In the study of discontinuous groups for non-Riemannian homogeneous spaces, the idea of "continuous analogue" gives a powerful method (T. Kobayashi [Math. Ann. 1989]). For example, a semisimple symmetric space G/H admits a discontinuous…

Not any nonsingular equation over a metabelian group has solution in a larger metabelian group. However, any nonsingular equation over a solvable group with a subnormal series with abelian torsion-free quotients has a solution in a larger…

Topological algebras have properties that extend naturally to those of topological groups [8, 9], but is it the case that semi-direct products exist as in the category of groups? Firstly, we express concepts in categorical language that…

Let $G$ be an amenable group. We define and study an algebra $\mathcal{A}_{sn}(G)$, which is related to invariant means on the subnormal subgroups of $G$. For a just infinite amenable group $G$, we show that $\mathcal{A}_{sn}(G)$ is…

Supersolubility of a finite group $G=\langle A,B\rangle$ with the nilpotent derived subgroup $G^\prime$ is established under the condition that the subgroups $A$ and $B$ are both subnormal and supersoluble.

Plante-Thurston proved that every nilpotent subgroup of $\Diff^2(S^1)$ is abelian. One of our main results is a sharp converse: $\Diff^1(S^1)$ contains every finitely-generated, torsion-free nilpotent group.

Let $\be$ be a Borel subalgebra of a complex simple Lie algebra $\g$. An ideal of $\be$ is called ad-nilpotent, if it is contained in $[\be,\be]$. We give several descriptions of the normalizer of an ad-nilpotent ideal: using the weight of…

A map is a 2-cell decomposition of an orientable closed surface. A dessin is a bipartite map with a fixed colouring of vertices. A dessin is regular if its group of colour- and orientation-preserving automorphisms acts transitively on the…

It follows from the work of Kapovitch and Wilking that a closed manifold with nonnegative Ricci curvature has an almost nilpotent fundamental group. Leftover questions and conjectures have asked if in this context the fundamental group is…

We show that a class of algebras is closed under the taking of homomorphic images and direct products if and only if the class consists of all algebras that satisfy a set of (generally simultaneous) equations. For classes of regular…

We show that relative Property (T) for the abelianization of a nilpotent normal subgroup implies relative Property (T) for the subgroup itself. This and other results are a consequence of a theorem of independent interest, which states that…

Consider a Lie group $\mathbb{G}$ with a normal abelian subgroup $\mathbb{A}$. Suppose that $\mathbb{G}$ acts on a Hamiltonian fashion on a symplectic manifold $(M,\omega)$. Such action can be restricted to a Hamiltonian action of…

Let A be an associative algebra of arbitrary dimension over a field F and G a finite soluble group of automorphisms of A oforder n, prime to the characteristic of F. We prove that if the fixed-point subalgebra of A under the action of G…

The famous Tits' alternative states that a linear group either contains a nonabelian free group or is soluble-by-(locally finite). We study in this paper similar alternatives in pseudofinite groups. We show for instance that an…

In this paper, we determine the structure of the nilpotent multipliers of all pairs $(G,N)$ of finitely generated abelian groups where $N$ admits a complement in $G$. Moreover, some inequalities for the nilpotent multipliers of pairs of…

Let $n>0$ be an integer and $\mathcal{X}$ be a class of groups. We say that a group $G$ satisfies the condition $(\mathcal{X},n)$ whenever in every subset with $n+1$ elements of $G$ there exist distinct elements $x,y$ such that $<x,y>$ is…

We find a short equational basis for the variety of $3$-supernilpotent loops. We also present a conceptually simple proof that $k$-nilpotence and $k$-supernilpotence are equivalent for groups. Connections between $3$-supernilpotent loops,…

The concept of breadth has been used in the classification of p-groups and nilpotent Lie algebras. In this paper, we investigate this notion for finite-dimensional solvable Lie algebras. Our main focus is to characterize solvable Lie…

It is shown that finite groups in which the order of the product of every pair of elements of co-prime order is the product of the orders, is nilpotent.

For a non-empty class of groups $\cal L$, a finite group $G = AB$ is said to be an $\cal L$-connected product of the subgroups $A$ and $B$ if $\langle a, b\rangle \in \cal L$ for all $a \in A$ and $b \in B$. In a previous paper, we prove…
