Let $R$ be a commutative ring, $G$ a group and $RG$ its group ring. Let $\phi_{\sigma} : RG\to RG$ denote the involution defined by $\phi_{\sigma} (\sum r_{g}g) = \sum r_{g} \sigma (g) g^{-1}$, where $\sigma:G\to \{\pm 1\}$ is a group…

An isomorphism between the group ring of a finite group and a ring of certain block diagonal matrices is established. The group ring $RG$ of a finite group $G$ is isomorphic to the set of {\em group ring matrices} over $R$. It is shown that…

We classify the finite groups $G$ such that the group of units of the integral group ring ${\mathbb Z} G$ has a subgroup of finite index which is a direct product of free-by-free groups.

We explore the concept of conjugation between subgroupoids, providing several characterizations of the conjugacy relation (Theorem A in {\S}1.2). We show that two finite groupoid-sets, over a locally strongly finite groupoid, are…

Let $V$ be a M\"{o}bius vertex algebra and $G$ an abelian group of automorphisms of $V$. We construct $P(z)$-tensor product bifunctors for the category of $C_{n}$-cofinite grading-restricted generalized $g$-twisted $V$-modules (without…

Let G be a reductive group over a commutative ring R. We say that G has isotropic rank >=n, if every normal semisimple reductive R-subgroup of G contains (G_m)^n. We prove that if G has isotropic rank >=1 and R is a regular domain…

We prove that the outer automorphism group $Out(G)$ is residually finite when the group $G$ is virtually compact special (in the sense of Haglund and Wise) or when $G$ is isomorphic to the fundamental group of some compact $3$-manifold. To…

Let $H$ be a finite dimensional pointed rank one Hopf algebra of nilpotent type. We first determine all finite dimensional indecomposable $H$-modules up to isomorphism, and then establish the Clebsch-Gordan formulas for the decompositions…

Let $G$ be a group and $L(G)$ be the set of all subgroups of $G$. We introduce a bipartite graph $\mathcal{B}(G)$ on $G$ whose vertex set is the union of two sets $G \times G$ and $L(G)$, and two vertices $(a, b) \in G \times G$ and $H \in…

Let $G$ be a group. The orbits of the natural action of $Aut(G)$ on $G$ are called the automorphism orbits of $G$, and their number is denoted by $\omega(G)$. Let $\mathbb{F}$ be an infinite field, and let $UT_n(\mathbb{F})$ denote the…

In this note we provide a negative answer to the question: ``Is it true that for every positive rational number $r$ there exists a finite abelian group $G$ such that $|\mathrm{Aut}(G)|/|G| = r$?". We show that if $r = a/b$ is a rational…

Let $\mathbf{F}$ be a real extension of $\mathbb{Q}$, $G$ a finite group and $\mathbf{F}G$ its group algebra. Given both a group homomorphism $\sigma:G\rightarrow \{\pm1\}$ (called an orientation) and a group involution $^\ast:G \rightarrow…

For each group G which decomposes into a finitary direct product of free groups of finite rank we construct a regular band B such that the free idempotent generated semigroup over B contains a maximal subgroup isomorphic to G. In…

In this paper we prove that every $2$-generator finite $p$-group $G$ has a non-inner automorphism of order $p$ leaving $G^p\gamma_4(G)$ elementwise fixed ($p\ge 5$). Moreover, we prove a $2$-generator finite $3$-group satisfying…

For a finite group $G$, we denote by $\omega(G)$ the number of $\operatorname{Aut}(G)$-orbits on $G$, and by $\operatorname{o}(G)$ the number of distinct element orders in $G$. In this paper, we are primarily concerned with the two…

Let $k$ be a field and let $\Lambda$ be an indecomposable finite dimensional $k$-algebra such that there is a stable equivalence of Morita type between $\Lambda$ and a self-injective split basic Nakayama algebra over $k$. We show that every…

If H is a flat group of automorphisms of finite rank n of a totally disconnected, locally compact group G, then each orbit of H in the metric space B(G) of compact, open subgroups of G is quasi-isometric to n-dimensional euclidean space. In…

Let $G$ be a group. The orbits of the natural action of Aut$(G)$ on $G$ are called ``automorphism orbits'' of $G$, and the number of automorphism orbits of $G$ is denoted by $\omega(G)$. We prove that if $G$ is a soluble group with finite…
