In this paper, we compute the essential $p$-dimension of the split finite quasi-simple groups of classical Lie type at the defining prime, specifically the quasi-simple groups arising from the general linear and special linear groups, the…

We consider indecomposable representations of the Klein four group over a field of characteristic $2$ and of a cyclic group of order $pm$ with $p,m$ coprime over a field of characteristic $p$. For each representation we explicitly describe…

Let $A$ be an additive basis. We call ``essential subset'' of $A$ any finite subset $P$ of $A$ such that $A \setminus P$ is not an additive basis and that $P$ is minimal (for the inclusion order) to have this property. A recent theorem due…

The $p$-set, which is in a simple analytic form, is well distributed in unit cubes. The well-known Weil's exponential sum theorem presents an upper bound of the exponential sum over the $p$-set. Based on the result, one shows that the…

Let $R$ be a finite unital commutative ring. We introduce a new class of finite groups, which we call hereditary groups over $R$. Our main result states that if $G$ is a hereditary group over $R$ then a unital algebra isomorphism between…

Orbit-finite models of computation generalise the standard models of computation, to allow computation over infinite objects that are finite up to symmetries on atoms, denoted by $\mathbb{A}$. Set theory with atoms is used to reason about…

A real representation $\pi$ of a finite group may be regarded as a homomorphism to an orthogonal group $\Or(V)$. For symmetric groups $S_n$, alternating groups $A_n$, and products $S_n \times S_{n'}$ of symmetric groups, we give criteria…

Alternate bases are a numeration system that generalizes the R\'enyi numeration system. It is common in this context to construct examples or counter-examples by specifying the expansions of $1$ in the desired system. While it is easy to…

We generalize the definition of Yang-Baxter basis of type $A$ Hecke algebra introduced by A.Lascoux, B.Leclerc and J.Y.Thibon (Letters in Math. Phys., 40 (1997), 75--90) to all the Lie types and prove their duality. As an application we…

Let $p$ be a an odd prime and let $G$ be a finite $p$-group with cyclic commutator subgroup $G'$. We prove that the exponent and the abelianization of the centralizer of $G'$ in $G$ are determined by the group algebra of $G$ over any field…

An important problem from invariant theory is to describe the subspace of a tensor power of a representation invariant under the action of the group. According to Weyl's classic, the first main (later: 'fundamental') theorem of invariant…

We obtain vanishing ranges for the mod $p$ cohomology of alternating subgroups of finite $p$-free Coxeter groups. Here a Coxeter group $W$ is $p$-free if the order of the product $st$ is prime to $p$ for every pair of Coxeter generators…

We give the canonical normal form for the elements of the finite or infinite alternating groups using local stationary presentation of these groups.

Let $\mathcal F$ be a saturated fusion system on a finite $p$-group $S$, and let $P$ be a strongly $\mathcal F$-closed subgroup of $S$. We define the concept ``$\mathcal F$-essential subgroups with respect to $P$" which are some proper…

We give a lower bound for the exponent of certain elements in the integral cohomology of the total spaces of principal BC-bundles for C a finite cyclic group. As applications we give a proof of the theorem of A. Adem and H.-W. Henn that a…

Here we consider two algebras, a free unital associative complex algebra (denoted by ${\mathcal{B}}$) equiped with a multiparametric \textbf{\emph{q}}-differential structure and a twisted group algebra (denoted by ${\mathcal{A}(S_{n})}$),…

A base of a permutation group (X,G) is a subset B of X such that its pointwise stabilizer is the trivial group. A list (x1,x2, ... ,xk) of elements of X is irredundant if each element is not in the pointwise stabilizer of its predecessors.…

We investigate multiplicative groups consisting entirely of singular alternating sign matrices (ASMs), and present several constructions of such groups. It is shown that every finite group is isomorphic to a group of singular ASMs, with a…

K\"ulshammer, Olsson, and Robinson developed an l-analogue of modular representation theory of symmetric groups where l is not necessarily a prime. They gave a conjectural combinatorial description for invariant factors of the Cartan matrix…

Using aritmethic conditions on affine semigroups we prove that for a simplicial toric variety of codimension 2 the property of being a set-theoretic complete intersection on binomials in characteristic $p$ holds either for all primes $p$,…
