The goal of this paper is to show that many key results found in the study of Einstein Lorentzian nilpotent Lie algebras can still hold in the more general settings of unimodular Lie algebras and (completely) solvable Lie algebras.

The problem of homological stability helps us to catch the structure of group homology. We calculate homological stability of special orthogonal groups, and we also calculate the stability of orthogonal groups with determinant-twisted…

Over the last several years, there has been a resurgence of interest in using non-perturbative approximation methods based on Wilson's continuous renormalization group. In this lecture, I review progress particularly in the past year,…

In this article we present an unpublished proof of W. Thurston that pure braid groups have the congruence subgroup property.

The main results in this thesis deal with the representation growth of certain classes of groups. In chapter $1$ we present the required preliminary theory. In chapter $2$ we introduce the Congruence Subgroup Problem for an algebraic group…

We present a number of results relating partial Cauchy-Littlewood sums, integrals over the compact classical groups, and increasing subsequences of permutations. These include: integral formulae for the distribution of the longest…

When does the complex product of a given number of subsets of a group generate the same subgroup as their union? We answer this question in a more general form by introducing HS-stability and characterising the HS-stable involution…

We prove that the isomorphism problem for group algebras reduces to group algebras over finite extensions of the prime field. In particular, the modular isomorphism problem reduces to finite modular group algebras.

Let $KG$ denote the group algebra of the group $G$ over the field $K$ and let $U(KG)$ denote its group of units. Here without the use of a computer we give presentations for the unit groups of all group algebras $KG$, where the size of $KG$…

We investigate the notion of a subgroup of a quantum group. We suggest a general definition, which takes into account the work that has been done for quantum homogeneous spaces. We further restrict our attention to reductive subgroups,…

We construct a class of finitely presented groups where the isomorphism problem is solvable but the commensurability problem is unsolvable. Conversely, we construct a class of finitely presented groups within which the commensurability…

Quasi-median graphs have been introduced by Mulder in 1980 as a generalisation of median graphs, known in geometric group theory to naturally coincide with the class of CAT(0) cube complexes. In his PhD thesis, the author showed that…

In this paper we characterize the monoid congruences of commutative semigroups by the help of the notion of the separator of subsets of semigroups. We show that every monoid congruence of a commutative semigroup S can be constructed by the…

I review some aspects of supersymmetric grand unification and emphasize a recent development in the area of gauge coupling unification.

The classical theory of regularity of embeddings of compact convex sets was developed in the 1970s, exclusively in the real case, and even there it does not appear to have been stated in its simplest form. We begin by revisiting this…

We investigate whether the group algebra of a finite group over a localisation of the integers is semiperfect. The main result is a necessary and sufficient arithmetic criterion in the ordinary case. In the modular case, we propose a…

A number of years ago, Kumar Murty pointed out to me that the computation of the fundamental group of a Hilbert modular surface ([7],IV,${\S}$6), and the computation of the congruence subgroup kernel of SL(2) ([6]) were surprisingly…

It is a well-known open problem since the 1970s whether a finitely generated perfect group can be normally generated by a single element or not. We prove that the topological version of this problem has an affirmative answer as long as we…

The semigroup $\mathbf{I}\mathbb{N}_{\infty}$ of all partial co-finite isometries of positive integers is studied. We describe Green's relations on the semigroup $\mathbf{I}\mathbb{N}_{\infty}$, its band and proved that…

This paper addresses the problem of decomposing a numerical semigroup into m-irreducible numerical semigroups. The problem originally stated in algebraic terms is translated, introducing the so called Kunz-coordinates, to resolve a series…
