In this paper we introduce two versal $S_4$ coverings, and show that the two are birationaly distinct, i.e. there exists no $S_4$ equivariant birational map between them. We also introduce two versal $A_5$ coverings and show that the two…

We give an explicit handy (and cocycle-free) description of the groupoid of weak maps between two crossed-modules in terms of certain digrams of groups which we we call a {\em butterflies}. We define composition of butterflies and this way…

We apply the results of arXiv:1109.3573 to study quadro-quadric Cremona transformations in low-dimensional projective spaces. In particular we describe new very simple families of such birational maps and obtain complete and explicit…

In this paper, we apply the techniques developed in [5] to present several consequences of studying UMP algebras and the ramifications graph of a monomial bound quiver algebra. Specifically, we prove that every weakly connected component of…

For simple algebraic groups defined over algebraically closed fields of good characteristic, we give upper bounds on the covering numbers of unipotent conjugacy classes in terms of their (co)ranks and in terms of their dimensions.

We classify pairs of conjugacy classes in almost simple algebraic groups whose product consists of finitely many classes. This leads to several interesting families of examples which are related to a generalization of the Baer--Suzuki…

We define orbifold mapping class groups (with marked points) and study them using their action on certain orbifold analogs of arcs and simple closed curves. Moreover, we establish a Birman exact sequence for suitable subgroups of orbifold…

To any nodal curve $C$ is associated the degree class group, a combinatorial invariant which plays an important role in the compactification of the generalised Jacobian of $C$ and in the construction of the N\'eron model of the Picard…

We study large groups of birational transformations Bir(X), where X is a variety of dimension at least 3, defined over C or a subfield of C. Two prominent cases are when X is the projective space, in which case Bir(X) is the Cremona group…

We study families of elliptic curves of degree n+1 in $P^n$ containing a fixed set of m points. In the case m = n+3 we show that this family is birationally isomorphic to a smooth complete intersection of n-2 diagonal quadrics in $P^{n+2}$.…

We study embeddings of symmetric groups to the space Cremona group.

The Cremona group of birational transformations of $\mathbb{P}^2_\mathbb{C}$ acts on the space $\mathbb{F}(2)$ of holomorphic foliations on the complex projective plane. Since this action is not compatible with the natural graduation of…

We study conjugacy limits of certain of subgroups inside $\SL(2,\R)\ltimes\R^2$. These subgroups have a common feature that any two in the same category are conjugates of each other.

Two birational subvarieties of P^n are called Cremona equivalent if there is a Cremona modification of P^n mapping one to the other. If the codimension of the varieties is at least 2 then they are always Cremona Equivalent. For divisors the…

We determine the conjugacy classes of semisimple elements in the symplectic groups ${\rm Sp}(2m,F)$, where $F$ is an arbitrary field of characteristic not $2$. This note was originally a letter dated 23 March, 2006, from G.E. Wall to Cheryl…

We express the set of representations from a cyclic $p$-group to a connected $p$-compact group in terms of the associated reflection group and compute its cardinality for each exotic $p$-compact group.

We show that the real Cremona group of the plane is a non-trivial amalgam of two groups amalgamated along their intersection and give an alternative proof of its abelianisation.

Given a conjugacy class $\mathcal{C}$ in a group $G$ we define a new graph, $\Gamma(\mathcal{C})$, whose vertices are elements of $\mathcal{C}$; two vertices $g,h\in \mathcal{C}$ are connected in $\Gamma(\mathcal{C})$ if $[g,h]=1$ and…

Let $G$ be a finite group. Let $k(G)$ denote the number of conjugacy classes of $G$ and let $m(G)$ denote the least positive integer $n$ such that the union of any $n$ distinct non-trivial conjugacy classes of $G$ together with the identity…

We use combinatorics tools to reobtain the classification of monomial quadratic Cremona transformations in any number of variables given in \cite{SV2} and to classify and count square free cubic Cremona maps with at most six variables, up…
