✦ Synopsis

We show that the isometry dimension of a finite group G is equal to the dimension of a minimal-dimensional faithful real representation of G. Using this result, we answer several questions of Albertson and Boutin [J. Algebra 225 (2000), 947-955 .

## Abstract We consider low‐dimensional groups and group‐actions that are definable in a supersimple theory of finite rank. We show that any rank 1 unimodular group is (finite‐by‐Abelian)‐by‐finite, and that any 2‐dimensional asymptotic group is soluble‐by‐finite. We obtain a field‐interpretation t

The aim of this paper is to show that the automorphism and isometry groups of the suspension of B(H), H being a separable infinite-dimensional Hilbert space, are algebraically reflexive. This means that every local automorphism, respectively, every local surjective isometry, of C 0 (R) B(H) is an au

We show that certain properties of groups of automorphisms can be read off from the actions they induce on the finite characteristic quotients of their underlying group G. In particular, we obtain criteria for groups of automorphisms of a Ž . residually finite and soluble minimax -by-finite group G
