A $\Gamma$-labeled graph is an oriented graph with edges invertibly labeled by a group $\Gamma$. We prove a structure theorem for $\Gamma$-labeled graphs which forbid a fixed $\Gamma$-labeled graph as an immersion, for any finite $\Gamma$.…

A large class of orbifold quiver gauge theories admits the action of finite Heisenberg groups of the form \prod_i Heis(Z_{q_i} x Z_{q_i}). For an Abelian orbifold generated by \Gamma, the Z_{q_i} shift generator in each Heisenberg group is…

Let $U^-_q = U^-_q(\mathfrak g)$ be the negative part of the quantum group associated to a finite dimensional simple Lie algebra $\mathfrak g$, and $\sigma : \mathfrak g \to \mathfrak g$ be the automorphism obtained from the diagram…

Tutte initiated the study of nowhere-zero flows and proved the following fundamental theorem: For every graph $G$ there is a polynomial $f$ so that for every abelian group $\Gamma$ of order $n$, the number of nowhere-zero $\Gamma$-flows in…

We construct the first known examples of infinite subgroups of the outer automorphism group of Out(A_Gamma), for certain right-angled Artin groups A_Gamma. This is achieved by introducing a new class of graphs, called focused graphs, whose…

Bivariant (equivariant) K-theory is the standard setting for non-commutative topology. We may carry over various techniques from homotopy theory and homological algebra to this setting. Here we do this for some basic notions from…

Suppose $\Gamma$ is a finite simple graph. If $D$ is a dominating set of $\Gamma$ such that each $x\in D$ is contained in the set of vertices of an odd cycle of $\Gamma$, then we say that $D$ is an odd dominating set for $\Gamma$. For a…

A connected, locally finite graph $\Gamma$ is a Cayley--Abels graph for a totally disconnected, locally compact group $G$ if $G$ acts vertex-transitively with compact, open vertex stabilizers on $\Gamma$. Define the minimal degree of $G$ as…

This is an expository work presenting in detail the proof of the structure theorem for divisible abelian groups. A divisible abelian group is an abelian group that satisfies nD=D for all natural n. The theorem states that any divisible…

Ancel, Dobrowolski, and Grabowski (Studia Math., 1994) proved that every countable discrete subgroup of the additive group of a normed space is free Abelian, hence isomorphic to the direct sum of a certain number of copies of the additive…

This article focuses on the study of zero-sum invariants of finite non-abelian groups. We address two main problems: the first centers on the ordered Davenport constant and the second on Gao's constant. We establish a connection between the…

Given an evolution algebra associated to a connected finite graph $\Gamma$, we exhibit a free action of the group of symmetries of $\Gamma$ on the set of automorphisms of the algebra. This allows us to explicitly describe this set and we…

The fixing number of a graph $G$ is the smallest cardinality of a set of vertices $S$ such that only the trivial automorphism of $G$ fixes every vertex in $S$. The fixing set of a group $\Gamma$ is the set of all fixing numbers of finite…

Let $G$ be an abelian group, and let $\mathcal F (G)$ be the free commutative monoid with basis $G$. For $\Omega \subset \mathcal F (G)$, define the universal zero-sum invariant ${\mathsf d}_{\Omega}(G)$ to be the smallest integer $\ell$…

A matching in a group G is a bijection f from a subset A to a subset B in G such that af(a) does not belong to A for all a in A. The group G is said to have the matching property if, for any finite subsets A,B in G of same cardinality with…

Let p be a fixed prime. An Abelian p-group is an Abelian group (not necessarily finitely generated) in which every element has for its order some power of p. The countable Abelian p-groups are classified by Ulm's theorem, and Khisamiev…

Let G be a finite group. To every smooth G-action on a compact, connected and oriented surface we can associate its data of singular orbits. The set of such data becomes an Abelian group B_G under the G-equivariant connected sum. We will…

We prove a modified version for a conjecture of Weiss from 2004. Let $G$ be a semisimple real algebraic group defined over $\mathbb{Q}$, $\Gamma$ be an arithmetic subgroup of $G$. A trajectory in $G/\Gamma$ is divergent if eventually it…

A finite group is called $\psi$-divisible iff $\psi(H)|\psi(G)$ for any subgroup $H$ of a finite group $G$. Here, $\psi(G)$ is the sum of element orders of $G$. For now, the only known examples of such groups are the cyclic ones of…

For a graph $\Gamma$ and group $G$, $G^\Gamma$ is the subgroup of $G^{|\Gamma|}$ generated by elements with $g$ in the coordinates corresponding to $v$ and its neighbors in $\Gamma$. There is a natural epimorphism $G^\Gamma \to…
