Classically, an abelian group $G$ is said to be slender if every homomorphism from the countable product $mathbb Z^{mathbb N}$ to $G$ factors through the projection to some finite product $mathbb Z^n$. Various authors have proposed generalizations to non-commutative groups, resulting in a plethora of similar but not completely equivalent concepts. In the first part of this work we present a unified treatment of these concepts and examine how are they related. In the second part of the paper we study slender groups in the context of co-small objects in certain categories, and give several new applications including the proof that certain homology groups of Barratt-Milnor spaces are cotorsion groups and a universal coefficients theorem for v{C}ech cohomology with coefficients in a slender group.
经典地说,如果从可数积$mathbb Z^{mathbb N}$到$G$的所有同态通过投影到某个有限积$mathbb Z^ N $,则一个阿贝尔群$G$是细长的。许多作者提出了对非交换群的推广,导致了大量相似但不完全等价的概念。在这项工作的第一部分,我们提出了这些概念的统一处理,并检查它们是如何相关的。在第二部分中,我们研究了特定范畴中共小对象下的细长群,给出了若干新的应用,包括证明Barratt-Milnor空间的某些同调群是扭转群,以及在细长群中v{C}ech上同调与系数的一个普适系数定理。

. A rotated odometer is an infinite interval exchange transformation (IET) obtained as a composition of the von Neumann-Kakutani map and a finite IET of intervals of equal length. In this paper, we consider rotated odometers for which the finite IET is of intervals of length 2 − N , for some N ≥ 1. We show that every such system is measurably isomorphic to a Z -action on a rooted tree, and that the unique minimal aperiodic subsystem of this action is always measurably isomorphic to the action of the adding machine. We discuss the applications of this work to the study of group actions on binary trees.

Our main object of interest is the following notion: we say that a topological space space $X$ is in FinBW($mathcal{I}$), where $mathcal{I}$ is an ideal on $omega$, if for each sequence $(x_n)_{ninomega}$ in $X$ one can find an $Anotinmathcal{I}$ such that $(x_n)_{nin A}$ converges in $X$. We define an ideal $mathcal{BI}$ which is critical for FinBW($mathcal{I}$) in the following sense: Under CH, for every ideal $mathcal{I}$, $mathcal{BI}notleq_Kmathcal{I}$ ($leq_K$ denotes the Katv{e}tov preorder of ideals) iff there is an uncountable separable space in FinBW($mathcal{I}$). We show that $mathcal{BI}notleq_Kmathcal{I}$ and $omega_1$ with the order topology is in FinBW($mathcal{I}$), for all $bf{Pi^0_4}$ ideals $mathcal{I}$. We examine when FinBW($mathcal{I}$)$setminus$FinBW($mathcal{J}$) is nonempty: we prove under MA($sigma$-centered) that for $bf{Pi^0_4}$ ideals $mathcal{I}$ and $mathcal{J}$ this is equivalent to $mathcal{J}notleq_Kmathcal{I}$. Moreover, answering in negative a question of M. Hruv{s}'ak and D. Meza-Alc'antara, we show that the ideal $text{Fin}timestext{Fin}$ is not critical among Borel ideals for extendability to a $bf{Pi^0_3}$ ideal. Finally, we apply our results in studies of Hindman spaces and in the context of analytic P-ideals.

In this short note, we introduce a generalization of the canonical base property, called transfer of internality on quotients. A structural study of groups definable in theories with this property yields as a consequence infinitely many new uncountably categorical additive covers of the complex numbers without the canonical base property.

We prove that the factorization of a saturated fusion system over a discrete $p$-toral group as a product of indecomposable subsystems is unique up to normal automorphisms of the fusion system and permutations of the factors. In particular, if the fusion system has trivial center, or if its focal subgroup is the entire Sylow group, then this factorization is unique (up to the ordering of the factors). This result was motivated by questions about automorphism groups of products of fusion systems.

This paper is a modified chapter of the author’s Ph.D. thesis. We introduce the notions of sequentially approximated types and sequentially approximated Keisler measures. As the names imply, these are types which can be approximated by a sequence of realized types and measures which can be approximated by a sequence of “averaging measures” on tuples of realized types. We show that both generically stable types (in arbitrary theories) and Keisler measures which are finitely satisfiable over a countable model (in NIP theories) are sequentially approximated. We also introduce the notion of a smooth sequence in a measure over a model and give an equivalent characterization of generically stable measures (in NIP theories) via this definition. In the last section, we take the opportunity to generalize the main result of [8].

The main goal of this paper is to prove that the space of directed loops on the final precubical set is homotopy equivalent to the “total” configuration space of points on the plane; by “total” we mean that any finite number of points in a configuration is allowed. We also provide several applications: we define new invariants of precubical sets, prove that directed path spaces on any precubical complex have the homotopy types of CW-complexes and construct certain presentations of configuration spaces of points on the plane as nerves of categories.
