We define a new family of graph invariants, studying the topology of the moduli space of their geometric realizations in Euclidean spaces, using a limiting procedure reminiscent of Floer homology. Given a labeled graph $G$ on $n$ vertices…
In this paper we continue our investigation of the global categorical symmetries that arise when gauging finite higher groups and their higher subgroups with discrete torsion. The motivation is to provide a common perspective on the…
We give a new proof of the recent K\"unneth theorem for periodic topological cyclic homology (TP) of smooth and proper dg categories over perfect fields of characteristic p>0 due to Blumberg and Mandell. Our result is slightly stronger and…
Magnetic vortices and skyrmions are typically characterized by distinct topological invariants. This work presents a unified approach for the topological classification of these textures, encompassing isolated objects and configurations…
A cyclic subgroup graph of a group $G$ is a graph whose vertices are cyclic subgroups of $G$ and two distinct vertices $H_1$ and $H_2$ are adjacent if $H_1\leq H_2$, and there is no subgroup $K$ such that $H_1<K<H_2$. M.T\u{a}rn\u{a}uceanu…
Let $\Gamma$ be a finite group, let $\theta$ be an involution of $\Gamma$, and let $\rho$ be an irreducible complex representation of $\Gamma$. We bound $\dim \rho^{\Gamma^{\theta}}$ in terms of the smallest dimension of a faithful…
We give a "limit-free formula" simplifying the computation of the topological entropy for topological automorphisms of totally disconnected locally compact groups. This result allows us to extend several basic properties of the topological…
Inspired by work surrounding Igusa's local zeta function, we introduce topological representation zeta functions of unipotent algebraic groups over number fields. These group-theoretic invariants capture common features of established…
We generalize the theory of the second invariant cohomology group $H^2_{\rm inv}(G)$ for finite groups $G$, developed in [Da2,Da3,GK], to the case of affine algebraic groups $G$, using the methods of [EG1,EG2,G]. In particular, we show that…
The number of subgroups and the number of cyclic subgroups are natural combinatorial invariants of a finite group. We investigate how restrictions on these quantities, together with the number of distinct prime divisors of $|G|$, enforce…
Let $G$ be a finite group and let $c(G)$ be the number of cyclic subgroups of $G$. We study the function $\alpha(G) = c(G)/|G|$. We explore its basic properties and we point out a connection with the probability of commutation. For many…
Let $N_g$ be the non-orientable surface with genus $g$, $\text{MCG}(N_g)$ be the mapping class group of $N_g$, $\mathcal{T}(N_g)$ be the index 2 subgroup generated by all Dehn twists of $\text{MCG}(N_g)$. We prove that for odd genus,…
Groups of almost upper triangular infinite matrices with entries indexed by integers are studied. It is shown that, when the matrices are over a finite field, these groups admit a nondiscrete totally disconnected, locally compact group…
We investigate the combinatorics and geometry of permutation polytopes associated to cyclic permutation groups, i.e., the convex hulls of cyclic groups of permutation matrices. We give formulas for their dimension and vertex degree. In the…
In this article we generalize the theory of subgroup graphs of subgroups of free groups to finite index subgroups $H$ of finitely generated groups $G$. We study and prove various properties of $H$ in relation to its subgroup graph…
Let $\Gamma$ be a torsion free cocompact lattice in $\aut(\cl T_1)\times\aut(\cl T_2)$, where $\cl T_1$, $\cl T_2$ are trees whose vertices all have degree at least three. The group $H_2(\Gamma, \bb Z)$ is determined explicitly in terms of…
Given a permutation group $G$ on a finite set $\Omega$, let $G^{(k)}$ denote the $k$-closure of $G$, that is, the largest permutation group on $\Omega$ having the same orbits in the induced action on $\Omega^k$ as $G$. Recall that a group…
Given a group $G = H_1 \ast_A H_2$ which is the free product of two finitely generated groups $H_1$ and $H_2$ with amalgamation over a cyclic subgroup $A$ which is malnormal in $G$, we study relations between the structure of its subgroups…
Hans Zassenhaus conjectured that every torsion unit of the integral group ring of a finite group $G$ is conjugate within the rational group algebra to an element of the form $\pm g$ with $g\in G$. This conjecture has been disproved recently…
Let E/F be a quadratic number (resp. p-adic) field extension, and F' an odd degree cyclic field extension of F. We establish a base-change functorial lifting of automorphic (resp. admissible) representations from the unitary group U(3,E/F)…
