We present an abelianization of the permutation action of the symmetric group S_n on R^n in analogy to the Batyrev abelianization construction for finite group actions on complex manifolds. The abelianization is provided by a particular De…

We study the rational homology of the Deligne--Mumford compactification $\overline{\mathcal M}_{g,n}$ of the moduli space of stable curves via a family of Morse functions, namely the $\text{sys}_T$ functions. Exploiting the geometric and…

We show that the homology of strata of abelian differentials stabilizes in a range where the number of simple zeros is large relative to the homological degree. In this range, we show that the rational cohomology agrees with the restriction…

We discuss the problem of stable conjugacy of finite subgroups of Cremona groups. We show that the group $H^1(G,Pic(X))$ is a stable birational invariant and compute this group in some cases.

We contribute towards the classification programme for Conway groupoids associated to a $2-(n,4,\lambda)$ design. Our main results improve the known bounds for a hole stabilizer to be primitive, or to contain the alternating group, ${\rm…

The aim of this paper is to study the stable birational type of $Hilb^n_X$, the Hilbert scheme of degree $n$ points on a surface $X$. More precisely, it addresses the question for which pairs of positive integers $(n,n')$ the variety…

By examining commensurators of virtually cyclic groups, we show that for each natural number n, any locally finite-by-virtually cyclic group of cardinality aleph_n admits a finite dimensional classifying space with virtually cyclic…

An original non-standard approach to describing the structure of a column stabilizer in a group of $n \times n$ matrices over a polynomial ring or a Laurent polynomial ring of $n$ variables is presented. The stabilizer is described as an…

We prove that existence of a k-rational point can be detected by the stable A^1-homotopy category of S^1-spectra, or even a "rationalized" variant of this category.

Extending the definition of $V$-stability conditions, given by Viviani in a recent preprint, we introduce the notion of universal stability conditions. Building on results by Pagani and Tommasi, we show that fine compactified universal…

A base of a permutation group (X,G) is a subset B of X such that its pointwise stabilizer is the trivial group. A list (x1,x2, ... ,xk) of elements of X is irredundant if each element is not in the pointwise stabilizer of its predecessors.…

We study actions of discrete groups on contractible topological spaces in which either (1) all stabilizers lie in the family of subgroups of prime power order or (2) all stabilizers lie in the family of finite subgroups. We compare the…

We prove an arithmetic regularity lemma for stable subsets of finite abelian groups, generalising our previous result for high-dimensional vector spaces over finite fields of prime order. A qualitative version of this generalisation was…

Let $L$ be a simply-connected simple connected algebraic group over a number field $F$, and $H$ be a semisimple absolutely maximal connected $F$-subgroup of $L$. Under a cohomological condition, we prove an asymptotic formula for the number…

We prove that arbitrary homomorphisms from one of the groups ${\rm Homeo}(\ca)$, ${\rm Homeo}(\ca)^\N$, ${\rm Aut}(\Q,<)$, ${\rm Homeo}(\R)$, or ${\rm Homeo}(S^1)$ into a separable group are automatically continuous. This has consequences…

We prove that the homology of the mapping class group of any 3-manifold stabilizes under connected sum and boundary connected sum with an arbitrary 3-manifold when both manifolds are compact and orientable. The stabilization also holds for…

This paper is devoted to the stabilization of a linear control system $y' = A y + B u$ and its suitable non-linear variants where $(A, \cD(A))$ is an infinitesimal generator of a strongly continuous {\it group} in a Hilbert space $\mH$, and…

Let C_n(M) be the configuration space of n distinct ordered points in M. We prove that if M is any connected orientable manifold (closed or open), the homology groups H_i(C_n(M); Q) are representation stable in the sense of [Church-Farb].…

We investigate the rational cohomology of the quotient of (generalized) braid groups by the commutator subgroup of the pure braid groups. We provide a combinatorial description of it using isomorphism classes of certain families of graphs.…

The homology groups of the automorphism group of a free group are known to stabilize as the number of generators of the free group goes to infinity, and this paper relativizes this result to a family of groups that can be defined in terms…
