A Beauville surface (of unmixed type) is a complex algebraic surface which is the quotient of the product of two curves of genus at least 2 by a finite group G acting freely on the product, where G preserves the two curves and their…

We study the interplay between Steinberg algebras and partial skew rings: For a partial action of a group in a Hausdorff, locally compact, totally disconnected topological space, we realize the associated partial skew group ring as a…

For a compact convex subset K with non-empty interior in a finite-dimensional vector space, let G be the group of all smooth diffeomorphisms of K which fix the boundary of K pointwise. We show that G is a C^0-regular infinite-dimensional…

Ergodic and combinatorial results obtained in [10] involved measure preserving actions of the affine group ${\mathcal A}_K$ of a countable field $K$. In this paper we develop a new approach based on ultrafilter limits which allows one to…

For every field $k$ of characteristic zero, we determine the groups that act as automorphisms on a smooth cubic surface over $k$. We also determine the groups that act on $k$-rational, stably $k$-rational, or $k$-unirational smooth cubic…

We study the automorphism group of the algebraic closure of a substructure A of a pseudo-finite field F. We show that the behavior of this group, even when A is large, depends essentially on the roots of unity in F. For almost all…

For each finite classical group $G$, we classify the subgroups of $G$ which act transitively on a $G$-invariant set of subspaces of the natural module, where the subspaces are either totally isotropic or nondegenerate. Our proof uses the…

The w_\infty algebra is a particular generalization of the Virasoro algebra with generators of higher spin 2,3,...,\infty. It can be viewed as the algebra of a class of functions, relative to a Poisson bracket, on a suitably chosen surface.…

We give a new proof that compact infra-solvmanifolds with isomorphic fundamental groups are smoothly diffeomorphic. More generally, we prove rigidity results for manifolds which are constructed using affine actions of virtually polycyclic…

Motivated by the Lawrence-Krammer-Bigelow representations of the classical braid groups, we study the homology of unordered configurations in an orientable genus-$g$ surface with one boundary component, over non-commutative local systems…

We are interested in finite groups acting orientation-preservingly on 3-manifolds (arbitrary actions, ie not necessarily free actions). In particular we consider finite groups which contain an involution with nonempty connected fixed point…

A Beauville surface is a rigid complex surface of the form (C1 x C2)/G, where C1 and C2 are non-singular, projective, higher genus curves, and G is a finite group acting freely on the product. Bauer, Catanese, and Grunewald conjectured that…

On a closed and connected symplectic manifold, the group of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms has the structure of an infinite-dimensional Fr\'echet Lie group, where the Lie algebra is naturally identified with the space of smooth and zero-mean…

Finite-sheeted covering mappings onto compact connected groups are studied. It is shown that a finite-sheeted covering mapping from a connected Hausdorff topological space onto a compact connected abelian group G must be a homeomorphism…

We show that automorphism groups of Hopf and Kodaira surfaces have unbounded finite subgroups. For elliptic fibrations on Hopf, Kodaira, bielliptic, and K3 surfaces, we make some observations on finite groups acting along the fibers and on…

If G is a (connected) complex Lie Group and Z is a generalized flag manifold for G, the the open orbits D of a (connected) real form G_0 of G form an interesting class of complex homogeneous spaces, which play an important role in the…

We classify simple groups that act by birational transformations on compact complex K\"ahler surfaces. Moreover, we show that every finitely generated simple group that acts non-trivially by birational transformations on a projective…

We analyze the algebraic structures of G--Frobenius algebras which are the algebras associated to global group quotient objects. Here G is any finite group. These algebras turn out to be modules over the Drinfeld double of the group ring…

The theme of this survey is that subgroups of the mapping class group of a finite type surface S can be studied via the geometric/dynamical properties of their action on the Thurston compactification of the Teichmuller space of S, just as…

We prove that a $C^{\infty}$-generic area-preserving diffeomorphism of a closed, oriented surface admits a sequence of equidistributed periodic orbits. This is a quantitative refinement of the recently established generic density theorem…
