Let $\ell \geqslant 0$ be an integer, and $G$ be a graph without loops. An $\ell$-link of $G$ is a walk of length $\ell$ in which consecutive edges are different. We identify an $\ell$-link with its reverse sequence. The $\ell$-link graph…
Let G be a unipotent algebraic subgroup of some GL_m(C) defined over Q. We describe an algorithm for finding a finite set of generators of the subgroup G(Z) = G \cap GL_m(Z). This is based on a new proof of the result (in more general form…
Suppose that a Lie algebra $L$ admits a finite Frobenius group of automorphisms $FH$ with cyclic kernel $F$ and complement $H$ of order 2, such that the fixed-point subalgebra of $F$ is trivial and the fixed-point subalgebra of $H$ is…
Graphs with given k vertices generate an (acyclic) simplicial complex. We describe the homology of its quotient complex, formed by all connected graphs, and demonstrate its applications to the topology of braid groups, knot theory,…
An A-infinity algebra is a generalization of a associative algebra, and an L-infinity algebra is a generalization of a Lie algebra. In this paper, we show that an L-infinity algebra with an invariant inner product determines a cycle in the…
For a finite group $G$ and for a fixed positive integer $k$, $k\geq 2$, the $k$-power graph of $G$ is an undirected simple graph with vertex set $G$ in which two distinct vertices $x$ and $y$ are adjacent if and only if $x^k=y$ or $y^k=x$.…
Given a group $G$, we define the power graph $\mathcal{P}(G)$ as follows: the vertices are the elements of $G$ and two vertices $x$ and $y$ are joined by an edge if $\langle x \rangle \subseteq \langle y \rangle$ or $\langle y \rangle…
Every nonabelian finite simple group of rank $n$ over a field of size $q$, with the possible exception of the Ree groups $^2G_2(3^{2e+1})$, has a presentation with a bounded number of generators and relations and total length $O(\log n…
In this note we give presentations of all finite subgroups of the mapping class group of a closed surface of genus 2 by the Humphries generators up to conjugacy.
We prove the finiteness of the kernel of the localization map in the Galois cohomology of a connected reductive group over a global field
We show that the group $H_2(\slzti;\zz)$ is not finitely generated, answering a question mentioned by Bux and Wortman in \cite{bux}.
Let $\Gamma$ be a finite group acting on a Lie group $G$. We consider a class of group extensions $1 \to G \to \hat{G} \to \Gamma \to 1$ defined by this action and a $2$-cocycle of $\Gamma$ with values in the centre of $G$. We establish and…
Given a Kahler group, we study the set of homomorphisms from this group to the mapping class group which can be realized as the monodromy of a holomorphic family of curves.
Autostackability for finitely presented groups is a topological property of the Cayley graph combined with formal language theoretic restrictions, that implies solvability of the word problem. The class of autostackable groups is known to…
We produce a sequence of finite dimensional representations of the fundamental group $\pi_1(S)$ of a closed surface where all simple closed curves act with finite order, but where each non--simple closed curve eventually acts with infinite…
A {\it graph product} $G$ on a graph $\Gamma$ is a group defined as follows: For each vertex $v$ of $\Gamma$ there is a corresponding non-trivial group $G_v$. The group $G$ is the quotient of the free product of the $G_v$ by the commutation…
In this paper, using some properties of fundamental groups and covering spaces of connected polyhedra and CW-complexes, we present topological proof for some famous theorems about finitely presented groups.
We propose and study a hierarchical algorithm to generate graphs having a predetermined distribution of cliques, the fully connected subgraphs. The construction mechanism may be either random or incorporate preferential attachment. We…
These notes concern aspects of various graphs whose vertex set is a group $G$ and whose edges reflect group structure in some way (so that they are invariant under the action of the automorphism group of $G$). The graphs I will discuss are…
Given a finite group $G$, we study the monomial algebra $R_G$, generated by the monomial characters of $G$. In particular, we note that the integral closure of $R_G$ is contained in the algebra generated by those characters $\chi$ for which…
