Let $G$ be a central product of two groups $H$ and $K$. We study second cohomology group of $G$, having coefficients in a divisible abelian group $D$ with trivial $G$-action, in terms of the second cohomology groups of certain quotients of…

We define the Schur multipliers of a separable von Neumann algebra M with Cartan masa A, generalising the classical Schur multipliers of $B(\ell^2)$. We characterise these as the normal A-bimodule maps on M. If M contains a direct summand…

Let $p$ be an odd prime. We describe a method to compute the Schur multiplier of finite $p$-groups $G$ of nilpotency class $2$ such that $G/[G,G]$ is isomorphic to direct product of copies of $\mathbb{Z}_{p^s}$ for $s \in \mathbb{N}$,…

We define a map from second quandle homology to the Schur multiplier and examine its properties. Furthermore, we express the second homology of Alexander quandles in terms of exterior algebras. Additionally, we present a self-contained…

Schur's Theorem and its generalisation, Baer's Theorem, are distinguished results in group theory, connecting the upper central quotients with the lower central series. The aim of this paper is to generalise these results in two different…

In this paper we compare various classes of Schur multipliers: classical matrix Schur multipliers, discrete Schur multipliers, Schur multipliers with respect to measures and Schur multipliers with respect to spectral measures. The main…

We consider the Schur multipliers of finite dimensional nilpotent Lie algebras. If the algebra has dimension greater than one, then the Schur multiplier is non-zero. We give a direct proof of an upper bound for the dimension of the Schur…

Let $G$ be a finite $p$-group of order $p^{n}$ with $|M(G)|=p^{\frac{n(n-1)}{2}-t},$ where $M(G)$ is the Schur multiplier of $G$. Ya.G. Berkovich, X. Zhou, and G. Ellis have determined the structure of $G$ when $t=0,1,2,3$. In this paper,…

In this paper, we use the theory of simplicial groups to develop the Schur multiplier of a pair of groups $(G,N)$ to the Baer invariant of it, $\mathcal{V}M(G,N)$, with respect to an arbitrary variety $\mathcal{V}$. Moreover, we present…

A Schur multiplier is a linear map on matrices which acts on its entries by multiplication with some function, called the symbol. We consider idempotent Schur multipliers, whose symbols are indicator functions of smooth Euclidean domains.…

In this paper, using the topological interpretation of the Baer invariant of a group $G$, $\mathcal{V}M(G)$, with respect to an arbitrary variety $\mathcal{V}$, we extend a result of Burns and Ellis (Math. Z. 226 (1997) 405-428) on the…

We obtain bounds for the size of the Schur multiplier of finite $p$-groups and finite groups, which improve all existing bounds. Moreover, we obtain bounds for the size of the second cohomology group $H^2(G,\mathbb{Z}/p\mathbb{Z})$ of a…

In this article, we investigate the Schur multiplier of the special linear group $\mathrm{SL}_2(A)$ over finite commutative local rings $A$. We prove that the Schur multiplier of these groups is isomorphic to the $K$-group $K_2(A)$ whenever…

Schur multipliers are basic linear maps on matrix algebras. Their close albeit still intriguing connection with Fourier multipliers establishes a powerful bridge between harmonic analysis and operator algebras. In this paper, we survey…

After deriving inequalities on coefficients arising in the expansion of a Schur $P$-function in terms of Schur functions we give criteria for when such expansions are multiplicity free. From here we study the multiplicity of an irreducible…

An explicit formula for the Schur multiplier of the group of unitriangular matrices over products of cyclic rings $\ZZ/m\ZZ$ and $\ZZ$ is derived. We use it to provide presentations of the corresponding covering groups and touch upon the…

We give necessary and sufficient conditions for a Schur map to be a homomorphism, with some generalizations to the infinite-dimensional case. In the finite-dimensional case, we find that a Schur multiplier distributes over matrix…

For a $C^*$-algebra $A$ and a set $X$ we give a Stinespring-type characterisation of the completely positive Schur $A$-multipliers on $K(\ell^2(X))\otimes A$. We then relate them to completely positive Herz-Schur multipliers on…
