We show an analogue of Jordan's theorem for algebraic groups defined over a field $\mathbb k$ of arbitrary characteristic. As a consequence, a Jordan-type property holds for the automorphism group of any projective variety over $\mathbb k$.

Assuming a particular case of Borisov--Alexeev--Borisov conjecture, we prove that finite subgroups of the automorphism group of a finitely generated field over Q have bounded orders. Further, we investigate which algebraic varieties have…

We study automorphism groups and birational automorphism groups of compact complex surfaces. We show that the automorphism group of such surface $X$ is always Jordan, and the birational automorphism group is Jordan unless $X$ is birational…

Let $X$ be a compact complex space in Fujiki's Class $C$. We show that the group $Aut(X)$ of all biholomorphic automorphisms of $X$ has the Jordan property: there is a (Jordan) constant $J = J(X)$ such that any finite subgroup $G\le Aut(X)$…

Let $W$ be a quasiprojective variety over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. Assume that $W$ is birational to a product of a smooth projective variety $A$ and the projective line. We prove that if $A$ contains no rational…

We prove that the group of birational automorphisms of a geometrically irreducible algebraic surface over a finite field is Jordan. We show that the analogous statement fails in higher dimensions. Finally, we prove that groups of birational…

We study automorphism and birational automorphism groups of varieties over fields of positive characteristic from the point of view of Jordan and $p$-Jordan property. In particular, we show that the Cremona group of rank $2$ over a field of…

Let $X$ be a non-uniruled compact K\"ahler space of dimension 3. We show that the group of bimeromorphic automorphisms of $X$ is Jordan. More generally, the same result holds for any compact K\"ahler space admitting a quasi-minimal model.

We use a recent advance in birational geometry to prove new lower bounds on the essential dimension of some finite groups.

We investigate automorphism groups of planar graphs. The main result is a complete recursive description of all abstract groups that can be realized as automorphism groups of planar graphs. The characterization is formulated in terms of…

We prove that the image of the pluricanonical representation of a group of bimeromorphic automorphisms of a complex manifold has bounded finite subgroups. As a consequence, we show that the group of bimeromorphic automorphisms of an…

We show the Jordan property for regional fundamental groups of klt singularities of fixed dimension. Furthermore, we prove the existence of effective simultaneous index one covers for $n$-dimensional klt singularities. We give an…

We prove the Jordan property for groups of bimeromorphic selfmaps of three-dimensional compact K\"ahler varieties of non-negative Kodaira dimension and positive irregularity.

The notion of a topological Jordan decomposition of a compact element of a reductive p-adic group has proven useful in many contexts. In this paper, we generalise it to groups defined over fairly general discretely-valued fields and prove…

We determine three-dimensional algebraic varieties whose groups of birational selfmaps do not satisfy the Jordan property.

We prove that the group of automorphisms of any quasi-projective surface $S$ in finite characteristic has the $p$-Jordan property.

For a geometrically rational surface X over an arbitrary field of characteristic different from 2 and 3 that contains all roots of 1, we show that either X is birational to a product of a projective line and a conic, or the group of…

Models of all the gradings on the exceptional simple Lie algebras induced by Jordan subgroups of their groups of automorphisms are provided.

We prove that the automorphism group of a compact complex parallelizable manifold is Jordan. In the course of the proof we show that outer automorphism groups of cocompact lattices in complex Lie groups have bounded finite subgroups.

We give explicit bounds for Jordan constants of groups of birational automorphisms of rationally connected threefolds over fields of zero characteristic, in particular, for Cremona groups of ranks 2 and 3.
