We prove that the class of finite two-graphs has the extension property for partial automorphisms (EPPA, or Hrushovski property), thereby answering a question of Macpherson. In other words, we show that the class of graphs has the extension…

In this paper we prove a general theorem showing the extension property for partial automorphisms (EPPA, also called the Hrushovski property) for classes of structures containing relations and unary functions, optionally equipped with a…

We investigate Ramsey expansions, the coherent extension property for partial isometries (EPPA), and the existence of a stationary independence relation for all classes of metrically homogeneous graphs from Cherlin's catalogue. We show…

We prove that for every $n\geq 2$ the class of all finite $n$-partite tournaments (orientations of complete $n$-partite graphs) has the extension property for partial automorphisms, that is, for every finite $n$-partite tournament $G$ there…

We present a proof of the extension property for partial automorphisms (EPPA) for classes of finite $n$-partite tournaments for $n \in \{2,3,\ldots,\omega\}$, and for the class of finite semigeneric tournaments. We also prove that the…

If $G$ is a graph, $A$ and $B$ its induced subgraphs, and $f\colon A\to B$ an isomorphism, we say that $f$ is a \emph{partial automorphism} of $G$. In 1992, Hrushovski proved that graphs have the \emph{extension property for partial…

We prove that certain classes of metrically homogeneous graphs omitting triangles of odd short perimeter as well as triangles of long perimeter have the extension property for partial automorphisms and we describe their Ramsey expansions.

In this paper we study a notion of HL-extension (HL standing for Herwig--Lascar) for a structure in a finite relational language $\mathcal{L}$. We give a description of all finite minimal HL-extensions of a given finite…

We investigate which classes of infinite graphs have the Erd\H{o}s-P\'osa property (EPP). In addition to the usual EPP, we also consider the following infinite variant of the EPP: a class $\mathcal{G}$ of graphs has the $\kappa$-EPP, where…

A class K of finite structures is said to have the extension property for automorphisms (EP) if for every A in K there exists an extension B in K such that every partial isomorphism on the structure A extends to an automorphism of B.…

In this paper, we show that the infinitesimal Torelli theorem implies the existence of deformations of automorphisms. In the first part, we use Hodge theory and deformation theory to study the deformations of automorphisms of complex…

We give strengthened versions of the Herwig-Lascar and Hodkinson-Otto extension theorems for partial automorphisms of finite structures. Such strengthenings yield several combinatorial and group-theoretic consequences for homogeneous…

We show that the endomorphisms of a compact connected group that extend to endomorphisms of every compact overgroup are precisely the trivial one and the inner automorphisms; this is an analogue, for compact connected groups, of results due…

We develop a theory of $\times$-homotopy, fundamental groupoids and covering spaces that apply to non-simple graphs, generalizing existing results for simple graphs. We prove that $\times$-homotopies from finite graphs can be decomposed…

We show that if $\kappa < \aleph_\omega$ Cohen reals are added to a model of $\mathsf{CH}$, then there are nontrivial automorphisms of $\mathcal P(\omega)/\mathrm{Fin}$ in the extension. Under some further hypotheses on the ground model,…

We show that if $\lambda^{<\kappa} = \lambda$ and every normal filter on $P_\kappa\lambda$ can be extended to a $\kappa$-complete ultrafilter then so does every $\kappa$-complete filter on $\lambda$. This answers a question of Gitik.

We characterize the obstructions to the Erd\H{o}s-P\'osa property of $A$-paths in unoriented group-labelled graphs. As a result, we prove that for every finite abelian group $\Gamma$ and for every subset $\Lambda$ of $\Gamma$, the family of…
