Theory of coverings in the study of Riemann surfaces

Ewa Tyszkowska (2012)

Colloquium Mathematicae

For a G-covering Y → Y/G = X induced by a properly discontinuous action of a group G on a topological space Y, there is a natural action of π(X,x) on the set F of points in Y with nontrivial stabilizers in G. We study the covering of X obtained from the universal covering of X and the left action of π(X,x) on F. We find a formula for the number of fixed points of an element g ∈ G which is a generalization of Macbeath's formula applied to an automorphism of a Riemann surface. We give a new method...

Torsion matrices over commutative integral group rings.

Gregory T. Lee, Sudarshan K. Sehgal (2000)

Publicacions Matemàtiques

Let ZA be the integral group ring of a finite abelian group A, and n a positive integer greater than 5. We provide conditions on n and A under which every torsion matrix U, with identity augmentation, in GLn(ZA) is conjugate in GLn(QA) to a diagonal matrix with group elements on the diagonal. When A is infinite, we show that under similar conditions, U has a group trace and is stably conjugate to such a diagonal matrix.

Traces, lengths, axes and commensurability

Alan W. Reid (2014)

Annales de la faculté des sciences de Toulouse Mathématiques

The focus of this paper are questions related to how various geometric and analytical properties of hyperbolic 3-manifolds determine the commensurability class of such manifolds. The paper is for the large part a survey of recent work.
