Fix $\varepsilon > 0$. We say that a finite group $G$ is $\varepsilon$-quasirandom if every nontrivial irreducible complex representation of $G$ has degree at least $|G|^\varepsilon$. In this paper, we give a structure theorem for large…

The power graph and the enhanced power graph of a group $\mathbf G$ are simple graphs with vertex set $G$; two elements of $G$ are adjacent in the power graph if one of them is a power of the other, and they are adjacent in the enhanced…

We show that the natural algebraic structure of the singular chains on a path connected topological space determines the fundamental group functorially. Moreover, we describe a notion of weak equivalence for the relevant algebraic structure…

We study Farrell Nil-groups associated to a finite order automorphism of a ring $R$. We show that any such Farrell Nil-group is either trivial, or infinitely generated (as an abelian group). Building on this first result, we then show that…

A group is said to be strongly amenable if each of its proximal topological actions has a fixed point. We show that a finitely generated group is strongly amenable if and only if it is virtually nilpotent. More generally, a countable…

A binary operation on any set induces a binary operation on its subsets. We explore families of subsets of a group that become a group under the induced operation and refer to such families as power groups of the given group. Our results…

We prove that all cubulated groups are semistable at infinity. In doing so we prove two further results about cubulations of groups. The first of these states that any one-ended cubulated group has a cubulation for which all halfspaces are…

This is an expository work presenting in detail the proof of the structure theorem for divisible abelian groups. A divisible abelian group is an abelian group that satisfies nD=D for all natural n. The theorem states that any divisible…

We examine the existence of universal elements in classes of infinite abelian groups. The main method is using group invariants which are defined relative to club guessing sequences. We prove, for example: Theorem: For $n\ge 2$, there is a…

We call a simplicial complex algebraically rigid if its Stanley-Reisner ring admits no nontrivial infinitesimal deformations, and call it inseparable if does not allow any deformation to other simplicial complexes. Algebraically rigid…

In this paper, we introduce a concept of weakly principally quasi-Baer *-rings in terms of central cover. We prove that a *-rings is a principally quasi-Baer *-rings if and only if it is weakly principally quasi-Baer *-rings with unity. A…

Here we analyze a proper 2-generated core in a minimal counter example to the Cherlin-Zilber Algebraicity Conjecture for simple groups of finite Morley rank. We ultimately show that such a group is strongly embedded and the ambiant group is…

Chevalley's theorem states that every smooth connected algebraic group over a perfect field is an extension of an abelian variety by a smooth connected affine group. That fails when the base field is not perfect. We define a pseudo-abelian…

By a recent result of Juh\'{a}sz and van Mill, a locally compact topological group whose dense subspaces are all separable is metrizable. In this note we investigate the following question: is every locally compact group having all dense…

A sibling of a relational structure $R$ is any structure $S$ which can be embedded into $R$ and, vice versa, in which $R$ can be embedded. Let $sib(R)$ be the number of siblings of $R$, these siblings being counted up to isomorphism.…

Given a finite group $G$, we denote by $\psi\,'(G)$ the product of element orders of $G$. Our main result proves that the restriction of $\psi\,'$ to abelian $p$-groups of order $p^n$ is strictly increasing with respect to a natural order…

Weakly Schreier split extensions are a reasonably large, yet well-understood class of monoid extensions, which generalise some aspects of split extensions of groups. This short note provides a way to define and study similar classes of…

For a finite group $G$, let $LC(G)$ be the subgroup generated by elements $x$ such that, for all $y \in G$ and all integers $n$, the order of $x^n y$ divides the least common multiple of the orders of $x$ and $y$. This subgroup is a…

Let $\mathbb{F}_{q}$ be a finite field of characteristic $p$, and let $W_{2}(\mathbb{F}_{q})$ be the ring of Witt vectors of length two over $\mathbb{F}_{q}$. We prove that for any reductive group scheme $\mathbb{G}$ over $\mathbb{Z}$ such…

We give for a compact group G, a full characterisation of when its Fourier algebra A(G) is weakly amenable: when the connected component of the identity G_e is abelian. This condition is also equivalent to the hyper-Tauberian property for…
