Let $k$ be a perfect field of characteristic $p \geq 3$. We classify $p$-divisible groups over regular local rings of the form $W(k)[[t_1,...,t_r,u]]/(u^e+pb_{e-1}u^{e-1}+...+pb_1u+pb_0)$, where $b_0,...,b_{e-1}\in W(k)[[t_1,...,t_r]]$ and…

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…

The pedal of a curve in the Euclidean plane is a classical subject which has a singular point at the inflection point of the original curve. The primitive of a curve is a curve given by the inverse construction for making the pedal. We…

In this paper we will study integrability of distributions whose primitives are left regulated functions and locally or globally integrable in the Henstock--Kurzweil, Lebesgue or Riemann sense. Corresponding spaces of distributions and…

By finite quantum groups we mean Lusztig's finite-dimensional pointed Hopf algebras called quantum Frobenius Kernels [9, 10], and their natural generalizations due to Andruskiewitsch and Schneider [2, 3]. For a Hopf algebra $H$ in a special…

In this paper we study prime graphs of finite groups. The prime graph of a finite group $G$, also known as the Gruenberg-Kegel graph, is the graph with vertex set {primes dividing $|G|$} and an edge $p$-$q$ if and only if there exists an…

Primitive equivalence of graphs and matrices was used by Enomoto, Fujii and Watatani to classify Cuntz-Krieger algebras of 3x3 irreducible matrices. In this paper it is shown that the definition of primitive equivalence can be simplified…

We determine all finite primitive groups that are automorphism groups of edge-transitive hypergraphs. This gives an answer to a problem proposed by Babai and Cameron

Let F(z) be a rational function in Q(z) of degree at least 2 with F(0) = 0 and such that F does not vanish to order d at 0. Let b be a rational number having infinite orbit under iteration of F, and write F^n(b) = A_n/B_n as a fraction in…

A transitive permutation group is semiprimitive if each of its normal subgroups is transitive or semiregular. Interest in this class of groups is motivated by two sources: problems arising in universal algebra related to collapsing monoids…

A number field $K$ is called primitive if $\mathbb Q$ and $K$ are the only subfields of $K$. Let $X$ be a nice curve over $\mathbb Q$ of genus $g$. A point $P$ of degree $d$ on $X$ is called primitive if the field of definition $\mathbb…

We provide an explicit formula for primitive elements in the Hall algebras of nilpotent representations of cyclic quivers.

In 1995, Isaacs, Kantor and Spaltenstein proved that for a finite simple classical group G defined over a field with q elements, and for a prime divisor p of |G| distinct from the characteristic, the proportion of p-singular elements in G…

We obtain upper bounds on the composition length of a finite permutation group in terms of the degree and the number of orbits, and analogous bounds for primitive, quasiprimitive and semiprimitive groups. Similarly, we obtain upper bounds…

Let $P$ be a non-torsion point on an elliptic curve defined over a number field $K$ and consider the sequence $\{B_n\}_{n\in \mathbb{N}}$ of the denominators of $x(nP)$. We prove that every term of the sequence of the $B_n$ has a primitive…

We study the existence of a Zsigmondy bound for a sequence of divisors associated to points on an elliptic curve over a function field. More precisely, let $k$ be an algebraically closed field, let $\mathcal{C}$ be a nonsingular projective…

Some known fixed point theorems for nonexpansive mappings in metric spaces are extended here to the case of primitive uniform spaces. The reasoning presented in the proofs seems to be a natural way to obtain other general results.

A number field $K$ is primitive if $K$ and $\mathbb{Q}$ are the only subextensions of $K$. Let $C$ be a curve defined over $\mathbb{Q}$. We call an algebraic point $P\in C(\overline{\mathbb{Q}})$ primitive if the number field…

By definition primitive and $2$-primitive elements of a finite field extension $\mathbb{F}_{q^n}$ have order $q^n-1$ and $(q^n-1)/2$, respectively. We have already shown that, with minor reservations, there exists a primitive element and a…

An element $\alpha \in \mathbb F_{q^n}$ is \emph{normal} if $\mathcal{B} = \{\alpha, \alpha^q, \ldots, \alpha^{q^{n-1}}\}$ forms a basis of $\mathbb F_{q^n}$ as a vector space over $\mathbb F_{q}$; in this case, $\mathcal{B}$ is a normal…
