Herzog and Sch\"onheim conjectured that any nontrivial partition of a group into cosets must contain two cosets with the same index.

For any graded poset $P$, we define a new graded poset, $\mathcal E(P)$, whose elements are the edges in the Hasse diagram of P. For any group, $G$, acting on the boolean algebra, $B_n$, we conjecture that $\mathcal E(B_n/G)$ is Peck. We…

We define strict C(n) small-cancellation complexes, intermediate to C(n) and C(n+1), and we prove groups acting properly cocompactly on a simply-connected strict C(6) complex are hyperbolic relative to a collection of maximal virtually free…

An n-vertex graph is called C-Ramsey if it has no clique or independent set of size C log n. All known constructions of Ramsey graphs involve randomness in an essential way, and there is an ongoing line of research towards showing that in…

There are many deep results on the structure of REGULAR probability measures $P(G)$ on compact/locally compact, Hausdorff topological groups G. See, for instance, the classic monographs by KR Parthasarathy, Ulf Grenander, A.Mukherjea and…

Let $X$ be a smooth irreducible quasi-projective algebraic variety over a number field $K$. Suppose $X$ is equipped with a $p$-adic \'{e}tale local system compatible with an admissible graded-polarized variation of mixed Hodge structures on…

An $N$-free poset is a poset whose comparability graph does not embed an induced path with four vertices. We use the well-quasi-order property of the class of countable $N$-free posets and some labelled ordered trees to show that a…

Let $G$ be a simple algebraic group over $\mathbb C$, $B$ a fixed Borel subgroup, $P$ a parabolic subgroup, $P'$ its derived group acting on the Lie algebra $\mathfrak m$ of its nilradical. The nilfibre $\mathscr N$ is the zero locus of the…

Maniplexes are coloured graphs that generalise maps on surfaces and abstract polytopes. Each maniplex uniquely defines a partially ordered set that encodes information about its structure. When this poset is an abstract polytope, we say…

We study completely syndetic (CS) sets in discrete groups - subsets that for every natural n admit finitely many left translates that jointly cover every n-tuple of group elements. While for finitely-generated groups, the non-virtually…

We discuss one construction of nonstandard subgroups in the category of Coxeter groups. Two formulae for the growth series of such a subgroups are given. As an application we construct a flag simple convex polytope, whose f-polynomial has…

Let G be a finite abelian group. This paper is concerned with nonnegative functions on G that are sparse with respect to the Fourier basis. We establish combinatorial conditions on subsets S and T of Fourier basis elements under which…

A group is SimpHAtic if it acts geometrically on a simply connected simplicially hereditarily aspherical (SimpHAtic) complex. We show that finitely presented normal subgroups of the SimpHAtic groups are either: finite, or of finite index,…

We prove that if S is a commutative semigroup with well founded universal semilattice or a solvable inverse semigroup with well founded semilattice of idempotents, then every strongly productive ultrafilter on S is idempotent. Moreover we…

String C-groups are precisely the automorphism groups of abstract regular polytopes. A certain regular d-polytope C_d with an automorphism group of order 2^{2d-1}, discovered by Conder and shown to have the smallest number of flags among…

A mixed dihedral group is a group $H$ with two disjoint subgroups $X$ and $Y$, each elementary abelian of order $2^n$, such that $H$ is generated by $X\cup Y$, and $H/H'\cong X\times Y$. In this paper, for each $n\geq 2$, we construct a…

We prove the $K(\pi,1)$ conjecture for affine Artin groups: the complexified complement of an affine reflection arrangement is a classifying space. This is a long-standing problem, due to Arnol'd, Pham, and Thom. Our proof is based on…

Let G be an arbitrary finite group and let S and T be two subsets such that |S|>1, |T|>1, and |TS|< |T|+|S|< |G|-1. We show that if |S|< |G|-4|G|^{1/2}+1 then either S is a geometric progression or there exists a non-trivial subgroup H such…

We present a concise proof for the supporting hyperplane theorem. We then observe that the proof not only establishes the supporting hyperplane theorem but also extends it to a hyperplane separation theorem for certain non-convex sets. The…

To every poset P, Stanley (1986) associated two polytopes, the order polytope and the chain polytope, whose geometric properties reflect the combinatorial qualities of P. This construction allows for deep insights into combinatorics by way…
