Finite axiomatizability for profinite groups
Abstract A group is finitely axiomatizable (FA) in a class C if it can be determined up to isomorphism within C by a sentence in the first‐order language of group theory. We show that profinite groups of various kinds are FA in the class of profinite groups, or in the class of pro‐p groups for some prime p.

Cohomology of Finite Groups: Interactions and Applications (hybrid meeting) [PDF]
The cohomology of finite groups is an important tool in many subjects including representation theory and algebraic topology. This meeting was the fifth in a series that has emphasized the interactions of group cohomology with other areas. In spite of

Compact groups in which all elements are almost right Engel [PDF]
We say that an element g of a group G is almost right Engel if there is a finite set R(g) such that for every x∈G all sufficiently long commutators [...[[g,x],x],…,x] belong to R(g), that is, for every x∈G there is a positive integer n(x,g) such that [...

The effect of homeownership on the option value of regional migration
This paper estimates a lifecycle model of consumption, housing choice, and migration in the presence of aggregate and regional shocks, using the Survey of Income and Program Participation (SIPP). The model delivers structural estimates of moving costs by ownership status, age, and family size that complement the previous literature.

Reduced fusion systems over p-groups with abelian subgroup of index p: II [PDF]
Let p be an odd prime, and let S be a p-group with a unique elementary abelian subgroup A of index p. We classify the simple fusion systems over all such groups S in which A is essential.

Earthquake‐Induced Chains of Geologic Hazards: Patterns, Mechanisms, and Impacts
Abstract Large earthquakes initiate chains of surface processes that last much longer than the brief moments of strong shaking. Most moderate‐ and large‐magnitude earthquakes trigger landslides, ranging from small failures in the soil cover to massive, devastating rock avalanches. Some landslides dam rivers and impound lakes, which can collapse days to
