Infinite presentations are given for all of the higher Torelli groups of once-punctured surfaces. In the case of the classical Torelli group, a finite presentation of the corresponding groupoid is also given, and finite presentations of the…

Finding the number of maximal subgroups of infinite index of a finitely generated group is a natural problem that has been solved for several classes of `geometric' groups (linear groups, hyperbolic groups, mapping class groups, etc). Here…

The question of whether there exists a finite group of order at least three in which every element except one is a commutator has remained unresolved in group theory. In this article, we address this open problem by developing an…

Let G be a totally disconnected, locally compact group admitting a contractive automorphism f. We prove a Jordan-Holder theorem for series of f-stable closed subgroups of G, classify all possible composition factors and deduce consequences…

In this article we will describe a finitely presented subgroup of Monod's group of piecewise projective homeomorphisms of R. This in particular provides a new example of a finitely presented group which is nonamenable and yet does not…

We prove that a group homomorphism $\varphi\colon L\to G$ from a locally compact Hausdorff group $L$ into a discrete group $G$ either is continuous, or there exists a normal open subgroup $N\subseteq L$ such that $\varphi(N)$ is a torsion…

By the Telescope Conjecture for Module Categories, we mean the following claim: "Let R be any ring and (A, B) be a hereditary cotorsion pair in Mod-R with A and B closed under direct limits. Then (A, B) is of finite type." We prove a…

We construct torsion-free hyperbolic groups without unique product whose subgroups up to some given finite index are themselves non-unique product groups. This is achieved by generalising a construction of Comerford to graphical small…

Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian ring and $M$ be an $R$-module such that the set of associated prime ideals of the quotient module $M/L$ is finite for all submodules $L$ of $M$. In this paper, it is shown that there is a finitely…

The stable category of modules over the algebra of a finite group with coefficients in a field is a compactly generated tensor triangulated category, that has been studied extensively in representation theory. In this paper, we provide a…

For any finite abelian group $G$ and commutative unitary ring $R$, by $R[G]$ we denote the group algebra over $R$. Let $T=(g_1,\ldots,g_{\ell})$ be a sequence over the group $G$. We say $T$ is algebraically zero-sum free over R if…

Given a Henselian and Japanese discrete valuation ring $A$ and a flat and projective $A$-scheme $X$, we follow the approach of Biswas-dos Santos to introduce a full subcategory of coherent modules on $X$ which is then shown to be Tannakian.…

We construct uncountably many finitely generated, pairwise non-isomorphic torsion-free groups, all of which fall into the same quasi-isometry class. This is done by considering Schur covering groups and group cohomology, with the necessary…

Recently, Cochran and Harvey defined torsion-free derived series of groups and proved an injectivity theorem on the associated torsion-free quotients. We show that there is a universal construction which extends such an injectivity theorem…

In this paper we investigate hereditarily normal topological groups and their subspaces. We prove that every compact subspace of a hereditarily normal topological group is metrizable. To prove this statement we first show that a…

We study Farrell Nil-groups associated to a finite order automorphism of a ring $R$. We show that any such Farrell Nil-group is either trivial, or infinitely generated (as an abelian group). Building on this first result, we then show that…

For any commutative ring $A$ we introduce a generalization of $S$--artinian rings using a hereditary torsion theory $\sigma$ instead of a multiplicative closed subset $S\subseteq{A}$. It is proved that if $A$ is a totally $\sigma$--artinian…

Let k be a base field of positive characteristic. Making use of topological periodic cyclic homology, we start by proving that the category of noncommutative numerical motives over k is abelian semi-simple, as conjectured by Kontsevich.…

The purpose of this article is to prove that the category of cocommutative Hopf $K$-algebras, over a field $K$ of characteristic zero, is a semi-abelian category. Moreover, we show that this category is action representable, and that it…

A proof of freeness of the commutator subgroup of the fundamental group of a smooth irreducible affine curve over a countable algebraically closed field of nonzero characteristic. A description of the abelianizations of the fundamental…
