In this article, we characterize the (covariant) isotropy groups of free, finitely generated racks and quandles. As a consequence, we show that the usual inner automorphisms of such racks and quandles are precisely those automorphisms that…

We show that the level sets of automorphisms of free groups with respect to the Lipschitz metric are connected as subsets of Culler-Vogtmann space. In fact we prove our result in a more general setting of deformation spaces. As…

A convex chain is a finite integer linear combination of indicator functions of convex polytopes. Khovanskii-Pukhlikov extend the Ehrhart theory of convex lattice polytopes to the setting of convex chains. Extending the relationship between…

Free groups are known to be homogeneous, meaning that finite tuples of elements which satisfy the same first-order properties are in the same orbit under the action of the automorphism group. We show that virtually free groups have a…

We classify the simple even lattices of square free level and signature (2,n) for n > 3. A lattice is called simple if the space of cusp forms of weight 1+n/2 for the dual Weil representation of the lattice is trivial. For a simple lattice…

Let Lambda be a tiled R-order. We give a description of Aut_R(Lambda) as the semidirect product of Inn(Lambda) and a certain subgroup of Aut(Q(Lambda)), where Q(Lambda) is the link graph of Lambda. Additionally, we give criteria for…

If an outer (multilinear) commutator identity holds in a large subgroup of a group, then it holds also in a large characteristic subgroup. Similar assertions are valid for algebras and their ideals or subspaces. Varying the meaning of the…

We give formulae for a module presentation of the module of identities among relations for a presentation of a group, in terms of information on 0- and 1-combings of the Cayley graph. This is seen as a special case of extending a partial…

A word in a group is called a test element if any endomorphism fixing it is necessarily an automorphism. In this note, we give a sufficient condition in geometry to construct test elements for monomorphisms of a free group, by using the…

The Euler characteristic of a very affine variety encodes the number of critical points of the likelihood equation on this variety. In this paper, we study the Euler characteristic of the complement of a hypersurface arrangement with…

We classify compact K\"ahler threefolds $X$ with a free group of automorphisms acting freely on $X$.

This paper studies the rigidity properties of the abstract commensurator of the outer automorphism group of a universal Coxeter group of rank $n$, which is the free product $W_n$ of $n$ copies of $\mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z}$. We prove that for…

Let $p$ be a point of an orientable hyperbolic $3$-manifold $M$, and let $m\ge1$ and $k\ge2$ be integers. Suppose that $\alpha_1,\ldots,\alpha_m$ are loops based at $p$ having length less than $\log(2k-1)$. We show that if $G$ denotes the…

Stallings folding theory is modified, using double coset representatives, and to applied to the study of subgroups of amalgamated products of finite rank free groups. As a first application the subgroup membership problem for such groups is…

We give a combinatorial equivalent to the existence of a non-free hereditarily separable group of cardinality aleph_1. This can be used, together with a known combinatorial equivalent of the existence of a non-free Whitehead group, to prove…

We define a Grothendieck ring of varieties with finite groups actions and show that the orbifold Euler characteristic and the Euler characteristics of higher orders can be defined as homomorphisms from this ring to the ring of integers. We…

In this paper we review some of the fundamental properties of the free group and give a detailed account of Stallings's theory of automata, a geometric interpretation of its subgroups that has been (and still is) immensely fruitful, both as…

We consider the problem of computing the Euler characteristic of an abstract simplicial complex given by its vertices and facets. We show that this problem is #P-complete and present two new practical algorithms for computing Euler…

This article studies automorphism groups of graph products of arbitrary groups. We completely characterise automorphisms that preserve the set of conjugacy classes of vertex groups as those automorphisms that can be decomposed as a product…

The notion of pairable functions is introduced and some of its properties are developed. In this connection the famous Euler identity is interpreted as a property of certain pairable functions and finite cyclic groups.
