Let p be a prime. Uniform pro-p groups play a central role in the theory of p-adic Lie groups. Indeed, a topological group admits the structure of a p-adic Lie group if and only if it contains an open pro-p subgroup which is uniform.…

Graphical designs are subsets of vertices of a graph that perfectly average a selected set of eigenvectors of the Graph Laplacian. We show that in highly-structured graphs, graphical designs can coincide with highly structured and…

We initiate the study of some pro-p-groups arising from infinite-dimensional Lie theory. These groups are completions of some subgroups of incomplete Kac-Moody groups over finite fields, with respect to various completions of algebraic or…

Various algebraic structures in geometry and group theory have appeared to be governed by certain universal rings. Examples include: the cohomology rings of Hilbert schemes of points on projective surfaces and quasi-projective surfaces; the…

A little-known and highly economical characterization of the real interval [0, 1], essentially due to Freyd, states that the interval is homeomorphic to two copies of itself glued end to end, and, in a precise sense, is universal as such.…

The class of abelian $p$-groups are an example of some very interesting phenomena in computable structure theory. We will give an elementary first-order theory $T_p$ whose models are each bi-interpretable with the disjoint union of an…

The traditional Pi-theorem tells us that for any dimensionally invariant relation there exists a full set of independent dimensionless "Pi groups" which can be used to nondimensionalise the relation. In this paper, we seek to understand…

Let $G$ be a finite $p$-group and let Aut$(G)$ denote the full automorphism group of $G$. In the recent past, there has been interest in finding necessary and sufficient conditions on $G$ such that certain subgroups of Aut$(G)$ are equal.…

Recently George Bergman proved that the symmetric group of an infinite set possesses the following property which we call by the {\it universality of finite width}: given any generating set $X$ of the symmetric group of an infinite set…

A graphical design is a subset of graph vertices such that the weighted averages of certain graph eigenvectors over the design agree with their global averages. We use Gale duality to show that positively weighted graphical designs in…

We have established the method of characterizing the unitary design generated by a symmetric local random circuit. Concretely, we have shown that the necessary and sufficient condition for the circuit asymptotically forming a t-design is…

In general a universal covering of a non connected topological group need not admit a topological group structure such that the covering map is a morphism of topological groups. This result is due to R.L. Taylor (1953). We generalise this…

Weyl's unitary matrices, which were introduced in Weyl's 1927 paper on group theory and quantum mechanics, are $p\times p$ unitary matrices given by the diagonal matrix whose entries are the $p$-th roots of unity and the cyclic shift…

We examine the existence of universal elements in classes of infinite abelian groups. The main method is using group invariants which are defined relative to club guessing sequences. We prove, for example: Theorem: For $n\ge 2$, there is a…

We generalise the existence of combinatorial designs to the setting of subset sums in lattices with coordinates indexed by labelled faces of simplicial complexes. This general framework includes the problem of decomposing hypergraphs with…

Spherical Designs are finite sets of points on the sphere $\mathbb{S}^{d}$ with the property that the average of certain (low-degree) polynomials in these points coincides with the global average of the polynomial on $\mathbb{S}^{d}$. They…

We survey the theory of totally symmetric sets, with applications to homomorphisms of symmetric groups, braid groups, linear groups, and mapping class groups.

Let S be a subsemigroup of an abelian torsion-free group G. If S is a positive cone of G, then all C*-algebras generated by faithful isometrical non-unitary representations of S are canonically isomorphic. Proved by Murphy, this statement…

In computer experiments, it has become a standard practice to select the inputs that spread out as uniformly as possible over the design space. The resulting designs are called space-filling designs and they are undoubtedly desirable…

The $p$-set, which is in a simple analytic form, is well distributed in unit cubes. The well-known Weil's exponential sum theorem presents an upper bound of the exponential sum over the $p$-set. Based on the result, one shows that the…
