We say that a finite almost simple $G$ with socle $S$ is admissible (with respect to the spectrum) if $G$ and $S$ have the same sets of orders of elements. Let $L$ be a finite simple linear or unitary group of dimension at least three over…

We argue that in the general relativistic calculation of planetary orbits, the choice of a reference frame which is an obligatory condition in the Newtonian approach is replaced by an appropriate boundary condition on the solution of…

In this paper we consider two functions related to the arithmetic and geometric means of element orders of a finite group, showing that certain lower bounds on such functions strongly affect the group structure. In particular, for every…

Based on Propostion 6 of his Principia, Newton's geometrical derivation in Propositions 10 and 11 for the radial dependence of the two central forces that lead to elliptical orbits is notoriously difficult. An alternate and more transparent…

In this report we summarize this work, all finite simple groups $G$ can determined uniformly using their orders $|G|$ and the set $\pi_e(G)$ of their element orders.

A solution is proposed for the problem of composition of ordinary generating functions. A new class of functions that provides a composition of ordinary generating functions is introduced; main theorems are presented; compositae are written…

We consider a general concept of composition and decomposition of objects, and discuss a few natural properties one may expect from a reasonable choice thereof. It will be demonstrated how this leads to multiplication and co- multiplication…

Recent results for rotations expressed as polynomials of spin matrices are derived here by elementary differential equation methods. Structural features of the results are then examined in the framework of biorthogonal systems, to obtain an…

The following theorem is proved: Let $G$ be a finite group and $\pi_e(G)$ be the set of element orders in $G$. If $\pi_e(G) \cap \{2\}=\emptyset$; or $\pi_e(G) \cap \{3, 4\}=\emptyset$; or $\pi_e(G) \cap \{3,5\}=\emptyset$, then $G$ is…

A formula for the apparent rotation of a relativistically moving object has been known for some time, but it seems not to have been realized that this formula has a very pretty interpretation in terms of formal group laws. Version 2…

Because of its apparent complexity, the discussion of Wigner rotation is usually reduced to the study of Thomas precession, which is too specific a case to allow a deep understanding of boost composition. However, by simple arguments and…

Graph compositions generalize both integer compositions and partitions of a finite set. We develop formulas, generating functions and recurrence relations for composition counting functions for several families of graphs.

We formulate a notion of "geometric reductivity" in an abstract categorical setting which we refer to as adequacy. The main theorem states that the adequacy condition implies that the ring of invariants is finitely generated. This result…

We consider rotations on the torus $\mathbb{T}^2$, and we classify them with respect to the complexity functions. In dimension one, a minimal rotation can be coded by a sturmian word. A sturmian word has complexity $n+1$ by the…
