We define a family of groups that include the mapping class group of a genus g surface with one boundary component and the integral symplectic group Sp(2g,Z). We then prove that these groups are finitely generated. These groups, which we…
We show that the cohomology ring of a finite-dimensional complex pointed Hopf algebra with an abelian group of group-like elements is finitely generated. Our strategy has three major steps. We first reduce the problem to the finite…
In this paper, we give a complete description of the representations of all upper triangular complex Kleinian subgroups of PSL(3,C). In https://doi.org/10.1007/s00574-021-00254-9 we show that any solvable group is virtually triangularizable…
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…
We construct an uncountable sequence of groups acting uniformly properly on hyperbolic spaces. We show that only countably many of these groups can be virtually torsion-free. This gives new examples of groups acting uniformly properly on…
We refer to $d(G)$ as the minimal cardinality of a generating set of a finite group $G$, and say that $G$ is $d$-generated if $d(G)\leq d$. A transitive permutation group $G$ is called $\frac{3}{2}$-transitive if a point stabilizer…
For simple twisted group algebra over a group $G$, if $G^{\shortmid}$ is Hall subgroup of $G$ then the semi-center is simple. Simple twisted groups algebras correspond to groups of central type. We classify all groups of central type of…
A typical protein structure is a compact packing of connected alpha-helices and/or beta-strands. We have developed a method for generating the ensemble of compact structures a given set of helices and strands can form. The method is tested…
We prove that Hausdorff limit of topological minimal sets (with finitely generated coefficient group) are topologically minimal. The key idea is to reduce the homology group on the space to the homology group on the sphere, and reduce the…
We study a super group of the group of Riordan arrays, where the elements of the group are given by a triple of power series. We show that certain subsets are subgroups, and we identify a normal subgroup whose cosets correspond to Riordan…
In [3] is was shown that for any group $G$ whose rank (i.e., minimal number of generators) is at most 3, and any finite index subgroup $H\leq G$ with index $[G:H]\geq rank(G)$, one can always find a left-right transversal of $H$ which…
The Klein group contains only four elements. Nevertheless this little group contains a number of remarkable entry points to current highways of modern representation theory of groups. In this paper, we shall describe all possible ways in…
We construct homogeneous flat pseudo-Riemannian manifolds with non-abelian fundamental group. In the compact case, all homogeneous flat pseudo-Riemannian manifolds are complete and have abelian linear holonomy group. To the contrary, we…
The group of real 4 by 4 upper triangular matrices with 1s on the diagonal has a left-invariant subRiemannian (or Carnot-Caratheodory) structure whose underlying distribution corresponds to the superdiagonal. We prove that the associated…
The Ptolemy groupoid is a combinatorial groupoid generated by elementary moves on marked trivalent fatgraphs with three types of relations. Through the fatgraph decomposition of Teichm\"uller space, the Ptolemy groupoid is a mapping class…
We construct infinitely many linearly independent quasi-homomorphisms on the mapping class group of a Riemann surface with genus at least two which vanish on a handlebody subgroup. As a corollary, we disprove a conjecture of Reznikov on…
A generating pair $x, y$ for a group $G$ is said to be \textbf{\textit{symmetric}} if there exists an automorphism $\varphi_{x,y}$ of $G$ inverting both $x$ and $y$, that is, $x^{\varphi_{x,y}}=x^{-1}$ and $y^{\varphi_{x,y}}=y^{-1}$.…
A maximal abelian normal subgroup A in a nilpotent group N is self-centralizing. This makes their role an important one in determining the structure of the nilpotent group. For example if A is finite then N is also finite. In the free…
Let M be a moduli space of stable sheaves on a K3 or Abelian surface S. We express the class of the diagonal in the cartesian square of M in terms of the Chern classes of a universal sheaf. Consequently, we obtain generators of the…
The aim of this paper is to find generating sets of commuting involutions and use them to explicitly construct minimal representations of Clifford algebras $Cl(n)_{p,q}$. By results of [HL] and [LW], we know the dimension of such minimal…
