چکیده

Let S = Sym(Ω) be the group of all permutations of a countably infinite set Ω, and for subgroups G1, G2 6 S let us write G1 ≈ G2 if there exists a finite set U ⊆ S such that 〈G1 ∪ U 〉 = 〈G2 ∪ U 〉. It is shown that the subgroups closed in the function topology on S lie in precisely four equivalence classes under this relation. Which of these classes a closed subgroup G belongs to depends on which of the following statements about pointwise stabilizer subgroups G(Γ) of finite subsets Γ ⊆ Ω holds: (i) For every finite set Γ, the subgroup G(Γ) has at least one infinite orbit in Ω . (ii) There exist finite sets Γ such that all orbits of G(Γ) are finite, but none such that the cardinalities of these orbits have a common finite bound. (iii) There exist finite sets Γ such that the cardinalities of the orbits of G(Γ) have a common finite bound, but none such that G(Γ) = {1}. (iv) There exist finite sets Γ such that G(Γ) = {1}. Some related results and topics for further investigation are noted.

We study those Artin groups which, modulo their centers, are finite index subgroups of the mapping class group of a sphere with at least 5 punctures. In particular, we show that any injective homomorphism between these groups is parameterized by a homeomorphism of a punctured sphere together with a map to the integers. We also give a generating set for the automorphism group of the pure braid g...

For every hyperbolic group and more general hyperbolic graphs, we construct an equivariant ideal bicombing: this is a homological analogue of the geodesic flow on negatively curved manifolds. We then construct a cohomological invariant which implies that several Measure Equivalence and Orbit Equivalence rigidity results established in [MSb] hold for all non-elementary hyperbolic groups and thei...
