We develop algebraic models of simple type theories, laying out a framework that extends universal algebra to incorporate both algebraic sorting and variable binding. Examples of simple type theories include the unityped and simply-typed…
In this paper, we consider Problem 14.44 in the Kourovka notebook, which is a conjecture about the number of conjugacy classes of a finite group. While elementary, this conjecture is still open and appears to elude any straightforward…
We classify, up to conjugacy, the finite (constant) subgroups G of adjoint absolutely simple algebraic groups of type $A_1$ over an arbitrary field $k$ of characteristic not 2.
We describe the conjugacy classes of the elements of the free product of two groups and their centralizers and, as a consequence, we correct the calculation of the cyclic and periodic cyclic homology of the group ring of the free product of…
Suppose that $G$ is a finite group and $K$ a non-trivial conjugacy class of $G$ such that $KK^{-1}=1\cup D\cup D^{-1}$ with $D$ a conjugacy class of $G$. We prove that $G$ is not a non-abelian simple group. We also give arithmetical…
For the free group $F_r$ on $r>1$ generators (respectively, the free product $G_1 * G_2$ of two nontrivial finite groups $G_1$ and $G_2$), we obtain the asymptotic for the number of conjugacy classes of commutators in $F_r$ (respectively,…
Two elements in a group $G$ are said to $z$-equivalent or to be in the same $z$-class if their centralizers are conjugate in $G$. In \cite{kkj}, it was proved that a non-abelian $p$-group $G$ can have at most $\frac{p^k-1}{p-1} +1$ number…
The class of finitely presented algebras over a field $K$ with a set of generators $a_{1},\ldots , a_{n}$ and defined by homogeneous relations of the form $a_{1}a_{2}\cdots a_{n} =a_{\sigma (1)} a_{\sigma (2)} \cdots a_{\sigma (n)}$, where…
We consider the subalgebra of the group algebra of a symmetric group consisting of functions that are constant on conjugacy classes with respect to a Young subgroup. We write an expression for structure constants of this algebra in the…
We prove that only finitely many $j$-invariants of elliptic curves with complex multiplication are algebraic units. A rephrased and generalized version of this result resembles Siegel's Theorem on integral points of algebraic curves.
Let $P(G)$ denotes the set of sizes of fibers of non-trivial commutators of the commutator word map. Here, we prove that $|P(G)|=1$, for any finite group $G$ of nilpotency class $3$ with exactlly two conjugacy class sizes. We also show that…
The convolution product of two conjugacy classes of the unitary group $U_n$ is described by a probability distribution on the space of central measures. Relating this convolution to the quantum cohomology of Grassmannians and using recent…
In this article, we characterise the operadic variety of commutative associative algebras over a field via a (categorical) condition: the associativity of the so-called cosmash product. This condition, which is closely related to commutator…
It is shown that there exists a finitely generated infinite simple group of infinite commutator width, and that the commutator width of a finitely generated infinite boundedly simple group can be arbitrarily large. Besides, such groups can…
We express the set of representations from a cyclic $p$-group to a connected $p$-compact group in terms of the associated reflection group and compute its cardinality for each exotic $p$-compact group.
Long ago, Arad and Herzog (AH) conjectured that, in finite simple groups, the product of two conjugacy classes of length greater than one is never a single conjugacy class. We discuss implications of this conjecture for non-abelian anyons…
Let G_1,...,G_q be algebraic varieties over a finite field k. We show that, if q >1, the finiteness of the tensor product of G_1, ...,G_q as Mackey functors. We apply this to prove the finiteness of a relative Chow group and an abelian…
We adapt methods coming from additive combinatorics in groups to the study of linear span in associative unital algebras. In particular, we establish for these algebras analogues of Diderrich-Kneser's and Hamidoune's theorems on sumsets and…
All possible products of all elements of an odd order finite group are considered. A set of all such products is called as a K-set. A hypothesis of K-set coincidence of any group of an odd order with its commutant is proposed and the…
Many results have been established that show how arithmetic conditions on conjugacy class sizes affect group structure. A conjugacy class in $G$ is called vanishing if there exists some irreducible character of $G$ which evaluates to zero…
