Since the 1980s, the Bogomolov multiplier of a finite group has been known to obstruct rationality in complex algebraic geometry, and more recently it is understood to be responsible for any torsion in the oriented and stable unitary 2-dimensional $G$-equivariant bordism groups $\Omega_2^{SO,G}$ and $\Omega_2^{U,G}$. In this note, as a small step toward building a bridge between these two far-flung roles, we discuss the vanishing of Bogomolov multipliers of two specific families of finite groups. First, we revisit Kunyavski\u{i}'s result that the Bogomolov multipliers of all finite simple groups vanish, taking inspiration from the low-dimensional topological interpretation of the Ore conjecture. Second, in lieu of arguments in complex birational geometry (such as the hard direction of the Chevalley-Shephard-Todd theorem), we combine cut-and-paste combinatorial-topological techniques with elementary calculations of Ihara-Yokonuma to show that all finite Coxeter groups have vanishing Bogomolov multiplier.
In this paper, we address the following question: if a flat torus $\mathbb{T}^n$ is isometrically and minimally embedded into a sphere $\mathbb{S}^N$, must its translation group extend to the isometry group of the ambient sphere? As shown by Robert Bryant, for $n=2$ the answer is positive. Furthermore, while Ying Lu, P...
We study left-invariant generalized complex structures on almost abelian Lie groups $G_A = \mathbb{R} \ltimes_{e^{tA}} \mathbb{R}^{d}$, and on the associated solvmanifolds. Our starting point is that the $\mathbf{i}$-eigenspace $\mathfrak{L}$ of such a structure is itself an almost abelian complex Lie algebra, a fact t...

Let $G$ be a torsion-free one-ended hyperbolic group and let $\phi\in\operatorname{Aut} (G)$. We prove that the mapping torus, or suspension, $$ M:=G_{\phi}=G\rtimes_\phi \mathbb{Z} $$ has solvable conjugacy problem. This builds on the pioneering work of Pr\'eaux who solved the conjugacy problem for all (geometrisable)...
In this paper we give a geometric description of the behavior of analytic intertwining operators between parabolically induced representations of $\mathrm{GL}_n(\mathrm{F})$, where $\mathrm{F}$ is a local non-archimedean field, in terms of hyperbolic localization functors of Braden. As a consequence, we can show that t...
Let $X$ carry a transversely holomorphic foliation, equivalently an elliptic involutive structure $V\subset T_{\mathbb C}X$, and let ${\mathcal O}_V$ be its sheaf of leafwise-constant, transversely holomorphic functions. We construct a finite superconnection model for the derived category of coherent ${\mathcal O}_V$-m...
We study the monodromy action of the mixed braid group $B_{n,\mathcal{P}}$ on the first cohomology of cyclic branched covers of $\mathbb{P}^1$, which are mutually determined by a partition of branch points by equal ramification. The monodromy representation splits into irreducible representations on the $t$-eigenspaces...
