What finite simple groups appear as factors of surface fundamental groups?
Let $\Sigma_g$ be the a closed orientable surface of genus $g$.
My somewhat naive question: what is known about simple finite factors of $\pi_1(\Sigma_g)?$ In particular, I know that the composition …

Is there a finitely presented group with infinite homology over $\mathbb{Q}$?
Suppose $G$ is a discrete group given by finitely many generators with finitely many relations. Can the homology groups $H_i(G, \mathbb{Q})$, or equivalently $H_i(BG, \mathbb{Q})$ (topological homolog …

Let me rewrite a comment I made that has a typo, since it's too late to edit it. The property fails for any compact connected noncommutative Lie group. Note that if $G$ is a compact group then it has …

Computationally intractable orbit of a monoid action on a finite set
Edit In my previous answer I took $M$ to be the set of elements with image $\{2,\dots, n\}$ together with a random involution. In fact, that answer does not produce a monoid, since the square of an in …
