We conjecture that if $G$ is a simple compact Lie group with trivial center, then every $d$-variable non-constant word map with coefficients in $G$ defines a non-constant function on $G^d$. We prove the conjecture for $A_r$, $B_r$, $E_6$,…

Let $G$ be a connected closed subgroup of $\mathrm{GL}_n(\mathbb{C})$ which is simple as a Lie group and which acts irreducibly on $\mathbb{C}^n$. Regarding both $G$ and its Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ as subsets of $M_n(\mathbb{C})$, we…

We prove that Ad-semisimple conjugacy classes in a connected Lie group $G$ are closed embedded submanifolds of $G$. We also prove that if $\alpha:H\to G$ is a homomorphism of connected Lie groups such that the kernel of $\alpha$ is discrete…

Let $G$ be a finite group, $N(G)$ be the set of conjugacy classes of the group $G$. In the present paper it is proved $G\simeq L$ if $N(G)=N(L)$, where $G$ is a finite group with trivial center and $L$ is a finite simple group of…

Let $\chi$ be a complex irreducible character of a finite group $G$. The conductor of $\chi$, denoted $c(\chi)$, is the smallest positive integer $n$ such that $\chi(x)\in \mathbb{Q}(\exp({2\pi i/n}))$ for all $x\in G$. We show that for…

For $n \geq 2$ let $\Delta$ be a Dynkin diagram of rank $n$ and let $I = {1, >..., n}$ be the set of labels of $\Delta$. A group $G$ admits a weak Phan system of type $\Delta$ over $\mathbb{C}$ if $G$ is generated by subgroups $U_i$, $i \in…

The generalized order $e_G(g)$ of an element $g$ of a group $G$ is the smallest positive integer $k$ such that there exist $x_1,\ldots,x_k \in G$ such that $g^{x_1} \ldots g^{x_k}=1$, where $g^x=x^{-1}gx$. Let $e(G) = \max \{e_G(g)\ |\ g…

Let $\mathcal{C}$ be a conjugacy class of involutions in a group $G$. We study the graph $\Gamma(\mathcal{C})$ whose vertices are elements of $\mathcal{C}$ with $g,h\in\mathcal{C}$ connected by an edge if and only if $gh\in\mathcal{C}$. For…

Following the literature, a group $G$ is called a group of central type if $G$ has an irreducible character that vanishes on $G\setminus Z(G)$. Motivated by this definition, we say that a character $\chi\in {\rm Irr}(G)$ has central type if…

Let G be a p-adic Lie group and Ad be the adjoint representation of G on its Lie algebra. It was claimed in the literature that the kernel K of Ad always has an abelian open normal subgroup. We show by means of a counterexample that this…

We describe simply connected compact exceptional simple Lie groups in very elementary way. We first construct all simply connected compact exceptional Lie groups G concretely. Next, we find all involutive automorphisms of G, and determine…

A pointwise-elliptic subset of a topological group is one whose elements all generate relatively-compact subgroups. A connected locally compact group has a dense pointwise-elliptic subgroup if and only if it is an extension by a compact…
