The study of pattern containment and avoidance for linear permutations is a well-established area of enumerative combinatorics. A cyclic permutation is the set of all rotations of a linear permutation. Callan initiated the study of…

Diaconis and Graham studied a measure of distance from the identity in the symmetric group called total displacement and showed that it is bounded below by the sum of length and reflection length. They asked for a characterization of the…

The structure of order ideals in the Bruhat order for the symmetric group is elucidated via permutation patterns. A method for determining non-isomorphic principal order ideals is described and applied for small lengths. The permutations…

Let $m$ be an integer greater than three and $\ell$ be an odd prime. In this paper, we prove that at least one of the following groups: $\mbox{P}\Omega^\pm_{2m}(\mathbb{F}_{\ell^s})$, $\mbox{PSO}^\pm_{2m}(\mathbb{F}_{\ell^s})$,…

For a finite group $G$, we introduce a generalization of norm relations in the group algebra $\mathbb Q[G]$. We give necessary and sufficient criteria for the existence of such relations and apply them to obtain relations between the…

Let $\mathbb{F}_2^\omega$ denote the countably infinite dimensional vector space over the two element field and $\operatorname{GL}(\omega, 2)$ its automorphism group. Moreover, let $\operatorname{Sym}(\mathbb{F}_2^\omega)$ denote the…

In this article, we introduce a relation including ideals of an evolution algebra and hereditary subsets of vertices of its associated graph and establish some properties among them. This relation allows us to determine maximal ideals and…

A skew-morphism of a finite group $G$ is a permutation $\s$ on $G$ fixing the identity element, and for which there exists an integer function $\pi$ on $G$ such that $\s(xy)=\s(x)\s^{\pi(x)}(y)$ for all $x,y\in G$. It has been known that…

Fix a degree $d$ projective curve $X \subset \mathbb{P}^r$ over an algebraically closed field $K$. Let $U \subset (\mathbb{P}^r)^*$ be a dense open subvariety such that every hyperplane $H \in U$ intersects $X$ in $d$ smooth points. Varying…

This is a presentation of recent work on quantum permutation groups, complex Hadamard matrices, and the connections between them. A long list of problems is included. We include as well some conjectural statements, about matrix models.

We investigate the Galois coverings of piecewise algebras and more particularly their behaviour under derived equivalences. Under a technical assumption which is satisfied if the algebra is derived equivalent to a hereditary algebra, we…

Given a finite nonabelian semisimple group $G$, we describe those groups that have the same holomorph as $G$, that is, those regular subgroups $N\simeq G$ of $S(G)$, the group of permutations on the set $G$, such that…

We consider an experimental design problem for permutations: given a fixed set $X$, and an integer $t$, construct a list $L$ of permutations of $X$ such that every ordered $t$-tuple of distinct elements of $X$ occurs as a consecutive…

The Gauss decompositions of the quantum groups, related to classical Lie groups and supergroups are considered by the elementary algebraic and $R$-matrix methods. The commutation relations between new basis generators (which are introduced…

It is well known that the Galois group of an extension puts constraints on the structure of the relative ideal class groups. Using only basic parts of the theory of group representations, we give a unified approach to such results.

Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, $F$ be an algebraically closed extension of $k$ of transcendence degree one, and $G$ be the group of automorphisms over $k$ of the field $F$. The purpose of this note is to…

Intertwining relations for $N$-particle Calogero-like models with internal degrees of freedom are investigated. Starting from the well known Dunkl-Polychronakos operators, we construct new kind of local (without exchange operation)…

When dealing with symmetry properties of mathematical objects, one of the fundamental questions is to determine their full automorphism group. In this paper this question is considered in the context of even/odd permutations dichotomy. More…
