Suppose L is a relational language and P in L is a unary predicate. If M is an L-structure then P(M) is the L-structure formed as the substructure of M with domain {a: M models P(a)}. Now suppose T is a complete first order theory in L with…

Let $R$ be a semilocal principal ideal domain. Two algebraic objects over $R$ in which scalar extension makes sense (e.g. quadratic spaces) are said to be of the same genus if they become isomorphic after extending scalars to all…

For each finite classical group $G$, we classify the subgroups of $G$ which act transitively on a $G$-invariant set of subspaces of the natural module, where the subspaces are either totally isotropic or nondegenerate. Our proof uses the…

Let $T$ be the theory of dense cyclically ordered sets with at least two elements. We determine the classifying space of $\mathsf{Mod}(T)$ to be homotopically equivalent to $\mathbb{CP}^\infty$. In particular,…

Let $G$ be a reductive group over a number field $F$, which is split at a finite place $\mathfrak{p}$ of $F$, and let $\pi$ be a cuspidal automorphic representation of $G$, which is cohomological with respect to the trivial coefficient…

We prove that for every countable ordinal $\xi$, the Tsirelson's space $T_\xi$ of order $\xi$, is naturally, i.e., via the identity, $3$-isomorphc to its modified version. For the first step, we prove that the Schreier family…

We define a new variety of loops we call $\Gamma$-loops. After showing $\Gamma$-loops are power associative, our main goal will be showing a categorical isomorphism between Bruck loops of odd order and $\Gamma$-loops of odd order. Once this…

We adapt a proof of Lascar in order to show the simplicity of the group of automorphisms fixing pointwise all non-generic elements for a class of uncountable models of suitable theories, encompassing both strongly minimal theories as well…

Let $G$ be a simply-connected, simple compact Lie group of type $\{n_{1},\ldots,n_{\ell}\}$, where $n_{1}\le\cdots \le n_{\ell}$. Let $\mathcal{G}_k$ be the gauge group of the principal $G$-bundle (namedright{P}{}{S^{4}}) whose isomorphism…

We study topologization of the semigroup $\mathscr{O\!\!I}\!_n(L)$ of finite partial order isomorphisms of a bounded rank of an infinite linear ordered set $(L,\leqslant)$. In particular we show that every $T_1$ left-topological…

For a rosy theory, we give a canonical surjective homomorphism from a Lascar group over $A=\acl^{eq}(A)$ to a first homology group of a strong type over $A$, and we describe its kernel by an invariant equivalence relation. As a consequence,…

Let $M$ be an irreducible smooth projective variety, defined over an algebraically closed field, equipped with an action of a connected reductive affine algebraic group $G$, and let ${\mathcal L}$ be a $G$--equivariant very ample line…

In this paper we describe all groups that are first-order (elementarily) equivalent to the classical matrix groups such as $GL_n(F), SL_n(F)$ and $T_n(F)$ over a field $F$ provided $n \geq 3$.

We show that the category $L\textbf{-Top}_{0}$ of $T_{0}$-$L$-topological spaces is the epireflective hull of Sierpinski $L$-topological space in the category $L\textbf{-Top}$ of $L$-topological spaces and the category $L\textbf{-Sob}$ of…

This work can be thought as a contribution to the model theory of group extensions. We study the groups G which are interpretable in the disjoint union of two structures (seen as a two-sorted structure). We show that if one of the two…

We describe a pretorsion theory in the category $Cat$ of small categories: the torsion objects are the groupoids, while the torsion-free objects are the skeletal categories, i.e., those categories in which every isomorphism is an…

Generalizing the $\omega$-categorical context, we introduce a notion, which we call the Lascar Property, that allows for a fine analysis of the topological isomorphisms between automorphism groups of countable structures satisfying this…

Let $E/\mathbb{Q}$ be a totally real number field that is Galois over $\mathbb{Q}$, and let $\pi$ be a cuspidal, nondihedral automorphic representation of $\mathrm{GL}_2(\mathbb{A}_E)$ that is in the lowest weight discrete series at every…

T-convergence groups is a natural extension of lattice-valued topological groups, which is a newly introduced mathematical structure. In this paper, we will further explore the theory of T-convergence groups. The main results include: (1)…
