We prove that if $F$ is a finitely generated abelian group of orientation preserving $C^1$ diffeomorphisms of $R^2$ which leaves invariant a compact set then there is a common fixed point for all elements of $F.$ We also show that if $F$ is…

Let $q$ be a prime and $A$ an elementary abelian $q$-group acting as a coprime group of automorphisms on a profinite group $G$. We show that if $A$ is of order $q^2$ and some power of each element in $C_G(a)$ is Engel in $G$ for any $a\in…

We prove a conjecture of Peter Neumann from 1966, predicting that every finite non-regular primitive permutation group of degree $n$ contains an element fixing at least one point and at most $n^{1/2}$ points. In fact, we prove a stronger…

Let $p$ be a prime number. A longstanding conjecture asserts that every finite non-abelian $p$-group has a non-inner automorphism of order $p$. In this paper, we prove that the conjecture is true when a finite non-abelian $p$-group $G$ has…

Let $p$ be an odd prime and let $J_o(X)$, $J_r(X)$ and $J_e(X)$ denote the three different versions of Thompson subgroups for a $p$-group $X$. In this article, we first prove an extension of Glauberman's replacement theorem. Secondly, we…

Gromov showed that for fixed, arbitrarily large C, any uniformly C-Lipschitz affine action of a random group in his graph model on a Hilbert space has a fixed point. We announce a theorem stating that more general affine actions of the same…

For a finite group $A$ with normal subgroup $G$, a subgroup $U$ of $G$ is an $A$-prime-power-covering subgroup if $U$ meets every $A$-conjugacy-class of elements of $G$ of prime power order. It is conjectured that $|G:U|$ is bounded by some…
