We undertake the study of profinite quandles. We provide several constructions of profinite quandles from profinite groups, and from other profinite quandle. We characterize which subquandles of profinite quandles are again profinite.…

We prove that an Alexander quandle of prime order is generated by any pair of distinct elements. Furthermore, we prove for such a quandle that any ordered pair of distinct elements can be sent to any other such pair by an automorphism of…

We describe inertial endomorphisms of an abelian group $A$, that is endomorphisms $\varphi$ with the property $|(\varphi(X)+X)/X|<\infty$ for each $X\le A$. They form a ring containing multiplications, the so-called finitary endomorphisms…

We prove that a finitely generated group contains a sequence of non-trivial elements which converge to the identity in every compact homomorphic image if and only if the group is not virtually abelian.

A quandle is an algebraic structure which attempts to generalize group conjugation. These structures have been studied extensively due to their connections with knot theory, algebraic combinatorics, and other fields. In this work, we…

In this paper we find a necessary and sufficient condition for a finite nilpotent group to have an abelian central automorphism group.

We establish a canonical correspondence between connected quandles and certain configurations in transitive groups, called quandle envelopes. This correspondence allows us to efficiently enumerate connected quandles of small orders, and…

For a mixing shift of finite type, the associated automorphism group has a rich algebraic structure, and yet we have few criteria to distinguish when two such groups are isomorphic. We introduce a stabilization of the automorphism group,…

We define a class of quandle-like structures called pseudoquandles and analyze some of their algebraic properties.

In the present paper, we introduce the new construction of quandles. For a group $G$ and its subset $A$ we construct a quandle $Q(G,A)$ which is called the $(G,A)$-quandle and study properties of this quandle. In particular, we prove that…

Given a finite quandle, we introduce a quandle homotopy invariant of knotted surfaces in the 4-sphere, modifying that of classical links. This invariant is valued in the third homotopy group of the quandle space, and is universal among the…

In this short note we prove that a graph product $G_\Gamma$ of finitely generated abelian groups is semicomplete -- that is the kernel of the natural homomorphism ${\rm Aut}(G_\Gamma)\to{\rm Aut}(G_\Gamma^{ab})$ induced by the…

We show that any Kahler extension of a finitely generated abelian group by a surface group of genus g at least 2 is virtually a product. Conversely, we prove that any homomorphism of an even rank, finitely generated abelian group into the…

We continue the study of the quandle of homomorphisms into a medial quandle begun in Crans and Nelson. We show that it suffices to consider only medial source quandles, and therefore the structure theorem of Jedlicka et al. provides a…

Given a quandle, we can construct a symmetric quandle called the symmetric double of the quandle. We show that the (co)homology groups of a given quandle are isomorphic to those of its symmetric double. Moreover, quandle coloring numbers…

For almost finite groupoids, we study how their homology groups reflect dynamical properties of their topological full groups. It is shown that two clopen subsets of the unit space has the same class in H_0 if and only if there exists an…

We consider those projective bundles (or Brauer-Severi varieties) over an abelian variety that are homogeneous, i.e., invariant under translation. We describe the structure of these bundles in terms of projective representations of…

The aim of this paper is to provide a new characterization of isomorphism classes of generalized Alexander quandles in terms of the underlying groups and their automorphisms. This extends the previous result [4, Theorem 1.4]. Additionally,…

A group morphism is constructed, which can be realized as the induced morphism of fundamental groups from a holomorphic map between compact Kahler manifolds, but can not be realized by a holomorphic map between smooth projective varieties.…

We study analogues of Tate's conjecture on homomorphisms for abelian varieties when the ground field is finitely generated over an algebraic closure of a finite field. Our results cover the case of abelian varieties without nontrivial…
