Let $H$ be a finite quasisimple classical group, i.e. $H$ is perfect and $S:=H/Z(H)$ is a finite simple classical group. We prove in this paper that, excluding the cases when the simple group $S$ has a very exceptional Schur multiplier such…

We study Brauer's long-standing $k(B)$-conjecture on the number of characters in $p$-blocks for finite quasi-simple groups and show that their blocks do not occur as a minimal counterexample for $p\ge5$ nor in the case of abelian defect.…

We prove for residually finite groups the following long standing conjecture: the number of twisted conjugacy classes of an automorphism of a finitely generated group is equal (if it is finite) to the number of finite dimensional…

The Alperin weight conjecture was reduced to simple groups by the work of Navarro, Tiep and Sp\"ath. To prove Alperin weight conjecture, it suffices to show that all finite non-abelian simple groups are BAW-good. We reduce the verification…

A group $G$ is said to be factorized into subsets $A_1, A_2, \ldots, A_s\subseteq G$ if every element $g$ in $G$ can be uniquely represented as $g=g_1g_2\ldots g_s$, where $g_i\in A_i$, $i=1,2,\ldots,s$. We consider the following…

Let $K/\mathbb{Q}$ be a real cyclic extension of degree divisible by $p$. We analyze the {\it statement} of the "Real Abelian Main Conjecture", for the $p$-class group $\mathcal{H}_K$ of $K$, in this non semi-simple case. The classical {\it…

We confirm the Jamneshan-Tao conjecture for finite abelian groups of rank at most a fixed integer $R$ (i.e. finite abelian groups generated by at most $R$ elements), by proving an inverse theorem for 1-bounded functions of non-trivial…

In a recent paper, Gabriel Navarro and Pham Huu Tiep show that the so-called Alperin Weight Conjecture can be verified via the Classification of the Finite Simple Groups, provided any simple group fulfills a very precise list of conditions.…

We prove that all finitely generated fully residually free groups (limit groups) have a sequence of finite dimensional unitary representations that `strongly converge' to the regular representation of the group. The corresponding statement…

Under the assumption that a defining graph of a Coxeter group admits only subsequent elementary twists in $\mathbb{Z}_2$ or dihedral groups and is of type $\mathrm{FC}$, we prove Bernhard M\"uhlherr's Twist Conjecture

The Casas-Alvero conjecture states: if a complex univariate polynomial has a common root with each of its derivatives, then it has a unique root. We show that hypothetical counterexamples must have at least 5 different roots. The first case…

Given two hyperbolic curves over p-adic local fields, the absolute anabelian conjecture claims that any isomorphism between their \'etale fundamental group comes from an isomorphism of schemes. This conjecture was proven by S. Mochizuki for…

We complete the proof of Oka's conjecture on the Alexander polynomial of an irreducible plane sextic. We also calculate the fundamental groups of irreducible sextics with a singular point adjacent to $J_{10}$.

L. Babai has shown that a faithful permutation representation of a nonsplit extension of a group by an alternating group $A_k$ must have degree at least $k^2(\frac{1}{2}-o(1))$, and has asked how sharp this lower bound is. We prove that…

Shimura proved that each principally polarized abelian variety over $\mathbf{C}$ admits a unique factorization into irreducible principally polarized abelian varieties. We give an exposition of his result, and generalize to an arbitrary…

Let $p$ be a prime. For $p=2$, the fields of values of the complex irreducible characters of finite groups whose degrees are not divisible by $p$ have been classified; for odd primes $p$, a conjectural classification has been proposed. In…

Let $G$ be an arbitrary finite group and fix a prime number $p$. The McKay conjecture asserts that $G$ and the normalizer in $G$ of a Sylow $p$-subgroup have equal numbers of irreducible characters with degrees not divisible by $p$. The…

We show that a tensor product of irreducible, finite dimensional representations of a simple Lie algebra over a field of characteristic zero, determines the individual constituents uniquely. This is analogous to the uniqueness of prime…

We determine the dual modules of all irreducible modules of alternating groups over fields of characteristic 2.

We prove that if $\pi$ is a recursive set of primes, then pointlike sets are decidable for the pseudovariety of semigroups whose subgroups are $\pi$-groups. In particular, when $\pi$ is the empty set, we obtain Henckell's decidability of…
