Non-abelian group structure on the Urysohn universal space

Michal Doucha (2015)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

We prove that there exists a non-abelian group structure on the Urysohn universal metric space. More precisely, we introduce a variant of the Graev metric that enables us to construct a free group with countably many generators equipped with a two-sided invariant metric that is isometric to the rational Urysohn space. We list several related open problems.

Nonassociative algebras: some applications.

Santos González, Consuelo Martínez (2003)

Revista Matemática Iberoamericana

Nonassociative algebras can be applied, either directly or using their particular methods, to many other branches of Mathematics and other Sciences. Here emphasis will be given to two concrete applications of nonassociative algebras. In the first one, an application to group theory in the line of the Restricted Burnside Problem will be considered. The second one opens a door to some applications of non-associative algebras to Error correcting Codes and Cryptography.
