Given a set $A$ and an abelian group $B$ with operators in $A$, in the sense of Krull and Noether, we introduce the Ore group extension $B[x; \sigma_B, \delta_B]$ as the additive group $B[x]$, with $A[x]$ as a set of operators. Here, the…

Let $A\subseteq B$ be a ring extension and $\mathcal{G}$ be a set of $A$-submodules of $B$. We introduce a class of closure operations on $\mathcal{G}$ (which we call \emph{multiplicative operations on $(A,B,\mathcal{G})$}) that generalizes…

We raise the question of realizability of group actions which is an extended version of the 1960's Kahn realizability problem for (abstract) groups. Namely, if $M$ is a $\mathbb ZG$-module for a group $G$, we say that a simply-connected…

We consider the amenability of groupoids $G$ equipped with a group valued cocycle $c:G\to Q$ with amenable kernel $c^{-1}(e)$. We prove a general result which implies, in particular, that $G$ is amenable whenever $Q$ is amenable and if…

An algebraic $\Gamma$-action is an action of a countable group $\Gamma$ on a compact abelian group $X$ by continuous automorphisms of $X$. We prove that any expansive algebraic action of a finitely generated nilpotent group $\Gamma$ on a…

This is a further investigation of our approach to group actions in homological algebra in the settings of homology of {\Gamma}-simplicial groups, particularly of {\Gamma}-equivariant homology and cohomology of {\Gamma}-groups. This…

We show that, given a continuous action $\alpha$ of a locally compact group $G$ on a factor $M$, the relative commutant $M'\cap(M\rtimes_{\alpha} G)$ is contained in $M\rtimes_{\alpha} H$ where $H$ is the subgroup of elements acting without…

Let F be a field, G a finite group, and Map(G,F) the Hopf algebra of all set-theoretic maps G->F. If E is a finite field extension of F and G is its Galois group, the extension is Galois if and only if the canonical map resulting from…

We consider a version of the notion of F-inverse semigroup (studied in the algebraic theory of inverse semigroups). We point out that an action of such an inverse semigroup on a locally compact space has associated a natural groupoid…

We demonstrate that the ring of invariants for the natural action of a subgroup G of GL_n(F_q) on a polynomial ring R=K[X_1,...,X_n] need not be F-pure. In these examples G is the symplectic group over a finite field, and the invariant…

Partial representations of Hopf algebras were motivated by the theory of partial representations of groups. Alves, Batista e Vercruysse introduced partial representations of a Hopf algebra and showed that, as in the case of partial groups…

In a pervious paper Weidmann shows that there a bound on the number of orbits of edges in a tree on which a finitely generated group acts $(k,C)$-acylindrically. In this paper we extend this result to actions which are $k$-acylindrical…

We extend to the context of algebraic groups a classic result on extensions of abstract groups relating the set of isomorphism classes of extensions of $G$ by $H$ with that of extensions of $G$ by the center $Z$ of $H$. The proof should be…

The classical notion of twisted product is studied in the context of partial actions, in particular, we show that the globalization of a partial action is a twisted product. In addition, we establish conditions for the metrizability of…

In the first part of this paper, we let $G$ be a finitely-generated amenable group such that $G/[G, G]$ is torsion-free. We suppose that $G$ acts by homeomorphisms homotopic to the identity on a manifold $M$, and give conditions on $M$…

If $X$ is a projective variety and $G$ is an algebraic group acting algebraically on $X$, we provide a counter-example to the existence of a $G$-equivariant extension on the formal semi-universal deformation of $X$.

By an additive action on an algebraic variety $X$ of dimension $n$ we mean a regular action $\mathbb{G}_a^n \times X \to X$ with an open orbit of the commutative unipotent group $\mathbb{G}_a^n$. We prove that if a complete toric variety…

A multiplicatively closed, horizontal foliation on a Lie groupoid may be viewed as a "pseudoaction" on the base manifold $M$. A pseudoaction generates a pseudogroup of transformations of $M$ in the same way an ordinary Lie group action…

We study and relate certain actions and extensions involving 2-groups.

For a twisted partial action \Theta of a group G on an (associative non-necessarily unital) algebra A over a commutative unital ring k, the crossed product A X_\Theta G is proved to be associative. Given a G-graded k-algebra B =…
