It is well-known that an element of the linear group ${\rm GL}_n(\C)$ is semisimple if and only if its conjugacy class is Zariski closed. The aim of this paper is to show that the same result holds for the group of complex plane polynomial…
We consider a variant of the strong multiplicity one theorem. Let $\pi_{1}$ and $\pi_{2}$ be two unitary cuspidal automorphic representations for $\mathrm{GL(2)}$ that are not twist-equivalent. We find a lower bound for the lower Dirichlet…
We prove that every Polish group with more than two elements admits a non-trivial topological group automorphism. As a consequence, a hypothetical uniquely homogeneous Polish space with more than two points cannot be a semitopological…
Let $X$ be a generic curve of genus $g$ defined over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $p\geq 0$. We show that for $n$ sufficiently large there exists a tame rational map $f:X\to \PP^1_k$ with monodromy group $A_n$. This…
We show that the group of homeomorphisms of the Cantor set $H(K)$ has ample generics, that is, for every $m$ the diagonal conjugacy action $g\cdot(h_1,h_2,..., h_m)=(gh_1g^{-1},gh_2g^{-1},..., gh_mg^{-1})$ of $H(K)$ on $H(K)^m$ has a…
Using the Guirardel-Levitt outer space of a free product, we prove that the outer automorphism group of the outer automorphism group of the universal Coxeter group of rank $n \geq 5$ is trivial, and that it is a cyclic group of order 2 if…
We show that the intersection pairing on our real intersection homology groups is not a dual pairing in general.
We apply results proved in [Li19] to the linear order expansions of non-trivial free homogeneous structures and the universal n-linear order for $n\geq 2$, and prove the simplicity of their automorphism groups.
We prove that the 18-element non-lattice orthomodular poset depicted in the paper is the smallest one and unique up to isomorphism. Since not every Boolean poset is orthomodular, we consider the class of the so-called generalized…
We study the notion of weak amalgamation in the context of diagonal conjugacy classes. Generalizing results of Kechris and Rosendal, we prove that for every countable structure $M$, Polish group $G$ of permutations of $M$, and $n \geq 1$,…
We give a precise definition of ``generic-case complexity'' and show that for a very large class of finitely generated groups the classical decision problems of group theory - the word, conjugacy and membership problems - all have…
As Goresky and MacPherson intersection homology is not the homology of a space, there is no preferred candidate for intersection homotopy groups. Here, they are defined as the homotopy groups of a simplicial set which P. Gajer associates to…
We prove that finitely presented residually free groups are subgroup conjugacy separable. Furthermore, if they are of type $FP_\infty$, then they are also subgroup conjugacy distinguished. Using a connection between conjugacy separability…
We first give a relative flexible process to construct torsion cohomology classes for Shimura varieties of Kottwitz-Harris-Taylor type with coefficient in a non too regular local system. We then prove that associated to each torsion…
We classify pairs of conjugacy classes in almost simple algebraic groups whose product consists of finitely many classes. This leads to several interesting families of examples which are related to a generalization of the Baer--Suzuki…
We advance superselection theory of pure states on a $C^*$-algebra $\mathfrak{A}$ outside of the conventional (DHR) setting. First, we canonically define conjugate and second conjugate classes of such states with respect to a given…
We associate a finite directed graph with each equivalence class of words in $F_2$ under $\operatorname*{Aut} F_2$, and we completely classify these graphs, giving a structural classification of the automorphic conjugacy classes of $F_2$.…
We prove here that with a very small number of exceptions, when $G$ is a sporadic simple group and $p$ is a prime such that the Sylow $p$-subgroups of $G$ are nonabelian, then $Out(G)$ is isomorphic to the outer automorphism groups of the…
We conjecture that the automorphism group of a topological parallelism on real projective 3-space is compact. We prove that at least the identity component of this group is, indeed, compact.
The conjugacy problem belongs to algorithmic group theory. It is the following question: given two words x, y over generators of a fixed group G, decide whether x and y are conjugated, i.e., whether there exists some z such that zxz^{-1} =…
