We obtain some general restrictions on the continuous endomorphisms of a profinite group G under the assumption that G has only finitely many open subgroups of each index (an assumption which automatically holds, for instance, if G is…
We identify the simple algebraic groups over number fields that are, in a suitable sense, determined by their finite adele points. Assuming CSP and Grothendieck rigidity, our results essentially characterize higher rank arithmetic groups…
We introduce the notion of finite stature of a family $\{H_i\}$ of subgroups of a group $G$. We investigate the separability of subgroups of a group $G$ that splits as a graph of hyperbolic special groups with quasiconvex edge groups. We…
We generalize two of our previous results on abelian definable groups in $p$-adically closed fields to the non-abelian case. First, we show that if $G$ is a definable group that is not definably compact, then $G$ has a one-dimensional…
Let $ G $ be a finite group and $ \chi \in \mathrm{Irr}(G) $. Define $ \mathrm{cv}(G)=\{\chi(g)\mid \chi \in \mathrm{Irr}(G), g\in G \} $, $ \mathrm{cv}(\chi)=\{\chi(g)\mid g\in G \} $ and denote $ \mathrm{dl}(G) $ by the derived length of…
We prove a natural generalization of Szep's conjecture. Given an almost simple group $G$ with socle not isomorphic to an orthogonal group having Witt defect zero, we classify all possible group elements $x,y\in G\setminus\{1\}$ with $G={\bf…
Let G be an abelian group. For a subset A of G, Cyc(A) denotes the set of all elements x of G such that the cyclic subgroup generated by x is contained in A, and G is said to have the small subgroup generating property (abbreviated to SSGP)…
We carry out a study of groups $G$ in which the index of any infinite subgroup is finite. We call them restricted-finite groups and characterize finitely generated not torsion restricted-finite groups. We show that every infinite…
Craw and Ishii proved that for a finite abelian group G in SL_3(C) every (projective) relative minimal model of C^3/G is isomorphic to the fine moduli space of \theta-stable G-constellations for some GIT parameter \theta. In this article,…
A semigroup is completely simple if it has no proper ideals and contains a primitive idempotent. We say that a completely simple semigroup $S$ is a homogeneous completely simple semigroup if any isomorphism between finitely generated…
Let $k$ be a nonperfect field of characteristic $2$. Let $G$ be a $k$-split simple algebraic group of type $E_6$ (or $G_2$) defined over $k$. In this paper, we present the first examples of nonabelian non-$G$-completely reducible…
We show that a compact open subgroup $H$ of a simple algebraic $p$-adic group $G$ is self-similar if and only if it is isotropic.
Let $ x $ be an element of a finite group $ G $ and denote the order of $ x $ by $ \mathrm{ord}(x) $. We consider a finite group $ G $ such that $ \gcd(\mathrm{ord}(x),\mathrm{ord}(y))\leqslant 2 $ for any two vanishing elements $ x $ and $…
We show that if $H$ is an almost normal subgroup of $G$ such that both $H$ and $G$ are of type $VFP$ and vcd($G$) = vcd($H$) + 1, then $G$ is the fundamental group of a graph of groups in which all vertex and edge groups are commensurable…
In this short note, it is proved that both the number of primitive characters and the number of quasi-primitive characters in a finite group $G$ is divisible by $|G:G'|$, where $G'$ is the derived subgroup of $G$.
Let $G$ be a finite group, and let ${\rm{cd}}(G)$ denote the set of degrees of the irreducible complex characters of $G$. Define then the character degree graph $\Delta(G)$ as the (simple undirected) graph whose vertices are the prime…
A finite group G is called Schur, if every Schur ring over G is associated in a natural way with a regular subgroup of Sym(G) that is isomorphic to G. We prove that any nonabelian Schur group G is metabelian and the number of distinct prime…
For every $m\geq 2$ we produce an example of a non-hyperbolic finitely presented subgroup $H < G$ of a hyperbolic group $G$, which is the kernel of a surjective homomorphism $\phi: G\to \mathbb{Z}^m$. The examples we produce are of…
Let G be a finite group. Denoting by cd(G) the set of degrees of the irreducible complex characters of G, we consider the character degree graph of G: this is the (simple undirected) graph whose vertices are the prime divisors of the…
We prove the following extension of Tits' simplicity theorem. Let $k$ be an infinite field, $G$ an algebraic group defined and quasi-simple over $k,$ and $G(k)$ the group of $k$-rational points of $G.$ Let $G(k)^+$ be the subgroup of $G(k)$…
