In a stable abelian group, we characterize generic types of cosets of type-definable subgroups.

A subgroup $H$ of a topological abelian group $X$ is said to be characterized by a sequence $\mathbf v =(v_n)$ of characters of $X$ if $H=\{x\in X:v_n(x)\to 0\ \text{in}\ \mathbb T\}$. We study the basic properties of characterized…

ECM survey article discussing the structure of subsets of Abelian groups which behave `a bit like' cosets (of subgroups).

The aim of this paper is to present a complete description of the structure of subsets S of an orderable group G satisfying |S^2| = 3|S|-2 and <S> is non-abelian.

A finite group is said to be weakly separable if every algebraic isomorphism between two $S$-rings over this group is induced by a combinatorial isomorphism. In the paper we prove that every abelian weakly separable group belongs to one of…

It is proved that, in certain subgroups of direct products of countable groups, the property of being an unconditionally closed set coincides with that of being an algebraic set. In particular, these properties coincide in all Abelian…

In this paper, poor abelian groups are characterized. It is proved that an abelian group is poor if and only if its torsion part contains a direct summand isomorphic to $\oplus_{p \in P} \Z_p$, where $P$ is the set of prime integers. We…

We prove that Abels' group over an arbitrary nondiscrete locally compact field has a quadratic Dehn function. As applications, we exhibit connected Lie groups and polycyclic groups whose asymptotic cones have uncountable abelian fundamental…

In the current paper we study the groups, whose subnormal abelian subgroups are normal. We obtained a quite detailed description of such hyperabelian groups with a periodic Baer radical. The description of hyperabelian Lie algebras, whose…

In this short note we prove that the finite non-abelian simple groups PSL(2,q), where q = 5,7, are determined by their posets of classes of isomorphic subgroups. In particular, this disproves the conjecture in the end of [5].

Let $a\geq 1$ and $n>1$ be odd integers. For a given prime $p$, we prove under certain conditions that the class groups of imaginary quadratic fields $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{a^2-4p^n})$ have a subgroup isomorphic to $\mathbb{Z}/n\mathbb{Z}$. We…

Let G be a locally compact group, and ZL1(G) be the centre of its group algebra. We show that when $G$ is compact ZL1(G) is not amenable when G is either nonabelian and connected, or is a product of infinitely many finite nonabelian groups.…

Given a prime $p$, we construct a permutation group containing at least $p^{p-2}$ non-conjugated regular elementary abelian subgroups of order $p^3$. This gives the first example of a permutation group with exponentially many non-conjugated…

A matching from a finite subset $A\subset\mathbb{Z}^n$ to another subset $B\subset\mathbb{Z}^n$ is a bijection $f : A \rightarrow B$ with the property that $a+f(a)$ never lies in $A$. A matching is called acyclic if it is uniquely…

We consider the triples of integer numbers that are solutions of the equation $x^2+qy^2=z^2$, where $q$ is a fixed, square-free arbitrary positive integer. The set of equivalence classes of these triples forms an abelian group under the…

We prove that every countable subgroup of a compact metrizable abelian group has a characterizing set. As an application, we answer several questions on maximally almost periodic (MAP) groups and give a characterization of the class of…

For $p$ a prime, $G$ a finite group and $A$ a normal subset of elements of order $p$, we prove that if $A^2 = \{ab \mid a, b \in A\}$ consists of $p$-elements then $Q = \langle A \rangle$ is soluble. Further, if $O_p(G) = 1$, we show that…

We present three families of pairs of geometrically non-isomorphic curves whose Jacobians are isomorphic to one another as unpolarized abelian varieties. Each family is parametrized by an open subset of P^1. The first family consists of…

In this paper we give invariants that characterize isotypically equivalent Abelian periodic groups. Also, we describe types of standart tuples of elements in these groups. As the particular case we prove that two Abelian $p$-groups with…

A group is small if it has countably many complete $n$-types over the empty set for each natural number n. More generally, a group $G$ is weakly small if it has countably many complete 1-types over every finite subset of G. We show here…
