This paper is devoted to the more elementary aspects of the contramodule story, and can be viewed as an extended introduction to the more technically complicated arXiv:1503.05523. Reduced cotorsion abelian groups form an abelian category,…

In this paper we determine all finitely generated abelian groups which are varietal capable with respect to the variety of polynilpotent groups. This result is a vast generalization of the famous Baer's result about capability of finitely…

Locally compact abelian groups are classified in which the sum of any two closed subgroups is itself closed. This amounts to reproving and extending results by Yu.~N.~Mukhin from 1970. Namely we contribute a complete classification of all…

It is proved that centrally essential rings, whose additive groups of finite rank are torsion-free groups of finite rank, are quasi-invariant but not necessarily invariant. Torsion-free Abelian groups of finite rank with centrally essential…

Presentations for the holomorphs of abelian groups of the form $C_{p^n} \times 1^{m}$ for $p$=2 or an odd prime are given. These presentations extend the results given in Burnside's well-known text on finite groups on the holomorphs for the…

In the recent paper by A. A. Klyachko, V. Yu. Miroshnichenko, and A. Yu. Olshanskii, it is proven that the center of any finite strongly verbally closed group is its direct factor. One of the results of the current paper is the…

Let $H$ be a closed subgroup of a regular abelian paratopological group $G$. The group reflexion $G^\flat$ of $G$ is the group $G$ endowed with the strongest group topology, weaker that the original topology of $G$. We show that the…

We study twisted conjugacy classes of the unit element in different groups. Fel'shtyn and Troitsky showed that the twisted conjugacy class of the unit element of an abelian group is a subgroup for every automorphism. The structure is…

Let G be a torsion--free abelian group of finite rank. The automorphism group Aut(G) acts on the set of maximal independent subsets of G. The orbits of this action are the isomorphism classes of indecomposable decompositions of G. G…

Let A be an abelian surface over F_q, the field of q elements. The rational points on A/\F_q form an abelian group A(\F_q) \simeq \Z/n_1\Z \times \Z/n_1 n_2 \Z \times \Z/n_1 n_2 n_3\Z \times\Z/n_1 n_2 n_3 n_4\Z. We are interested in knowing…

This paper introduces the concept of slender generalized groups, extending the classical notion of slender abelian groups to the setting of generalized groups (completely simple semigroups). We establish fundamental properties of slender…

Given a Hopf algebra $A$ graded by a discrete group together with an action of the same group preserving the grading, we define a new Hopf algebra, which we call the graded twisting of $A$. If the action is adjoint, this new Hopf algebra is…

We prove (by a case-by-case analysis) a conjecture of Bernstein/Schwarzman to the effect that quotients of abelian varieties by suitable actions of (complex) reflection groups are weighted projective spaces, and show that this remains true…

We study relatively minimal subgroups in topological groups. We find, in particular, some natural relatively minimal subgroups in unipotent groups which are defined over "good" rings. By "good" rings we mean archimedean absolute valued (not…

We study the growth of torsion in the abelianizations of finite index subgroups in finitely generated metabelian groups. This complements earlier work of Kar, Kropholler and the author which covered the finitely presented amenable groups.

We say a group is finitely annihilated if it is the set-theoretic union of all its proper normal finite index subgroups. We investigate this new property, and observe that it is independent of several other well known group properties. For…

A strict 2-group is a 2-category with one object in which all morphisms and all 2-morphisms have inverses. 2-Groups have been studied in the context of homotopy theory, higher gauge theory and Topological Quantum Field Theory (TQFT). In the…

This document aims to give a self-contained account of the parts of abelian group theory that are most relevant for algebraic topology. It is almost purely expository, although there are some slightly unusual features in the treatment of…

We consider the class $\mathcal{A}_0$ of Abelian block-rigid $CRQ$-groups of ring type. A subgroup $A$ of an Abelian group $G$ is called an \textsf{absolute ideal} of the group $G$ if $A$ is an ideal in any ring on $G$. We describe…

We classify by numerical invariants the finite subgroups $H$ of a primary abelian group $G$ for which every homomorphism or monomorphism of $H$ into $G$, or every endomorphism of $H$, extends to an endomorphism of $G$. We apply these…
