We give new characterizations of sofic groups: -- A group $G$ is sofic if and only if it is a subgroup of a quotient of a direct product of alternating or symmetric groups. -- A group $G$ is sofic if and only if any system of equations…

In the framework of adelic approach we consider real and p-adic properties of dynamical system given by linear fractional map f (x) = (a x + b)/(c x + d), where a, b, c and d are rational numbers. In particular, we investigate behavior of…

We prove a version of van der Corput's Lemma for polynomials over the p-adic numbers.

Surface groups are determined among limit groups by their profinite completions. As a corollary, the set of surface words in a free group is closed in the profinite topology.

We develop a detailed arithmetic theory related to special values at arbitrary integers of the Artin $L$-series of linear characters. To do so we define canonical generalized Stark elements of arbitrary `rank' and `weight', thereby…

Perspective differences exist among different cultures or languages. A lack of mutual understanding among different groups about their perspectives on specific values or events may lead to uninformed decisions or biased opinions.…

In multi-criteria decision analysis workshops, participants often appraise the options individually before discussing the scoring as a group. The individual appraisals lead to score ranges within which the group then seeks the necessary…

In this work, we identify a certain family of higher-dimensional formal groups over the ring of $p$-adic integers such that any two formal groups in that class coincide if they share infinitely many torsion points. As a useful application,…

A group-word $w$ is called concise if the verbal subgroup $w(G)$ is finite whenever $w$ takes only finitely many values in a group $G$. It is known that there are words that are not concise. The problem whether every word is concise in the…

A pointed $p$-group is a pointed group $P_\gamma$ such that $P$ is a $p$-group. We parameterize the pointed $p$-groups on a group algebra or on a block algebra of a group algebra. The parameterization involves $p$-subgroups and irreducible…

A finite abelian $p$-group having an automorphism $x$ such that $1+\ldots+x^{p-1}=0$, can be viewed as a module over an appropriate discrete valuation ring $\mathcal{O}$ containing $\mathbb{Z}_p$ (the ring of $p$-adic integer). This yields…

For a variety of finite groups $\mathbf H$, let $\overline{\mathbf H}$ denote the variety of finite semigroups all of whose subgroups lie in $\mathbf H$. We give a characterization of the subsets of a finite semigroup that are pointlike…

We compute Euler characteristics of p-subgroup categories of finite groups

Some well-known and less well-known or new notions related to group actions are surveyed. Some of these notions are used to generalize affine spaces. Actions are seen as functions with values in transformation monoids

In this paper, we prove $p$-stability results for the critical L-values of algebraic Hecke characters over CM fields in $\ell$-adic anticyclotomic twist family with $\ell\neq p$.

The conjecture that semi-p-abelian groups is strongly semi-p-abelian is flase for p=3.And it's true for metabelian semi-p-abelian groups.

A word $w$ is concise in a class of groups $\mathcal{C}$ if, for every group $G$ in $\mathcal{C}$, the verbal subgroup $w(G)$ is finite whenever $w$ takes only finitely many values in $G$. This notion can be naturally extended to…

Summation of a large class of the functional series, which terms contain factorials, is considered. We first investigated finite partial sums for integer arguments. These sums have the same values in real and all p-adic cases. The…

In this note, basing on a certain functional equation of the dilogarithm function, we establish nontrivial lower bounds for the $p$-adic valuation (where $p$ is a given prime number) of some type of rational numbers involving harmonic…

This paper studies a subset of the free semi-group $F_k$ with letters in a field $k$ which has some interesting arithmetic and combinatorial properties.
