A pseudo-hyperoval of a projective space $\PG(3n-1,q)$, $q$ even, is a set of $q^n+2$ subspaces of dimension $n-1$ such that any three span the whole space. We prove that a pseudo-hyperoval with an irreducible transitive stabiliser is…

In this paper we discuss a method for bounding the size of the stabiliser of a vertex in a $G$-vertex-transitive graph $\Gamma$. In the main result the group $G$ is quasiprimitive or biquasiprimitive on the vertices of $\Gamma$, and we…

The non-solvable graph of a finite group G is a simple graph whose vertices are the elements of G and there is an edge between x and y if and only if the subgroup generated by x and y is not solvable. The isolated vertices in the…

Suppose that a group $G$ acts transitively on the points of $\mathcal{P}$, a finite non-Desarguesian projective plane. We prove that if $G$ is insoluble then $G/O(G)$ is isomorphic to $SL_2(5)$ or $SL_2(5).2$.

Let $G$ be a split semi-simple group over a global function field $K$. Given a cuspidal automorphic representation $\Pi$ of $G$ satisfying a technical hypothesis, we prove that for almost all primes $\ell$, there is a cyclic base change…

Given a finitely generated group $G$, we are interested in common geometric properties of all graphs of faithful actions of $G$. In this article we focus on their growth. We say that a group $G$ has a Schreier growth gap $f(n)$ if every…

Let G be a compact group. Let (X,G) be a standard Borel G-measure space. We show that the group action on (X, G) is transitive if and only if it is ergodic. Using this result, we show that every irreducible covariant representation of a…

Given a representation of a finite group $G$ over some commutative base ring $\mathbf{k}$, the cofixed space is the largest quotient of the representation on which the group acts trivially. If $G$ acts by $\mathbf{k}$-algebra automorphisms,…

We study closed subgroups $G$ of the automorphism group of a locally finite tree $T$ acting doubly transitively on the boundary. We show that if the stabiliser of some end is metabelian, then there is a local field $k$ such that…

Given a permutation group $G \le \mathrm{Sym}(\Omega)$, a subset $B$ of $\Omega$ is said to be a base if its pointwise stabiliser in $G$ is trivial, and the base size $b(G)$ is the minimum size of a base. In the notable case $b(G) = 2$,…

The standard stabilizer formalism provides a setting to show that quantum computation restricted to operations within the Clifford group are classically efficiently simulable: this is the content of the well-known Gottesman-Knill theorem.…

We study the natural action of $S_n$ on the set of $k$-subsets of the set $\{1,\dots, n\}$ when $1\leq k \leq \frac{n}{2}$. For this action we calculate the maximum size of a minimal base, the height and the maximum length of an irredundant…

We describe a procedure to compute the rational nonstable K-groups of A$\mathbb{T}$-algebras. As an application, we show that an A$\mathbb{T}$-algebra is K-stable if and only if it has slow dimension growth.

We classify the automorphism group of minimal surfaces of general type with $K_S^2 = 1$ and $\rho_g = 2$. Furthermore, we show that the order of the automorphism group is bounded above by 200 and can only have prime factors $p \leq 31$ with…

In this paper we study the extension of structure group of principal bundles with a reductive algebraic group as structure group on smooth projective varieties defined over algebraically closed field of positive characteristic. Our main…

Let $G$ be a finite group, and let $N(G)$ be the set of sizes of its conjugacy classes. We show that if a finite group $G$ has trivial center and $N(G)$ equals to $N(Alt_n)$ or $N(Sym_n)$ for $n\geq 23$, then $G$ has a composition factor…

Let $G$ be a finite group. For $x \in G$, we define the solvabilizer of $x$ in $G$, denoted $sol_G(x)$, to be the set $\{g \in G \mid \langle g,x \rangle$ is solvable$\}$. A group $G$ is an S-group if $sol_G(x)$ is a subgroup of $G$ for…

Periodic and quasi-periodic orbits of the $n$-body problem are critical points of the action functional constrained to the Sobolev space of symmetric loops. Variational methods yield collisionless orbits provided the group of symmetries…

Let $G$ be a finite group, and let $V$ be a completely reducible faithful $G$-module. It has been known for a long time that if $G$ is abelian, then $G$ has a regular orbit on $V$. In this paper we show that $G$ has an orbit of size at…
