Given a natural number n and a number field K, we show the existence of an integer \ell_0 such that for any prime number \ell\geq \ell_0, there exists a finite extension F/K, unramified in all places above \ell, together with a principally…
Let $k$ be a number field, $\mathbf{G}$ an algebraic group defined over $k$, and $\mathbf{G}(k)$ the group of $k$-rational points in $\mathbf{G}.$ We determine the set of functions on $\mathbf{G}(k)$ which are of positive type and…
Let $k$ be a field and let $G$ be an affine algebraic group over $k$. Call a $G$-torsor weakly versal for a class of $k$-schemes $\cal C$ if it specializes to every $G$-torsor over a scheme in $\cal C$. A recent result of the first author,…
It is well known that if $G$ is a group and $H$ is a normal subgroup of $G$ of finite index $k$, then $x^k \in H$ for every $x \in G$. We examine finite groups $G$ with the property that $x^k \in H$ for every subgroup $H$ of $G$, where $k$…
Let $G=G_1\ast\dots\ast G_k\ast F$ be a countable group which splits as a free product, where all groups $G_i$ are freely indecomposable and not isomorphic to $\mathbb{Z}$, and $F$ is a finitely generated free group. If for all…
The main theorem of Galois theory states that there are no finite group-subgroup pairs with the same invariants. On the other hand, if we consider complex linear reductive groups instead of finite groups, the analogous statement is no…
For an Abelian group $G$, any homomorphism $\mu\colon G\otimes G\rightarrow G$ is called a \textsf{multiplication} on $G$. The set $\text{Mult}\,G$ of all multiplications on an Abelian group $G$ itself is an Abelian group with respect to…
We study multigraphs whose edge-sets are the union of three perfect matchings, $M_1$, $M_2$, and $M_3$. Given such a graph $G$ and any $a_1,a_2,a_3\in \mathbb{N}$ with $a_1+a_2+a_3\leq n-2$, we show there exists a matching $M$ of $G$ with…
The main result of the paper is the following theorem. Let $q$ be a prime, $n$ a positive integer and $A$ an elementary abelian group of order $q^2$. Suppose that $A$ acts coprimely on a finite group $G$ and assume that for each $a\in…
It is established that for every pair of additive forms $f=\sum_{i=1}^s a_i x_i^k, g=\sum_{i=1}^s b_i x_i^k$ of degree $k$ in $s>2k^2$ variables the equations $f=g=0$ have a non-trivial $p$-adic solution for all odd primes $p$.
For a finite group $G$ the co-prime graph $\Gamma(G)$ is defined as a graph with vertex set $G$ in which two distinct vertices $x$ and $y$ are adjacent if and only if $gcd(o(x),o(y))=1$ where $o(x)$ and $o(y)$ denote the orders of the…
We study the postcritically finite non-polynomial map $f(x)=\frac{1}{(x-1)^2}$ over a number field $k$ and prove various results about the geometric $G^{\text{geom}}(f)$ and arithmetic $G^{\text{arith}}(f)$ iterated monodromy groups of $f$.…
Let $G$ be a finite group. Let $K/k$ be a Galois extension of number fields with Galois group isomorphic to $G$, and let $C \subseteq \mathrm{Gal}(K/k) \simeq G$ be a conjugacy invariant subset. It is well known that there exists an…
This note proves the following inequality: if $n=3k$ for some positive integer $k$, then for any $n$ positive definite matrices $A_1,A_2,\cdots,A_n$, \begin{equation} \frac{1}{n^3}\Big\|\sum_{j_1,j_2,j_3=1}^{n}A_{j_1}A_{j_2}A_{j_3}\Big\|…
A graph is called equimatchable if all of its maximal matchings have the same size. Due to Eiben and Kotrb\v{c}\'{i}k,, any connected graph with odd order and independence number $\alpha(G)$ at most $2$ is equimatchable. Akbari et al.…
Let $G$ be an almost simple group. We prove that if $x \in G$ has prime order $p \ge 5$, then there exists an involution $y$ such that $<x,y>$ is not solvable. Also, if $x$ is an involution then there exist three conjugates of $x$ that…
For a finite group $G$, let ${\rm AD}(G)$ denote the Fourier norm of the antidiagonal in $G\times G$. It was shown recently by the author (IMRN, 2023) that ${\rm AD}(G)$ coincides with the amenability constant of the Fourier algebra of $G$,…
We prove that non-abelian free groups of finite rank at least 3 or of countable rank are not $\forall$-homogeneous. We answer three open questions from Kharlampovich, Myasnikov, and Sklinos regarding whether free groups, finitely generated…
For each integer $n\ge 2$, we identify new infinite families of monogenic trinomials $f(x)=x^n+Ax^m+B$ with non-squarefree discriminant, many of which have small Galois group. These families are thus different from many previous…
A group of permutations G of a set V is k-distinguishable if there exists a partition of V into k parts such that only the identity permutation in G fixes setwise all of the cells of the partition. The least cardinal number k such that…
