Let $G$ be a connected graph. A vertex $w$ strongly resolves a pair $u$, $v$ of vertices of $G$ if there exists some shortest $u-w$ path containing $v$ or some shortest $v-w$ path containing $u$. A set $W$ of vertices is a strong resolving…

we obtain a necessary condition for the character degree graph with all of its vertices are odd degree of a finite solvable group G.

We show that if the automorphism group of a projective variety is torsion, then it is finite. Motivated by Lang's conjecture on rational points of hyperbolic varieties, we use this to prove that a projective variety with only finitely many…

We develop the theory of resolvent degree, introduced by Brauer \cite{Br} in order to study the complexity of formulas for roots of polynomials and to give a precise formulation of Hilbert's 13th Problem. We extend the context of this…

Consider a group G and a family $\mathcal{A}$ of subgroups of G. We say that vertex finiteness holds for splittings of G over $\mathcal{A}$ if, up to isomorphism, there are only finitely many possibilities for vertex stabilizers of minimal…

In this work, we establish a relationship between the sum of irreducible character degrees and the number of twisted involutions associated with the automorphisms of a finite group. We develop algorithmic frameworks for evaluating these…

Let G be an algebraic group and let X be a generically free G-variety. We show that X can be transformed, by a sequence of blowups with smooth G-equivariant centers, into a G-variety X' with the following property: the stabilizer of every…

Inspired by a recent work of Y. Mizuno, we show that the DT transformations on a cluster ensemble of finite type admit unique totally positive fixed points, and that the exponents of the linearizations of the DT transformations at the fixed…

We formalize and study several competing notions of versality for an action of a linear algebraic group on an algebraic variety X. Our main result is that these notions of versality are equivalent to various statements concerning rational…

One of the general problems in algebraic geometry is to determine algorithmically whether or not a given geometric object, defined by explicit polynomial equations (e.g. a curve or a surface), satisfies a given property (e.g. has…

A bottleneck of a smooth algebraic variety $X \subset \mathbb{C}^n$ is a pair of distinct points $(x,y) \in X$ such that the Euclidean normal spaces at $x$ and $y$ contain the line spanned by $x$ and $y$. The narrowness of bottlenecks is a…

Recently, two first authors have introduced a group invariant, which is related to the number of elements $x$ and $y$ of a finite group $G$ such that $x\wedge y=1$ in the exterior square $G\wedge G$ of $G$. Research on this probability…

The title refers to the area of research which studies infinite groups using measure-theoretic tools, and studies the restrictions that group structure imposes on ergodic theory of their actions. The paper is a survey of recent developments…

We study truncation compatible families F = (F_m)_{m>=1} over Q[z] through an inverse limit formalism, and we evaluate them at the punctured cyclotomic cosine points alpha_{k,n} = cos(2 pi k/n) with the specialization z equals n-1. For…

The Medvedev degree of a subshift is a dynamical invariant of computable origin that can be used to compare the complexity of subshifts that contain only uncomputable configurations. We develop theory to describe how these degrees can be…

We describe some regular techniques of calculating finite degree invariants of triple points free smooth plane curves $S^1 \to R^2$. They are a direct analog of similar techniques for knot invariants and are based on the calculus of {\em…

Classifying isomorphism classes of group gradings on algebras presents a compelling challenge, particularly within the realms of non-simple and infinite-dimensional algebras, which have been relatively unexplored. This study focuses on a…

Let $G$ be a finite permutation group of degree $n$ and let ${\rm ifix}(G)$ be the involution fixity of $G$, which is the maximum number of fixed points of an involution. In this paper we study the involution fixity of almost simple…

We define the equivariant degree and local degree of a proper $G$-equivariant map between smooth $G$-manifolds when $G$ is a compact Lie group and prove a local to global result. We show the local degree can be used to compute the…

Let $G$ be a finite group, $n$ a positive integer. $\pi(n)$ denotes the set of all prime divisors of $n$ and $\pi(G)=\pi(|G|)$. The prime graph $\Gamma(G)$ of $G$, defined by Grenberg and Kegel, is a graph whose vertex set is $\pi(G)$, two…
