This survey purports to be an elementary introduction to compactly presented groups, which are the analogue of finitely presented groups in the broader realm of locally compact groups. In particular, compact presentation is interpreted as a…
Let $M$ be a complete Riemannian manifold. Suppose $M$ contains a bounded, concave, connected open set $U$ with $C^0$ boundary and $M\setminus U$ is connected. We assume that either the relative homotopy set $\pi_1(M,M\setminus U)=0$ or the…
We prove that if G is a sufficiently large finite almost simple group of Lie type, then given a fixed nontrivial element x in G and a coset of G modulo its socle, the probability that x and a random element of the coset generate a subgroup…
We prove that a closed subgroup $H$ of a second countable locally compact group $G$ is amenable if and only if its left regular representation on an Orlicz space $L^\Phi(G)$ for some $\Delta_2$-regular $N$-function $\Phi$ almost has…
In this paper, we first prove that a compact K\"ahler manifold is projective if it satisfies certain quasi-positive curvature conditions, including quasi-positive $S_2^\perp,\, S_2^+,\,\mbox{Ric}_3^\perp, \,\mbox{Ric}_3^+$ or…
A graphon satisfies the $H$-property if graphs sampled from it contain a Hamiltonian decomposition almost surely, which in turn implies that the corresponding network topologies are, e.g., structurally stable and structurally ensemble…
An important measure of bipartite entanglement is the entanglement of formation, which is defined as the minimum average pure state entanglement of all decompositions realizing a given state. A decomposition which achieves this minimum is…
Let $f: X \to Y$ be a regular covering of a surface $Y$ of finite type with nonempty boundary, with finitely-generated (possibly infinite) deck group $G$. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for an integral homology class on $X$ to…
We prove a structure theorem for periodic locally soluble groups satisfying a chain condition on intersections of relatively uniformly definable subgroups using results from the theory of stable groups. The result in particular shows that…
In this paper we search for conditions on a countably compact (pseudo-compact) topological semigroup under which: (i) each maximal subgroup $H(e)$ in $S$ is a (closed) topological subgroup in $S$; (ii) the Clifford part $H(S)$(i.e. the…
Let $X$ be a locally compact zero-dimensional space, let $S$ be an equicontinuous set of homeomorphisms such that $1 \in S = S^{-1}$, and suppose that $\overline{Gx}$ is compact for each $x \in X$, where $G = \langle S \rangle$. We show in…
By a proper cover of a finite group G we mean an extension of a nontrivial finite group by G. Our purpose is to show that a proper cover of a finite simple group L of Lie type always contains an element whose order differs from the element…
We establish a necessary and sufficient condition for a normal subgroup of a finite group to be a subgroup perfect code.
Let $X$ be a topological space, $U$ -- opened subset of $X$. We will say that point $x \in \partial U$ is {\it accessible} from $U$ if there exists continuous injective mapping $\phi : I \to \Cl D$ such that $\phi(1)=x$, $\phi([0,1))…
Let $G$ be a totally disconnected, locally compact group and let $H$ be a virtually flat (for example, polycyclic) group of automorphisms of $G$. We study the structure of, and relationships between, various subgroups of $G$ defined by the…
We provide a condition on the links of polygonal complexes that is sufficient to ensure groups acting properly discontinuously and cocompactly on such complexes contain a virtually free codimension-1 subgroup. We provide stronger conditions…
Let $G$ be a finite group and $S< G$. A cover for a group $G$ is a collection of subgroups of $G$ whose union is $G$. We use the term $n$-cover for a cover with $n$ members. A cover $\Pi =\{H_1, H_2, \dots, H_n\}$ is said to be a strict…
The note contains a few results related to separation axioms and automatic continuity of operations in compact-like semitopological groups. In particular, is presented a semiregular semitopological group $G$ which is not $T_3$. We show that…
We define recurrence for a compactly generated para-topological group $G$ acting continuously on a locally compact Hausdorff space $X$ with $\dim X=0$, and then, show that if $\overline{Gx}$ is compact for all $x\in X$, the conditions (i)…
We announce various results concerning the structure of compactly generated simple locally compact groups. We introduce a local invariant, called the structure lattice, which consists of commensurability classes of compact subgroups with…
