We show that a complete flat pseudo-Riemannian homogeneous manifold with non-abelian linear holonomy is of dimension at least 14. Due to an example constructed in a previous article by Oliver Baues and the author, this is a sharp bound.…
The standard topological representation of a Boolean algebra via the clopen sets of a Stone space requires a nonconstructive choice principle, equivalent to the Boolean Prime Ideal Theorem. In this paper, we describe a choice-free…
We obtain an explicit description of the endomorphisms of free-abelian by free groups together with a characterization of when they are injective and surjective. As a consequence we see that free-abelian by free groups are Hopfian and not…
We comment van Douwen's problems on the Bohr topology of the abelian groups raised in his paper (The maximal totally bounded group topology on G and the biggest minimal G-space for Abelian groups G) as well as the steps in the solution of…
Let $\FP(X)$ be the free paratopological group on a topological space $X$ in the sense of Markov. In this paper, we study the group $\FP(X)$ on a $P_\alpha$-space $X$ where $\alpha$ is an infinite cardinal and then we prove that the group…
We explore the relations between the Boolean Satisfiability Problem with $n$ Boolean variables and the orthogonal group $\mbox{O}(n)$. We show that all $2^n$ possible solutions induce involutions of $\mathbb{R}^n$ that lie in the compact,…
We give a solution stated in the title to problem 3 of part 1 of the problems listed in the book of Eklof and Mekler [EM],(p.453). There, in pp. 241-242, this is discussed and proved in some cases. The existence of strongly lambda-free ones…
In this paper, we work on the pro-nilpotent group topology of a free group. First we investigate the closure of the product of finitely many subgroups of a free group in the pro-nilpotent group topology. We present an algorithm for the…
Our purpose is to visualize the pronilpotent completion of a finitely generated free group as a certain subgroup in the free Lie group.
We show how a theorem of Sullivan provides a precise mathematical statement of a 3d holographic principle, that is, the hyperbolic structure of a certain class of 3d manifolds is completely determined in terms of the corresponding…
We use topological methods to study the maximal subgroups of the free idempotent generated semigroup on a biordered set. We use these to give an example of a free idempotent generated semigroup with maximal subgroup isomorphic to the free…
We prove that the outer automorphism group of a free group of countably infinite rank is complete.
We show that the hypercomplete $\infty$-topos associated with any replete topos is Postnikov complete, positively answering a question of Bhatt and Scholze; this will be deduced from the Milnor sequences for sheaves of spaces on replete…
The results of Culler and Shalen for 2,3 or 4-free hyperbolic 3-manifolds are contingent on properties specific to and special about rank two subgroups of a free group. Here we determine what construction and algebraic information is…
An element of a finitely generated non-Abelian free group F(X) is said to be filling if that element has positive translation length in every very small action of F(X) on an $\mathbb{R}$-tree. We give a proof that the set of filling…
We study the class of Banach spaces $X$ such that the locally convex space $(X,\mu(X,Y))$ is complete for every norming and norm-closed subspace $Y \subset X^*$, where $\mu(X,Y)$ denotes the Mackey topology on $X$ associated to the dual…
The homological properties of localizations and completions of metabelian groups are studied. It is shown that, for $R=\mathbb Q$ or $R=\mathbb Z/n$ and a finitely presented metabelian group $G$, the natural map from $G$ to its…
We prove that a large class of metrizable group topologies for subgroups of $\mathbb{R}^n$ and the completions of the subgroups are locally isometric to, respectively, metrizable group topologies for $\mathbb{Z}$ and their completions,…
In 1999 Chas and Sullivan showed that the homology of the free loop space of an oriented manifold admits the structure of a Batalin-Vilkovisky algebra. In this paper we give a direct description of this Batalin-Vilkovisky algebra in the…
This paper presents a study of separation axioms and sobriety of bitopological spaces from the point of view of fuzzy topology via identifying bitopological spaces with topological spaces valued in the Boolean algebra of four elements. A…
