In this paper, we determine the finite groups with a Sylow $r$-subgroup contained in a unique maximal subgroup. The proof involves a reduction to almost simple groups, and our main theorem extends earlier work of Aschbacher in the special…

We describe here the lower garland of some lattices of intermediate subgroups in linear groups. The results are applied to the case of subgroup lattices in general and special linear groups over a class of rings, containing the group of…

If ZFC is consistent, then each of the following are consistent with ZFC + 2^{{aleph_0}}= aleph_2 : 1.) X subseteq R is of strong measure zero iff |X| <= aleph_1 + there is a generalized Sierpinski set. 2.) The union of aleph_1 many strong…

We classify all of the groups with twelve or fewer subgroups. This paper is the proof of the entries in a submission to the Online Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences.

Let $k$ be a nonperfect separably closed field. Let $G$ be a connected reductive algebraic group defined over $k$. We study rationality problems for Serre's notion of complete reducibility of subgroups of $G$. In particular, we present the…

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…

We prove that every function $f:\mathbb{R}^n\to \mathbb{R}$ satisfies that the image of the set of critical points at which the function $f$ has Taylor expansions of order $n-1$ and non-empty subdifferentials of order $n$ is a Lebesgue-null…

Ge asked the question whether $LF_{\infty}$ can be embedded into $LF_2$ as a maximal subfactor. We answer it affirmatively by three different approaches, all containing the same key ingredient: the existence of maximal subgroups with…

We introduce the notion of relative pseudocoefficient for relative discrete series of real spherical homogeneous spaces of reductive groups. We prove that such relative pseudocoefficient does not exist for semisimple symmetric spaces of…

For a finite group $G$, let $\sigma(G)$ be the number of subgroups of $G$ and $\sigma_\iota(G)$ the number of isomorphism types of subgroups of $G$. Let $L=L_r(p^e)$ denote a simple group of Lie type, rank $r$, over a field of order $p^e$…

Using an invariant modification of Jensen's "minimal $\varPi^1_2$ singleton" forcing, we define a model of ZFC, in which, for a given $n\ge2$, there exists a lightface $\varPi^1_n$ unordered pair of non-OD (hence, OD-indiscernible)…

Given a positive integer k, we investigate the class of numerical semigroups verifying the property that every two subsequent non gaps, smaller than the conductor, are spaced by at least k. These semigroups will be called k-sparse and…

A set of reals A is called perfectly meager if A \cap P is meager in P, for every perfect set P. Marczewski asked if the product of perfectly meager sets is perfectly meager. In the paper it is shown that it is consistent that the answer to…

We describe finite soluble groups in which every $n$-maximal subgroup is $\mathfrak F$-subnormal.

We prove the conjugacy of Sylow $p$-subgroups of linear pseudofinite groups under the assumption of the existence of a finite Sylow $p$-subgroup. We also give an example of a linear pseudofinite group with non-conjugate Sylow $2$-subgroups.

We study uniform stability of discrete groups, Lie groups and Lie algebras in the rank metric, and the connections between uniform stability of these objects. We prove that semisimple Lie algebras are far from being flexibly…

We show that the set of Misiurewicz maps has Lebesgue measure zero in the space of rational functions for any fixed degree greater than or equal to 2 (generalising the earlier version math.DS/0701382).

We show that on an arbitrary finitely generated non virtually solvable linear group, any two independent random walks will eventually generate a free subgroup. In fact, this will hold for an exponential number of independent random walks.

Let $G$ be a locally compact group. A random closed subgroup with conjugation-invariant law is called an {\em invariant random subgroup} or IRS for short. We show that each nonabelian free group has a large "zoo" of IRS's. This contrasts…

We introduce two new classes of special subsets of the real line: the class of perfectly null sets and the class of sets which are perfectly null in the transitive sense. These classes may play the role of duals to the corresponding classes…
