We discuss the connection between various orders on the class of all the ultrafilters and certain compactness properties of abstract logics and of topological spaces. We present a model theoretical characterization of Comfort order. We…

We study the existence of invariant metrics with holonomy $G_{2(2)}^* \subset SO(4,3)$ on compact nilmanifolds, i.e. on compact quotients of nilpotent Lie groups by discrete subgroups. We prove that, up to isomorphism, there exists only one…

For a countably infinite group $\Gamma$, let $\mathcal{W}_\Gamma$ denote the space of all weak equivalence classes of measure-preserving actions of $\Gamma$ on atomless standard probability spaces, equipped with the compact metrizable…

We prove that, for any infinite-type surface $S$, the integral homology of the closure of the compactly-supported mapping class group $\overline{\mathrm{PMap}_c(S)}$ and of the Torelli group $\mathcal{T}(S)$ is uncountable in every positive…

We establish variants of the Lefschetz hyperplane section theorem for the integral tropical homology groups of tropical hypersurfaces of toric varieties. It follows from these theorems that the integral tropical homology groups of…

We show, finitely generated rational $\mathsf{VIC}_{\mathbb Q}$-modules and $\mathsf{SI}_{\mathbb Q}$-modules are uniformly representation stable and all their submodules are finitely generated. We use this to prove two conjectures of…

Using the concept of algebraically closed groups, we prove that there is a countable torsion free group with exactly two conjugacy classes.

We detect topological semigroups that are topological paragroups, i.e., are isomorphic to a Rees product of a topological group over topological spaces with a continuous sandwich function. We prove that a simple topological semigroup $S$ is…

The filtration on the infinite symmetric product of spheres by the number of factors provides a sequence of spectra between the sphere spectrum and the integral Eilenberg-Mac Lane spectrum. This filtration has received a lot of attention…

Working in the framework of Borel reducibility, we study various notions of embeddability between groups. We prove that the embeddability between countable groups, the topological embeddability between (discrete) Polish groups, and the…

Let $S$ be a semitopological semigroup and $\mathcal{CB}(S)$ denotes the $C^*$-algebra of all bounded complex valued continuous functions on $S$ with uniform norm. A function $f\in \mathcal{CB}(S)$ is left multiplicative \linebreak…

A cohesive power of a computable structure is an effective ultrapower where a cohesive set acts as an ultrafilter. Let $\omega$, $\zeta$, and $\eta$ denote the respective order-types of the natural numbers, the integers, and the rationals.…

Under Martin's Axiom we construct a Boolean countably compact topological group whose square is not countably pracompact.

We prove that the countable product of supercomplete spaces having a countable closed cover consisting of partition-complete subspaces is supercomplete with respect to its metric-fine coreflection. Thus, countable products of…

We study compactness for nonnegative solutions of the fourth order constant $Q$-curvature equations on smooth compact Riemannian manifolds of dimension $\ge 5$. If the $Q$-curvature equals $-1$, we prove that all solutions are universally…

We first introduce and study two new classes of subsets in $T_0$ spaces - $\omega$-Rudin sets and $\omega$-well-filtered determined sets lying between the class of all closures of countable directed subsets and that of irreducible closed…

If $\mathcal P$ is a family of filters over some set $I$, a topological space $X$ is \emph{sequencewise $\mathcal P$-\brfrt compact} if, for every $I$-indexed sequence of elements of $X$, there is $F \in \mathcal P$ such that the sequence…

For a locally compact group G and a compact subgroup K, the corresponding Hecke algebra consists of all continuous compactly supported complex functions on G that are K-bi-invariant. There are many examples of totally disconnected locally…

Suppose G is a topological group containing a (closed) topological copy of the Frechet-Urysohn fan. If G is a perfectly normal sequential space (a normal k-space) then every closed metrizable subset in $G$ is locally compact. Applying this…

A cohesive power of a structure is an effective analog of the classical ultrapower of a structure. We start with a computable structure, and consider its countable ultrapower over a cohesive set of natural numbers. A cohesive set is an…
