We present an axiomatic approach to combination theorems for various homological properties of groups and, more generally, of chain complexes. Examples of such properties include algebraic finiteness properties, $ell^2$-invisibility, $ell^2$-acyclicity, lower bounds for Novikov--Shubin invariants, and vanishing of homology growth. We introduce an algebraic version of Ab'ert--Bergeron--Frk{a}czyk--Gaboriau's cheap rebuilding property that implies vanishing of torsion homology growth and admits a combination theorem. As an application, we show that certain graphs of groups with amenable vertex groups and elementary amenable edge groups have vanishing torsion homology growth.

We study smooth actions by lattices $Gamma$ in higher-rank simple Lie groups $G$ assuming one element of the action acts with positive topological entropy and prove a number of new rigidity results. For lattices $Gamma$ in $mathrm{SL}(n,mathbb{R})$ acting on $n$-manifolds, if the action has positive topological entropy we show the lattice must be commensurable with $mathrm{SL}(n,mathbb{Z})$. Moreover, such actions admit an absolutely continuous probability measure with positive metric entropy; adapting arguments by Katok and Rodriguez Hertz, we show such actions are measurably conjugate to affine actions on (infra)tori. In our main technical arguments, we study families of probability measures invariant under sub-actions of the induced $G$-action on an associated fiber bundle. To control entropy properties of such measures, in the appendix we establish certain upper semicontinuity of entropy under weak-$*$ convergence, adapting classical results of Yomdin and Newhouse.

We show that continuous epimorphisms between a class of subgroups of mapping class groups of orientable infinite-genus 2-manifolds with no planar ends are always induced by homeomorphisms. This class of subgroups includes the pure mapping class group, the closure of the compactly supported mapping classes, and the full mapping class group in the case that the underlying manifold has a finite number of ends or is perfectly self-similar. As a corollary, these groups are Hopfian topological groups.

In this article, we investigate symmetric designs admitting a flag-transitive and point-primitive affine automorphism group. We prove that if an automorphism group $G$ of a symmetric $(v,k,lambda)$ design with $lambda$ prime is point-primitive of affine type, then $G=2^{6}{:}mathrm{S}_{6}$ and $(v,k,lambda)=(16,6,2)$, or $G$ is a subgroup of $mathrm{AGamma L}_{1}(q)$ for some odd prime power $q$. In conclusion, we present a classification of flag-transitive and point-primitive symmetric designs with $lambda$ prime, which says that such an incidence structure is a projective space $mathrm{PG}(n,q)$, it has parameter set $(15,7,3)$, $(7, 4, 2)$, $(11, 5, 2)$, $(11, 6, 2)$, $(16,6,2)$ or $(45, 12, 3)$, or $v=p^d$ where $p$ is an odd prime and the automorphism group is a subgroup of $mathrm{AGamma L}_{1}(q)$.

It is known that an abelian group $A$ and a $2$-cocycle $c:A times A to C$ yield a group ${mathscr{H}}(A,C,c)$ which we call a Heisenberg group. This group, a central extension of $A$, is the archetype of a class~$2$ nilpotent group. In this note, we prove that under mild conditions, any class~$2$ nilpotent group $G$ is equivalent as an extension of $G/[G,G]$ to a Heisenberg group ${mathscr{H}}(G/[G,G], [G,G], c')$ whose $2$-cocycle $c'$ is bimultiplicative.
众所周知，一个无性群 $A$ 和一个 $2$ 循环 $c:A times A to C$ 产生一个群 ${mathscr{H}}(A,C,c)$ 我们称之为海森堡群。这个群是 $A$ 的中心扩展，是类~$2$ 无穷群的原型。在本论文中，我们将证明在温和的条件下，任何一个类~$2$无穷群 $G$都等价于$G/[G,G]$的一个扩展，即一个海森堡群 ${mathscr{H}}(G/[G,G],[G,G],c')$，其$2$循环 $c'$是二乘的。

We prove that if $G$ is a transitive permutation group of sufficiently large degree $n$, then either $G$ is primitive and Frobenius, or the proportion of derangements in $G$ is larger than $1/(2n^{1/2})$. This is sharp, generalizes substantially bounds of Cameron--Cohen and Guralnick--Wan, and settles a conjecture of Guralnick--Tiep in large degree. We also give an application to coverings of varieties over finite fields.
