Given a partial action $\alpha$ of a connected groupoid $\mathcal{G}$ on an associative ring $A$ we investigate under what conditions the partial skew groupoid ring $A\star_{\alpha}\mathcal{G}$ can be realized as a partial skew group ring.…

In 1998, Liebeck and Seitz introduced a constant $t(G)$, dependent on the root system of a reductive algebraic group $G$ and proved that if $x$ is a semisimple element of order greater than $t(G)$ in $G$ then there exists an infinite…

The main result of this paper (Theorem B) asserts that under natural conditions, any weakly-split Tits system in G(k), G a reductive or quasi-reductive group over an arbitrary field k, is the standard one.

A group G is almost cyclic if there is an element x in G, such that for all g in G, there is an element y in G and an integer n with ygy^{-1} = x^n (that is, every element is conjugate to some power of x). W. Ziller asked whether there are…

An element $g$ in a group $G$ is called \emph{reciprocal} if there exists $h \in G$ such that $g^{-1}=hgh^{-1}$. The reciprocal elements are also known as `real elements' or `reversible elements' in the literature. We classify the…

Let $G$ be a linear algebraic group over a field $k$ of characteristic 0. We show that any two connected semisimple $k$-subgroups of $G$ that are conjugate over an algebraic closure of $k$ are actually conjugate over a finite field…

Let $H$ be a numerical semigroup minimally generated by an almost arithmetic sequence. We give a description of a possible row-factorization $(\RF)$ matrix for each pseudo-Frobenius element of $H.$ Further, when $H$ is symmetric and has…

Let $M$ be a cancellative and commutative monoid. A non-invertible element of $M$ is called an atom (or irreducible element) if it cannot be factored into two non-invertible elements, while an atom $a$ of $M$ is called strong if $a^n$ has a…

A quadratic form f is said to have semigroup property if its values at points of the integer lattice form a semigroup under multiplication. A problem of V. Arnold is to describe all binary integer quadratic forms with semigroup property. If…

We use real algebraic geometry to construct an affine $\Lambda$-building $B$ associated to the $\mathbb{F}$-points of a semisimple algebraic group, where $\mathbb{F}$ is a valued real closed field. We characterize the spherical building at…

We determine the structure of the semisimple group algebra of certain groups over the rationals and over those finite fields where the Wedderburn decompositions have the least number of simple components. We apply our work to obtain similar…

'A semigroup is completely regular if and only if it is a union of groups'- an analogue of this structure theorem of completely regular semigroup has been obtained in the setting of seminearrings in [[16], Mukherjee (Pal) et al., Semigroup…

A semigroup $S$ is called an equational domain if any finite union of algebraic sets over $S$ is algebraic. For a finite simple semigroup we find necessary and sufficient conditions to be an equational domain. Moreover, we study semigroups…

Motivated by the beautiful work of M. A. Rieffel (1965) and of M. E. Walter (1974), we obtain characterisations of the Fourier algebra $A(G)$ of a locally compact group $G$ in terms of the class of $F$-algebras (i.e. a Banach algebra $A$…

Let G be a locally compact Hausdorff group in which every element is of finite order, and let P(G) denote the class of all regular probability measures on G. In this note, it is observed that a characterization of algebraically regular…

In this article, we show that a group $G$ is the union of two proper subsemigroups if and only if $G$ has a nontrivial left-orderable quotient. Furthermore, if $G$ is the union of two proper semigroups, then there exists a minimum normal…

Let $RG$ denote the group ring of the torsion group $G$ over a commutative ring $R$ with identity. In this paper we present proofs of some statements that appear without to be proved in the literature. We establish the valid implications…

Let T be a complete local ring and C a finite set of incomparable prime ideals of T. We find necessary and sufficient conditions for T to be the completion of an integral domain whose generic formal fiber is semilocal with maximal ideals…

Let $K/\mathbb Q$ be a finite Galois extension and let $\chi_1,\ldots,\chi_r$ be the irreducible characters of the Galois group $G:=Gal(K/\mathbb Q)$. Let $f_1:=L(s,\chi_1),\ldots,f_r:=L(s,\chi_r)$ be their associated Artin L-functions. For…

Let $G$ be a finite simple group of Lie type and let $P$ be a Sylow $2$-subgroup of $G$. In this paper, we prove that for any nontrivial element $x \in G$, there exists $g \in G$ such that $G = \langle P, x^g \rangle$. By combining this…
