This paper reproduces the text of a part of the Author's DPhil thesis. It gives a proof of the classification of non-trivial, finite homogeneous geometries of sufficiently high dimension which does not depend on the classification of the…

In this paper, in the first we give definitions of some classes of division rings which strictly contain the class of centrally finite division rings. One of our main purpose is to construct non-trivial examples of rings of new defined…

We consider in general terms dynamical systems with finite-dimensional, non-simply connected configuration-spaces. The fundamental group is assumed to be finite. We analyze in full detail those ambiguities in the quantization procedure that…

We introduce and investigate a class of profinite groups defined via extensions of centralizers analogous to the extensively studied class of finitely generated fully residually free groups, that is, limit groups (in the sense of Z. Sela).…

We prove a characterization of monomial projective representations of finitely generated nilpotent groups. We also characterize polycyclic groups whose projective representations are finite dimensional.

The structure of groups for which certain sets of commutator subgroups are finite is investigated, with a particular focus on the relationship between these groups and those with finite derived subgroup.

We give two examples of a finitely generated subgroup of a free group and a subset, closed in the profinite topology of a free group, such that their product is not closed in the profinite topology of a free group.

We characterize finite groups G generated by orthogonal transformations in a finite-dimensional Euclidean space V whose fixed point subspace has codimension one or two in terms of the corresponding quotient space V/G with its quotient…

We construct the first examples of residually finite non-exact groups. The construction is based on author's earlier construction of groups containing isometrically expanders using a graphical small cancellation.

We study groups having the property that every non-cyclic subgroup contains its centralizer. The structure of nilpotent and supersolvable groups in this class is described. We also classify finite $p$-groups and finite simple groups with…

We give an example of a finitely presented simple group containing a finitely generated subgroup which is not finitely presented.

In this paper we establish results that will be required for the study of the algebraic geometry of partially-commutative groups. We define classes of groups axiomatised by sentences determined by a graph. Among the classes which arise this…

We introduce some special presentations on finite groups, that we call "diagonal double Kodaira structures" and whose existence is equivalent to the existence of some special Kodaira fibred surfaces, that we call "diagonal double Kodaira…

Problem 20.21 of Mazurov and Khukhro (Unsolved Problems in Group Theory: The Kourovka Notebook, 20th Issue, 2022), contributed by M.~Conder and attributed to G.~Verret, asks whether there exists a finite group $G$ with two normal subgroups…

We give examples of finite quantum permutation groups which arise from the twisting construction or as bicrossed products associated to exact factorizations in finite groups. We also give examples of finite quantum groups which are not…

We prove that if a finite group scheme $G$ over a field $k$ has essential dimension one, then it embeds in $PGL_{2/k}$. We use this to give an explicit classification of all infinitesimal group schemes of essential dimension one over any…

We study a family of finitely generated residually finite groups. These groups are doubles $F_2*_H F_2$ of a rank-$2$ free group $F_2$ along an infinitely generated subgroup $H$. Varying $H$ yields uncountably many groups up to isomorphism.

A partial group with $n+1$ elements is, when regarded as a symmetric simplicial set, of dimension at most $n$. This dimension is $n$ if and only if the partial group is a group. As a consequence of the first statement, finite partial groups…

We characterize finite $p$-groups $G$ of order up to $p^7$ for which the group of central automorphisms fixing the center element-wise is of minimum possibe order.

Given a reflection $r$ in a Coxeter group $W$ (possibly of infinite rank), we consider the subgroup of $W$ generated by the reflections in $W$ having (-1)-eigenvectors orthogonal to the (-1)-eigenvector of $r$. In this paper, we determine…
