Let ${\bf Sr}(n, 1)$ denote the ai-semiring variety defined by the identity $x^n\approx x$, where $n>1$. We characterize all subdirectly irreducible members of a semisimple subvariety of ${\bf Sr}(n, 1)$. Based on this result, we prove that…

Small cancellation groups form an interesting class with many desirable properties. It is a well-known fact that small cancellation groups are generic; however, all previously known results of their genericity are asymptotic and provide no…

Let $A\subset B$ be an extension of commutative reduced rings and $M\subset N$ an extension of positive commutative cancellative torsion-free monoids. We prove that $A$ is subintegrally closed in $B$ and $M$ is subintegrally closed in $N$…

A group $\Gamma$ is said to be periodic if for any $g$ in $\Gamma$ there is a positive integer $n$ with $g^n=id$. We first prove that a finitely generated periodic group acting on the 2-sphere $\SS^2$ by $C^1$-diffeomorphisms with a finite…

We explore the concept of conjugation between subgroupoids, providing several characterizations of the conjugacy relation (Theorem A in {\S}1.2). We show that two finite groupoid-sets, over a locally strongly finite groupoid, are…

We define pseudo-Garside groups and prove a theorem about them parallel to Garside's result on the word problem for the usual braid groups. The main novelty is that the set of simple elements can be infinite. We introduce a group B=B(Z^n)…

The class of automaton groups is a rich source of the simplest examples of infinite Burnside groups. However, there are some classes of automata that do not contain such examples. For instance, all infinite Burnside automaton groups in the…

Let $n,d \in \mathbb N$ and $w \in \mathbb F_n$ be non-trivial. We prove that the relatively free group of rank $d$ in the variety defined by the group law $w$ has a largest anabelian finite quotient and estimate its size. Here, a finite…

In the present paper we develop a small cancellation theory for associative algebras with a basis of invertible elements. Namely, we study quotients of a group algebra of a free group and introduce three axioms for the corresponding…

For a finite group we introduce a particular central extension, the unitary cover, having minimal exponent among those satisfying the projective lifting property. We obtain new bounds for the exponent of the Schur multiplier relating to…

We prove that an outer automorphism of the free group is exponentially growing if and only if it induces an outer automorphism of infinite order of free Burnside groups with sufficiently large odd exponent.

We study infinite groups interpretable in three families of valued fields: $V$-minimal, power bounded $T$-convex, and $p$-adically closed fields. We show that every such group $G$ has unbounded exponent and that if $G$ is dp-minimal then it…

Let $\gamma_n=[x_1,\dots,x_n]$ be the $n$th lower central word. Denote by $X_n$ the set of $\gamma_n$-values in a group $G$ and suppose that there is a number $m$ such that $|g^{X_n}|\leq m$ for each $g\in G$. We prove that…

The purpose of the present paper is to prove for finitely generated groups of type I the following conjecture of A.Fel'shtyn and R.Hill, which is a generalization of the classical Burnside theorem. Let G be a countable discrete group, f one…

We prove that if the order of a splitting automorphism of free Burnside group~$B(m,n)$ of odd period~$n\ge1003$ is a prime power, then the automorphism is inner. Thus, we give an affirmative answer to the question on the coincidence of…

We prove that the finiteness of a finitely generated category of irreducible algebraic varieties over a field of characteristic zero is decidable. We also obtain a Burnside finiteness criterion for such a category, with applications to…

The bifree double Burnside ring $B^\Delta(G,G)$ of a finite group $G$ has a natural anti-involution. We study the group $B^\Delta_\circ(G,G)$ of orthogonal units in $B^\Delta(G,G)$. It is shown that this group is always finite and contains…

We show that there is significant cancellation in certain exponential sums over small multiplicative subgroups of finite fields, giving an exposition of the arguments by Bourgain and Chang.

This note studies the Burnside problem for homeomorphism groups of compact connected manifolds. For surfaces, we prove that the identity component of the homeomorphism group is torsion-free precisely when the surface is not the sphere,…

We construct novel examples of finitely generated groups that exhibit seemingly-contradicting probabilistic behaviors with respect to Burnside laws. We construct a finitely generated group that satisfies a Burnside law, namely a law of the…
