Suppose $C$ is a smooth projective curve of genus 1 over a perfect field $F$, and $E$ is its Jacobian. In the case that $C$ has no $F$-rational points, so that $C$ and $E$ are not isomorphic, $C$ is an $E$-torsor with a class $\delta(C)\in…

We show that every involutive Hopf monoid in a complete and finitely cocomplete symmetric monoidal category gives rise to invariants of oriented surfaces defined in terms of ribbon graphs. For every ribbon graph this yields an object in the…

We introduce the notion of torsion-simple objects in an abelian category: these are the objects which are always either torsion or torsion-free with respect to any torsion pair. We present some general results concerning their properties,…

We show that the closure of the compactly supported mapping class group of an infinite type surface is not perfect and that its abelianization contains a direct summand isomorphic to an uncountable direct sum of rationals. We also extend…

We study the groups of rational points of abelian varieties defined over a finite field $ \mathbb{F}_q$ whose endomorphism rings are commutative, or, equivalently, whose isogeny classes are determined by squarefree characteristic…

Generalized Bott manifolds (over $\mathbb C$ and $\mathbb R$) have been defined by Choi, Masuda and Suh. In this article we extend the results of arXiv:1609.05630 on the topology of real Bott manifolds to generalized real Bott manifolds. We…

Let $G_1$ and $G_2$ be torsion groups. We prove that the monoids of product-one sequences over $G_1$ and over $G_2$ are isomorphic if and only if the groups $G_1$ and $G_2$ are isomorphic. This was known before for abelian groups.

We provide some characterizations of precompact abelian groups $G$ whose dual group $G_p^\wedge$ endowed with the pointwise convergence topology on elements of $G$ contains a nontrivial convergent sequence. In the special case of precompact…

Let p be a prime. A p-adic functional on a torsion-free abelian group G is a group homomorphism from G to the p-adic integers. The group of all such p-adic functionals is viewed as a p-adic dual group of G, and is studied from the point of…

The infinitesimal counterpart of a Lie groupoid is its Lie algebroid. As a vector bundle, it is given by the source vertical tangent bundle restricted to the identity bisection. Its sections can be identified with the invariant vector…

We generalize known results on summands of completely decomposable and separable torsion-free abelian groups to modules over h-local Pr\"ufer domains. Over such domains summands of completely decomposable torsion-free modules are again…

For any finite group G and integer i, let $\mathcal{H}^i(G)$ be the set of all the isomorphism classes of the Galois cohomology groups $\hat{H}^i(K/k,E_K)$, where K/k runs over all the unramified G-extension of number fields and E_K denotes…

We show that, for a sheet or a Lusztig stratum S containing spherical conjugacy classes in a connected reductive algebraic group G over an algebraically closed field in good characteristic, the orbit space S/G is isomorphic to the quotient…

We give several criteria to decide whether a given tensor category is the abelian envelope of a fixed symmetric monoidal category. As a main result we prove that the category of finite-dimensional representations of a semisimple simply…

The main goal of the article is to study the Pontryagin duality for Abelian $s$- and $sb$-groups. Let $G$ be an infinite Abelian group and $X$ be the dual group of the discrete group $G_d$. We show that a dense subgroup $H$ of $X$ is…

We use Fra\" iss\' e theoretic methods to construct a universal and ultrahomogeneous abelian separable metric group. We show that such a group is a universal abelian Polish group, thus we provide another proof of a result already discovered…

A global representation is a compatible collection of representations of the outer automorphism groups of the groups belonging to some collection of finite groups $\mathscr{U}$. Global representations assemble into an abelian category…

It is well-known that if we gauge a $\mathbb{Z}_n$ symmetry in two dimensions, a dual $\mathbb{Z}_n$ symmetry appears, such that re-gauging this dual $\mathbb{Z}_n$ symmetry leads back to the original theory. We describe how this can be…

We prove that on closed Riemannian manifolds with infinite abelian, but not cyclic, fundamental group, any isometry that is homotopic to the identity possesses infinitely many invariant geodesics. We conjecture that the result remains true…

I prove that the generic type of the free nonabelian group has infinite weight (strengthening non superstability of the free group).
