Families of unconditionally $tau$-closed and $tau$-algebraic sets in a group are defined, which are natural generalizations of unconditionally closed and algebraic sets defined by Markov. A sufficient condition for the coincidence of these families is found. In particular, it is proved that these families coincide in any group of cardinality at most $tau$. This result generalizes both Markovs theorem on the coincidence of unconditionally closed and algebraic sets in a countable group (as is known, they may be different in an uncountable group) and Podewskis theorem on the topologizablity of any ungebunden group.
It is proved that, in certain subgroups of direct products of countable groups, the property of being an unconditionally closed set coincides with that of being an algebraic set. In particular, these properties coincide in all Abelian groups.
We prove continuity results for abstract epimorphisms of locally compact groups onto finitely generated groups.
Given a group $X$ we study the algebraic structure of the compact right-topological semigroup $lambda(X)$ consisting of maximal linked systems on $X$. This semigroup contains the semigroup $beta(X)$ of ultrafilters as a closed subsemigroup. We construct a faithful representation of the semigroup $lambda(X)$ in the semigroup of all self-maps of the power-set of $X$ and using this representation describe the structure of minimal ideal and minimal left ideals of $lambda(X)$ for each twinic group $X$. The class of twinic groups includes all amenable groups and all groups with periodic commutators but does not include the free group with two generators.
A discrete subset $S$ of a topological gyrogroup $G$ with the identity $0$ is said to be a {it suitable set} for $G$ if it generates a dense subgyrogroup of $G$ and $Scup {0}$ is closed in $G$. In this paper, it was proved that each countable Hausdorff topological gyrogroup has a suitable set; moreover, it is shown that each separable metrizable strongly topological gyrogroup has a suitable set.
Fixing an arithmetic lattice $Gamma$ in an algebraic group $G$, the commensurability growth function assigns to each $n$ the cardinality of the set of subgroups $Delta$ with $[Gamma : Gamma cap Delta] [Delta: Gamma cap Delta] = n$. This growth function gives a new setting where methods of F. Grunewald, D. Segal, and G. C. Smiths Subgroups of finite index in nilpotent groups apply to study arithmetic lattices in an algebraic group. In particular, we show that for any unipotent algebraic $mathbb{Z}$-group with arithmetic lattice $Gamma$, the Dirichlet function associated to the commensurability growth function satisfies an Euler decomposition. Moreover, the local parts are rational functions in $p^{-s}$, where the degrees of the numerator and denominator are independent of $p$. This gives regularity results for the set of arithmetic lattices in $G$.
