Let $G$ be a subgroup of $S_n$, the symmetric group of degree $n$. For any field $k$, $G$ acts naturally on the rational function field $k(x_1,x_2,\ldots,x_n)$ via $k$-automorphisms defined by $\sigma\cdot x_i=x_{\sigma(i)}$ for any…

We generalize to the super context, the known fact that if an affine algebraic group $G$ over a commutative ring $k$ acts freely (in an appropriate sense) on an affine scheme $X$ over $k$, then the dur sheaf $X\tilde{\tilde{/}}G$ of…
Let $(\mathfrak{g},[p])$ be a finite dimensional restricted Lie algebra over a perfect field $\mathbbm{k}$ of characteristic $p\!\ge \!3$. By combining methods from recent work of Benson-Carlson \cite{BC20} with those of \cite{CF21,Fa17} we…
We prove a decomposition theorem for the equivariant K-theory of actions of affine group schemes G of finite type over a field on regular separated noetherian algebraic spaces, under the hypothesis that the actions have finite geometric…

Let G be a split simple group of type G_2 over a field k, and let g be its Lie algebra. Answering a question of Colliot-Th\'el\`ene, Kunyavski\u{i}, Popov, and Reichstein, we show that the function field k(g) is generated by algebraically…
We consider endomorphism actions of arbitrary discrete semigroups on a connected metrizable topological group G. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for expansiveness of such actions when G is a Lie group or a compact…
Let K be the quotient field of a complete local domain of dimension 2 with a separably closed residue field. Let G be a finite group of order not divisible by char(K). Then G is admissible over K if and only if its Sylow subgroups are…
Let $G$ be a group. The subsets $A_1,\ldots,A_k$ of $G$ form a complete factorization of group $G$ if if they are pairwise disjoint and each element $g\in G$ is uniquely represented as $g=a_1\ldots a_k$, with $a_i\in A_i$. We prove the…
Let $G$ be a finite subgroup of $GL_4(\bm{Q})$. The group $G$ induces an action on $\bm{Q}(x_1,x_2,x_3,x_4)$, the rational function field of four variables over $\bm{Q}$. Theorem. The fixed subfield…
Let G be a connected reductive linear algebraic group over a field k of characteristic p>0. Let p be large enough with respect to the root system. We show that if a finitely generated commutative k-algebra A with G-action has good…
We say that a group $G$ of local (maybe formal) biholomorphisms satisfies the uniform intersection property if the intersection multiplicity $(\phi (V), W)$ takes only finitely many values as a function of $G$ for any choice of analytic…
We show that a group acting on a non-trivial tree with finite edge stabilizers and icc vertex stabilizers admits a faithful and highly transitive action on an infinite countable set. This result is actually true for infinite vertex…
Let G be a Lie group over a local field of positive characteristic which admits a contractive automorphism f (i.e., the forward iterates f^n(x) of each group element x converge to the neutral element 1). We show that then G is a torsion…
Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. An element F from k(x_1,...,x_n) is called a closed rational function if the subfield k(F) is algebraically closed in the field k(x_1,...,x_n). We prove that a rational function…
We characterize rational actions of the additive group on algebraic varieties defined over a field of characteristic zero in terms of a suitable integrability property of their associated velocity vector fields. This extends the classical…
A measure preserving action of a countably infinite group \Gamma is called totally ergodic if every infinite subgroup of \Gamma acts ergodically. For example, all mixing and mildly mixing actions are totally ergodic. This note shows that if…

We describe complete simplicial toric varieties on which a unipotent group acts with a finite number of orbits. We also provide a complete list of such varieties in the case where the dimension is equal to 2.
