Automorphic loops are loops in which all inner mappings are automorphisms. A large class of automorphic loops is obtained as follows: Let $m$ be a positive even integer, $G$ an abelian group, and $\alpha$ an automorphism of $G$ that…

For a mixing shift of finite type, the associated automorphism group has a rich algebraic structure, and yet we have few criteria to distinguish when two such groups are isomorphic. We introduce a stabilization of the automorphism group,…

Let $\A$ and $\B$ be operator algebras with $c_0$-isomorphic diagonals and let $\K$ denote the compact operators. We show that if $\A\otimes\K$ and $\B\otimes\K$ are isometrically isomorphic, then $\A$ and $\B$ are isometrically isomorphic.…

We show that for non-conjugate subgroups $G_1$ and $G_2$ of a finite group $G$ there exists an extension of $G$ (by a finite group) in which the pre-images of $G_1$ and $G_2$ are not isomorphic. This allows us to show that $\mathbb Z$-coset…

If a (possibly finite) compact Lie group acts effectively, locally linearly, and homologically trivially on a closed, simply-connected four-manifold with second Betti number at least three, then it must be isomorphic to a subgroup of S^1 x…

Let $G$ be a metric group and let $\sA ut(G)$ denote the automorphism group of $G$. If $\sA$ and $\sB$ are groups of $G$-valued maps defined on the sets $X$ and $Y$, respectively, we say that $\sA$ and $\sB$ are \emph{equivalent} if there…

Starting with a unit-preserving normal completely positive map L: M --> M acting on a von Neumann algebra - or more generally a dual operator system - we show that there is a unique reversible system \alpha: N --> N (i.e., a complete order…

We show that any connected locally compact group which admits an expansive automorphism is nilpotent. We also show that for any locally compact group $G$, $\alpha\in {\rm Aut}(G)$ is expansive if and only if for any $\alpha$-invariant…

We compare real and complex dynamics for automorphisms of rational surfaces that are obtained by lifting \chg{some} quadratic birational maps of the plane. In particular, we show how to exploit the existence of an invariant cubic curve to…

We give a geometric characterization of finite rational groups. In particular, we prove that a finite group is rational if and only if there exists a finite geometry $\Gamma$ of type $I$ and action of $G$ on $\Gamma$ as a group of…

We obtain an explicit description of the endomorphisms of free-abelian by free groups together with a characterization of when they are injective and surjective. As a consequence we see that free-abelian by free groups are Hopfian and not…

We obtain a global rigidity result for abelian partially hyperbolic higher rank actions on certain $2-$step nilmanifolds $X_{\Gamma}$. We show that, under certain natural assumptions, all such actions are $C^{\infty}-$conjugated to an…

We describe inertial endomorphisms of an abelian group $A$, that is endomorphisms $\varphi$ with the property $|(\varphi(X)+X)/X|<\infty$ for each $X\le A$. They form a ring containing multiplications, the so-called finitary endomorphisms…

We classify all finite-dimensional connected Hopf algebras with large abelian primitive spaces. We show that they are Hopf algebra extensions of restricted enveloping algebras of certain restricted Lie algebras. For any abelian matched pair…

Let $X$ be a magma, that is a set equipped with a binary operation, and consider a function $\alpha : X \to X$. We that $X$ is Hom-associative if for all $x,y,z \in X$, the equality $\alpha(x)(yz) = (xy) \alpha(z)$ holds. For every…

If an open subgroup of the group of the invertible measures on a LCA group is isometric to another, then the correspoinding underlying LCA groups are topologically isomorphic to each other.

This work generalizes the results of an earlier paper by the second author, from Randers metrics to $(\alpha,\beta)$-metrics. Let $F$ be an $(\alpha,\beta)$-metric which is defined by a left invariant vector field and a left invariant…

Let $\Gamma\curvearrowright (X,\mu)$ be a measure preserving action of a countable group $\Gamma$ on a standard probability space $(X,\mu)$. We prove that if the action $\Gamma\curvearrowright X$ is not profinite and satisfies a certain…

An additive action on an irreducible algebraic variety $X$ is an effective action $\mathbb{G}_a^n\times X\to X$ with an open orbit of the vector group $\mathbb{G}_a^n$. Any two additive actions on $X$ are conjugate by a birational…

Let $X$ be a normal projective variety of dimension $n$ and $G$ an abelian group of automorphisms such that all elements of $G\setminus \{\mathrm{id}\}$ are of positive entropy. Dinh and Sibony showed that $G$ is actually free abelian of…
