In this article, we define amorphic complexity for actions of locally compact $\sigma$-compact amenable groups on compact metric spaces. Amorphic complexity, originally introduced for $\mathbb Z$-actions, is a topological invariant which…

We investigate linearity of amalgams of subgroups of algebraic groups along intersections with algebraic subgroups. In the process, we establish linearity of certain "doubles" of linear groups, and obtain new examples of finitely generated…

We discuss several rigidity and flexibility phenomena in the context of Poisson geometry.

In this note we survey recent results on automorphisms of affine algebraic varieties, infinitely transitive group actions and flexibility. We present related constructions and examples, and discuss geometric applications and open problems.

We describe our recent results concerning the rigidity/unlockability properties of clusters of rigid bodies sliding over the unit sphere.

The rigidity propeties of higher rank diagonalizable actions is a major theme in homogenous dynamics, with origins in work of Cassels and Swinnerton-Dyer in the 1950s and Furstenberg. We survey both results and conjectures regarding such…

Consider homogeneous G/H and G/F, for an S-algebraic group G. A lattice {\Gamma} acts on the left strictly conservatively. The following rigidity results are obtained: morphisms, factors and joinings defined apriori only in the measurable…

We determine all finite maximal elementary abelian group actions on compact oriented surfaces of genus $\sigma\geq 2$ which are unique up to topological equivalence. For certain special classes of such actions, we determine group extensions…

We characterize the strong metric dimension of the power graph of a finite group. As applications, we compute the strong metric dimension of the power graph of a cyclic group, an abelian group, a dihedral group or a generalized quaternion…

We introduce asymptotically rigid mapping class groups of handlebodies and determine their finiteness properties, which vary depending on the space of ends of the underlying handlebody. As it turns out, in some cases, the homology of these…

We establish the existence of new rigidity and rationality phenomena in the theory of nonabelian group actions on the circle, and introduce tools to translate questions about the existence of actions with prescribed dynamics into finite…

We study the character theory of metabelian and polycyclic groups. It is used to investigate Hilbert-Schmidt stability via the character-theoretic criterion of Hadwin and Shulman. There is a close connection between stability and dynamics…

We study the invariant subspaces of abelian operator algebras of finite split strict multiplicity. We give sufficient conditions for the reflexivity and hereditary reflexivity of these algebras.

We study mixing properties of commutative groups of automorphisms acting on compact nilmanifolds. Assuming that every nontrivial element acts ergodically, we prove that such actions are mixing of all orders. We further show exponential…

A free action of a finite group on an odd-dimensional sphere is said to be almost linear if the action restricted to each cyclic or 2-hyperelementary subgroup is conjugate to a free linear action. We begin this survey paper by reviewing the…

We will show the raitonality of some twisted symmetric group actions.

Given a fibration over the circle, we relate the eigenspace decomposition of the algebraic monodromy, the homological finiteness properties of the fiber, and the formality properties of the total space. In the process, we prove a more…

The paper is a short survey of recent developments in the area of first order descriptions of linear groups. It is aimed to illuminate the known results and to pose the new problems relevant to logical characterizations of Chevalley groups…

This is a survey on rigidity and geometrization results obtained with the help of the discrete Hilbert-Einstein functional, written for the proceedings of the "Discrete Curvature" colloquium in Luminy.

Motivated by Popa's seminal work \cite{Po04}, in this paper, we provide a fairly large class of examples of group actions $\Gamma \curvearrowright X$ satisfying the extended Neshveyev-St{\o}rmer rigidity phenomenon \cite{NS03}: whenever…
