We prove that every finite direct product of crystallographic groups arising from an irreducible root system (in the sense of Lie theory) is profinitely rigid (equiv. first-order rigid). This is a generalization of recent proofs of…

We introduce and study conjugate reversibility (or $c$-reversibility) in the complex special linear group $\SL(n,\C)$ where an element is conjugate to the inverse of its complex conjugate. We prove that in $\SL(n, \C)$, every $c$-reversible…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $N(G)$ be the set of conjugacy class sizes of $G$. For a prime $p$, let $|G||_p$ be the highest $p$-power dividing some element of $N(G)$. and define $|G|| = {\Pi}_{p\in {\pi}(G)}|G||_p$. $G$ is said to be an…

In this short note we answer some questions of Bergman regarding homomorphic images of (ultra)products of groups.

We describe the classification of ranked definably quasi-Frobenius groups of odd type : dihedral configurations are isomorphic to PGL(2, K) for K an algebraically closed field of characteristic other than two; Frobenius groups are spilt and…

We show that a RFRS Poincar\'e-duality group $G$ admits a virtual epimorphism to the integers whose kernel is itself a Poincar\'e-duality group over every field if and only if the $L^2$-homology of $G$ vanishes and so do the…

Hermitian cubic norm structures were recently introduced in order to study the class of skew-dimension one structurable algebras (which are typically only defined over fields of characteristic different from $2$ and $3$) over arbitrary…

A Rota-Baxter operator on a Lie group $ G $ is a smooth map $ B : G \to G $ such that $ B(g)B(h) = B(gB(g)hB(g)^{-1}) $ for all $ g, h \in G $. This concept was introduced in 2021 by Guo, Lang and Sheng as a Lie group analogue of…

We show that for any countable group $ G $ equipped with a probability measure $ \mu $, there exists a randomized stopping time $ \tau $ such that $ (G, \mu _{\tau} )$ admits a strictly larger space of bounded harmonic functions than $…

We establish a general completeness criterion for Dirichlet-Selberg domains in the symmetric space $SL(n,\mathbb{R})/SO(n)$. By introducing and analyzing Busemann-Selberg functions - which extend classical Busemann functions and capture…

We describe the structure of ($0$-)simple inverse Hausdorff semitopological $\omega$-semigroups with compact maximal subgroups. In particular, we show that if $S$ is a simple inverse Hausdorff semitopological $\omega$-semigroup with compact…

In this paper we analyze computational properties of the Diophantine problem (and its search variant) for spherical equations $\prod_{i=1}^m z_i^{-1} c_i z_i = 1$ (and its variants) over the class of finite metabelian groups…

It is a theorem due to F. Haglund and D. Wise that reflection groups (aka Coxeter groups) virtually embed into right-angled reflection groups (aka right-angled Coxeter groups). In this article, we generalise this observation to rotation…

We construct two finite groups of size $2^{365}\cdot 3^{105}\cdot 7^{104}$: a solvable group $G$ and a non-solvable group $H$, such that for every integer $n$ the groups have the same number of elements of order $n$. This answers a question…

We study a family of Thompson-like groups built as rearrangement groups of fractals from [BF19], each acting on a Wa\.zewski dendrite. Each of these is a finitely generated group that is dense in the full group of homeomorphisms of the…

The isomorphism problem for infinite finitely presented groups is probably the hardest among standard algorithmic problems in group theory. Classes of groups where it has been completely solved are nilpotent groups, hyperbolic groups, and…

We give a simple algorithm to solve the subgroup membership problem for virtually free groups. For a fixed virtually free group with a fixed generating set $X$, the subgroup membership problem is uniformly solvable in time $O(n\log^*(n))$…

We consider a class of groups, called groups of F-type, which includes some known and important classes like Fuchsian groups of geometric rank $\ge 3$, surface groups of genus $\ge 2$, cyclically pinched one-relator groups and torus-knot…

This paper continues the investigation of non-zero determinants associated with finite semigroups containing a pair of non-commuting idempotents, as initiated in~\cite{Sha-Det2}. We focus on a class of semigroups, called \( \lll \)-smooth…

We systematically study the minimal conditions on $\mathcal{L}$-, $\mathcal{R}$- and $\mathcal{J}$-classes, denoted by $M_L$, $M_R$ and $M_J$, as well as the related notions of left/right/two-sided stability, in semigroups and biacts. In…
