We give a short and self-contained proof of a theorem of Ledermann and Neumann stating that there are only finitely many finite groups with a given number of automorphisms. We also discuss the history of related conjectures.
Let $G$ be a real reductive Lie group, $L$ a compact subgroup, and $\pi$ an irreducible admissible representation of $G$. In this article we prove a necessary and sufficient condition for the finiteness of the multiplicities of $L$-types…
We study the representations of the commutator subgroup K_{n} of the braid group B_{n} into a finite group . This is done through a symbolic dynamical system. Some experimental results enable us to compute the number of subgroups of K_{n}…
We obtain a complete classification of the continuous unitary representations of oligomorphic permutation groups (those include the infinite permutation group $S_\infty$, the automorphism group of the countable dense linear order, the…
We prove Schlichting's theorem for approximate subgroups: if $\mathcal{X}$ is a uniform family of commensurable approximate subgroups in some ambient group, then there exists an invariant approximate subgroup commensurable with…
In this note we prove that every finitely presented subgroup of a systolic group is itself systolic.
We prove that a finitely generated Lie algebra $L$ such that (i) every commutator in generators is ad-nilpotent, and (ii) $ L$ satisfies a polynomial identity, is nilpotent. As a corollary we get that a finitely generated residually-$p$…
Let $F$ be a finite extension of $\mathbb{Q}_p$. We prove that the category of finitely presented smooth $Z$-finite representations of $GL_2(F)$ over a finite extension of $\mathbb{F}_p$ is an abelian subcategory of the category of all…
In this note we look at presentations of subgroups of finitely presented groups with infinite cyclic quotients. We prove that if $H$ is a finitely generated normal subgroup of a finitely presented group $G$ with $G/H$ cyclic, then $H$ has…
We prove that an abstract (possibly infinite dimensional) complex irreducible representation of a discrete supersolvable group is monomial if and only if it has finite weight. We also prove a general result that implies converse of Schur's…
In 1963, Greenberg proved that every finite group appears as the monodromy group of some morphism of Riemann surfaces. In this paper, we give two constructive proofs of Greenberg's result. First, we utilize free groups, which given with the…
We give a criterion for a finitely generated odd-angled Coxeter group to have a proper finite index subgroup generated by reflections. The answer is given in terms of the least prime divisors of the exponents of the Coxeter relations.
We note a parallel between some ideas of stable model theory and certain topics in finite combinatorics related to the sum-product phenomenon. For a simple linear group G, we show that a finite subset X with |X X \^{-1} X |/ |X| bounded is…
It is classical that given any Seifert structure on N, Reidemeister-Schreier's algorithm produces a presentation of all index 2 subgroups of the fundamental group of N, described as the fundamental group of some Seifert manifolds. The new…
Given a universal elementary Chevalley-Demazure group $E_\Phi^{sc}(R)$ for which its (standard) parabolic subgroups are finitely generated, we consider the problem of classifying which parabolics $P(R) \subset E_\Phi^{sc}(R)$ are finitely…
In this paper, using some properties of fundamental groups and covering spaces of connected polyhedra and CW-complexes, we present topological proof for some famous theorems about finitely presented groups.
A simple procedure to obtain complete, closed expressions for Lie algebra invariants is presented. The invariants are ultimately polynomials in the group parameters. The construction of finite group elements require the use of projectors,…
Let $A$ and $G$ be finite groups such that $A$ acts coprimely on $G$ by automorphisms, we first prove some results on the solvability of finite groups in which some maximal $A$-invariant subgroups have indices a prime or the square of a…
In various classes of infinite groups, we identify groups that are presentable by products, i.e. groups having finite index subgroups which are quotients of products of two commuting infinite subgroups. The classes we discuss here include…
Let $\mathcal G$ denote the space of finitely generated marked groups. For any finitely generated group $G$, we construct a continuous, injective map $f$ from the space of subgroups $Sub(G)$ to $\mathcal G$ that sends conjugate subgroups to…
