This thesis takes Brady's construction of $K(\pi,1)$s for the braid groups as a starting point. It is widely known that this construction can - with the right ingredients - be generalized to Artin groups of finite type. Results of Bessis as…

In this note, we study the equivalence of Morse and stable subgroups in the framework of the coset intersection complex. Under certain conditions on a coset intersection complex of a group, we prove that infinite-index Morse subgroups are…

A classification is given for factorizations of almost simple groups with at least one factor solvable, and it is then applied to characterize $s$-arc-transitive Cayley graphs of solvable groups, leading to a striking corollary: Except the…

The combinatorial properties of partitions with various restrictions on their hooksets are explored. A connection with numerical semigroups extends current results on simultaneous s/t-cores. Conditions that suffice for a partition to…

In a dynamical system $(X,f)$, with $X$ a compact metric space, the chain components, the fundamental building blocks in the Conley decomposition of dynamics, have a natural partial order induced by the chain relation between points.…

Finite smooth digraphs, that is, finite directed graphs without sources and sinks, can be partially ordered via pp-constructability. We give a complete description of this poset and, in particular, we prove that it is a distributive…

This is the geometric part of two papers on the cohomology of Kaehler groups. Using non-Abelian Hodge theory we show that if a finitely presented group with an unbounded complex linear morphism is the fundamental group of a compact Kaehler…

Here it is shown that standard set theory can be interpreted in a theory about order. The ordering here is about non-extensional flat classes, i.e. classes that are not elements of classes. So, stipulating a nearly well order over all those…

A characterization is given of the subsets of a group that extend to the positive cone of a right order on the group and used to relate validity of equations in lattice-ordered groups (l-groups) to subsets of free groups that extend to…

We show that double cosets of the infinite symmetric group with respect to some special subgroups admit natural structures of semigroups. We interpret elements of such semigroups in combinatorial terms (chips, colored graphs,…

The main purpose of this article is to pose three problems which are easy to be formulated in an elementary way. These problems which are specifically important also for the new class of partially ordered sets seem to be not yet solved.

The purpose of this paper is to explore the concept of localization, which comes from homotopy theory, in the context of finite simple groups. We give an easy criterion for a finite simple group to be a localization of some simple subgroup…

Flat surfaces that correspond to meromorphic $1$-forms or to meromorphic quadratic differentials containing poles of order two and higher are surfaces of infinite area. We classify groups that appear as Veech groups of translation surfaces…

A group is properly 3-realizable if it is the fundamental group of a compact polyhedron whose universal covering is proper homotopically equivalent to some 3-manifold. We prove that when such a group is also quasi-simply filtered then it…

We establish an upper bound on the cardinality of a minimal generating set for the fundamental group of a large family of connected, balanced simplicial complexes and, more generally, simplicial posets.

Let $G$ be a finite group, $N$ a normal subgroup of $G$ and $x\in G-N$. We discuss when the coset $Nx$ is contained in the union of two conjugacy classes, $K$ and $D$, of $G$. We show that $N$ need not be solvable, and can even be…

We consider a $q$-analogue of abstract simplicial complexes, called $q$-complexes, and discuss the notion of shellability for such complexes. It is shown that $q$-complexes formed by independent subspaces of a $q$-matroid are shellable.…

In this article we investigate the shellability of the flag simplicial complexes attached to non-simple and thin polyominoes. As a consequence, we obtain the Cohen-Macaulayness and a combinatorial interepetation of the $h$-polynomial of the…

We prove that the isomorphism type of the subrack lattice of a finite group determines the nilpotence class. We analyze the problem of estimating the orders of the group elements corresponding to the atoms of the subrack lattice. As a…

A mixed lattice is a lattice-type structure consisting of a set with two partial orderings, and generalizing the notion of a lattice. Mixed lattice theory has previously been studied in various algebraic structures, such as groups and…
