For a saturated fusion system $\mathcal F$ on a $p$-group $S$, we study the Burnside ring of the fusion system $B(\mathcal F)$, as defined by Matthew Gelvin and Sune Reeh, which is a subring of the Burnside ring $B(S)$. We give criteria for…

This paper develops links between the Burnside ring of a finite group $G$ and the slice Burnside ring}. The goal is to gain a better understanding of ghost maps, idempotents, prime spectrum of these Burnside rings and connections between…

Engel groups and Engel elements became popular in 50s. We consider in the paper the more general nil-groups and nil-elements in groups. All these notions are related to nilpotent groups and nilpotent radicals in groups. These notions…

We provide a complete characterization of the equivariant commutative ring structures of all the factors in the idempotent splitting of the G-equivariant sphere spectrum, including their Hill-Hopkins-Ravenel norms, where G is any finite…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $p$ be a prime. We study the kernel of the map, between the Burnside ring of $G$ and the Grothendieck ring of $\mathbb{F}_p[G]$-modules, taking a $G$-set to its associated permutation module. We are able, for…

The project of Greenlees et al. on understanding rational G-spectra in terms of algebraic categories has had many successes, classifying rational G-spectra for finite groups, SO(2), O(2), SO(3), free and cofree G-spectra as well as rational…

The double Burnside $R$-algebra $\text{B}_R(G,G)$ of a finite group $G$ with coefficients in a commutative ring $R$ has been introduced by S. Bouc. It is $R$-linearly generated by finite $(G,G)$-bisets, modulo a relation identifying…

An isomorphism between the group ring of a finite group and a ring of certain block diagonal matrices is established. The group ring $RG$ of a finite group $G$ is isomorphic to the set of {\em group ring matrices} over $R$. It is shown that…

A group element is called a generalized torsion if a finite product of its conjugates is equal to the identity. We prove that in a nilpotent or FC-group, the generalized torsion elements are all torsion elements. Moreover, we compute the…

This paper introduces two new Burnside rings for a finite group $G$, called the slice Burnside ring and the section Burnside ring. They are built as Grothendieck rings of the category of morphisms of $G$-sets, and of Galois morphisms of…

Global representation rings were discovered by Sarah Witherspoon in 1995 and the Knutson Index was introduced by the second author in 2022. In the present paper we introduce the Knutson Index for general commutative rings and study it for…

In this note we present an algorithm for the construction of the unit group of the Burnside ring $\Omega(G)$ of a finite group $G$ from a list of representatives of the conjugacy classes of subgroups of G.

Let $G$ be a finite group, and $C$ be an abelian group. We introduce the notions of $C$-monomial $G$-sets and $C$-monomial $G$-posets, and state some of their categorical properties. This gives in particular a new description of the…

We introduce the universal Euler characteristic of orbit space definable groupoids, a class of groupoids containing cocompact proper Lie groupoids as well as translation groupoids associated to proper definable group actions. We show that…

It is known that the norm map N_G for a finite group G acting on a ring R is surjective if and only if for every elementary abelian subgroup E of G the norm map N_E for E is surjective. Equivalently, there exists an element x_G in R with…

In this note, we compute the split Grothendieck ring of a generalized category of Soergel bimodules of type $A_2$, where we take one generator for each reflection. We give a presentation by generators and relations of it and a…

We develop the basic theory of geometrically closed rings as a generalisation of algebraically closed fields, on the grounds of notions coming from positive model theory and affine algebraic geometry. For this purpose we consider several…

We define the generalized Burnside algebra $HB(W_{n})$ for $B_{n}$-type Coxeter group $W_{n}$ and construct an surjective algebra morphism between Mantaci-Reutenauer algebra ${\sum}'(W_{n})$ and $HB(W_{n})$. Then, by obtaining the primitive…

The Burnside Problem asks whether a finitely generated group of exponent n is finite. We present a solution for 2-generator groups of prime power exponent. Results of P. Hall and G. Higman extends the finiteness conclusion to groups having…

We describe the essential algebra, $\widehat{kB_T}(G)$, of the Burnside biset functor shifted by a group $T$, at a group $G$, in two cases. First, when $G$ and $T$ are both finite abelian groups and $k$ is a field of characteristic $0$. In…
