The genus spectrum of a finite group $G$ is the set of all $g\geq 2$ such that $G$ acts faithfully and orientation-preserving on a closed compact orientable surface of genus $g$. This article is an overview of some results relating the…

Let H be a pseudovariety of groups and DRH be the pseudovariety containing all finite semigroups whose regular R-classes belong to H. We study the relationship between reducibility of H and of DRH with respect to several particular classes…

Let $V,W$ be representations of a cyclic group $G$ of prime order $p$ over a field $k$ of characteristic $p$. The module of covariants $k[V,W]^G$ is the set of $G$-equivariant polynomial maps $V \rightarrow W$, and is a module over…

We introduce a concept of the commuting probability of a skew left brace analogous to group theory. We establish upper and lower bounds for the commuting probability and prove that, for finite non-trivial skew left braces, it is always at…

The probability that the commutator of two group elements is equal to a given element has been introduced in literature few years ago. Several authors have investigated this notion with methods of the representation theory and with…

We find a lower bound on the proportion of derangements in a finite transitive group that depends on the minimal nontrivial subdegree. As a consequence, we prove that, if $\Gamma$ is a $G$-vertex-transitive digraph of valency $d\ge 1$, then…

For a finite group G, we study the higher commuting probabilities, namely the probabilities that r randomly chosen elements of G commute pairwise, together with the corresponding numbers of simultaneous conjugacy classes of commuting…

Given a graphical degree sequence ${\bf d}=(d_1,\ldots, d_n)$, let $G(n, {\bf d})$ denote a uniformly random graph on vertex set $[n]$ where vertex $ i$ has degree $d_i$ for every $1\le i\le n$. We give upper and lower bounds on the joint…

The following problem is considered: if $H$ is a semiregular abelian subgroup of a transitive permutation group $G$ acting on a finite set $X$, find conditions for (non) existence of $G$-invariant partitions of $X$. Conditions presented in…

An $integral$ of a group $G$ is a group $H$ whose commutator subgroup is isomorphic to $G$. This paper continues the investigation on integrals of groups started in the work arXiv:1803.10179. We study: (1) A sufficient condition for a bound…

By a coprime commutator in a profinite group $G$ we mean any element of the form $[x, y]$, where $x,y\in G$ and $(|x|,|y|)=1$. It is well-known that the subgroup generated by the coprime commutators of $G$ is precisely the pronilpotent…

Let $G$ be a permutation group, and denote with $\mu(G)$ and $b(G)$ its minimal degree and base size respectively. We show that for every $\varepsilon>0$, there exists a transitive permutation group $G$ of degree $n$ with \[ \mu(G)b(G) \geq…

We show how one can obtain a lower bound for the electrical, spin or heat conductivity of correlated quantum systems described by Hamiltonians of the form H = H0 + g H1. Here H0 is an interacting Hamiltonian characterized by conservation…

Let $\mathbf{G}$ be a reductive group defined over $\mathbb{Q}$ and let $\mathfrak{S}$ be a Siegel set in $\mathbf{G}(\mathbb{R})$. The Siegel property tells us that there are only finitely many $\gamma \in \mathbf{G}(\mathbb{Q})$ of…

Let G be a group. We say that G has spread r if for any set of distinct elements {x1,..., xr}\subset G there exists an element y\in G with the property that <xi, y>=G for every 0<i<r+1. Few bounds on the spread of finite simple groups are…

We restrict the possibilities for the character degrees of $p$-groups $G$ satisfying $|G:G'| = p^2$. E.g. if $G$ is of maximal class and has an irreducible character of degree $> p$, then it has such a character of degree at most…

In 2008, Borovik and Cherlin posed the problem of showing that the degree of generic transitivity of an infinite permutation group of finite Morley rank $(X,G)$ is at most $n+2$ where $n$ is the Morley rank of $X$. Moreover, they…

For $G$ a finite group, let $d_2(G)$ denote the proportion of triples $(x, y, z) \in G^3$ such that $[x, y, z] = 1$. We determine the structure of finite groups $G$ such that $d_2(G)$ is bounded away from zero: if $d_2(G) \geq \epsilon >…

We obtain upper bounds on the composition length of a finite permutation group in terms of the degree and the number of orbits, and analogous bounds for primitive, quasiprimitive and semiprimitive groups. Similarly, we obtain upper bounds…

Given a discrete quantum group $H$ with a finite normal quantum subgroup $G$, we show that any positive, possibly unbounded, harmonic function on $H$ with respect to an irreducible invariant random walk is $G$-invariant. This implies that,…
