We show that all finitely generated free-by-cyclic groups are conjugacy separable: if a finitely generated group $G$ surjects onto $\mathbb{Z}$ with free kernel, then for every pair of non-conjugate elements $g,h\in G$, there exists a…

We give an upper bound for the essential dimension of a smooth unipotent algebraic group over an arbitrary field. We also show that over a field $k$ which is finitely generated over a perfect field, a smooth unipotent algebraic $k$-group is…

We show that Nichols algebras of most simple Yetter-Drinfeld modules over the projective special linear group over a finite field, corresponding to non-semisimple orbits, have infinite dimension. We spell out a new criterium to show that a…

We prove that every right-angled Artin group occurs as a finite-index subgroup of the outer automorphism group of another right-angled Artin group. We furthermore show that the latter group can be chosen in such a way that the quotient is…

We prove that the subgroup graph of a finite group $G$ is regular if and only if $G$ is cyclic with square-free order.

We construct groups G that are virtually torsion-free and have virtual cohomological dimension strictly less than the minimal dimension for any model for the classifying space for proper actions of G. They are the first examples that have…

We consider the structure of a finite groups having a normal series whose factors have bicyclic Sylow subgroups. In particular, we investigated groups of odd order and $A_4$-free groups with this property. Exact estimations of the derived…

Let $k$ be a field of arbitrary characteristic. Let $S$ be a singular surface defined over $k$ with multiple rational curve singularities and suppose that the Chow group of zero cycles of its normalisation $\tilde{S}$ is finite dimensional.…

We prove several results on the model theory of Artin groups, focusing on Artin groups which are ``far from right-angled Artin groups''. The first result is that if $\mathcal{C}$ is a class of Artin groups whose irreducible components are…

A classification of (countable) direct limits of finite dimensional involution simple associative algebras over an algebraically closed field of arbitrary characteristic is obtained. This also classifies the corresponding dimension groups.…

We characterize the ``best'' model geometries for the class of virtually free groups, and we show that there is a countable infinity of distinct ``best'' model geometries in an appropriate sense--these are the maximally symmetric trees. The…

We propose a simple criterion to know if an abelian variety $A$ defined over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ is cyclic, i.e., it has a cyclic group of rational points; this criterion is based on the endomorphism ring End$_{\mathbb{F}_q}(A)$.…

We focus on two aspects of cyclic orbit codes: invariants under equivalence and quasi-optimality. Regarding the first aspect, we establish a connection between the codewords of a cyclic orbit code and a certain linear set on the projective…

A group is called matricial field (MF) if it admits finite dimensional approximate unitary representations which are approximately faithful and approximately contained in the left regular representation. This paper provides a new class of…

We find a condition on the underlying graph of an Artin group that fully determines if it is subgroup separable. As a consequence, an Artin group is subgroup separable if and only if it can be obtained from Artin groups of ranks at most 2…

In this article, we give a necessary and sufficient condition for embedding a finite index subgroup of Artin's braid group into the mapping class group of a connected orientable surface.

Motivated by some known problems concerning combinatorial structures associated with finite one-dimensional affine permutation groups, we study subgroups which are closed in $\operatorname{\Gamma{L}}_1(q)$. This brings us to a description…

We prove a technical result, showing that the existence of a closable unbounded dual system in the sense of Voiculescu is equivalent to the finiteness of free Fisher information. This approach allows one to give a purely operator-algebraic…

Let $S_n$ denote a symmetric group, $\chi$ an irreducible character of $S_n$, and $g\in S_n$ an element which decomposes into $k$ disjoint cycles, where $1$-cycles are included. Then $|\chi(g)|\le k!$, and this upper bound is sharp for…

Let K be a cyclic Galois extension of degree f over k and T a generator of the Galois group. For any v=(v_1,... , v_m)\in K^m such that v is linearly independent over k, and any 0< d < m the Gabidulin-like code C(v, T , d) is a maximum rank…
