A permutation of n letters is k-prolific if each (n-k)-subset of the letters in its one-line notation forms a unique pattern. We present a complete characterization of k-prolific permutations for each k, proving that k-prolific permutations…

This work addresses the existence of transitive extensions of certain infinite permutation groups which arise as the automorphism groups of model-theoretic structures which are generic in the Fra\"iss\'e sense. The study of transitive…

Let $i(\infty,k)$ be the limiting proportion, as $n \rightarrow \infty$, of permutations in the symmetric group of degree $n$ that fix a $k$-set. We give an algorithm for computing $i(\infty,k)$ and state the values of $i(\infty,k)$ for $k…

Let $G$ be a transitive permutation group on a finite set of size at least $2$. By a well known theorem of Fein, Kantor and Schacher, $G$ contains a derangement of prime power order. In this paper, we study the finite primitive permutation…

The second author introduced notions of weak permutability and commutativity between groups and proved the finiteness of a group generated by two weakly permutable finite groups. Two groups H,K weakly commute provided there exists a…

This paper studies the generic behavior of $k$-tuple elements for $k\ge 2$ in a proper group action with contracting elements, with applications towards relatively hyperbolic groups, CAT(0) groups and mapping class groups. For a class of…

Depending on a natural parameter $l$, we study the topological, metric, and fractal properties of the homogeneous self-similar set $$K_{l}=\left\{\sum_{i=1}^{\infty} \frac{\varepsilon_i}{(2l+2)^i} : (\varepsilon_i) \in \{0, 2, 4, \dots, 2l,…

Invariance properties of semimartingales on Lie groups under a family of random transformations are defined and investigated, generalizing the random rotations of the Brownian motion. A necessary and sufficient explicit condition…

We give a simple definition of property T for discrete quantum groups. We prove the basic expected properties: discrete quantum groups with property T are finitely generated and unimodular. Moreover we show that, for "I.C.C." discrete…

We generalize the concept of partial permutations of Ivanov and Kerov and introduce $k$-partial permutations. This allows us to show that the structure coefficients of the center of the wreath product $\mathcal{S}_k\wr \mathcal{S}_n$…

For every $c\geq 1$, we define a strengthening of Kazhdan's Property (T) by considering uniformly bounded representations $\pi$ with fixed bound $|\pi|\leq c$. We carry out a systematic study of this property and show that it can be…

Let $K$ be a subgroup of a finite group $G$. The probability that an element of $G$ commutes with an element of $K$ is denoted by $Pr(K,G)$. Assume that $Pr(K,G)\geq\epsilon$ for some fixed $\epsilon>0$. We show that there is a normal…

Let $\pi=(\pi_1,\pi_2,\hdots,\pi_n)$ be permutation of the elements $1,2,\hdots,n. $ Positive integer $k\leq2^{n-1}$ we call index of $\pi,$ if in its binary notation as $n$-digital binary number, the 1's correspond to the ascent points. We…

We consider the (direct sum over all $n$ of the) $K$-theory of the semi-nilpotent commuting variety of $\mathfrak{gl}_n$, and describe its convolution algebra structure in two ways: the first as an explicit shuffle algebra (i.e. a…

We discuss properties of random fractals by means of a set of numbers that characterize their universal properties. This set is the generalized singularity specturm that consists of the usual spectrum of mulitfractal dimensions and the…

We are interested in semigroups of the form $\langle G,a\rangle\setminus G$, where $G$ is a permutation group of degree $n$ and $a$ a non-permutation on the domain of $G$. A theorem of the first author, Mitchell and Schneider shows that, if…

The genus spectrum of a finite group $G$ is the set of all $g\geq 2$ such that $G$ acts faithfully and orientation-preserving on a closed compact orientable surface of genus $g$. This article is an overview of some results relating the…

This is a presentation of recent work on quantum permutation groups. Contains: a short introduction to operator algebras and Hopf algebras; quantum permutation groups, and their basic properties; diagrams, integration formulae, asymptotic…

We show that under certain conditions, well-studied algebraic properties transfer from the class $\mathcal{Q}_{_\text{RFSI}}$ of the relatively finitely subdirectly irreducible members of a quasivariety $\mathcal{Q}$ to the whole…

Let $p$ be an odd prime. In this paper, we study the permutation behaviour of the reversed Dickson polynomials of the $(k+1)$-th kind $D_{n,k}(1,x)$ when $n=p^{l_1}+3$, $n=p^{l_1}+p^{l_2}+p^{l_3}$, and $n=p^{l_1}+p^{l_2}+p^{l_3}+p^{l_4}$,…
