We consider the symplectic representation $\rho_n$ of a braid group $B(n)$ in $Sp(2l,\mathbb{Z})$, for $l=\Big[\dfrac{n-1}{2}\Big]$. If $P$ is a polynomial on the $4l^2$ coefficients of the matrices in $Sp(2l,\mathbb{Z})$, we show that the…

Let $R$ be a smooth affine domain of dimension $d\geq 2$ over an infinite perfect field $k$. We establish a morphism from the Euler class group $E^d(R)$ to $Um_{d+1}(R)/E_{d+1}(R)$, the group of elementary orbits of unimodular rows.

This paper studies the generic behavior of $k$-tuple elements for $k\ge 2$ in a proper group action with contracting elements, with applications towards relatively hyperbolic groups, CAT(0) groups and mapping class groups. For a class of…

For an arbitrary ring $A$, we study the abelianization of the elementary group $\textrm{E}_2(A)$. In particular, we show that for a commutative ring $A$ there exists an exact sequence \[ K_2(2,A)/C(2,A) \to A/M \to…

Transformational musical theory has so far mainly focused on the study of groups acting on musical chords, one of the most famous example being the action of the dihedral group D24 on the set of major and minor chords. Comparatively less…

Let $G$ be a Lie group with a biinvariant metric, not necessarily positive definite. It is shown that a certain construction carried out in an earlier paper for the fundamental group of a closed surface may be extended to an arbitrary…

Let $R$ be a finite commutative ring with unity $1_R$ and $k \in R$. Properties of one-sided $k$-orthogonal $n \times n$ matrices over $R$ are presented. When $k$ is idempotent, these matrices form a semigroup structure. Consequently new…

Let $M$ be a multiplicative monoid with identity. Then I show that there is a universal one dimensional formal group law equipped with an action of $M$. If $M$ is $p$-perfect (i.e. $m\mapsto m^p$ is an isomorphism for some prime number $p$)…

For every group $G$, we show that either $G$ has a topologically transitive action on the line $\mathbb R$ by orientation-preserving homeomorphisms, or every orientation-preserving action of $G$ on $\mathbb R$ has a wandering interval.…

We consider faithful actions of simple algebraic groups on self-dual irreducible modules, and on the associated varieties of totally singular subspaces, under the assumption that the dimension of the group is at least as large as the…

For a classical group $G$ of type $\mathsf D_n$ over a field $k$ of characteristic different from $2$, we show the existence of a finitely generated regular extension $R$ of $k$ such that $G$ admits outer automorphisms over $R$. Using this…

The main result of this paper is a convexity theorem for momentum mappings of certain hamiltonian actions of noncompact semisimple Lie groups. The image is required to fall within a certain open subset D of the (dual of the) Lie algebra,…

A classical result by Solodov states that if a group acts on the line such that any non-trivial element has at most one fixed point, then the action is either abelian or semi-conjugate to an affine action. We show that the same holds if we…

We describe a new class of groups of Burnside type, giving a procedure transforming an arbitrary non-free minimal action of the dihedral group on a Cantor set into an orbit-equivalent action of an infinite finitely generated periodic group.…

We describe explicitly all actions of the quantum permutation groups on classical compact spaces. In particular, we show that the defining action is the only non-trivial ergodic one. We then extend these results to all easy quantum groups…

Let $G$ be a permutation group acting on a finite set $\Omega$ of cardinality $n$. The number of orbits of the induced action of $G$ on the set $\Omega_m$ of all size $m$ subsets of $\Omega$ satisfies the trivial inequalities…

Let $(R,\mathfrak m,\mathsf k)$ be either a fiber product or an artinian stretched Gorenstein ring, with $\operatorname{ch}(\mathsf k)\neq 2$ in the latter case. We prove that the ideals of minors of the minimal free resolution of any…

We construct large families of groups admitting free transitive actions on median spaces. In particular, we construct groups which act freely and transitively on the complete universal real tree with continuum valence such that any subgroup…

Given an action of a group $G$ by automorphisms on an infinite relational structure $\mathcal{M}$, we say that the action is structurally sharply $k$-transitive if, for any two $k$-tuples $\bar{a}, \bar{b} \in M^k$ of distinct elements such…

Let $\Gamma_n(\mathcal{\scriptstyle{O}}_\mathbb{K})$ denote the Hermitian modular group of degree $n$ over an imaginary-quadratic number field $\mathbb{K}$. In this paper we determine its maximal discrete extension in $SU(n,n;\mathbb{C})$,…
