Let $R$ be a commutative ring, $G$ a group and $RG$ its group ring. Let $\phi_{\sigma} : RG\to RG$ denote the involution defined by $\phi_{\sigma} (\sum r_{g}g) = \sum r_{g} \sigma (g) g^{-1}$, where $\sigma:G\to \{\pm 1\}$ is a group…

We propose an interpretation for the meets and joins in the lattice of experimental propositions of a physical theory, answering a question of Birkhoff and von Neumann in [1]. When the lattice is atomistic, it is isomorphic to the lattice…

For a finite group $G$, we denote by $\omega(G)$ the number of $\operatorname{Aut}(G)$-orbits on $G$, and by $\operatorname{o}(G)$ the number of distinct element orders in $G$. In this paper, we are primarily concerned with the two…

In this short note, we study the variation of orbital integrals, as traces on the group algebra $G$, under the deformation groupoid. We show that orbital integrals are continuous under the deformation. And we prove that the pairing between…

Let $G$ be a finite permutation group acting on $\mathbb{R}^d$ by permuting coordinates. A core point (for $G$) is an integral vector $z\in \mathbb{Z}^d$ such that the convex hull of the orbit $Gz$ contains no other integral vectors but…

Let G be a transitive group of permutations of a finite set X, and suppose that some element of G has at most two orbits on X. We prove that any two maximal chains of groups between G and a point-stabilizer of G have the same length, and…

As shown by A. Melnikov, the orbits of a Borel subgroup acting by conjugation on upper-triangular matrices with square zero are indexed by involutions in the symmetric group. The inclusion relation among the orbit closures defines a partial…

If $G$ is a finite group, then the spectrum $\omega(G)$ is the set of all element orders of $G$. The prime spectrum $\pi(G)$ is the set of all primes belonging to $\omega(G)$. A simple graph $\Gamma(G)$ whose vertex set is $\pi(G)$ and in…

We introduce a new tool, called the orbit automaton, that describes the action of an automaton group $G$ on the subtrees corresponding to the orbits of $G$ on levels of the tree. The connection between $G$ and the groups generated by the…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $\psi(G) = \sum_{g \in G} o(g)$, where $o(g)$ denotes the order of $g \in G$. In [M. Herzog, et. al., Two new criteria for solvability of finite groups, J. Algebra, 2018], the authors put forward the following…

Let G_R be a Lie group acting on an oriented manifold M, and let $\omega$ be an equivariantly closed form on M. If both G_R and M are compact, then the integral $\int_M \omega$ is given by the fixed point integral localization formula…

A transitive group $G$ of permutations of a set $\Omega$ is primitive if the only $G$-invariant equivalence relations on $\Omega$ are the trivial and universal relations. If $\alpha \in \Omega$, then the orbits of the stabiliser $G_\alpha$…

We take the first steps towards a better understanding of continuous orbit equivalence, i.e., topological orbit equivalence with continuous cocycles. First, we characterise continuous orbit equivalence in terms of isomorphisms of C*-crossed…

We present some homological properties of a relation $\beta$ on ordered groupoids that generalises the minimum group congruence for inverse semigroups. When $\beta$ is a transitive relation on an ordered groupoid $G$, the quotient $G /…

A notion of degeneration of elements in groups is introduced. It is used to parametrize the orbits in a finite abelian group under its full automorphism group by a finite distributive lattice. A pictorial description of this lattice leads…
