In this work, we show that verifying the order of a finite group given as a black-box is in the complexity class QCMA. This solves an open problem asked by Watrous in 2000 in his seminal paper on quantum proofs and directly implies that the…
We call a finite group G ultrasolvable if it has a characteristic subgroup series whose factors are cyclic. It was shown by Durbin--McDonald that the automorphism group of an ultrasolvable group is supersolvable. The converse statement was…
This dissertation comprises three collections of results, all united by a common theme. The theme is the study of categories via algebraic techniques, considering categories themselves as algebraic objects. This algebraic approach to…
We prove that for any finitely generated group $G$ and any $k\geq1$, the space of $k$-colorings of $G$ does not admit a strict self-embedding. This settles the Gottschalk surjunctivity conjecture and, consequently, Kaplansky's direct…
It is known that any locally graded group with finitely many derived subgroups of non-normal subgroups is finite-by-abelian. This result is generalized here, by proving that in a locally graded group $G$ the subgroup $\gamma_{k}(G)$ is…
We show that the group cohomology of torsion-free virtually polycyclic groups and the continuous cohomology of simply connected solvable Lie groups can be computed by the rational cohomology of algebraic groups. Our results are…
We present explicit upper bounds for the number and size of conjugacy classes in finite Chevalley groups and their variations. These results have been used by many authors to study zeta functions associated to representations of finite…
We discuss the finiteness of the topological entropy of continuous endomorphims for some classes of locally compact groups. Firstly, we focus on the abelian case, imposing the condition of being compactly generated, and note an interesting…
We prove that there exists a finitely generated group that satisfies a group law with probability 1 but does not satisfy any group law. More precisely, we construct a finitely generated group G in which the probability that a random element…
The goal of this work is to study the existence of quasi-periodic solutions in time to nonlinear beam equations with a multiplicative potential. The nonlinearities are required to only finitely differentiable and the frequency is along a…
William W. Boone and Graham Higman proved that a finitely generated group has soluble word problem if and only if it can be embedded in a simple group that can be embedded in a finitely presented group. We prove the exact analogue for…
A finitely generated group $G$ is said to be condensed if its isomorphism class in the space of finitely generated marked groups has no isolated points. We prove that every product variety $\mathcal{UV}$, where $\mathcal{U}$ (respectively,…
In this paper, we explore a variety of finiteness questions for preperiodic points of morphisms. We begin by treating a group action analog of the Burnside problem for torsion groups using the p-adic arc method. We then prove some results…
We present some Zermelo-Fraenkel consistency results regarding bi-orderability of groups, as well as a construction of groups with Conradian orders whose every action on metric spaces has bounded orbits. A classical consequence of the…
Given a positive integer $u$ and a simple algebraic group $G$ defined over an algebraically closed field $K$ of characteristic $p$, we derive properties about the subvariety $G_{[u]}$ of $G$ consisting of elements of $G$ of order dividing…
Groups definable in simple theories retain the chain conditions and decomposition properties known from stable groups, up to commensurability. In the small case, if a generic type of G is not foreign to some type q, there is a q-internal…
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…
In this paper we give necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of solutions to quasilinear equations of Lane--Emden type with measure data on a Carnot group $\mathbb G$ of arbitrary step. The quasilinear part involves operators…
We investigate topologies on groups which arise naturally from their algebraic structure, including the Frech\'et-Markov, Hausdorff-Markov, and various kinds of Zariski topologies. Answering a question by Dikranjan and Toller, we show that…
Let $G$ be a residually finite group. We give an explicit example in the discrete Heisenberg group that the Brown measure of multiplication operators $A \in \mathbb{Z}[G] \subseteq \mathcal{B}(\ell^2(G))$ in general can not be approximated…
