We solve a technical problem related to adeles on an algebraic surface. Given a finite set of natural numbers up to two, one associates an adelic group. We show that this operation commutes with taking intersections if the surface is…

We prove that the alternating groups of degree at least $5$ are uniquely determined up to an abelian direct factor by the degrees of their irreducible complex representations. This confirms Huppert's Conjecture for alternating groups.

We present a family of finite, non-abelian groups and propose that there are members of this family whose commuting graphs are connected and of arbitrarily large diameter. If true, this would disprove a conjecture of Iranmanesh and…

Let $G$ be a finite group, and let $N(G)$ be the set of sizes of its conjugacy classes. We show that if a finite group $G$ has trivial center and $N(G)$ equals to $N(Alt_n)$ or $N(Sym_n)$ for $n\geq 23$, then $G$ has a composition factor…

In this work, we identify a certain family of higher-dimensional formal groups over the ring of $p$-adic integers such that any two formal groups in that class coincide if they share infinitely many torsion points. As a useful application,…

We prove that the product of a subset and a normal subset inside any finite simple non-abelian group $G$ grows rapidly. More precisely, if $A$ and $B$ are two subsets with $B$ normal and neither of them is too large inside $G$, then $|AB|…

Some results that are true in classical groups are investigated in generalized groups and are shown to be either generally true in generalized groups or true in some special types of generalized groups. Also, it is shown that a Bol groupoid…

We prove that there exists a finitely generated group that satisfies a group law with probability 1 but does not satisfy any group law. More precisely, we construct a finitely generated group G in which the probability that a random element…

It is proved that, on any Abelian group of infinite cardinality ${\bf m}$, there exist precisely $2^{2^{\bf m}}$ nonequivalent bounded Hausdorff group topologies. Under the continuum hypothesis, the number of nonequivalent compact and…

A group in which every element commutes with its endomorphic images is called an $E$-group. If $p$ is a prime number, a $p$-group $G$ which is an $E$-group is called a $pE$-group. Every abelian group is obviously an $E$-group. We prove that…

Given two subgroups H,K of a finite group G, the probability that a pair of random elements from H and K commutes is denoted by \pr(H,K). We address the following question. Let P be a p-subgroup of a finite group G and assume that…

Consider the random Cayley graph of a finite Abelian group $G$ with respect to $k$ generators chosen uniformly at random, with $1 \ll \log k \ll \log |G|$. Draw a vertex $U \sim \operatorname{Unif}(G)$. We show that the graph distance…

A group in which every element commutes with its endomorphic images is called an $E$-group. Our main result is that all 3-generator $E$-groups are abelian. It follows that the minimal number of generators of a finitely generated non-abelian…

(withdrawn.) For every lambda we give an explicit construction of an Abelian group with no non-trivial automorphisms. In particular the group absolutely has no non-trivial automorphisms, hence is absolutely indecomposable. Earlier we knew a…

It was shown in [A. Azimifard, E. Samei, N. Spronk, JFA 2009; arxiv 0805.3685] that the ZL-amenability constant of a finite group is always at least 1, with equality if and only if the group is abelian. It was also shown in the same paper…

We consider the random right-angled Coxeter group $W_{\Gamma}$ whose presentation graph $\Gamma\sim \mathcal{G}_{n,p}$ is an Erd{\H o}s--R\'enyi random graph on $n$ vertices with edge probability $p=p(n)$. We establish that $p=1/\sqrt{n}$…

In the degree-diameter problem for Abelian Cayley and circulant graphs of diameter 2 and arbitrary degree d there is a wide gap between the best lower and upper bounds valid for all d, being quadratic functions with leading coefficient 1/4…

The Mordell--Lang conjecture for abelian varieties states that the intersection of an algebraic subvariety $X$ with a subgroup of finite rank is contained in a finite union of cosets contained in $X$. In this article, we prove a uniform…

A graph $\Gamma$ is said to be a semi-Cayley graph over a group $G$ if it admits $G$ as a semiregular automorphism group with two orbits of equal size. We say that $\Gamma$ is normal if $G$ is a normal subgroup of ${\rm Aut}(\Gamma)$. We…

Given a Lie algebra $L$ graded by a group $G$, if $L$ is does not contain orthogonal graded ideals and $G$ is generated by the support of $L$, then $G$ is an abelian group.
