We classify all closed, aspherical Riemannian manifolds M whose universal cover has indiscrete isometry group. One sample application is the theorem that any such M with word-hyperbolic fundamental group must be isometric to a negatively…

We prove that the NTP$_1$ property of a geometric theory $T$ is inherited by theories of lovely pairs and $H$-structures associated to $T$. We also provide a class of examples of nonsimple geometric NTP$_1$ theories.

We describe homomorphisms $\varphi:H\rightarrow G$ for which the codomain is acylindrically hyperbolic and the domain is a topological group which is either completely metrizable or locally countably compact Hausdorff. It is shown that, in…

We study the positive theory of groups acting on trees and show that under the presence of weak small cancellation elements, the positive theory of the group is trivial, i.e. coincides with the positive theory of a non-abelian free group.…

We apply recent results on the rank of elements of rings to study the structure of generalized corner rings $aRa$, where $R$ is a unital ring and $a$ an element of $R$. We give a complete description of the structure of $aRa$ when $a^2$ has…

Let $(U, R)$ be an approximation space with $U$ being non-empty set and $R$ being an equivalence relation on $U$, and let $\overline{G}$ and $\underline{G}$ be the upper approximation and the lower approximation of subset $G$ of $U$. A…

We offer a counterexample to a theorem in the literature and then repair the theorem as follows: The fundamental group of a locally path connected metric space inherits the discrete topology in a natural way if and only if the underlying…

We confirm the Jamneshan-Tao conjecture for finite abelian groups of rank at most a fixed integer $R$ (i.e. finite abelian groups generated by at most $R$ elements), by proving an inverse theorem for 1-bounded functions of non-trivial…

We prove a homological stability theorem for the subgroup of the mapping class group acting as the identity on some fixed portion of the first homology group of the surface. We also prove a similar theorem for the subgroup of the mapping…

Topos properties of the category of covering groupoids over a fixed groupoid are discussed. A classification result for connected covering groupoids over a fixed groupoid analogous to the fundamental theorem of Galois theory is given.

We prove a first inverse theorem for Gowers norms on all finite abelian groups that uses only nilmanifolds (rather than possibly more general nilspaces). This makes progress toward confirming the Jamneshan--Tao conjecture. The correlating…

The embedding theorem of Roelcke and Dierolf for the completions of four standard uniform structures on topological groups and their quotients holds more generally for spaces of uniform measures. The natural mappings between the four spaces…

We establish two versions of a central theorem, the Family Colimit Theorem, for the coarse coherence property of metric spaces. This is a coarse geometric property and so is well-defined for finitely generated groups with word metrics. It…

Popov classified crystallographic complex reflection groups by determining lattices they stabilize. These analogs of affine Weyl groups have infinite order and are generated by reflections about affine hyperplanes; most arise as the…

Following Eilenberg-Steenrod axiomatic approach we construct the universal ordinary homology theory for any homological structure on a given category by representing ordinary theories with values in abelian categories. For a convenient…

Using the notion of existentially closed structures, we obtain embedding theorems for groups and Lie algebras. We also prove the existence of some groups and Lie algebras with prescribed properties.

There is a well understood way of generating random coverings of a fixed manifold by sampling homomorphisms from the fundamental group of this manifold into the symmetric group. We prove a central limit theorem for the number of connected…

We give an elementary theory of Henselian local rings and construct the Henselization of a local ring. All our theorems have an algorithmic content.

The first main result is a topological rigidity theorem for complete immersed hypersurfaces of spherical space forms which extends similar results due to do Carmo/Warner, Wang/Xia and Longa/Ripoll. Under certain sharp conditions on the…

Character groups of Hopf algebras appear in a variety of mathematical contexts such as non-commutative geometry, renormalisation of quantum field theory, numerical analysis and the theory of regularity structures for stochastic partial…
