Strongly zero-dimensional topological groups $G_1$, $G_2$, and $G$ such that $G_1\times G_2$ has positive covering dimension and $G$ contains a closed subgroup of positive covering dimension are constructed. Moreover, all finite powers of…

We study the solvable groups $G$ that have an irreducible character $\chi\in \Irr(G)$ such that $\chi \bar{\chi}$ has at most two non-principal irreducible constituents.

We study the structure of the category of representations of $\mathbf{FA}$, the category of finite sets and all maps, mostly working over a field of characteristic zero. This category is not semi-simple and exhibits interesting features. We…

An element $g$ of a finite group $G$ is said to be vanishing in $G$ if there exists an irreducible character $\chi$ of $G$ such that $\chi(g)=0$; in this case, $g$ is also called a zero of $G$. The aim of this paper is to obtain structural…

We show that an infinite group is definable in any non trivial geometric $C$-minimal structure which is definably maximal and does not have any definable bijection between a bounded interval and an unbounded one in its canonical tree. No…

We use an interpretation of projective planes to show the inherent nondualisability of some finite semigroups. The method is sufficiently flexible to demonstrate the nondualisability of (asymptotically) almost all finite semigroups as well…

In this paper we prove that free solvable groups have finite Krull dimension. In fact, this is true for much wider class of solvable groups, termed rigid groups. Along the way we study the algebraic structure of the limit solvable groups…

We introduce a wide class of countable groups, called properly proximal, which contains all non-amenable bi-exact groups, all non-elementary convergence groups, and all lattices in non-compact semi-simple Lie groups, but excludes all inner…

For certain uncountable cardinals $\kappa$ we produce a group of cardinality $\kappa$ which is freely indecomposable, strongly $\kappa$-free, and whose abelianization is free abelian of rank $\kappa$. The construction takes place in…

We define the notion of computability of F{\o}lner sets for finitely generated amenable groups. We prove, by an explicit description, that the Kharlampovich group, a finitely presented solvable group with unsolvable word problem, has…

In the first part, we prove that the dominion (in the sense of Isbell) of a subgroup of a finitely generated nilpotent group is trivial in the category of all nilpotent groups. In the second part, we show that the dominion of a subgroup of…

In this paper we study irreducible tensor products of representations of alternating groups in characteristics 2 and 3. In characteristic 3 we completely classify irreducible tensor products, while in characteristic 2 we completely classify…

Let $K$ be a global function field of characteristic $p$, and let $\Gamma$ be a finite-index subgroup of an arithmetic group defined with respect to $K$ and such that any torsion element of $\Gamma$ is a $p$-torsion element. We define…

Finite elements, which are well-known and studied in the framework of vector lattices, are investigated in $\ell$-algebras, preferably in $f$-algebras, and in product algebras. The additional structure of an associative multiplication leads…

We construct the first examples of residually finite non-exact groups. The construction is based on author's earlier construction of groups containing isometrically expanders using a graphical small cancellation.

Products, multiplicative Chern characters, and finite coefficients, are unarguably among the most important tools in algebraic K-theory. Although they admit numerous different constructions, they are not yet fully understood at the…

It is well known that if $G$ is a countable amenable group and $G \curvearrowright (Y, \nu)$ factors onto $G \curvearrowright (X, \mu)$, then the entropy of the first action must be greater than or equal to the entropy of the second action.…

We prove that, consistently with ZFC, no ultraproduct of countably infinite (or separable metric, non-compact) structures is isomorphic to a reduced product of countable (or separable metric) structures associated to the Fr\'echet filter.…

Using techniques at the intersection of deformation/rigidity theory, geometric group theory, and the theory of $C^*$-algebras, we construct a continuum of nonamenable groups $G$ that can be completely reconstructed from their reduced…

In this paper we initiate a study of first-order rich groups, i.e., groups where the first-order logic has the same power as the weak second order logic. Surprisingly, there are quite a lot of finitely generated rich groups, they are…
