Using the theory of group action, we first introduce the concept of the automorphism group of an exponential family or a graphical model, thus formalizing the general notion of symmetry of a probabilistic model. This automorphism group…
A little-known and highly economical characterization of the real interval [0, 1], essentially due to Freyd, states that the interval is homeomorphic to two copies of itself glued end to end, and, in a precise sense, is universal as such.…
We study automorphisms $\alpha$ of a totally disconnected, locally compact group $G$ which are expansive in the sense that, for some identity neighbourhood $U$, the sets $\alpha^n(U)$ (for integers $n$) intersect in the trivial group.…
We study the topological structure and the topological dynamics of groups of homeomorphisms of scattered spaces. For a large class of them (including the homeomorphism group of any ordinal space or of any locally compact scattered space),…
A notion of a quantum automorphism group of a finite quantum group, generalising that of a classical automorphism group of a finite group, is proposed and a corresponding existence result proved.
Drawing inspiration from [BBF15], we construct a family of unbounded quasi-trees for a connected closed oriented surface $S_g$ of genus $g\geq 2$, upon which the group $\mathrm{Homeo}_0(S_g)$ acts coboundedly by isometries. As an…
We study the group of almost-periodic homeomorphisms of the real line. Our main result states that an action of a finitely generated group on the real line without global fixed point is conjugated to an almost-periodic action without almost…
In the paper the foundation of the $k$-orbit theory is developed. The theory opens a new simple way to the investigation of groups and multidimensional symmetries. The relations between combinatorial symmetry properties of a $k$-orbit and…
Assume that $X$ and $Y$ are arithmetic schemes, i.e., integral schemes of finite types over $Spec(\mathbb{Z})$. Then $X$ is said to be quasi-galois closed over $Y$ if $X$ has a unique conjugate over $Y$ in some certain algebraically closed…
Transformation monoids carry a canonical topology --- the topology of point-wise convergence. A closed transformation monoid $\mathfrak{M}$ is said to have automatic homeomorphicity with respect to a class $\mathcal{K}$ of structures, if…
For $k,s\geq2$, the $s$-stable Kneser graphs are the graphs with vertex set the $k$-subsets $S$ of $\{1,\ldots,n\}$ such that the circular distance between any two elements in $S$ is at least $s$ and two vertices are adjacent if and only if…
A regular semisimple Hessenberg variety $\mathrm{Hess}(S,h)$ is a smooth subvariety of the full flag variety $\mathrm{Fl}(\mathbb{C}^n)$ associated with a regular semisimple matrix $S$ of order $n$ and a function $h$ from $\{1,2,\dots,n\}$…
The class of self-similar 2-manifolds consists of manifolds exhibiting a type of homogeneity akin to the 2-sphere and the Cantor set, and includes both the 2-sphere and the 2-sphere with a Cantor set removed. This chapter aims to provide a…
Deligne constructed a remarkable local system on $\bP^1-\{0,\infty\}$ attached to a family of Kloosterman sums. Katz calculated its monodromy and asked whether there are Kloosterman sheaves for general reductive groups and which automorphic…
Kaleidoscopic groups are a class of permutation groups recently introduced by Duchesne, Monod, and Wesolek. Starting with a permutation group $\Gamma$, the kaleidoscopic construction produces another permutation group $\mathcal{K}(\Gamma)$…
Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, $F$ be an algebraically closed extension of $k$ of transcendence degree one, and $G$ be the group of automorphisms over $k$ of the field $F$. The purpose of this note is to…
A $q$-analogue of a $t$-design is a set $S$ of subspaces (of dimension $k$) of a finite vector space $V$ over a field of order $q$ such that each $t$ subspace is contained in a constant $\lambda$ number of elements of $S$. The smallest…
Given a number field K, we consider families of critically separable rational maps of degree d over K possessing a certain fixed-point and multiplier structure. With suitable notions of isomorphism and good reduction between rational maps…
In this paper, we consider the automorphisms of fine curve graphs restricted to continuously $k$-differentiable curves. We show that for closed surfaces with genus at least 2, they are induced by homeomorphisms of the surface.
We determine all the normal subgroups of the group of C^r diffeomorphisms of R^n, r = 1,2,...,infinity, except when r=n+1 or n=4, and also of the group of homeomorphisms of R^n (r=0). We also study the group A_0 of diffeomorphisms of an…
