We derive double coset formulae for the genus and extended genus of a finitely generated nilpotent group G, using the notions of bounded and bounded above automorphisms of $\prod G_S$, which are defined relative to a fixed fracture square…

We give a description of finite semigroups $S$ that are minimal for not being Malcev nilpotent, i.e. every proper subsemigroup and every proper Rees factor semigroup is Malcev nilpotent but $S$ is not. For groups this question was…

We study groups having the property that every non-cyclic subgroup contains its centralizer. The structure of nilpotent and supersolvable groups in this class is described. We also classify finite $p$-groups and finite simple groups with…

Let $K=Z/pZ$ and let $A$ be a subset of $\GL_r(K)$ such that $<A>$ is solvable. We reduce the study of the growth of $A$ under the group operation to the nilpotent setting. Specifically we prove that either $A$ grows rapidly (meaning…

We develop a structure theory for nilpotent symplectic alternating algebras. We then give a classification of all nilpotent symplectic alternating algebras of dimension up to 10 over any field. The study reveals a new subclasses of powerful…

We investigate some situation in which automorphisms of a group G are uniquely determined by their restrictions to a proper subgroup H. Much of the paper is devoted to studying under which additional hypotheses this property forces G to be…

We establish a surprising correspondence between groups definable in o-minimal structures and linear algebraic groups, in the nilpotent case. It turns out that in the o-minimal context, like for finite groups, nilpotency is equivalent to…

Let $\mathfrak{Nil}$ be the class of nilpotent groups. This article explores the finiteness of meta and para-$\mathfrak{Nil}$-Hamiltonian groups or their derived subgroups when these groups contain a soluble subgroup of finite index or a…

Let $G$ be a group. Write $G^{*}=G\setminus \{1\}$. An element $x$ of $G^{*}$ will be called deficient if $ \langle x\rangle < C_G(x)$ and it will be called non-deficient if $\langle x\rangle = C_G(x).$ If $x\in G$ is deficient…

It was shown in Part I that there exist strongly dense free subgroups in any semisimple algebraic group over a large enough field. These are nonabelian free subgroups all of whose subgroups are either cyclic or Zariski-dense. Here we show…

We show that group C*-algebras of finitely generated, nilpotent groups have finite nuclear dimension. It then follows, from a string of deep results, that the C*-algebra $A$ generated by an irreducible representation of such a group has…

We prove that if $(H,G)$ is a small, $nm$-stable compact $G$-group, then $H$ is nilpotent-by-finite, and if additionally $\NM(H) \leq \omega$, then $H$ is abelian-by-finite. Both results are significant steps towards the proof of the…

A subset $X$ of a finite group $G$ is said to be prime-power-independent if each element in $X$ has prime power order and there is no proper subset $Y$ of $X$ with $\langle Y, \Phi(G)\rangle = \langle X, \Phi(G)\rangle$, where $\Phi(G)$ is…

An element $x$ in a finite group $G$ is said to be \textit{vanishing} if some (complex) irreducible character of $G$ takes value $0$ at $x$. In this article, we prove that every non-abelian finite simple group, except $\mathrm{SL}_2(4)$ and…

A number of upper bounds are proved relating to the triple product property (TPP) for subgroups of finite nilpotent groups of class $2$. The TPP is the property defined for three non-empty subsets $S, T, U$ of a group $G$ that the group…

Let G be a finite group, p a fixed prime and P a Sylow p-subgroup of G. In this short note we prove that if p is odd, G is p-nilpotent if and only if P controls fusion of cyclic groups of order p. For the case p=2, we show that G is…

Let $G$ be an amenable group. We define and study an algebra $\mathcal{A}_{sn}(G)$, which is related to invariant means on the subnormal subgroups of $G$. For a just infinite amenable group $G$, we show that $\mathcal{A}_{sn}(G)$ is…

We describe maximal nilpotent subsemigroups of a given nilpotency class in the semigroup $\Omega_n$ of all $n\times n$ real matrices with non-negative coefficients and the semigroup $\mathbf{D}_n$ of all doubly stochastic real matrices.

We establish some results on the structure of the geometric unipotent radicals of pseudo-reductive k-groups. In particular, our main theorem gives bounds on the nilpotency class of geometric unipotent radicals of standard pseudo-reductive…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $\pi$ be a set of primes. We study finite groups with a large number of conjugacy classes of $\pi$-elements. In particular, we obtain precise lower bounds for this number in terms of the $\pi$-part of the order…
