A $G$-kernel is a group homomorphism from a group $G$ to the outer automorphism group of a C$^*$-algebra. Inspired by recent work of Evington and Gir\'{o}n Pacheco in the stably finite case, we introduce a new invariant of a $G$-kernel…

Let $L/F$ be a finite Galois extension of number fields with an arbitrary Galois group $G$. We give an explicit description of the kernel of the natural map on motivic tame kernels $H^2_{\mathcal{M}}(o_L, {\bf Z}(i))_{G} {\rightarrow}…

The goal of this article is to study results and examples concerning finitely presented covers of finitely generated amenable groups. We collect examples of groups $G$ with the following properties: (i) $G$ is finitely generated, (ii) $G$…

We prove that if $G$ is an abelian group and $H_1x_1,\dots,H_{k}x_k$ is an irredundant (minimal) cover of $G$ with cosets, then $$|G:\bigcap_{i=1}^{k}H_{i}|=2^{O(k)}.$$ This bound is the best possible up to the constant hidden in the…

A covering of a group is a finite set of proper subgroups whose union is the whole group. A covering is minimal if there is no covering of smaller cardinality, and it is nilpotent if all its members are nilpotent subgroups. We complete a…

In this paper we complete the characterization of Ext(G,Z) under Godel's axiom of constructibility for any torsion-free abelian group G . In particular, we prove in (V=L) that, for a singular cardinal nu of uncountable cofinality which is…

For a finite smooth algebraic group $F$ over a field $k$ and a smooth algebraic group $\bar G$ over the separable closure of $k$, we define the notion of $F$-kernel in $\bar G$ and we associate to it a set of nonabelian 2-cohomology. We use…

In this article we describe the $G\times G$-equivariant $K$-ring of $X$, where $X$ is a regular compactification of a connected complex reductive algebraic group $G$. Furthermore, in the case when $G$ is a semisimple group of adjoint type,…

We call a flag variety admissible if its automorphism group is the projective general linear group. (This holds in most cases.) Let $K$ be a field of characteristic $0$, containing all roots of unity. Let the $K$-variety $X$ be a form of an…

Let T be an abelian group and lambda an uncountable regular cardinal. We consider the question of whether there is a lambda-universal group G^* among all torsion-free abelian groups G of cardinality less than or equal to lambda satisfying…

For certain uncountable cardinals $\kappa$ we produce a group of cardinality $\kappa$ which is freely indecomposable, strongly $\kappa$-free, and whose abelianization is free abelian of rank $\kappa$. The construction takes place in…

An abelian cover is a finite morphism $X\to Y$ of varieties which is the quotient map for a generically faithful action of a finite abelian group $G$. Abelian covers with $Y$ smooth and $X$ normal were studied in…

Let $X$ be a connected, noetherian scheme and $\mathcal{A}$ be a sheaf of Azumaya algebras on $X$ which is a locally free $\mathcal{O}_{X}$-module of rank $a$. We show that the kernel and cokernel of $K_{i}(X) \to K_{i}(\mathcal{A}) $ are…

It is well-known that a homomorphism p between topological groups K, G is a covering homomorphism if and only if p is an open epimorphism with discrete kernel. In this paper we generalize this fact, in precisely, we show that for a…

In this paper, we study lower bounds on the K-theory of the maximal $C^*$-algebra of a discrete group based on the amount of torsion it contains. We call this the finite part of the operator K-theory and give a lower bound that is valid for…

We adapt Bost's algebraicity characterization to the situation of a germ in a compact K\"ahler manifold. As a consequence, we extend the algebraic integrability criteria of Campana-P\u{a}un and of Druel to foliations on compact K\"ahler…

Here, we show that the first isomorphism theorem, the orbit-stabilizer theorem, and the non-uniqueness of solutions of underdetermined linear systems are all manifestations of the same underlying algebraic property. We will call this…

Universal kernels, whose Reproducing Kernel Hilbert Space is dense in the space of continuous functions are of great practical and theoretical interest. In this paper, we introduce an explicit construction of universal kernels on compact…

A kernel of a directed graph is a subset of vertices that is both independent and absorbing (every vertex not in the kernel has an out-neighbour in the kernel). Not all directed graphs contain kernels, and computing a kernel or deciding…

In this paper we generalize cellular algebras by allowing different partial orderings relative to fixed idempotents. For these relative cellular algebras we classify and construct simple modules, and we obtain other characterizations in…
