We prove that $\mathrm{SL}_3(\mathbb{Z})$ contains a non-split sharply 2-transitive subgroup, answering a question of Glasner and Gulko. We also prove that $\mathrm{SL}_4(\mathbb{Z})$ contains a non-split sharply 3-transitive subgroup, but…

We prove that all lattices of Sp(2n,R), except those commensurable with Sp(4k+2,Z) when n=2k+1, contain the image of infinitely many mapping class group orbits of Zariski-dense maximal representation that are continuous deformations of…

In 1933 B.~H.~Neumann constructed uncountably many subgroups of ${\rm SL}_2(\mathbb Z)$ which act regularly on the primitive elements of $\mathbb Z^2$. As pointed out by Magnus, their images in the modular group ${\rm PSL}_2(\mathbb Z)\cong…

The subdegrees of a transitive permutation group are the orbit lengths of a point stabilizer. For a finite primitive permutation group which is not cyclic of prime order, the largest subdegree shares a non-trivial common factor with each…

We prove that, in both real and complex cases, there exists a pair of matrices that generates a dense subsemigroup of the set of $n\times n$ matrices.

A quasigroup $Q$ is called maximally nonassociative if for $x,y,z\in Q$ we have that $x\cdot (y\cdot z) = (x\cdot y)\cdot z$ only if $x=y=z$. We show that, with finitely many exceptions, there exists a maximally nonassociative quasigroup of…

We construct large classes of maximal commutative subalgebras in prime Steinberg algebras, generalizing a known result for Leavitt path algebras.

We determine all maximal subgroups of the almost simple groups with socle $T=\PSL(2,q)$, that is, of all groups $G$ such that $\PSL(2,q)\leqslant G\leqslant\PGammaL(2,q)$, with $q\geq 4$.

We give a complete characterization of abelian subgroups of GL(n, R) with a locally dense (resp. dense) orbit in R^n. For finitely generated subgroups, this characterization is explicit and it is used to show that no abelian subgroup of…

We determine the semi-regular subgroups of the 2-transitive permutation groups PGL(2,n), PSL(2,n), PGU(3,n), PSU(3,n), Sz(n) and Ree(n) with n a suitable power of a prime number p.

How to find "best rational approximations" of maximal commutative subgroups of GL(n,R)? In this paper we pose and make first steps in the study of this problem. It contains both classical problems of Diophantine and simultaneous…

The classification of the maximal subgroups of the Monster $\mathbf{M}$ is a long-standing problem in finite group theory. According to the literature, the classification is complete apart from the question of whether $\mathbf{M}$ contains…

We study the maximal subgroups (also known as group $\mathcal{H}$-classes) of finitely presented special inverse monoids. We show that the maximal subgroups which can arise in such monoids are exactly the recursively presented groups, and…

We conclude from the results of Hanguang Meng and Xiuyun Guo some corollaries about the existence of strictly 2-maximal subgroups in groups. We give examples of groups that illustrate properties of strictly 2-maximal subgroups.

We show that the groups AGL_n(Q) and PGL_n(Q), seen as closed subgroups of S_{\infty}, are maximal-closed.

Let $k$ be a complete non-archimedean field (non trivially valued). Given a reductive $k$-group $G$, we prove that hyperspecial subgroups of $G(k)$ (i.e. those arising from reductive models of $G$) are maximal among bounded subgroups. The…

It was shown in Part I that there exist strongly dense free subgroups in any semisimple algebraic group over a large enough field. These are nonabelian free subgroups all of whose subgroups are either cyclic or Zariski-dense. Here we show…

This paper almost classifies the maximal subgroups of $E_7(q)$ for general $q$ a power of a prime $p$. Only four potential maximal subgroups are missing: $PSL_2(7)$ (unknown for $p\neq 2,3,7$), $PSL_2(8)$ ($p=2$) and $PSL_2(9)=A_6$ ($p\neq…

We initiate a study of maximal subgroups and maximal von Neumann subalgebras which have the Haagerup property. We determine maximal Haagerup subgroups inside $\mathbb{Z}^2 \rtimes SL_2(\mathbb{Z})$ and obtain several explicit instances…

Extending earlier work of Guralnick and of Cai and Zhang, we classify the almost simple groups which have transitive permutation representations of prime power degree $p^k$, and those which have $p$-complements (stabilisers of order coprime…
