We propose a generalisation of the congruence subgroup problem for groups acting on rooted trees. Instead of only comparing the profinite completion to that given by level stabilizers, we also compare pro-$\mathcal{C}$ completions of the…

We consider a generalisation of the Basilica group to all odd primes: the $p$-Basilica groups acting on the $p$-adic tree. We show that the $p$-Basilica groups have the $p$-congruence subgroup property but not the congruence subgroup…

With any self-similar action of a finitely generated group $G$ of automorphisms of a regular rooted tree $T$ can be naturally associated an infinite sequence of finite graphs $\{\Gamma_n\}_{n\geq 1}$, where $\Gamma_n$ is the Schreier graph…

We show that amenability of a group acting by homeomorphisms can be deduced from a certain local property of the action and recurrency of the orbital Schreier graphs. This covers amenability of a wide class groups, the amenability of which…

We prove a general result about the decomposition on ergodic components of group actions on boundaries of spherically homogeneous rooted trees. Namely, we identify the space of ergodic components with the boundary of the orbit tree…

An explicit algorithm is given for the computation of the Hausdorff dimension of the closure of a regular branch group in terms of an arbitrary branch structure. We implement this algorithm in GAP and apply it to a family of GGS-groups…

The arboreal Galois group of a polynomial $f$ over a field $K$ encodes the action of Galois on the iterated preimages of a root point $x_0\in K$, analogous to the action of Galois on the $\ell$-power torsion of an abelian variety. We…

We extend two constructions of Alan Koch, exhibiting methods to construct brace blocks, that is, families of group operations on a set $G$ such that any two of them induce a skew brace structure on $G$. We construct these operations by…

We define two algebra automorphisms $T_0$ and $T_1$ of the $q$-Onsager algebra $B_c$, which provide an analog of G. Lusztig's braid group action for quantum groups. These automorphisms are used to define root vectors which give rise to a…

The group of isometries W of a regular rooted tree, and many of its subgroups with branching structure, have groups of automorphisms induced by conjugation in W. This fact has stimulated the computation of the group of automorphisms of such…

We canonically identify the groups of isometries and dilations of local fields and their rings of integers with subgroups of the automorphism group of the $(d+1)$-regular tree $\widetilde T_{d+1}$, where $d$ is the residual degree. Then we…

We study the Tutte polynomial of two infinite families of finite graphs. These are the Schreier graphs associated with the action of two well-known self-similar groups acting on the binary rooted tree by automorphisms: the first Grigorchuk…

Since their introduction by Beilinson-Drinfeld \cite{BD,Opers1}, opers have seen several generalizations. In \cite{BSY} a higher rank analog was studied, named {generalized $B$-opers}, where the successive quotients of the oper filtration…

Bass-Serre theory provides a powerful framework for studying group actions on trees. While extremely effective for structural questions in group theory, it is less suited to the systematic construction of group actions with prescribed local…

The Basilica group is a well-known 2-generated weakly branch, but not branch, group acting on the binary rooted tree. Recently a more general form of the Basilica group has been investigated by Petschick and Rajeev, which is an…

Necessary and sufficient conditions are given for boundedness of Hausdorff operators on generalized Hardy spaces $H^p_E(G)$, real Hardy space $H^1_{\mathbb{R}}(G)$, $BMO(G)$, and $BMOA(G)$ for compact Abelian group $G$. Surprisingly, these…

Assume that we are given a coaction \delta of a locally compact group G on a C*-algebra A and a T-valued Borel 2-cocycle \omega on G. Motivated by the approach of Kasprzak to Rieffel's deformation we define a deformation A_\omega of A.…

We consider actions of completely metrisable groups on simplicial trees in the context of the Bass--Serre theory. Our main result characterises continuity of the amplitude function corresponding to a given action. Under fairly mild…

We show that the group of all homeomorphisms of the Basilica fractal coincides with a group of transformations of a certain non-locally finite ribbon tree. Also, we show that Basilica Thompson group defined by Belk and Forrest is dense in…

Let g be a complex, simple Lie algebra with Cartan subalgebra h and Weyl group W. We construct a one-parameter family of flat connections D on h with values in any finite-dimensional h-module V and simple poles on the root hyperplanes. The…
