We consider the following two finiteness conditions on normalizers and centralizers in a group G: (i) |N_G(H):H| is finite for every non-normal subgroup H of G, and (ii) |C_G(x):<x>| is finite for every non-normal cyclic subgroup <x> of G.…

We algorithmically compute integral Eilenberg-MacLane homology of all semigroups of order at most $8$ and present some particular semigroups with notable classifying spaces, refuting conjectures of Nico. Along the way, we give an…

Let $A$ and $B$ be abelian varieties defined over the function field $k(S)$ of a smooth algebraic variety $S/k.$ We establish criteria, in terms of restriction maps to subvarieties of $S,$ for existence of various important classes of…

We present the following reflexivity-like result concerning the automorphism group of the $C^*$-algebra B(H), H being a separable Hilbert space. Let $\phi:B(H)\to B(H)$ be a multiplicative map (no linearity or continuity is assumed) which…

We introduce several classes of localizations (idempotent monads) on the category of groups and study their properties and relations. The most interesting class for us is the class of localizations which coincide with their zero derived…

We study the realization problem of finite groups as the group of homotopy classes of self-homotopy equivalences of finite spaces. Let $G$ be a finite group. Using an infinite family of pairwise non weakly homotopic asymmetric spaces we…

In a previous article, we introduced notions of finiteness obstruction, Euler characteristic, and L^2-Euler characteristic for wide classes of categories. In this sequel, we prove the compatibility of those notions with homotopy colimits of…

Let $R$ be a finite unital commutative ring. We introduce a new class of finite groups, which we call hereditary groups over $R$. Our main result states that if $G$ is a hereditary group over $R$ then a unital algebra isomorphism between…

Let $G$ be a connected reductive group over a number field $F$, and let $S$ be a set (finite or infinite) of places of $F$. We give a necessary and sufficient condition for the surjectivity of the localization map from $H^1(F,G)$ to the…

Let $X$ be a compact metric space and let $|A|$ denote the cardinality of a set $A$. We prove that if $f\colon X\to X$ is a homeomorphism and $|X|=\infty$ then for all $\delta>0$ there is $A\subset X$ such that $|A|=4$ and for all $k\in Z$…

We obtain some general restrictions on the continuous endomorphisms of a profinite group G under the assumption that G has only finitely many open subgroups of each index (an assumption which automatically holds, for instance, if G is…

Let $G$ be a finite group. Denote by $\textrm{Irr}(G)$ the set of all irreducible complex characters of $G.$ Let $\textrm{cd}(G)=\{\chi(1)\;|\;\chi\in \textrm{Irr}(G)\}$ be the set of all irreducible complex character degrees of $G$…

For a finite group $G$, we define the inclusion graph of subgroups of $G$, denoted by $\mathcal I(G)$, is a graph having all the proper subgroups of $G$ as its vertices and two distinct vertices $H$ and $K$ in $\mathcal I(G)$ are adjacent…

We explore the existence of homomorphisms between outer automorphism groups of free groups Out(F_n) \to Out(F_m). We prove that if n > 8 is even and n \neq m \leq 2n, or n is odd and n \neq m \leq 2n - 2, then all such homomorphisms have…

Given a Lie group $G$ with finitely many components and a compact Lie group A which acts on $G$ by automorphisms, we prove that there always exists an A-invariant maximal compact subgroup K of G, and that for every such K, the natural map…

Let G be a group and let k be a cardinal. A subset A of G is called left (right) k-large if there exists a subset F of G such that |F| < { and G = FA (G = AF). We say that A is k-large if A is left and right k-large. It is known that every…

We explore the topological full group [[G]] of an essentially principal etale groupoid G on a Cantor set. When G is minimal, we show that [[G]] (and its certain normal subgroup) is a complete invariant for the isomorphism class of the etale…

The concept of an omnigenous locally finite group was introduced in [2] as a generalization of Hall's universal countable locally finite group. In this paper we show that the class of all countable omnigenous locally finite groups is Borel…

Let H be a complex infinite dimensional Hilbert space. We describe the form of all *-semigroup endomorphisms $\phi$ of B(H) which are uniformly continuous on every commutative C*-subalgebra. In particular, we obtain that if $\phi$ satisfies…

A group G is (finitely) co-Hopfian if it does not contain any proper (finite-index) subgroups isomorphic to itself. We study finitely generated groups G that admit a descending chain of proper normal finite-index subgroups, each of which is…
