For a finite connected simple graph, the Terwilliger algebra is a matrix algebra generated by the adjacency matrix and idempotents corresponding to the distance partition with respect to a fixed vertex. We will consider algebras defined by…

An n-dimensional Bieberbach group is the fundamental group of a closed flat $n$-dimensional manifold. K. Dekimpe and P. Penninckx conjectured that an n-dimensional Bieberbach group can be generated by n elements. In this paper, we show that…

The cyclic graph $\Gamma(S)$ of a semigroup $S$ is the simple graph whose vertex set is $S$ and two vertices $x, y$ are adjacent if the subsemigroup generated by $x$ and $y$ is monogenic. In this paper, we classify the semigroup $S$ such…

Let $\mathscr{C}$ be a classical group defined over a finite field. We present comprehensive theoretical solutions to the following closely related problems: 1) List a representative for each conjugacy class of $\mathscr{C}$. 2) Given $x…

We consider symmetric d-linear forms of dimension n over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic 0. The "center" of a form is the analogous of the space of symmetric matrices of a bilinear form. For d>2 the center is a commutative…

Symmetries of the finite Heisenberg group represent an important tool for the study of deeper structure of finite-dimensional quantum mechanics. As is well known, these symmetries are properly expressed in terms of certain normalizer. This…

We construct a 2-generated group $\Gamma $ such that its Cayley graph possesses finite connected subsets with arbitrarily big finite Heesch number.

Let $G$ be 2-generated group. The generating graph $\Gamma(G)$ of $G$ is the graph whose vertices are the elements of $G$ and where two vertices $g$ and $h$ are adjacent if $G = \langle g, h \rangle.$ This definition can be extended to a…

In a previous paper we investigated the centraliser dimension of groups. In the current paper we study properties of centraliser dimension for the class of free partially commutative groups and, as a corollary, we obtain an efficient…

In this article we describe the centres of all Dyer groups. We also give a complete classification of when a Dyer group $D(\Gamma)$ is hyperbolic or acylindricality hyperbolic, with conditions that can easily be read on the Dyer graph…

Let $\Delta$ be a building of type $\widetilde A_2$ and order $q$, with maximal boundary $\Omega$. Let $\Gamma$ be a group of type preserving automorphisms of $\Delta$ which acts regularly on the chambers of $\Delta$. Then the crossed…

Given a unital $C(X)$-algebra $A$ discrete group $\Gamma$ and an action $\alpha: \Gamma\to \text{aut}(A)$ which leaves $C(X)$ invariant and such that $C(X)\rtimes_{\alpha,r} \Gamma$ is simple, and a $2$-cocycle $\omega$, we obtain a…

In this paper we prove that for each dimension $n$ there are only finitely many isomorphism classes of pairs of groups $(\Gamma,\mathrm{N})$ such that $\Gamma$ is an $n$-dimensional crystallographic group and $\mathrm{N}$ is a normal…

We show that the Bergman metric of the ball quotients $\mathbb{B}^2/\Gamma$, where $\Gamma$ is a finite and fixed point free group, is K\"ahler-Einstein if and only if $\Gamma$ is trivial. As a consequence, we characterize the unit ball…

We characterize when a generalized Baumslag-Solitar group is linear, and extend the result to the fundamental groups of a graph of groups with infinite virtually cyclic vertex and edge groups.

Let $\Gamma$ be a torsion free cocompact lattice in $\aut(\cl T_1)\times\aut(\cl T_2)$, where $\cl T_1$, $\cl T_2$ are trees whose vertices all have degree at least three. The group $H_2(\Gamma, \bb Z)$ is determined explicitly in terms of…

Let $W$ be an arbitrary Coxeter group, possibly of infinite rank. We describe a decomposition of the centralizer $Z_W(W_I)$ of an arbitrary parabolic subgroup $W_I$ into the center of $W_I$, a Coxeter group and a subgroup defined by a…

In this paper, we consider covers of finite groups by centralizers of elements. We show that the set of centralizers that are maximal under the partial ordering form a cover of the group. We also show that the set of centralizers that are…

We have classified, upto isoclinism, certain groups with a given central factor. As an application, we classify, upto isoclinism, groups having at the most nine element centralizers. Among other results of independent interest, we have…
