Let $G$ be a countable discrete group. We give a necessary and sufficient condition for a transitive $G$-system to be disjoint with all minimal $G$-systems, which implies that if a transitive $G$-system is disjoint with all minimal…
We study minimal idempotents $J^{\mathrm{min}}(X)$ in the Ellis semigroup $E(X)$ associated with a Floyd-Auslander system $(X,T)$. We show that $(X,T)$ is non-tame if and only if $|J^{\mathrm{min}}(X)| > 2^{\aleph_0}$, which happens exactly…
We study dp-minimal infinite profinite groups that are equipped with a uniformly definable fundamental system of open subgroups. We show that these groups have an open subgroup $A$ such that either $A$ is a direct product of countably many…
The Ellis semigroup of a dynamical system $(X,T)$ is tame if every element is the limit of a sequence (as opposed to a net) of homeomorphisms coming from the $T$ action. This topological property is related to the cardinality of the…
In this paper, it is shown that for a minimal system $(X,T)$ and $d,k\in \mathbb{N}$, if $(x,x_i)$ is regionally proximal of order $d$ for $1\leq i\leq k$, then $(x,x_1,\ldots,x_k)$ is $(k+1)$-regionally proximal of order $d$. Meanwhile, we…
For a finite group $G$ and an element $x\in G$, the subset $$ nil_G(x)=\{y\in G \mid <x,y>~~ is ~~ nilpotent\}$$ is called nilpotentizer of $x$ in $G$. In this paper, we give two solvabilty criteria for a finite group by the structure and…
The structures of the enveloping semigroups of certain elementary finite- and infinite-dimensional distal dynamical systems are given, answering open problems posed by Namioka in 1982. The universal minimal system with (topological)…
For strictly ergodic systems, we introduce the class of CF-Nil($k$) systems: systems for which the maximal measurable and maximal topological $k$-step pronilfactors coincide as measure-preserving systems. Weiss' theorem implies that such…
We prove that an operator system is (min, ess)-nuclear if its C*-envelope is nuclear. This allows us to deduce that an operator system associated to a generating set of countable discrete group by Farenick et al. is (min, ess)-nuclear if…
In this Note we study the groups $G$ satisfying condition $(\mathcal{N},n)$, that is, every subset of $G$ with $n+1$ elements contains a pair $\{x,y\}$ such that the subgroup $<x,y>$ is nilpotent.
Cameron, et al. determined the maximum size of a null subsemigroup of the full transformation semigroup $\mathcal{T}(X)$ on a finite set $X$ and provided a description of the null semigroups that achieve that size. In this paper we extend…
When a topological group $G$ acts on a compact space $X$, its enveloping semigroup $E(X)$ is the closure of the set of $g$-translations, $g\in G$, in the compact space $X^X$. Assume that $X$ is metrizable. It has recently been shown by the…
Recently, Qiu, Xu, Ye and Yu proved that for product system of finitely many minimal systems, the maximal $\infty$-step pro-nilfactor of the system is the topological characteristic factor. In this paper, we extend the result to…
Let $d$ be a positive integer. A finite group is called $d$-maximal if it can be generated by precisely $d$ elements, while its proper subgroups have smaller generating sets. For $d\in\{1,2\}$, the $d$-maximal groups have been classified up…
We consider expansive group actions on a compact metric space containing a special fixed point denoted by $0$, and endomorphisms of such systems whose forward trajectories are attracted toward $0$. Such endomorphisms are called…
Assume $G$ is a solvable group whose elementary abelian sections are all finite. Suppose, further, that $p$ is a prime such that $G$ fails to contain any subgroups isomorphic to $C_{p^\infty}$. We show that if $G$ is nilpotent, then the…
The parameter coclass has been used successfully in the study of nilpotent algebraic objects of different kinds. In this paper a definition of coclass for nilpotent semigroups is introduced and semigroups of coclass 0, 1, and 2 are…
In this paper, $d$-step almost automorphic systems are studied for $d\in\N$, which are the generalization of the classical almost automorphic ones. For a minimal topological dynamical system $(X,T)$ it is shown that the condition $x\in X$…
A set of vertices $X\subseteq V(G)$ is a $d$-distance dominating set if for every $u\in V(G)\setminus X$ there exists $x\in X$ such that $d(u,x) \le d$, and $X$ is a $p$-packing if $d(u,v) \ge p+1$ for every different $u,v\in X$. The…
Let $(X,\Gamma)$ be a topological system, where $\Gamma$ is a nilpotent group generated by $T_1,\ldots, T_d$ such that for each $T\in \Gamma$, $T\neq e_\Gamma$, $(X,T)$ is weakly mixing and minimal. For $d,k\in \mathbb{N}$, let $p_{i,j}(n),…
