A century ago, Camille Jordan proved that the complex general linear group $GL_n(C)$ has the Jordan property: there is a Jordan constant $C_n$ such that every finite subgroup $H \le GL_n(C)$ has an abelian subgroup $H_1$ of index $[H : H_1]…

Assuming a particular case of Borisov--Alexeev--Borisov conjecture, we prove that finite subgroups of the automorphism group of a finitely generated field over Q have bounded orders. Further, we investigate which algebraic varieties have…

A group $G$ is called Jordan if there is a positive integer $J=J_G$ such that every finite subgroup $\mathcal{B}$ of $G$ contains a commutative subgroup $\mathcal{A}\subset \mathcal{B}$ such that $\mathcal{A}$ is normal in $\mathcal{B}$ and…

Let $X$ be a compact complex space in Fujiki's Class $C$. We show that the group $Aut(X)$ of all biholomorphic automorphisms of $X$ has the Jordan property: there is a (Jordan) constant $J = J(X)$ such that any finite subgroup $G\le Aut(X)$…

We study properties of continuous finite group actions on topological manifolds that hold true, for any finite group action, after possibly passing to a subgroup of index bounded above by a constant depending only on the manifold. These…

Let $W$ be a quasiprojective variety over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. Assume that $W$ is birational to a product of a smooth projective variety $A$ and the projective line. We prove that if $A$ contains no rational…

We show that the Cremona group of rank $2$ over a finite field is Jordan, and provide an upper bound for its Jordan constant which is sharp when the number of elements in the field is different from $2$, $4$, and $8$.

We give explicit bounds for Jordan constants of groups of birational automorphisms of rationally connected threefolds over fields of zero characteristic, in particular, for Cremona groups of ranks 2 and 3.

We prove that the family of all connected n-dimensional real Lie groups is uniformly Jordan for every n. This implies that all algebraic groups (not necessarily affine) over fields of characteristic zero and some transformation groups of…

We show that the Jordan constant for the volume-preserving plane Cremona group $\mathrm{Bir}(\mathbb P^2, \Delta)$ is $12$. We provide a Jordan bound of $144$ for the three-dimensional volume-preserving Cremona group $\mathrm{Bir}(\mathbb…

We use a recent advance in birational geometry to prove new lower bounds on the essential dimension of some finite groups.

We bound the indices of normal abelian subgroups in finite groups contained in the Cremona group of rank 2 over a field of odd characteristic.

We study finite $p$-subgroups of birational automorphism groups. By virtue of boundedness theorem of Fano varieties, we prove that there exists a constant $R(n)$ such that a rationally connected variety of dimension $n$ over an…

We call a group $G$ nilpotently Jordan of class at most $c$ $(c\in\mathbb{N})$ if there exists a constant $J\in\mathbb{Z}^+$ such that every finite subgroup $H\leqq G$ contains a nilpotent subgroup $K\leqq H$ of class at most $c$ and index…

We call a group $G$ nilpotently Jordan of class at most $c$ $(c\in\mathbb{N})$ if there exists a constant $J\in\mathbb{Z}^+$ such that every finite subgroup $H\leqq G$ contains a nilpotent subgroup $K\leqq H$ of class at most $c$ and index…

By a classical result of Jordan, each finite subgroup G of a complex linear group GL_n(C) has an abelian subgroup whose index in G is bounded by a constant depending only on n. We consider the problem if this remains true for finite…

We prove that for any closed smooth $4$-manifold $X$ there exists a constant $C$ with the property that each finite subgroup $G<Diff(X)$ has a subgroup $N$ which is abelian or nilpotent of class $2$, and which satisfies $[G:N]\leq C$. We…

We first note that a result of Gowers on product-free sets in groups has an unexpected consequence: If k is the minimal degree of a representation of the finite group G, then for every subset B of G with $|B| > |G| / k^{1/3}$ we have B^3 =…

We compute the Jordan constant for the group of birational automorphisms of a projective plane $\mathbb{P}^2_{\mathbb k}$, where ${\mathbb k}$ is either an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0, or the field of real numbers, or the…

We classify Jordan $G$-tori, where $G$ is any torsion-free abelian group. Using the Zelmanov prime structure theorem, such a class divides into three types, namely, {the Hermitian type, the Clifford type and the Albert type.} We concretely…
