We study $\mathbb{E}_\infty$-monoids on which a prime $p$ acts invertibly, which we call $p$-perfect, in the non-group-complete situation. In particular, we prove that in many examples, they almost embed in their group-completion. We…

For a Kan complex with a vertex, we have the notion of its simplicial homotopy groups. In this paper, for a weak complicial set in the sense of Verity with a vertex, we construct monoids which are a generalization of simplicial homotopy…

We adapt the notion of an algebraic theory to work in the setting of quasicategories developed recently by Joyal and Lurie. We develop the general theory at some length. We study one extended example in detail: the theory of commutative…

We exhibit a finitely presented group whose second cohomology contains a weakly bounded, but not bounded, class. As an application, we disprove a long-standing conjecture of Gromov about bounded primitives of differential forms on universal…

In the paper we complete a case by case proof of Reeder's Conjecture started in our previous work, proving the conjecture for simple Lie algebras of type $D$ and for the exceptional cases.

If $\mathcal{C}$ is a cocomplete monoidal category in which tensoring from both sides preserves coequalizers, then the category of monoids over $\mathcal{C}$ is cocomplete. The same holds if $\mathcal{C}$ has regular factorizations and…

We revisit our construction of the Thompson groups from the polycyclic inverse monoids in the light of new research. Specifically, we prove that the Thompson group $G_{n,1}$ is the group of units of a Boolean inverse monoid $C_{n}$ called…

We prove a Jordan decomposition theorem for minimal connected simple groups of finite Morley rank with non-trivial Weyl group. From this, we deduce a precise structural description of Borel subgroups of this family of simple groups. Along…

We give an example of a finitely presented simple group containing a finitely generated subgroup which is not finitely presented.

We prove completeness for the main examples of infinite-dimensional Lie groups and some related topological groups.

We present a simple dyadic construction that yields a new counterexample to Zygmund's conjecture. Our result recovers Soria's classical result in dimension three, through a different construction, and gives new ones in all other dimensions…

A conjecture of Woods from 1972 is disproved.

In this note we provide some counterexamples for the conjecture of Moret\'{o} on finite simple groups, which says that any finite simple group $G$ can determined in terms of its order $|G|$ and the number of elements of order $p$, where $p$…

A proof of Thompson's conjecture for real semi-simple Lie groups has been given by Kapovich, Millson, and Leeb. In this note, we give another proof of the conjecture by using a theorem of Alekseev, Meinrenken, and Woodward from symplectic…

We compare different algebraic structures in twisted equivariant K-Theory for proper actions of discrete groups. After the construction of a module structure over untwisted equivariant K-Theory, we prove a completion Theorem of Atiyah-Segal…

We consider Murre's conjectures on Chow groups for a fourfold which is a product of two curves and a surface. We give a result which concerns Conjecture D:the kernel of a certain projector is equal to the homologically trivial part of the…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring. We show that pure injective resolutions and pure projective resolutions can be constructed for unbounded complexes of $R$-modules. We use these to obtain a closed symmetric monoidal structure on the unbounded…

We introduce a novel combinatorial method to study $Q^{**}$-transformations of group presentations or, equivalently, 3-deformations of CW-complexes of dimension 2. Our procedure is based on a refinement of discrete Morse theory that gives a…

The unit conjecture, commonly attributed to Kaplansky, predicts that if $K$ is a field and $G$ is a torsion-free group then the only units of the group ring $K[G]$ are the trivial units, that is, the non-zero scalar multiples of group…

We investigate complement-finite submonoids of the monoid of nonnegative integer points of a unipotent linear algebraic group $G$. These monoids are in general noncommutative but they specialize to the generalized numerical monoids of…
