We consider random subgroups of Thompson's group $F$ with respect to two natural stratifications of the set of all $k$ generator subgroups. We find that the isomorphism classes of subgroups which occur with positive density are not the same…

Choose any oriented link type X and closed braid representatives X[+], X[-] of X, where X[-] has minimal braid index among all closed braid representatives of X. The main result of this paper is a `Markov theorem without stabilization'. It…

We show that labelled Thompson groups and twisted Brin--Thompson groups are all acyclic. This allows us to prove several new embedding results for groups. First, every group of type $F_n$ embeds quasi-isometrically as a subgroup of an…

We define a quasihomomorphism from braid groups to the concordance group of knots and examine its properties and consequences of its existence. In particular, we provide a relation between the stable four ball genus in the concordance group…

We study a novel type of braid groups on a closed orientable surface $\Sigma$. These are fundamental groups of certain manifolds that are hybrids between symmetric products and configuration spaces of points on $\Sigma$; a class of examples…

Unlike the classical Brauer group of a field, the Brauer-Grothendieck group of a singular scheme need not be torsion. We show that there exist integral normal projective surfaces over a large field of positive characteristic with…

A group is called $\Lambda$-free if it has a free Lyndon length function in an ordered abelian group $\Lambda$, which is equivalent to having a free isometric action on a $\Lambda$-tree. A group has a regular free length function in…

We prove that each Torelli group of an orientable surface with any number of boundary components is at least exponentially distorted in the mapping class group by using Broaddus-Farb-Putman's techniques. Further we show that the distortion…

We construct the first examples of finitely presented groups with cubic Dehn function containing a finitely generated infinite torsion subgroup. Moreover, we show that any infinite free Burnside group with sufficiently large odd exponent…

There is a longstanding conjecture, due to Gregory Cherlin and Boris Zilber, that all simple groups of finite Morley rank are simple algebraic groups. One of the major theorems in the area is Borovik's trichotomy theorem. The "trichotomy"…

We construct an action of a braid group associated to a complete graph on the derived category of a certain symmetric Nakayama algebra which is also a Brauer star algebra with no exceptional vertex. We connect this action with the affine…

We prove that a finite braided tensor category A is invertible in the Morita 4-category BrTens of braided tensor categories if, and only if, it is non-degenerate. This includes the case of semisimple modular tensor categories, but also…

Let T_n be the Teichmueller space of flat metrics on the n-dimensional torus and identify SL(n,Z) with the corresponding mapping class group. We prove that the subset Y consisting of those points at which the systoles generate the…

We study the slicing and fine properties of functions in $\mathrm{BV}^{\mathcal A}$, the space of functions with bounded $\mathcal A$-variation. Here, $\mathcal A$ is a homogeneous linear differential operator with constant coefficients (of…

We study the notion of twisted conjugacy separability (essentially introduced in our previous paper for a proof of twisted version of Burnside-Frobenius theorem) and some related properties. We give examples of groups with and without this…

We proved the existence of invariant tori in differentiable Hamiltonian vector fields without action-angle variables. It is a generalization of the result of [Llave, 2005] that deals with analytic vector fields.

We show that recent results of U. Baumgartner and G.A. Willis concerning contraction groups of automorphisms of metrizable, totally disconnected, locally compact groups remain valid also in the non-metrizable case, if one restricts…

Using spectral sequences techniques we compute the bihamiltonian cohomology groups of the pencil of Poisson brackets of dispersionless KdV hierarchy. In particular this proves a conjecture of Liu and Zhang about the vanishing of such…

We prove a four-term exact sequence of surface orbifold pure braid groups for all genus $\geq 1$, $2$-dimensional orientable orbifolds with cone points. This corrects our earlier result in arXiv.2106.08110.

In this paper, we give a proof of the result of Brandenbursky and K\c{e}dra which says that the commutator subgroup of the infinite braid group admits stably unbounded norms. Moreover, we observe the norms which we constructed are…
