Let X be an affine variety and L be a solvable Lie subalgebra of Lie(Aut(X)) generated by a finite collection of locally finite Lie subalgebras. The authors of [arXiv:2507.09679] wondered whether L is itself locally finite. Here we present…

We determine all finite subgroups of simple algebraic groups that have irreducible centralizers - that is, centralizers whose connected component does not lie in a parabolic subgroup.

We show that any pseudofinite group with NIP theory and with a finite upper bound on the length of chains of centralisers is soluble-by-finite. In particular, any NIP rosy pseudofinite group is soluble-by-finite. This generalises, and…

We introduce the pseudovariety of finite groups $\mathbf{U} = \displaystyle\bigvee_{p \in \mathbb{P}} {\bf Ab}(p) \ast {\bf Ab}(p-1)$, where $\mathbb{P}$ is the set of all primes. We show that $\mathbf{U}$ consists of all finite…

It is proved that if a finite group $G$ has an automorphism of order $n$ with $m$ fixed points, then $G$ has a soluble subgroup whose index and Fitting height are bounded in terms of $m$ and $n$. As a corollary, a problem of B. Hartley is…

In this paper we begin the systematic study of group equations with abelian predicates in the main classes of groups where solving equations is possible. We extend the line of work on word equations with length constraints, and more…

The concept of a C-approximable group, for a class of finite groups C, is a common generalization of the concepts of a sofic, weakly sofic, and linear sofic group. Glebsky raised the question whether all groups are approximable by finite…

We continue in this paper the study of locally minimal groups started in \cite{LocMin}. The minimality criterion for dense subgroups of compact groups is extended to local minimality. Using this criterion we characterize the compact abelian…

Let p be a prime. Every finite group G has a normal series each of whose quotients either is p-soluble or is a direct product of nonabelian simple groups of orders divisible by p. The non-p-soluble length of G is defined as the minimal…

The study of localizations of groups has concentrated on group theoretic properties which are preserved by localization. In this paper we look at finitely generated soluble groups and determine when the local groups associated with them are…

For a finite group $G$, let $\sigma(G)$ be the number of subgroups of $G$ and $\sigma_\iota(G)$ the number of isomorphism types of subgroups of $G$. Let $L=L_r(p^e)$ denote a simple group of Lie type, rank $r$, over a field of order $p^e$…

Let $\sigma=\{\sigma_j\,:\, j\in J\}$ be a partition of the set $\mathbb{P}$ of all prime numbers. A subgroup $X$ of a finite group $G$ is~\textit{$\sigma$-subnormal} in $G$ if there exists a chain of subgroups $$X=X_0\leq X_1\leq\ldots\leq…

For any right-angled Artin group, we show that its outer automorphism group contains either a finite-index nilpotent subgroup or a nonabelian free subgroup. This is a weak Tits alternative theorem. We find a criterion on the defining graph…

We classify abelian subgroups of the automorphism group of any compact simple Lie algebra whose centralizer has the same dimension as the dimension of the subgroup. This leads to a classification of the maximal abelian subgroups of compact…

We initiate the study of the $p$-local commensurability graph of a group, where $p$ is a prime. This graph has vertices consisting of all finite-index subgroups of a group, where an edge is drawn between $A$ and $B$ if $[A : A\cap B]$ and…

Let $d \geq 2$ be an integer. We conjecture that there is a finitely generated perfect group whose homomorphic images include all finite $d$-generated perfect groups. We prove a special case of this conjecture for the finite perfect groups…

Given a definably amenable approximate subgroup $A$ of a (local) group in some first-order structure, there is a type-definable subgroup $H$ normalised by $A$ and contained in $A^4$ such that every definable superset of $H$ has positive…

We study a class of finite groups $G$ which behave similarly to elementary abelian $p$-groups with $p$ prime, that is, there exists a subgroup $N$ such that all elements of $G\setminus N$ are conjugate or inverse-conjugate under $\Aut(G)$.…

Let c(d) denote the minimal composition length of all finite solvable groups with solvable (or derived) length d. We prove that c(d) equals 0,1,2,4,5,7,8,13,15 when d=0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8.

This paper provides the first steps in classifying the finite solvable groups having Property A, which is a property involving abelian normal subgroups. We see that this classification is reduced to classifying the solvable Chermak-Delgado…
