We obtain a class of examples of non-rational adjoint classical groups of type $^2A_n$ and a group of type $^2D_3$ over the function field $F$ of a smooth geometrically integral curve over a $p$-adic field with $p \neq 2$. We also show that…

The following results are proved: The center of any finite index subgroup of an irreducible, infinite, non-affine Coxeter group is trivial; Any finite index subgroup of an irreducible, infinite, non-affine Coxeter group cannot be expressed…

The main result of this paper is the following theorem. Let q be a prime, A an elementary abelian group of order q^3. Suppose that A acts as a coprime group of automorphisms on a profinite group G in such a manner that C_G(a)' is periodic…

For a given number field $K$, we show that the ranks of nonsingular elliptic curves over $K$ are uniformly finitely bounded if and only if weak Mordell-Weil property holds in all(some) ultrpowers $^*K$ of $K$. Also we introduce Nonstandard…

The degree pattern of a finite group is the degree sequence of its prime graph in ascending order of vertices. We say that the problem of OD-characterization is solved for a finite group if we determine the number of pairwise nonisomorphic…

In the first part of this paper we prove that the mapping class subgroups generated by the $D$-th powers of Dehn twists (with $D\geq 2$) along a sparse collection of simple closed curves on an orientable surface are right angled Artin…

For any prime $p\ge 5$, we show that generic hypersurface $X_p\subset\mathbb{P}^p$ defined over $\mathbb{Q}$ admits a non-trivial rational dominant self-map of degree $>1$, defined over $\bar{\mathbb{Q}}$. A simple arithmetic application of…

We investigate the structure of an alternative finite dimensional $\Q$-algebra $\mathfrak{A}$ subject to the condition that for a $\Z$-order $\Gamma \subset \mathfrak{A}$, and thus for every $\Z$-order of $\mathfrak{A}$, the loop of units…

We prove that non-abelian free groups of finite rank at least 3 or of countable rank are not $\forall$-homogeneous. We answer three open questions from Kharlampovich, Myasnikov, and Sklinos regarding whether free groups, finitely generated…

Let G be an infinite group and let h and g be elements. We say that h is a root of g if some integer power of h is equal to g. We define K(G) to be the subgroup of all elements of G for which the number of elements which are not roots is of…

An element w in the free group on r letters defines a map f from G^r to G for each group G. In this note, we show that whenever w is non-trivial and G is a semisimple algebraic group, f is dominant. When G is a finite simple group, the…

We show that when G is a finite group which contains an elementary Abelian subgroup of order p^2 and k is an algebraically closed field of characteristic p, then the study of simple endotrivial kG-modules which are not monomial may be…

Let $\text{U}(n,\mathbb{F}_{q^2})$ denote the subgroup of unitary matrices of the general linear group $\text{GL}(n,\mathbb{F}_{q^2})$ which fixes a Hermitian form and $M\geq 2$ an integer. This is a companion paper to the previous works…

By recognizing them as fundamental groups of developable complexes of groups we prove that mapping class groups of compact orientable surfaces have finite asymptotic dimension.

The classification of maximal function fields over a finite field is a difficult open problem, and even determining isomorphism classes among known function fields is challenging in general. We study a particular family of maximal function…

Let $T$ be a finite non-abelian simple group. Giudici, Morgan and Praeger have shown that the order of $T$ is bounded above by a function depending on the maximum number of $\mathrm{Aut}(T)$-classes of elements of $T$ of prime-power order.…

Let $X$ be an algebraic surface with $\mathcal{L}$ an ample line bundle on $X$. Let $\Gamma(X, \mathcal{L})$ be the \emph{geometric monodromy} group associated to family of nonsingular curves in $X$ that are zero loci of sections of…

The purpose of this note is to provide exposition for a proof of the statement in the title. This idea, that arbitrary cohomology classes (of high enough degree) of a finite group $G$ can be trivialized in a finite group extension, has been…

We classify finite-dimensional complex Hopf algebras $A$ which are pointed, that is, all of whose irreducible comodules are one-dimensional, and whose group of group-like elements $G(A)$ is abelian such that all prime divisors of the order…

Let $G$ be a finite group and assume $p$ is a prime dividing the order of $G$. Suppose for any such $p$, that every two abelian $p$-subgroups of $G$ of equal order are conjugate. The structure of such a group $G$ has been settled in this…
