In this paper we study the \'etale cohomology groups associated to abelian varieties. We obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for an abelian variety to have semistable reduction (or purely additive reduction which becomes semistable…

We start by studying the distribution of (cyclically reduced) elements of the free groups Fn with respect to their abelianization (or equivalently, their integer homology class. We derive an explicit generating function, and a limiting…

In this article we present an extensive survey on the developments in the theory of non-abelian finite groups with abelian automorphism groups, and pose some problems and further research directions.

When p divides the ordering of Galois group, the distribution of the Sylow p-subgroup of Cl(K) is closely related to the problem of counting fields with certain specifications. Moreover, different orderings of number fields affect the…

We present a theoretical algorithm which, given any finite presentation of a group as input, will terminate with answer yes if and only if the group is large. We then implement a practical version of this algorithm using Magma and apply it…

We present a metric condition ${\LARGE{\tau}}'$ which describes the geometry of classical small cancellation groups and applies also to other known classes of groups such as two-dimensional Artin groups. We prove that presentations…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $\alpha(G)=\frac{|C(G)|}{|G|}$\,, where $C(G)$ denotes the set of cyclic subgroups of $G$. In this short note, we prove that $\alpha(G)\leq\alpha(Z(G))$ and we describe the groups $G$ for which the equality…

We determine the abelianization of the symmetric mapping class group of a double unbranched cover using the Riemann theta constant, Schottky theta constant, and the theta multiplier. We also give lower bounds of the abelianizations of some…

We study finite abelian groups acting on three-dimensional rationally connected varieties. We concentrate on the groups of K3 type, that is, abelian extensions by a cyclic group of groups that faithfully act on a K3 surface. In particular,…

Adding two generators and one arbitrary relator to a nontrivial torsion-free group, we always obtain an SQ-universal group. In the course of the proof of this theorem, we obtain some other results of independent interest. For instance,…

We define a determinant on the group of automorphisms of non-trivial Severi-Brauer surfaces over a perfect field. Using the generators and relations, we extend this determinant to birational maps between Severi-Brauer surfaces. Using this…

We compute a presentation of the fundamental group of a higher-rank graph using a coloured graph description of higher-rank graphs developed by the third author. We compute the fundamental groups of several examples from the literature. Our…

Let $A$ be a set and $f:A\rightarrow A$ a bijective function. Necessary and sufficient conditions on $f$ are determined which makes it possible to endow $A$ with a binary operation $*$ such that $(A,*)$ is a cyclic group and $f\in…

Astonishing new discoveries with quartets and octets of cyclic cubic fields sharing a common conductor are presented. Four kinds of graphs describing cubic residue conditions among the prime divisors of the conductor enforce elementary bi-…

In this paper we study virtual rational Betti numbers of a nilpotent-by-abelian group $G$, where the abelianization $N/N'$ of its nilpotent part $N$ satisfies certain tameness property. More precisely, we prove that if $N/N'$ is…

In this paper we study the satisfiability and solutions of group equations when combinatorial, algebraic and language-theoretic constraints are imposed on the solutions. We show that the solutions to equations with length, lexicographic…

An approach to a classification of groups generated by 3-state automata over a 2-letter alphabet and the current progress in this direction are presented. Several results related to the whole class are formulated. In particular, all finite,…

We classify the irreducible representations of smooth, connected affine algebraic groups over a field, by tackling the case of pseudo-reductive groups. We reduce the problem of calculating the dimension for pseudo-split pseudo-reductive…

Let $f:X\to Y$ be a finite ramified Galois covering of algebraic varieties defined over the complex numbers. In this paper, we prove some structure theorems for such coverings in the case that the non-abelian Galois group of the cover is…

We study the properties of groups that have presentations in which the square of each generator gives the identity and all relations are of even length. We consider the parabolic subgroups of such a group and show that every element has a…
