Consider a complex unital Banach algebra $\mathcal{A}.$ For $x_1,x_2,x_3\in\mathcal{A},$ in this paper, we establish that under certain assumptions on $x_1,x_2,x_3$, Drazin (resp. g-Drazin) invertibility of any three elements among…

We prove that the $L_1$-norms associated with a positive element $a$ of a unital C*-algebra are equivalent to the norm of C*-algebra if and only if $a$ is invertible.

Inverse semigroups are a class of semigroups whose structure induces a compatible partial order. This partial order is examined so as to establish mirror properties between an inverse semigroup and the semilattice of its idempotent…

Let $G$ be a finite group, and let $\mathrm{Irr}(G)$ denote the set of irreducible complex characters of $G$. An element $x$ of $G$ is said to be vanishing, if for some $\chi$ in $\mathrm{Irr}(G)$, we have $\chi(x)=0$. Also the element $x$…

Suppose $G$ is a simple group. For any nontrivial elements $g$ and $h$, $g$ can be written as a finite product of conjugates of $h$ or the inverse of $h$. G is called uniformly simple if the length of such an expression is uniformly…

A finite subgroup of $GL(n,\mathbb C)$ is involutory if the sum of the dimensions of its irreducible complex representations is given by the number of absolute involutions in the group. A uniform combinatorial model is constructed for all…

We give an account on what is known on the subject of permutation matchings, which are bijections of a finite regular semigroup that map each element to one of its inverses. This includes partial solutions to some open questions, including…

The power graph $\Gamma_G$ of a finite group $G$ is the graph whose vertex set is the group, two distinct elements being adjacent if one is a power of the other. In this paper, we classify the finite groups whose power graphs have…

A group, defined as set with associative multiplication and inverse, is a natural structure describing the symmetry of a space. The concept of group generalizes to group objects internal to other categories than sets. But there are yet more…

We classify finite groups $G$, such that the group algebra, $\mathbb{Q}G$ (over the field of rational numbers $\mathbb{Q}$), is the direct product of the group algebra $\mathbb{Q}[G/N]$ of a proper factor group $G/N$, and some division…

We characterize the generalized weighted core-EP inverse via the canonical decomposition, utilizing a weighted core-EP invertible element and a quasinilpotent. We then offer a polar-like characterization for the generalized weighted core-EP…

This paper characterizes the unital C*-algebra generated by a single invertible element as the unital free product of C[0,1] and C(T). To do this, I develop techniques to split and merge presentations of C*-algebras using free products in…

We call a unital locally convex algebra $A$ a continuous inverse algebra if its unit group $A^\times$ is open and inversion is a continuous map. For any smooth action of a, possibly infinite-dimensional, connected Lie group $G$ on a…

We review and analyse techniques from the literature for extending a normed algebra, A to a normed algebra, B, so that B has interesting or desirable properties which A may lack. For example, B might include roots of monic polynomials over…

For a monic polynomial p(z) with coefficients in a unital complex Banach algebra, we prove that there exist a complex number z such that p(z)is not invertible

We give a complete description of the structure of the connected components of the general linear group of a real hereditarily indecomposable Banach space, depending on the existence of complex structures on the space itself and on its…

A group G is almost cyclic if there is an element x in G, such that for all g in G, there is an element y in G and an integer n with ygy^{-1} = x^n (that is, every element is conjugate to some power of x). W. Ziller asked whether there are…

We study the Drazin inverses of the sum and product of two elements in a ring. For Drazin invertible elements $a$ and $b$ such that $a^2b=aba$ and $b^2a=bab$, it is shown that $ab$ is Drazin invertible and that $a+b$ is Drazin invertible if…

Given a prime number $p$, every irreducible character $\chi$ of a finite group $G$ determines a unique conjugacy class of $p$-subgroups of $G$ which we will call the anchors of $\chi$. This invariant has been considered by L. Barker in the…

In this article the $(b, c)$-inverse will be studied. Several equivalent conditions for the existence of the $(b,c)$-inverse in rings will be given. In particular, the conditions ensuring the existence of the $(b,c)$-inverse, of the…
