Let $G$ be a finite group and $\mathcal{U} (\mathbb{Z} G)$ the unit group of the integral group ring $\mathbb{Z} G$. We prove a unit theorem, namely a characterization of when $\mathcal{U}(\mathbb{Z}G)$ satisfies Kazhdan's property…

We give a unified proof of property $R_\infty$ for the Higman groups $H_n$ ($n\ge 4$) and for their generalizations studied by Martin and Horbez--Huang. As a key step, we prove that the automorphism groups of these groups are acylindrically…

We prove that if $G$ is a totally bounded abelian group \st\ its dual group $\widehat{G}_p$ equipped with the finite-open topology is a Baire group, then every compact subset of $G$ must be finite. This solves an open question by Chasco,…

We prove that the restricted wreath product ${\mathbb{Z}_n \mathbin{\mathrm{wr}} \mathbb{Z}^k}$ has the $R_\infty$-property, i. e. every its automorphism $\varphi$ has infinite Reidemeister number $R(\varphi)$, in exactly two cases: (1) for…

This work was inspired by two natural questions. The first question is when Lie(G')=Lie(G)', where G is a connected algebraic supergroup defined over a field of characteristic zero. The second question is whether the unipotent radical of…

We prove that for a free product $G$ with free factor system $\mathcal{G}$, any automorphism $\phi$ preserving $\mathcal{G}$, atoroidal (in a sense relative to $\mathcal{G}$) and none of whose power send two different conjugates of…

Consider a smooth connected algebraic group $G$ acting on a normal projective variety $X$ with an open dense orbit. We show that Aut($X$) is a linear algebraic group if so is $G$; for an arbitrary $G$, the group of components of Aut($X$) is…

We show that for any countable homogeneous ordered graph $G$, the conjugacy problem for automorphisms of $G$ is Borel complete. In fact we establish that each such $G$ satisfies a strong extension property called ABAP, which implies that…

Let $G$ be a connected algebraic group. An unrefinable chain of $G$ is a chain of subgroups $G = G_0 > G_1 > \cdots > G_t = 1$, where each $G_i$ is a maximal connected subgroup of $G_{i-1}$. We introduce the notion of the length…

We prove an orbifold conjecture for a solvable automorphism group. Namely, we show that if V is a C_2-cofinite simple vertex operator algebra and G is a finite solvable automorphism group of V, then the fixed point vertex operator…

The purpose of the present paper is to discuss the following conjecture of Fel'shtyn and Hill, which is a generalization of the classical Burnside theorem: Let G be a countable discrete group, f its automorphism, R(f) the number of…

We prove that for any automorphism $\phi$ of the restricted wreath product $\mathbb{Z}_2 \mathrm{wr} \mathbb{Z}^k$ and $\mathbb{Z}_3 \mathrm{wr} \mathbb{Z}^{2d}$ the Reidemeister number $R(\phi)$ is infinite, i.e. these groups have the…

Let $G$ be a locally compact Abelian group, and $w: G\to (0, \infty)$ be a Borel measurable weighted function. In this paper, the algebraic and topological properties of group algebra are studied and assessed. We show that the weighted…

Let $G$ be a group and let $V$ be an algebraic group over an algebraically closed field. We introduce algebraic group subshifts $\Sigma \subset V^G$ which generalize both the class of algebraic sofic subshifts of $V^G$ and the class of…

Given a set $X$, the group $\mathrm{Sym}(X)$ consists of all bijections from $X$ to $X$, and $\mathrm{FSym}(X)$ is the subgroup of maps with finite support i.e. those that move only finitely many points in $X$. We describe the automorphism…

According to Markov, a subset of an abelian group G of the form {x in G: nx=a}, for some integer n and some element a of G, is an elementary algebraic set; finite unions of elementary algebraic sets are called algebraic sets. We prove that…

Let $G=G_1 \ast \ldots \ast G_k \ast F_N$ be a free product of finitely presented groups, where $F_N$ is a free group of rank $N \in \mathbb{N}$. Let $\mathrm{Out}(G,\mathcal{G})$ be the subgroup of $\mathrm{Out}(G)$ preserving the set of…

Let $A$ be a finite-dimensional commutative associative algebra with unity over an algebraically closed field $\mathbb{K}$. The purpose of the paper is to study the solvability of $G_A$, where $G_A$ is the identity component of…

In this note we provide a negative answer to the question: ``Is it true that for every positive rational number $r$ there exists a finite abelian group $G$ such that $|\mathrm{Aut}(G)|/|G| = r$?". We show that if $r = a/b$ is a rational…

A right Engel sink of an element $g$ of a group $G$ is a set ${\mathscr R}(g)$ such that for every $x\in G$ all sufficiently long commutators $[...[[g,x],x],\dots ,x]$ belong to ${\mathscr R}(g)$. (Thus, $g$ is a right Engel element…
