We prove an equivariant version of the classical Menger-Nobeling theorem regarding topological embeddings: Whenever a group $G$ acts on a finite-dimensional compact metric space $X$, a generic continuous equivariant function from $X$ into…

We obtain estimations for isotopy classes of embeddings of closed k-connected n-manifolds into R^{2n-k-1} for n>2k+5 and k\ge0. This is done in terms of an exact sequence involving the Whitney invariants and an explicitly constructed action…

The Higman-Neumann-Neumann (HNN) paper of 1949 is a landmark of group theory in the twentieth century. The proof of its main theorem covers less than a page and uses only pre-existing technology, but the construction that it introduced --…

We define various monoid versions of the R. Thompson group $V$, and prove connections with monoids of acyclic digital circuits. We show that the monoid $M_{2,1}$ (based on partial functions) is not embeddable into Thompson's monoid ${\sf…

In this paper, we prove a series of results on group embeddings in groups with a small number of generators. We show that each finitely generated group $G$ lying in a variety ${\mathcal M}$ can be embedded in a $4$-generated group $H \in…

We study equivariant embeddings with small boundary of a given homogeneous space $G/H$, where $G$ is a connected, linear algebraic group with trivial Picard group and only trivial characters, and $H \subset G$ is an extension of a connected…

The Higman--Thompson groups $V_{n,r}$ consist of piecewise linear automorphisms of $r$ intervals where cut points and slopes are $n$-adic. Szymik and Wahl prove homological stability for this family of groups as $r$ increases, and compute…

We introduce a number of new tools for the study of relatively hyperbolic groups. First, given a relatively hyperbolic group G, we construct a nice combinatorial Gromov hyperbolic model space acted on properly by G, which reflects the…

We show that pure subgroups of infinitely braided Thompson's are bi-orderable. For every finitely generated pure subgroup, we give explicit sets of generators.

We define a family of groups that generalises Thompson's groups $T$ and $G$ and also those of Higman, Stein and Brin. For groups in this family we descrine centralisers of finite subgroups and show, that for a given finite subgroup $Q$,…

We give an explicit characterization for group extensions that correspond to elements of the symmetric cohomology $HS^2(G,A)$. We also give conditions for the map $HS^n(G,A)\to H^n(G,A)$ to be injective.

This is the second part of a two part work in which we prove that for every finitely generated subgroup $\Gamma < \mathsf{Out}(F_n)$, either $\Gamma$ is virtually abelian or its second bounded cohomology $H^2_b(\Gamma;\mathbb{R})$ contains…

We prove that every right-angled Coxeter group (RACG) is profinitely rigid amongst all Coxeter groups. On the other hand we exhibit RACGs which have infinite profinite genus amongst all finitely generated residually finite groups. We also…

For a compact group G, we give a sufficient condition for embedding one G-equivariant vector bundle into another one and for a stable isomorphism between two such bundles to imply an isomorphism. Our criteria involve multiplicities of…

In this paper, we prove that if two finite groups G and H have isomorphic Burnside rings, then G and H are the same order type groups, and give an example to show that the Burnside rings of the same order type groups are not necessarily…

Building upon previous results, a classification is given of finite $p$-groups of which subgroups of order $p$ are all fused. This completes the classification problem dated back to Higman 1963 on the so-called Suzuki $2$-groups, and…
