Let $R$ be a local principal ideal ring of length two, for example, the ring $R=\Z/p^2\Z$ with $p$ prime. In this paper we develop a theory of normal forms for similarity classes in the matrix rings $M_n(R)$ by interpreting them in terms of…

In this note we introduce and characterize a class of finite groups for which the element orders satisfy a certain inequality. This is contained in some well-known classes of finite groups.
In this note, we give a necessary and sufficient condition for a matrix A in M to be finitely G-determined, where M is the ring of 2 x 2 matrices whose entries are formal power series over an infinite field, and G is a group acting on M by…
We study the collection of group structures that can be realized as a group of rational points on an elliptic curve over a finite field (such groups are well known to be of rank at most two). We also study various subsets of this collection…
First we survey generating function methods for obtaining useful probability estimates about random matrices in the finite classical groups. Then we describe a probabilistic picture of conjugacy classes which is coherent and beautiful.…
We study groups, exponential groups and ordered groups equipped with valuations. We investigate algebraic and topological features of such valued structures, and apply our findings in order to solve regular equations over groups using…

We investigate linearity of amalgams of subgroups of algebraic groups along intersections with algebraic subgroups. In the process, we establish linearity of certain "doubles" of linear groups, and obtain new examples of finitely generated…

We introduce and study the class of spherically ordered groups. The notions of spherically ordered groups and their spectra of spherical orderability are introduced. Values of these spectra are found for a series of natural groups.
Let B be a ring and $A=B[X,Y]/(aX^2+bXY+cY^2-1)$ where $a,b,c\in B$. We study the smoothness of A over B, and the regularity of B when B is a ring of algebraic integers.
Let A be a finitely generated associative algebra over an algebraically closed field. We characterize the finite dimensional modules over A whose orbit closures are regular varieties.
We classify gradings on matrix algebras by a finite abelian group. A grading is called good if all elementary matrices are homogeneous. For cyclic groups, all gradings on a matrix algebra over an algebraically closed field are good. We can…
We investigate the construction of circulant matrices derived from primitive roots over finite fields. Our approach reduces exponential sums to Jacobi sums, thereby establishing explicit connections between character theory and matrix…
We construct, for any finite commutative ring $R$, a family of representations of the general linear group $\mathrm{GL}_n(R)$ whose intertwining properties mirror those of the principal series for $\mathrm{GL}_n$ over a finite field.
Let $Q$ be the matrix $\displaystyle \begin{pmatrix} a & b \\ 1 & 0 \end{pmatrix}$ in $GL_2(\mathbb{F}_q)$ where $\mathbb{F}_q$ is a finite field, and let $G$ be the finite cyclic group generated by $Q$. We consider the action of $G$ on the…
In this paper, we develop general machinery for computing the classifying ring $L^A$ of one-dimensional formal $A$-modules, for various commutative rings $A$. We then apply the machinery to obtain calculations of $L^A$ for various number…
We present a new algorithm to decide finiteness of matrix groups defined over a field of positive characteristic. Together with previous work for groups in zero characteristic, this provides the first complete solution of the finiteness…
