Let $FG$ be the group algebra of a finite $p$-group $G$ over a finite field $F$ of positive characteristic $p$. Let $\cd$ be an involution of the algebra $FG$ which is a linear extension of an anti-automorphism of the group $G$ to $FG$. If…

Groups definable in simple theories retain the chain conditions and decomposition properties known from stable groups, up to commensurability. In the small case, if a generic type of G is not foreign to some type q, there is a q-internal…

Let $G$ be a finite group, and let $V$ be a completely reducible faithful $G$-module. It has been known for a long time that if $G$ is abelian, then $G$ has a regular orbit on $V$. In this paper we show that $G$ has an orbit of size at…

Several structural results about permutation groups of finite rank definable in differentially closed fields of characteristic zero (and other similar theories) are obtained. In particular, it is shown that every finite rank definably…

Let $G$ be a locally compact group, and let $A_\cb(G)$ denote the closure of $A(G)$, the Fourier algebra of $G$, in the space of completely bounded multipliers of $A(G)$. If $G$ is a weakly amenable, discrete group such that $\cstar(G)$ is…

A finite group $G$ is said to be admissible over a field $F$ if there exists a division algebra $D$ central over $F$ with a maximal subfield $L$ such that $L/F$ is Galois with group $G$. In this paper we give a complete characterization of…

We finish the classification, begun in two earlier papers, of all simple fusion systems over finite nonabelian $p$-groups with an abelian subgroup of index $p$. In particular, this gives many new examples illustrating the enormous variety…

We study notions such as finite presentability and coherence, for partially ordered abelian groups and vector spaces. Typical results are the following: (i) A partially ordered abelian group G is finitely presented if and only…

Every infinite group $G$ of regular cardinality can be partitioned $G=A_1\cup A_2$ so that $G\neq FA_1$, $G\neq FA_2$ for every subset $F\subset G$ of cardinality $|F|<|G|$. The first author asked whether the same is true for each group $G$…

We study the groups of rational points of abelian varieties defined over a finite field $ \mathbb{F}_q$ whose endomorphism rings are commutative, or, equivalently, whose isogeny classes are determined by squarefree characteristic…

The concept of a C-approximable group, for a class of finite groups C, is a common generalization of the concepts of a sofic, weakly sofic, and linear sofic group. Glebsky raised the question whether all groups are approximable by finite…

In this article we study definable functions in tame expansions of algebraically closed valued fields. For a given definable function we have two types of results: of type (I), which hold at a neighborhood of infinity, and of type (II),…

Let F be a finite field with q elements, let A be a finite dimensional F-algebra and let J=J(A) be the Jacobson radical of A. Then G=1+J is a p-group, where p is the characteristic of F. We refer to G as an F-algebra group. A subgroup H of…

We continue the study of a class of topological $\mathcal{L}$-fields endowed with a generic derivation $\delta$, focussing on describing definable groups. We show that one can associate to an $\mathcal{L}_{\delta}$ definable group a type…

We study the automorphism group of the algebraic closure of a substructure A of a pseudo-finite field F, or more generally, of a bounded PAC field F. This paper answers some of the questions of [1], and in particular that any finite group…

In this paper, we completely classify the finite $p$-groups $G$ such that $\Phi(G')G_3\le C_p^2$, $\Phi(G')G_3\le Z(G)$ and $G/\Phi(G')G_3$ is minimal non-abelian. This paper is a part of the classification of finite $p$-groups with a…

We prove that every finitely presentable group G arises as the fundamental group of an orientable 3-complex obtained from a hyperbolic link complement, by coning each boundary torus of the link exterior to a distinct point. We define the…

Let $\{G_i :i\in\N\}$ be a family of finite Abelian groups. We say that a subgroup $G\leq \prod\limits_{i\in \N}G_i$ is \emph{order controllable} if for every $i\in \mathbb{N}$ there is $n_i\in \mathbb{N}$ such that for each $c\in G$, there…

Let $\mathbb F$ be an algebraically closed field, $G$ be an abelian group, and let $A$ and $B$ be arbitrary finite-dimensional $G$-graded simple algebras over $\mathbb F$. We prove that $A$ and $B$ are isomorphic if, and only if, they…

By an $\ell$-group $G$ we mean a lattice-ordered abelian group. This paper is concerned with the category $\FP$ of finitely presented {\it unital} $\ell$-groups, those $\ell$-groups having a distinguished order-unit $u$. Using the duality…
