In this paper we revisit two concepts which were originally introduced by Aschbacher and are crucial in the theory of saturated fusion systems: Firstly, we give a new approach to defining the centralizer of a normal subsystem. Secondly, we…
We describe some new ways to construct saturated fusion subsystems, including, as a special case, the normalizer of a set of components of the ambient fusion system. This was motivated in part by Aschbacher's construction of the normalizer…
We introduce the notion of a pro-fusion system on a pro-p group, which generalizes the notion of a fusion system on a finite p-group. We also prove a version of Alperin's Fusion Theorem for pro-fusion systems.
Linking systems were introduced to provide algebraic models for $p$-completed classifying spaces of fusion systems. Every linking system over a saturated fusion system $\mathcal{F}$ corresponds to a group-like structure called a locality.…
In this article we prove that for any saturated fusion system, that the (unique) smallest weakly normal subsystem of it on a given strongly closed subgroup is actually normal. This has a variety of corollaries, such as the statement that…
The theory of saturated fusion systems resembles in many parts the theory of finite groups. However, some concepts from finite group theory are difficult to translate to fusion systems. For example, products of normal subsystems with other…
Dividing the world into subsystems is an important component of the scientific method. The choice of subsystems, however, is not defined a priori. Typically, it is dictated by experimental capabilities, which may be different for different…
Suppose $\mathcal{E}$ is a normal subsystem of a saturated fusion system $\mathcal{F}$ over $S$. If $X\leq S$ is fully $\mathcal{F}$-normalized, then Aschbacher defined a normal subsystem $N_{\mathcal{E}}(X)$ of $N_{\mathcal{F}}(X)$. In…
Here we generalize the concept of spatial tensor product, introduced by Skeide, of two product systems via a pair of normalized units. This new notion is called amalgamated tensor product of product systems, and now the amalgamation can be…
We say that a fusion system is the composition product of two subsystems if every morphism can be factored as a morphism in one fusion system followed by a morphism in the other. We establish a relationship between the characteristic…
When $(S,\mathcal{F},\mathcal{L})$ is a $p$-local finite group and $(T,\mathcal{E},\mathcal{\L}_0)$ is weakly normal in $(S,\mathcal{F},\mathcal{L})$ we show that a definition of $C_S(\mathcal{E})$ given by Aschbacher has a simple…
In this article, we compare two different notions of partially defined group strutures, namely partial groups and pregroups, as introduced by Chermak and Stallings respectively. In particular we prove that the category of pregroups can be…
Every saturated fusion system corresponds to a group-like structure called a regular locality. In this paper we study (suitably defined) normalizers and centralizers of partial subnormal subgroups of regular localities. This leads to a…
A saturated fusion system over a finite $p$-group $S$ is a category whose objects are the subgroups of $S$ and whose morphisms are injective homomorphisms between the subgroups satisfying certain axioms. A fusion system over $S$ is realized…
In this paper we study obstructions to presentability by products for finitely generated groups. Along the way we develop both the concept of acentral subgroups, and the relations between presentability by products on the one hand, and…
The notion of normal products, a generalization of Wick products, is derived with respect to BPHZ renormalization formulated entirely in configuration space. Inserted into time-ordered products, normal products admit the limit of coinciding…
We show that every rank two $p$-group acts freely and smoothly on a product of two spheres. This follows from a more general construction: given a smooth action of a finite group $G$ on a manifold $M$, we construct a smooth free action on…
Fusion is defined for arbitrary lowest weight representations of $W$-algebras, without assuming rationality. Explicit algorithms are given. A category of quasirational representations is defined and shown to be stable under fusion.…
Let $\mathcal F$ be a saturated fusion system on a finite $p$-group $S$, and let $P$ be a strongly $\mathcal F$-closed subgroup of $S$. We define the concept ``$\mathcal F$-essential subgroups with respect to $P$" which are some proper…
We introduce the notion of a matched pair of fusion rings and fusion categories, generalizing the one for groups. Using this concept, we define the bicrossed product of fusion rings and fusion categories and we construct exact…
