Let X = S \oplus G, where S is a countable abelian semigroup and G is a countably infinite abelian group such that {2g : g in G} is infinite. Let pi: X \to G be the projection map defined by pi(s,g) = g for all x =(s,g) in X. Let f:X \to…

Suppose that G is an abelian group, A is a finite subset of G with |A+A|< K|A| and eta in (0,1] is a parameter. Our main result is that there is a set L such that |A cap Span(L)| > K^{-O_eta(1)}|A| and |L| = O(K^eta log |A|). We include an…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $\varphi(G)=|\{a\in G \mid o(a)=\exp(G)\}|$, where $o(a)$ denotes the order of $a$ in $G$ and $\exp(G)$ denotes the exponent of $G$. Under a natural hypothesis, in this note we determine the groups $G$ such…

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…

Let $q$ be a prime and $A$ an elementary abelian group of order at least $q^3$ acting by automorphisms on a finite $q'$-group $G$. It is proved that if $|\gamma_{\infty}(C_{G}(a))|\leq m$ for any $a\in A^{\#}$, then the order of…

Let $G$ be an abelian group of bounded exponent and $A \subseteq G$. We show that if the collection of translates of $A$ has VC dimension at most $d$, then for every $\epsilon>0$ there is a subgroup $H$ of $G$ of index at most…

In an abelian group G, a more sums than differences (MSTD) set is a subset A of G such that |A+A|>|A-A|. We provide asymptotics for the number of MSTD sets in finite abelian groups, extending previous results of Nathanson. The proof…

Let $\Gamma$ be an abelian group and $g \geq h \geq 2$ be integers. A set $A \subset \Gamma$ is a $C_h[g]$-set if given any set $X \subset \Gamma$ with $|X| = k$, and any set $\{ k_1 , \dots , k_g \} \subset \Gamma$, at least one of the…

Given a faithful finite-dimensional representation $V$ of a finite group $G$ over any field $\mathbb{F}$, we show that any irreducible ${\mathbb{F}}G$-module $W$ appears, as a submodule or a quotient, in $\mathrm{Sym}^m(V)$ for some integer…

Given an inverse semigroup $G_0$ of bounded type, we show, along with some other assumptions, that if the set of incompressible elements of $G_0$ is finite, then any finitely generated subgroup $G$ of the topological full group…

In this paper, we obtain a new proof result of Shlyakhtenko which states that if $G$ is a sofic, finitely presented group with vanishing first $\ell^2$-Betti number, then $L(G)$ is strongly 1-bounded. Our proof of this result adapts and…

We establish lower bounds for the $p$-divisibility of the quantity $\#\operatorname{Hom}(G,GL_n(\mathbb{F}_q))$, the number of homomorphisms from $G$ to a general linear group, where $G$ is an Abelian $p$-group. This is in analogy to the…

We prove that the set of all orders of finite algebras in the groupoid variety of anti-rectangular Abel Grassmann bands consists of all powers of four. We also prove that any groupoid anti-isomorphic to a finite or countable…

Let $W$ denote the $n$-dimensional affine space over the finite field $\mathbb F_q$. We prove here a Bollob\'as-type upper bound in the case of the set of affine subspaces. We give a construction of a pair of families of affine subspaces,…

Let $S$ be a semiabelian variety over an algebraically closed field, and let $X$ be an irreducible subvariety not contained in a coset of a proper algebraic subgroup of $S$. We show that the number of irreducible components of $[n]^{-1}(X)$…

We study limit models in the class of abelian groups with the subgroup relation and in the class of torsion-free abelian groups with the pure subgroup relation. We show: $\textbf{Theorem}$ (1) If $G$ is a limit model of cardinality…

We discuss two conjectures. (I) For each x_1,...,x_n \in R (C) there exist y_1,...,y_n \in R (C) such that \forall i \in {1,...,n} |y_i| \leq 2^{2^{n-2}} \forall i \in {1,...,n} (x_i=1 \Rightarrow y_i=1) \forall i,j,k \in {1,...,n}…
