In this paper we prove that every finite group $G$ can be realized as the group of self-homotopy equivalences of infinitely many elliptic spaces $X$. Moreover, $X$ can be chosen to be the rationalization of an inflexible compact simply…

We give a complete characterization of Hamiltonian actions of compact Lie groups on exact symplectic manifolds with proper momentum maps. We deduce that every Hamiltonian action of a compact Lie group on a contractible symplectic manifold…

We prove that the conformal group of a closed, simply connected, real analytic Lorentzian manifold is compact. D'Ambra proved in 1988 that the isometry group of such a manifold is compact. Our result implies the Lorentzian Lichnerowicz…

In this paper, we completely classify all compact 4-manifolds with positive isotropic curvature. We show that they are diffeomorphic to $\mathbb{S}^4,$ or $\mathbb{R}\mathbb{P}^4$ or quotients of $\mathbb{S}^3\times \mathbb{R}$ by a…

It is proved that, in certain subgroups of direct products of countable groups, the property of being an unconditionally closed set coincides with that of being an algebraic set. In particular, these properties coincide in all Abelian…

We investigate the mapping class group of an orientable $\omega$-bounded surface. Such a surface splits, by Nyikos's Bagpipe Theorem, into a union of a bag (a compact surface with boundary) and finitely many long pipes. The subgroup…

In this paper we give some conditions in which a direct product of groups is $\mathcal{V}-$capable if and only if each of its factors is $\mathcal{V}-$capable for some varieties $\mathcal{V}$. Moreover, we give some conditions in which a…

This self-contained paper is part of a series \cite{FF2,FF3} on actions by diffeomorphisms of infinite groups on compact manifolds. The two main results presented here are: 1) Any homomorphism of (almost any) mapping class group or…

We show that it is consistent with ZFC that every compact group has a non-Haar-measurable subgroup. In addition, we demonstrate a natural construction, and we conjecture that this construction always produces a non-measurable subgroup of a…

It is known that a definably compact group G is an extension of a compact Lie group L by a divisible torsion-free normal subgroup. We show that the o-minimal higher homotopy groups of G are isomorphic to the corresponding higher homotopy…

Let $X$ be a Hausdorff topological group and $G$ a locally compact subgroup of $X$. We show that $X$ admits a locally finite $\sigma$-discrete $G$-functionally open cover each member of which is $G$-homeomorphic to a twisted product…

We prove that the cup product of $\Delta$-decomposable quasimorphisms, Brooks quasimorphisms or Rolli quasimorphisms with any bounded cohomology class of arbitrary positive degree is trivial.

This article initiates a geometric study of the automorphism groups of general graph products of groups, and investigates the algebraic and geometric structure of automorphism groups of cyclic product of groups. For a cyclic product of at…

We introduce the concept of crossed product of a product system by a locally compact group. We prove that the crossed product of a row-finite and faithful product system by an amenable group is also a row-finite and faithful product system.…

We investigate one question regarding bicrossed products of finite groups which we believe has the potential of being approachable for other classes of algebraic objects (algebras, Hopf algebras). The problem is to classify the groups that…

We give a geometric method for determining the cohomology groups of a polyhedral product under suitable freeness conditions or with coefficients taken in a field. This is done by considering first the special case for which the pairs of…

We prove that compact complex manifolds bearing a holomorphic Riemannian metric have infinite fundamental group.

The group of compactly supported homeomorphisms on a Tychonoff space can be topologized in a number of ways, including as a colimit of homeomorphism groups with a given compact support, or as a subgroup of the homeomorphism group of its…

If a compact closed category has finite products or finite coproducts then it in fact has finite biproducts, and so is semi-additive.

We show that a minimal action of a finitely generated group of polynomial growth on a compact metrizable space has comparison. It follows that if such an action has the small boundary property then it is almost finite and its $C^*$-crossed…
