Let G be an abelian group and let lambda be the smallest rank of any group whose direct sum with a free group is isomorphic to G. If lambda is uncountable, then G has lambda pairwise disjoint, non-free subgroups. There is an example where…

We prove that two countable locally finite-by-abelian groups G,H endowed with proper left-invariant metrics are coarsely equivalent if and only if their asymptotic dimensions coincide and the groups are either both finitely-generated or…

By a recent result of Juh\'{a}sz and van Mill, a locally compact topological group whose dense subspaces are all separable is metrizable. In this note we investigate the following question: is every locally compact group having all dense…

We obtain an explicit description of the endomorphisms of free-abelian by free groups together with a characterization of when they are injective and surjective. As a consequence we see that free-abelian by free groups are Hopfian and not…

For a given stationary set $S$ of countable ordinals we prove (in $\mathbf{ZFC}$) that the assertion "every $S$-ladder system has $\aleph_0$-uniformization" is equivalent to "every strongly $\aleph_1$-free abelian group of cardinality…

It is proved that, in certain subgroups of direct products of countable groups, the property of being an unconditionally closed set coincides with that of being an algebraic set. In particular, these properties coincide in all Abelian…

Relying on the techniques and ideas from our recent paper [13], we prove several anti-classification results for various rigidity conditions in countable abelian and nilpotent groups. We prove three main theorems: (1) the rigid abelian…

Suppose $G$ is a $\mathcal{T}$-group (finitely generated torsion-free nilpotent) with centralizers outside of the derived subgroup being abelian of rank equal to $\text{rank}(Z_1)+1$. This includes the class of free nilpotent groups…

It is an open problem whether every continuous homomorphism between infinite-dimensional Lie groups is smooth. In this article, we show that every Hoelder continuous homomorphism is smooth.

We show that it is consistent with ZFC that every compact group has a non-Haar-measurable subgroup. In addition, we demonstrate a natural construction, and we conjecture that this construction always produces a non-measurable subgroup of a…

Let \lambda be a cardinal with \lambda=\lambda^{\aleph_0} and p be either 0 or a prime number. We show that there are fields K_0 and K_1 of cardinality \lambda and characteristic p such that the automorphism group of K_0 is a free group of…

We present a series of examples of nondiscrete reflexive P-groups (i.e., groups in which all $G_\delta$-sets are open) as well as noncompact reflexive $\omega$-bounded groups (in which the closure of every countable set is compact). Our…

It is known that every torsion-free abelian group of finite rank has a maximal completely decomposable summand that is unique up to isomorphism. We show that groups of infinite rank need not have maximal completely decomposable summands,…

We investigate effective properties of uncountable free abelian groups. We show that identifying free abelian groups and constructing bases for such groups is often computationally hard, depending on the cardinality. For example, we show,…

We describe structure of quasihomomorphisms from arbitrary groups to discrete groups. We show that all quasihomomorphisms are 'constructible', i.e., are obtained via certain natural operations from homomorphisms to some groups and…

We study stable commutator length on free $\mathbb{Q}$-groups. We prove that every non-identity element has positive stable commutator length, and that the corresponding free group embeds isometrically. We deduce that a non-abelian free…

Suppose that a Lie algebra $L$ admits a finite Frobenius group of automorphisms $FH$ with cyclic kernel $F$ and complement $H$ such that the characteristic of the ground field does not divide $|H|$. It is proved that if the subalgebra…

A group is said to be cube-free if its order is not divisible by the cube of any prime. Let $f_{cf,sol}(n)$ denote the isomorphism classes of solvable cube-free groups of order $n$. We find asymptotic bounds for $f_{cf,sol}(n)$ in this…

We provide new examples of the asymptotic counting for the number of subsets on groups of given size which are free of certain configurations. These examples include sets without solutions to equations in non-abelian groups, and linear…

We prove that every group ring of a non-abelian locally free group which is the union of an ascending sequence of free groups is primitive. In particular, every group ring of a countable non-abelian locally free group is primitive. In…
