For any finitely generated abelian group $Q$, we reduce the problem of classification of $Q$-graded simple Lie algebras over an algebraically closed field of "good" characteristic to the problem of classification of gradings on simple Lie…

The number of maximal abelian subgroups of a finite p-group is shown to be congruent to 1 modulo p.

When the standard representation of a crystallographic Coxeter group is reduced modulo an odd prime p, one obtains a finite group G^p acting on some orthogonal space over Z_p . If the Coxeter group has a string diagram, then G^p will often…

Given a number field $L$, we define the degree of an algebraic number $v \in L$ with respect to a choice of a primitive element of $L$. We propose the question of computing the minimal degrees of algebraic numbers in $L$, and examine these…

Let $G$ be a discrete group generated by reflections in hyperbolic or Euclidean space, and $H\subset G$ be a finite index subgroup generated by reflections. Suppose that the fundamental chamber of $G$ is a finite volume polytope with $k$…

Let $P$ be a simplex in $S^n$ and $G_P$ be a group generated by the reflections with respect to the facets of $P$. We are interested in the case when the group $G_P$ is discrete. In this case we say that $G$ generates the discrete…

We compute the generic degrees of the Ariki--Koike algebras by first constructing a basis of matrix units in the semisimple case. As a consequence, we also obtain an explicit isomorphism from any semisimple Ariki--Koike algebra to the group…

A standard tool for classifying the complexity of equivalence relations on $\omega$ is provided by computable reducibility. This reducibility gives rise to a rich degree structure. The paper studies equivalence relations, which induce…

Let G be a finite group of order n and V an irreducible representation over the complex numbers of dimension d. For some nonnegative number e, we have n=d(d+e). If e is small, then the character of V has unusually large degree. We fix e and…

Two rational functions $f,g\in\Bbb F_q(X)$ are said to be {\em equivalent} if there exist $\phi,\psi\in\Bbb F_q(X)$ of degree one such that $g=\phi\circ f\circ\psi$. We give an explicit formula for the number of equivalence classes of…

We survey the existing parts of a classification of finite groups generated by orthogonal transformations in a finite-dimensional Euclidean space whose fixed point subspace has codimension one or two and extend it to a complete…

Let $k$ be a perfect field such that for every $n$ there are only finitely many field extensions, up to isomorphism, of $k$ of degree $n$. If $G$ is a reductive algebraic group defined over $k$, whose characteristic is very good for $G$,…

We study dp-minimal infinite profinite groups that are equipped with a uniformly definable fundamental system of open subgroups. We show that these groups have an open subgroup $A$ such that either $A$ is a direct product of countably many…

In a finite real reflection group, the reflection length of each element is equal to the codimension of its fixed space, and the two coincident functions determine a partial order structure called the absolute order. In complex reflection…

We give an explicit upper bound for the algebraic degree and an explicit lower bound for the absolute value of the minimum of a polynomial function on a compact connected component of a basic closed semialgebraic set when this minimum is…

In this paper, we introduce the relative $n$-tensor nilpotent degree of a finite group $G$ with respect to a subgroup $H$ of $G$. The aim of this paper is to investigate this concept and give some results on this topic.

Every finite group whose order is divisible by a prime $p$ has at least $2 \sqrt{p-1}$ conjugacy classes.

We express the set of representations from a cyclic $p$-group to a connected $p$-compact group in terms of the associated reflection group and compute its cardinality for each exotic $p$-compact group.

This is a survey article on the theory of finite complex reflection groups. No proofs are given but numerous references are included.

For an irreducible complex character $\chi$ of a finite group $G$, the codegree of $\chi$ is defined by $|G:\ker(\chi)|/\chi(1)$, where $\ker(\chi)$ is the kernel of $\chi$. Given a prime $p$, we provide a classification of finite groups in…
