We prove that the crossed product $C^*$-algebra $C^*_r(\Gamma,\partial\Gamma)$ of a free group $\Gamma$ with its boundary $\partial\Gamma$ naturally sits between the reduced group $C^*$-algebra $C^*_r\Gamma$ and its injective envelope…

Building on previous work by Lambert, Plagne and the third author, we study various aspects of the behavior of additive bases in infinite abelian groups and semigroups. We show that, for every infinite abelian group $T$, the number of…

For a finite discrete topological space $X$ with at least two elements, a nonempty set $\Gamma$, and a map $\varphi:\Gamma\to\Gamma$, $\sigma_\varphi:X^\Gamma\to X^\Gamma$ with $\sigma_\varphi((x_\alpha)_{\alpha\in\Gamma})=…

We prove that groups for which every countable subgroup is free ($\aleph_1$-free groups) are n-slender, cm-slender, and lcH-slender. In particular every homomorphism from a completely metrizable group to an $\aleph_1$-free group has an open…

Johnson's characterization of amenable groups states that a discrete group $\Gamma$ is amenable if and only if $H_b^{n \geq 1}(\Gamma; V) = 0$ for all dual normed $\mathbb{R}[\Gamma]$-modules V. In this paper, we extend the previous result…

Let $G$ be a finitely generated group that can be written as an extension \[ 1 \longrightarrow K \stackrel{i}{\longrightarrow} G \stackrel{f}{\longrightarrow} \Gamma \longrightarrow 1 \] where $K$ is a finitely generated group. By a study…

Let $\Gamma$ be a compact Polish group of finite topological dimension. For a countably infinite subset $S\subseteq \Gamma$, a domatic $\aleph_0$-partition (for its Schreier graph on $\Gamma$) is a partial function…

Given an automorphism $\phi:\Gamma\to \Gamma$, one has an action of $\Gamma$ on itself by $\phi$-twisted conjugacy, namely, $g.x=gx\phi(g^{-1})$. The orbits of this action are called $\phi$-twisted conjugacy classes. One says that $\Gamma$…

For a fixed finite solvable group $G$ and number field $K$, we prove an upper bound for the number of $G$-extensions $L/K$ with restricted local behavior (at infinitely many places) and ${\rm inv}(L/K)<X$ for a general invariant $"{\rm…

Fix a positive integer $d$ and let $\Gamma_d$ be the class of finite groups without sections isomorphic to the alternating group $A_d$. The groups in $\Gamma_d$ were studied by Babai, Cameron and P\'{a}lfy in the 1980s and they determined…

Let $M$ be a transitive model of $ZFC$ and let ${\bf B}$ be a $M$-complete Boolean algebra in $M.$ (In general a proper class.) We define a generalized notion of forcing with such Boolean algebras, $^*$forcing. (A $^*$ forcing extension of…

In a semigroup $S$ with fixed $c\in S$, one can construct a new semigroup $(S,\cdot_c)$ called a \emph{variant} by defining $x\cdot_c y:=xcy$. Elements $a,b\in S$ are \emph{primarily conjugate} if there exist $x,y\in S^1$ such that $a=xy,…

Given a finite group $\Gamma$, we prove results on the distribution of the prime-to-$q|\Gamma|$ part of fundamental groups of $\Gamma$-covers of the projective line $\mathbb P^1_{\mathbb F_q}$ over a finite field $\mathbb F_q$ as…

Fixing a subgroup $\Gamma$ in a group $G$, the commensurability growth function assigns to each $n$ the cardinality of the set of subgroups $\Delta$ of $G$ with $[\Gamma: \Gamma \cap \Delta][\Delta : \Gamma \cap \Delta] = n$. For pairs…

Let $H$ be a torsion-free $\delta$-hyperbolic group with respect to a finite generating set $S$. Let $a_1,..., a_n$ and $a_{1*},..., a_{n*}$ be elements of $H$ such that $a_{i*}$ is conjugate to $a_i$ for each $i=1,..., n$. Then, there is a…

In this paper, we will study presentations of the continuous full group $\Gamma_A$ of a one-sided topological Markov shift $(X_A,\sigma_A)$ for an irreducible matrix $A$ with entries in $\{0,1\}$ as a generalization of Higman-Thompson…

If $X$ is a non-degenerate vector field on ${\bf R}$ and $H=-X^2$ we examine conditions for the closure of $H$ to generate a continuous semigroup on $L_\infty$ which extends to the $L_p$-spaces. We give an example which cannot be extended…

In this paper, we establish sharp thresholds on the independence number of the comaximal subgroup graph $\Gamma(G)$ that guarantee solvability, supersolvability, and nilpotency of the underlying group $G$. Specifically: \begin{itemize}…

We investigate effective properties of uncountable free abelian groups. We show that identifying free abelian groups and constructing bases for such groups is often computationally hard, depending on the cardinality. For example, we show,…

Fix a commutative monoid $(T,+,0)$, a commutative monoid $(\Gamma,+,0_\Gamma)$, and a map \[ (a,\alpha,b,\beta,c)\longmapsto a\,\alpha\,b\,\beta\,c\in T \] which is additive in each variable and associative in the ternary sense. A left…
