We revisit the topic of power-free morphisms, focusing on the properties of the class of complementary morphisms. Such morphisms are defined over a $2$-letter alphabet, and map the letters 0 and 1 to complementary words. We prove that every…

A theorem of Gekeler compares the number of non-isomorphic automorphic representations associated with the space of cusp forms of weight $k$ on $\Gamma_0(N)$ to a simpler function of $k$ and $N$, showing that the two are equal whenever $N$…

Parikh-collinear morphisms have the property that all the Parikh vectors of the images of letters are collinear, i.e., the associated adjacency matrix has rank 1. In the conference DLT-WORDS 2023 we showed that fixed points of…

We like to build Abelian groups (or R-modules) which on the one hand are quite free, say $\aleph_{\omega + 1}$-free, and on the other hand, are complicated in suitable sense. We choose as our test problem having no non-trivial homomorphism…

We study the lexicographically least infinite $a/b$-power-free word on the alphabet of non-negative integers. Frequently this word is a fixed point of a uniform morphism, or closely related to one. For example, the lexicographically least…

We apply Angehrn-Siu-Helmke's method to estimate basepoint freeness thresholds of higher dimensional polarized abelian varieties. We showed that a conjecture of Caucci holds for very general polarized abelian varieties in the moduli spaces…

We show that the problem of whether the fixed point of a morphism avoids Abelian $k$-powers is decidable under rather general conditions

The group isomorphism problem asks whether two given groups are isomorphic or not. Whereas the case where both groups are abelian is well understood and can be solved efficiently, very little is known about the complexity of isomorphism…

For any natural n, we construct an aleph_n-free abelian groups which have few homomorphisms to Z . For this we use ``aleph_n-free (n+1)-dimensional black boxes''. The method is relevant to e.g. construction of aleph_n-free abelian groups…

For every natural number k we introduce the notion of k-th order convolution of functions on abelian groups. We study the group of convolution preserving automorphisms of function algebras in the limit. It turns out that such groups have…

We study progression-free sets in the abelian groups $G=(\mathbb{Z}_m^n,+)$. Let $r_k(\mathbb{Z}_m^n)$ denote the maximal size of a set $S \subset \mathbb{Z}_m^n$ that does not contain a proper arithmetic progression of length $k$. We give…

In this paper we investigate fixed-point numbers and entropies of endomorphisms on abelian varieties. It was shown quite recently that the number of fixed-points of an iterated endomorphism on a simple complex torus is either periodic or…

In this paper we undertake the general study of the Abelian complexity of an infinite word on a finite alphabet. We investigate both similarities and differences between the Abelian complexity and the usual subword complexity. While the…

Let $A$ be a finite non-abelian simple Mal'cev algebra, such as for example a finite simple non-abelian group or a finite simple non-zero ring. We show that the automorphism group of a filtered Boolean power of $A$ by the countable atomless…

In \cite{BH20} an elegant choice-free construction of a canonical extension of a boolean algebra $B$ was given as the boolean algebra of regular open subsets of the Alexandroff topology on the poset of proper filters of $B$. We make this…

Carpi (1993) and Lepisto (1994) proved independently that smooth words are cube-free for the alphabet {1, 2}, but nothing is known on whether for the other 2-letter alphabets, smooth words are k-power-free for some suitable positive integer…

We prove new barrier results in arithmetic complexity theory, showing severe limitations of natural lifting (aka escalation) techniques. For example, we prove that even optimal rank lower bounds on $k$-tensors cannot yield non-trivial lower…

We deal with some pcf investigations mostly motivated by abelian group theory problems and deal their applications to test problems (we expect reasonably wide applications). We prove almost always the existence of aleph_omega-free abelian…

We elucidate the geometry of the polynomial formulation of the non-abelian Stueckelberg mechanism. We show that a natural off-shell nilpotent BRST differential exists allowing to implement the constraint on the sigma field by means of BRST…

We study the interaction between the group law on an abelian variety and the additive structure induced on its image under a morphism to projective space. Let $A/F$ be a simple abelian variety, $f:A \rightarrow \mathbb{P}^n$ be a morphism…
