The classical Grunwald--Wang theorem is an example of a local--global (or Hasse) principle stating that except in some special cases which are precisely determined, an element $m$ in a number field $\mathbb{K}$ is an $a$-th power in…

Let $n$ be a natural number greater than $2$ and $q$ be the smallest prime dividing $n$. We show that a finite subset $A$ of rationals, of cardinality at most $q$, contains a $n^{th}$ power in $\mathbb{Q}_{p}$ for almost every prime $p$ if…

Let m, n be positive integers, v a multilinear commutator word and w = v^m. Denote by v(G) and w(G) the verbal subgroups of a group G corresponding to v and w, respectively. We prove that the class of all groups G in which the w-values are…

Let A be an abelian variety over a number field k. We show that weak approximation holds in the Weil-Ch\^atelet group of A/k but that it may fail when one restricts to the n-torsion subgroup. This failure is however relatively mild; we show…

Let $g$ be an element of a group $G$. For a positive integer $n$, let $E_n(g)$ be the subgroup generated by all commutators $[...[[x,g],g],\dots ,g]$ over $x\in G$, where $g$ is repeated $n$ times. We prove that if $G$ is a profinite group…

Given a group $G$, we write $g^G$ for the conjugacy class of $G$ containing the element $g$. A theorem of B. H. Neumann states that if $G$ is a group in which all conjugacy classes are finite with bounded size, then the commutator subgroup…

For a finite group $G$ and complex character $\chi\in\mathrm{Irr}(G)$ that restricts irreducibly to a normal subgroup $N\vartriangleleft G,$ we prove a theorem about Clifford correspondences between the characters of subgroups of $G$ that…

Let m, n be positive integers, v a multilinear commutator word and w = v^m. We prove that if G is a residually finite group in which all w-values are n-Engel, then the verbal subgroup w(G) is locally nilpotent. We also examine the question…

Let $q$ be a prime. Let $G$ be a residually finite group satisfying an identity. Suppose that for every $x \in G$ there exists a $q$-power $m=m(x)$ such that the element $x^m$ is a bounded Engel element. We prove that $G$ is locally…

Let $\rho\colon G\to \mathrm{GL}_2(K)$ be a continuous representation of a compact group $G$ over a complete discretely valued field $K$, with ring of integers $\mathcal O$ and uniformiser $\pi$. We prove that $\operatorname{tr}\rho$ is…

Recently, a strong exponential character bound has been established in [3] for all elements $g \in \mathbf{G}^F$ of a finite reductive group $\mathbf{G}^F$ which satisfy the condition that the centraliser $C_{\mathbf{G}}(g)$ is contained in…

We obtain an adaptation of Dade's Conjecture and Sp\"ath's Character Triple Conjecture to unipotent characters of simple, simply connected finite reductive groups of type $\bf{A}$, $\bf{B}$ and $\bf{C}$. In particular, this gives a precise…

We deal with the following conjecture. If w is a group word and G is a finite group in which any nilpotent subgroup generated by w-values has exponent dividing e, then the exponent of the verbal subgroup w(G) is bounded in terms of e and w…

Given a principal fibre bundle with structure group $S$, and a fibre transitive Lie group $G$ of automorphisms thereon, Wang's theorem identifies the invariant connections with certain linear maps $\psi\colon \mathfrak{g}\rightarrow…

We give a general formula for the equivariant complex $K$-theory $K_G^*(V)$ of a finite dimensional real linear space $V$ equipped with a linear action of a compact group $G$ in terms of the representation theory of a certain double cover…

Let m,n be positive integers, v a multilinear commutator word and w=v^m. We prove that if G is an orderable group in which all w-values are n-Engel, then the verbal subgroup v(G) is locally nilpotent. We also show that in the particular…

Let $K$ be a totally real number field of degree $r=[K:\mathbb{Q}]$ and let $p$ be an odd rational prime. Let $K_{\infty}$ denote the cyclotomic $\mathbb{Z}_{p}$-extension of $K$ and let $L_{\infty}$ be a finite extension of $K_{\infty}$,…

Let $\Delta\colon G \to \mathrm{GL}(n, K)$ be an absolutely irreducible representation of an arbitrary group $G$ over an arbitrary field $K$; let $\chi\colon G \to K\colon g \mapsto \mathrm{tr}(\Delta(g))$ be its character. In this paper,…

Given a group $G$, we write $x^G$ for the conjugacy class of $G$ containing the element $x$. A famous theorem of B. H. Neumann states that if $G$ is a group in which all conjugacy classes are finite with bounded size, then the derived group…

Let $\chi$ be a Dirichlet character modulo $p$, a prime. In applications, one often needs estimates for short sums involving $\chi$. One such estimate is the family of bounds known as \emph{Burgess' bound}. In this paper, we explore several…
