We show that a continuous map or a continuous flow on $\R^{n}$ with a certain recurrence relation must have a fixed point. Specifically, if there is a compact set W with the property that the forward orbit of every point in $\R^{n}$…

Using the weak factorization theorem we give a simple presentation for the value group of the universal Euler characteristic with compact support for varieties of characteristic zero and describe the value group of the universal Euler…

The higher characteristics w_m(G) for a finite abstract simplicial complex G are topological invariants that satisfy k-point Green function identities and can be computed in terms of Euler characteristic in the case of closed manifolds,…

Given an action by a finite quantum group $\mathbb{G}$ on a von Neumann algebra $M$, we prove that a number of familiar $W^*$ properties are equivalent for $M$ and the fixed-point algebra $M^{\mathbb{G}}$ (i.e. hold or not simultaneously…

We use the Euler characteristic of the orbit category of a finite group to establish equivalences between theorems of Frobenius and K.S. Brown and between theorems of Steinberg and L. Solomon.

It is shown, for a given graph group $G$, that the fixed point subgroup Fix$\,\varphi$ is finitely generated for every endomorphism $\varphi$ of $G$ if and only if $G$ is a free product of free abelian groups. The same conditions hold for…

If two G-manifolds are G-cobordant then characteristic numbers corresponding to the fixed point sets (submanifolds) of subgroups of G and to normal bundles to these sets coincide. We construct two analogues of these characteristic numbers…

In this paper, we examine Lie group actions on moduli spaces (sets themselves built as quotients by group actions) and their fixed points. We show that when the Lie group is compact and connected, we obtain a linear constraint. This…

Macbeath gave a formula for the number of fixed points for each non-identity element of a cyclic group of automorphisms of a compact Riemann surface in terms of the universal covering transformation group of the cyclic group. We observe…

We characterize the fundamental group of a locally finite graph G with ends combinatorially, as a group of infinite words. Our characterization gives rise to a canonical embedding of this group in the inverse limit of the (free) fundamental…

In this short note, we provide a calculation of the Euler characteristic of a finite homotopy colimit of finite cell complexes, which depends only on the Euler characteristics of each space and resembles Mobius inversion. Versions of the…

We establish a fixed point property for a certain class of locally compact groups, including almost connected Lie groups and compact groups of finite abelian width, which act by simplicial isometries on finite rank buildings with measurable…

We study the subvariety of fixed points of an automorphism of a Calogero-Moser space induced by a regular element of finite order of the normalizer of the associated complex reflection group $W$. We determine some of (and conjecturally all)…

We prove that any finite subgroup $G \subset \Gamma_{{\boldsymbol{s}}}$ of the cluster modular group has fixed points in the cluster manifolds $\mathcal{A}_{\boldsymbol{s}}(\mathbb{R}_{>0})$ and…

We analzye Rieffel's construction of generalized fixed point algebras in the setting of group actions on Hilbert modules. Let G be a locally compact group acting on a C*-algebra B. We construct a Hilbert module F over the reduced crossed…

Let G be a Lie group over a local field of positive characteristic which admits a contractive automorphism f (i.e., the forward iterates f^n(x) of each group element x converge to the neutral element 1). We show that then G is a torsion…

Let K be an algebraically closed field, X a K-scheme, and X(K) the set of closed points in X. A constructible set C in X(K) is a finite union of subsets Y(K) for finite type subschemes Y in X. A constructible function f : X(K) --> Q has…

The degree pattern of a finite group is the degree sequence of its prime graph in ascending order of vertices. We say that the problem of OD-characterization is solved for a finite group if we determine the number of pairwise nonisomorphic…

We show that a rank two finite group G admits a finite G-CW-complex X homotopy equivalent to a sphere, with rank one prime power isotropy, if and only if G does not p'-involve Qd(p) for any odd prime p. This follows from a more general…

This paper provides a bridge between two active areas of research, the spectrum (set of element orders) and the power graph of a finite group. The order sequence of a finite group $G$ is the list of orders of elements of the group, arranged…
