We classify those 2-groups G which factorise as a product of two disjoint cyclic subgroups A and B, transposed by an automorphism of order 2. The case where G is metacyclic having been dealt with elsewhere, we show that for each e>2 there…

We classify Nichols algebras of irreducible Yetter-Drinfeld modules over nonabelian groups satisfying an inequality for the dimension of the homogeneous subspace of degree two. All such Nichols algebras are finite-dimensional, and all known…

We classify all finite 2-groups that have a cyclic or dihedral maximal subgroup and determine their automorphism groups. Based on this result, we classify all pairs $ (G,\mathcal{M}) $, such that $ G $ is a finite 2-group and $ \mathcal{M}…

In the first half of this paper, we outline the construction of a new class of abelian pro-$p$ groups, which covers all countably-based pro-$p$ groups. In the second half, we study them, and classify them up to topological isomorphism and…

If the face\mbox{-}cycles at all the vertices in a map are of the same type, then the map is said to be a semi-equivelar map. Automorphism (symmetry) of a map can be thought of as a permutation of the vertices which preserves the…

We show that a semisimple Hopf algebra A is group theoretical if and only if its Drinfeld double is a twisting of the Dijkgraaf-Pasquier-Roche quasi-Hopf algebra D^{omega}(Sigma), for some finite group Sigma and some 3-cocycle omega on…

We find necessary and sufficient conditions on an (inverse) semigroup $X$ under which its semigroups of maximal linked systems $\lambda(X)$, filters $\phi(X)$, linked upfamilies $N_2(X)$, and upfamilies $\upsilon(X)$ are inverse.

Counting homomorphisms between cyclic groups is a common exercise in a first course in abstract algebra. A similar problem, accessible at the same level, is to count the number of group homomorphisms from a dihedral group of order $2m$ into…

We introduce two families of diagrammatic monoidal supercategories. The first family, depending on an associative superalgebra, generalizes the oriented Brauer category. The second, depending on an involutive superalgebra, generalizes the…

Let $\Gamma=\mathrm{Cay}(G,S)$ be a Cayley digraph on a group $G$ and let $A=\mathrm{Aut}(\Gamma)$. The Cayley index of $\Gamma$ is $|A:G|$. It has previously been shown that, if $p$ is a prime, $G$ is a cyclic $p$-group and $A$ contains a…

For every odd prime $p$ and every integer $n\geq 12$ there is a Heisenberg group of order $p^{5n/4+O(1)}$ that has $p^{n^2/24+O(n)}$ pairwise nonisomorphic quotients of order $p^{n}$. Yet, these quotients are virtually indistinguishable.…

This paper is a continuation of the paper "Numerical Semigroups: Ap\'ery Sets and Hilbert Series". We consider the general numerical AA-semigroup, i.e., semigroups consisting of all non-negative integer linear combinations of relatively…

A finite group $G$ is a called a DCI-group if any two isomorphic Cayley digraphs of $G$ are also isomorphic via an automorphism of $G$. If $G$ is a non-abelian generalised dihedral DCI-group, then Dobson, Muzychuk, and Spiga proved that $G$…

Let G be a group. The intersection graph G(G) of G is an undirected graph without loops and multiple edges defined as follows: the vertex set is the set of all proper nontrivial subgroups of G; and there is an edge between two distinct…

Recently, several works by a number of authors have provided characterizations of integral undirected Cayley graphs over generalized dihedral groups and generalized dicyclic groups. We generalize and unify these results in two different…

In this paper we obtain the Wedderburn-Artin decomposition of a semisimple group algebra associated to a direct product of finite groups. We also provide formulae for the number of all possible group codes, and their dimensions, that can be…

This article is devoted to the investigation of semidirect products of groups of loops and groups of diffeomorphisms of finite and infinte dimensional real, complex and quaternion manifolds. Necessary statements about quaternion manifolds…

We show that every finite-dimensional pointed Hopf algebra over a finite simple Chevalley group, different from $PSL_2(q)$ with q= 3 mod 4 (and from $PSL_3(2)\simeq PSL_2(7)$), is isomorphic to the corresponding group algebra. To do this,…

Using Dunkl operators, we introduce a continuous family of canonical invariants of finite reflection groups. We verify that the elementary canonical invariants of the symmetric group are deformations of the elementary symmetric polynomials.…

We investigate representations of mapping class groups of surfaces that arise from the untwisted Drinfeld double of a finite group G, focusing on surfaces without marked points or with one marked point. We obtain concrete descriptions of…
