We consider the computational problem of determining the unit group of a finite ring, by which we mean the computation of a finite presentation together with an algorithm to express units as words in the generators. We show that the problem…

This note presents an elementary iterative construction of the generators for the complex $K$-groups $K_i(C(\SM^d))$ of the $d$-dimensional spheres. These generators are explicitly given as the restrictions of Dirac or Weyl Hamiltonians to…

A kind of motivic algebra of spectral categories and modules over them is developed to introduce K-motives of algebraic varieties. As an application, bivariant algebraic K-theory as well as bivariant motivic kohomology groups are defined…

We evaluate combinatorially certain connection coefficients of the symmetric group that count the number of factorizations of a long cycle as a product of three permutations. Such factorizations admit an important topological interpretation…

A practical approach is proposed to construct short presentations for Euclidean crystallographic groups in terms of generators and relations. For our purposes a short presentation is the one with a small number of short relators for a given…

We consider a question of Edjvet and Vdovina concerning which groups defined by special presentations are large. For each integer $n \ge 3$, we construct an $n$-generator one-relator presentation whose star graph is the complete bipartite…

There are exactly three finite subgroups of SU(2) that act irreducibly in the spin 1 representation, namely the binary tetrahedral, binary octahedral and binary icosahedral groups. In previous papers I have shown how the binary tetrahedral…

We consider groups defined by cyclic presentations where the defining word has length three and the cyclic presentation satisfies the T(6) small cancellation condition. We classify when these groups are hyperbolic. When combined with known…

By considering the general properties of approximate units in differentiable algebras, we are able to present a unified approach to characterising completeness of spectral metric spaces, existence of connections on modules, and the lifting…

All nonabelian finite simple groups of rank $n$ over a field of size $q$, with the possible exception of the Ree groups $^2G_2(3^{2e+1})$, have presentations with at most $80 $ relations and bit-length $O(\log n +\log q)$. Moreover, $A_n$…

The main goal of the paper is to present a general model theoretic framework to understand a result of Shalev on probabilistically finite nilpotent groups. We prove that a suitable group where the equation $[x_1,\ldots,x_k]=1$ holds on a…

We prove that there exist $k\in N$ and $0<\epsilon\in R$ such that every non-abelian finite simple group $G$, which is not a Suzuki group, has a set of $k$ generators for which the Cayley graph $\Cay(G; S)$ is an $\epsilon$-expander.

The Burnside Problem asks whether a finitely generated group of exponent n is finite. We present a solution for 2-generator groups of prime power exponent. Results of P. Hall and G. Higman extends the finiteness conclusion to groups having…

By introducing a notion of smooth connection for unbounded $KK$-cycles, we show that the Kasparov product of such cycles can be defined directly, by an algebraic formula. In order to achieve this it is necessary to develop a framework of…

Type A N-fold supersymmetry of one-dimensional quantum mechanics can be constructed by using sl(2) generators represented on a finite dimensional functional space. Using this sl(2) formalism we show a general method of constructing Type A…

We introduce k-quantifier logics -- logics with access to k-tuples of elements and very general quantification patterns for transitions between k-tuples. The framework is very expressive and encompasses e.g. the k-variable fragments of…

Let G be a connected, semisimple Lie group with finite center and let K be a maximal compact subgroup. We investigate a method to compute multiplicities of K-types in the discrete series using a rational expression for a generating function…

In this work, we systematically derive explicit expressions for the Poincar\'e Group generators on arbitrary-rank tensors and spinor-tensors in $D=3+1$ and $D=2+1$ spacetimes, thus generalizing previous works in the literature for the…

Controlled topology is one of the main tools for proving the isomorphism conjecture concerning the algebraic $K$-theory of group rings. In this article we dive into this machinery in two examples: when the group is infinite cyclic and when…

There are many classes of nonsimple graph C*-algebras that are classified by the six-term exact sequence in K-theory. In this paper we consider the range of this invariant and determine which cyclic six-term exact sequences can be obtained…
