We present a characterization of cotorsion-free abelian groups in terms of homomorphisms from fundamental groups of Peano continua, which aligns naturally with the generalization of slenderness to non-abelian groups. In the process, we…

We construct a smooth Lie group structure on the group of real analytic diffeomorphisms of a compact analytic manifold with corners. This generalises the known analogous results in the situation where the real analytic manifold has no…

Necessary or sufficient conditions are presented for the existence of various types of actions of Lie groups and Lie algebras on manifolds.

Lie Yamaguti algebras appear naturally on the smooth sections of the tangent bundle of a reductive homogeneous space when we interpret the torsion and curvature as algebraic operators. In this article we present a description of the free…

We show that several torsion free 3-manifold groups are not left-orderable. Our examples are groups of cyclic branched covers of S^3 branched along links. The figure eight knot provides simple nontrivial examples. The groups arising in…

Space-times admitting a 3-dimensional Lie group of conformal motions $C_3$ acting on null orbits are studied. Coordinate expressions for the metric and the conformal Killing vectors (CKV) are provided (irrespectively of the matter content)…

We consider the class of groups whose word problem is poly-context-free; that is, an intersection of finitely many context-free languages. We show that any group which is virtually a finitely generated subgroup of a direct product of free…

We study equations over torsion-free groups in terms of their `t-shape' (the occurences of the variable t in the equation). A t-shape is good if any equation with that shape has a solution. It is an outstanding conjecture that all t-shapes…

We give an expository account of our proof that each cusp-free hyperbolic 3-manifold M with finitely generated fundamental group and incompressible ends is an algebraic limit of geometrically finite hyperbolic 3-manifolds.

We construct an uncountable sequence of groups acting uniformly properly on hyperbolic spaces. We show that only countably many of these groups can be virtually torsion-free. This gives new examples of groups acting uniformly properly on…

Following arguments that the (hidden) M-algebra serves as the maximal super-exceptional tangent space for 11D supergravity, we make explicit here its integration to a (super-Lie) group. This is equipped with a left-invariant extension of…

We prove the Baum--Connes conjecture with arbitrary coefficients for some classes of groups: (1) Linear algebraic groups over a non-archimedean local field. (2) Linear algebraic groups over the adeles of a global field k, provided that at…

Let $G=*_\lambda G_\lambda$ be a free product of torsion-free groups, and let $g\in[G,G]$ be any element not conjugate into a $G_\lambda$. Then scl$_G(g)\ge1/2$. This generalizes, and gives a new proof of a theorem of Duncan-Howie.

We prove an analogue of the Baum-Connes conjecture for free orthogonal quantum groups. More precisely, we show that these quantum groups have a $ \gamma $-element and that $ \gamma = 1 $. It follows that free orthogonal quantum groups are $…

We investigate the $K$-theory of unital UCT Kirchberg algebras $\mathcal{Q}_S$ arising from families $S$ of relatively prime numbers. It is shown that $K_*(\mathcal{Q}_S)$ is the direct sum of a free abelian group and a torsion group, each…

The Heisenberg Lie group $H_3$ is modeled on the differentiable structure of $\mathbb{R}^3$ but equipped with another non-commutative product operation. By fixing the usual metric on the Heisenberg Lie group, this work provides a…

The Cannon Conjecture for a torsionfree hyperbolic group G with boundary homeomorphic to S^2 says that G is the fundamental group of an aspherical closed 3-manifold M. It is known that then M is a hyperbolic 3-manifold. We prove the stable…

Building on previous work of the author, for each finite triangle-free graph $\mathbf{G}$, we determine the equivalence relation on the copies of $\mathbf{G}$ inside the universal homogeneous triangle-free graph, $\mathcal{H}_3$, with the…

We consider a question of Edjvet and Vdovina concerning which groups defined by special presentations are large. For each integer $n \ge 3$, we construct an $n$-generator one-relator presentation whose star graph is the complete bipartite…

In this paper we show that a certain solvable Lie group constructed in a paper by Benson and Gordon has no lattices. This result answers (in the negative way) a question posed by several authors in the context of symplectic geometry. The…
