgue measure is zero; moreover, there are…

In this paper we prove that every automorphism of the semigroup of invertible matrices with nonnegative elements over a linearly oredered associative ring on some specially defined subgroup concides with the composition of an inner…

We build a faithful action of Higman's group on the line by homeomorphisms, answering a question of Yves de Cornulier. As a by-product we obtain many quasimorphisms from the Higman group into the reals. We also show that every action by…

In this paper a study of $G$-minimality, i.e., minimality of four-manifolds equipped with an action of a finite group $G$, is initiated. We focus on cyclic actions on $CP^2\# \overline{CP^2}$, and our work shows that even in this simple…

We investigate actions of cyclic groups on polynomial rings with two variables, and the minimal free resolution of the corresponding invariant ring. In particular, we fully classify several cases, including the case the defining ideal has…

In this paper we study quasi-symmetric conjugations of $C^2$ weakly order-preserving circle maps with a flat interval. Under the assumption that the maps have the same rotation number of bounded type and that bounded geometry holds we…
