In 2008, the author proposed a version of duality theory for (not necessarily, Abelian) complex Lie groups, based on the idea of using the Arens-Michael envelope of topological algebra and having an advantage over existing theories in that…

Counterexamples to the Modular Isomorphism Problem were discovered recently. These are non-isomorphic finite $2$-groups $G$ and $H$ that have isomorphic group algebras over the field $\mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z}$ and non-isomorphic group…

We show that if 2^{aleph_0} Cohen reals are added to the universe, then for every reduced non-free torsion-free abelian group A of cardinality less than the continuum, there is a prime p so that Ext_p(A, Z) not= 0. In particular if it is…

General theory determines the notion of separable MV-algebra (equivalently, of separable unital lattice-ordered Abelian group). We establish the following structure theorem: An MV-algebra is separable if, and only if, it is a finite product…

We investigate the possible structures imposed on a finite group by its possession of an automorphism sending a large fraction of the group elements to their cubes, the philosophy being that this should force the group to be, in some sense,…

We study to what extent group $C^\ast$-algebras are characterized by their unitary groups. A complete characterization of which Abelian group $C^\ast$-algebras have isomorphic unitary groups is obtained. We compare these results with other…

We prove that if mu^+< lambda =cf(lambda)< mu^{aleph_0}, then there is no universal reduced torsion free abelian group. Similarly if aleph_0< lambda < 2^{aleph_0}. We also prove that if 2^{aleph_0}< mu^+< lambda =cf(lambda)< mu^{aleph_0},…

Over any partially ordered abelian group whose positive cone is closed in an appropriate sense and has finitely many faces, modules that satisfy a weak finiteness condition admit finite primary decompositions. This conclusion rests on the…

For any abelian group $G$, we classify up to isomorphism all $G$-gradings on the classical central simple Lie algebras, except those of type $D_4$, over the field of real numbers (or any real closed field).

We construct an analogue of Neumann's affiliated algebras for sofic group algebras over arbitrary fields. Consequently, we settle Kaplansky's direct finiteness conjecture for sofic groups.

We study the Modular Isomorphism Problem applying a combination of existing and new techniques. We make use of the small group algebra to give a positive answer for two classes of groups of nilpotency class 3. We also introduce a new…

We prove in ZFC, no psi in L_{omega_1,omega}[Q] have unique model of uncountable cardinality, this confirms theBaldwin conjecture. But we analyze this in more general terms. We introduce and investigate a.e.c. and also versions of limit…

We examine the existence of universal elements in classes of infinite abelian groups. The main method is using group invariants which are defined relative to club guessing sequences. We prove, for example: Theorem: For $n\ge 2$, there is a…

We investigate an extension of ZFC set theory (in an extended language) that stipulates the existence of a proper class of indiscernibles over the universe. One of the main results of the paper shows that the purely set-theoretical…

We prove that if there are $\mathfrak c$ incomparable selective ultrafilters then, for every infinite cardinal $\kappa$ such that $\kappa^\omega=\kappa$, there exists a group topology on the free Abelian group of cardinality $\kappa$…

We give a new proof that there are arbitrarily large indecomposable abelian groups; moreover, the groups constructed are absolutely indecomposable, that is, they remain indecomposable in any generic extension. However, any absolutely rigid…

Generalizing the theorem of Green--Lazarsfeld and Gromov, we classify Kaehler groups of deficiency at least two. As a consequence we see that there are no Kaehler groups of even and strictly positive deficiency. With the same arguments we…

An abelian group $A$ is said to be cancellable if whenever $A \oplus G$ is isomorphic to $A \oplus H$, $G$ is isomorphic to $H$. We show that the index set of cancellable rank 1 torsion-free abelian groups is $\Pi^0_4$ $m$-complete, showing…

David Aspero asks on the possibility of having Forcing axiom FA_{aleph_2}(K), where K is the class of forcing notions preserving stationarity of subsets of aleph_1 and of aleph_2. We answer negatively, in fact we show the negative result…

We consider a class K of structures e.g. trees with omega +1 levels, metric spaces and mainly, classes of Abelian groups like the one mentioned in the title and the class of reduced separable (Abelian) p-groups. We say M in K is universal…
