Let $p$ be a prime and let $\mathbb{C}$ be the complex field. We explicitly classify the finite solvable irreducible monomial subgroups of $\mathrm{GL}(p,\mathbb{C})$ up to conjugacy. That is, we give a complete and irredundant list of…

In this paper, we present a new method to construct solvable groups with derived length four and four character degrees. We then use this method to present a number of new families of groups with derived length four and four character…

Let $G$ be a finite group of order divisible by a prime $p$. The number of $p$-regular and $p'$-regular conjugacy classes of $G$ is at least $2\sqrt{p-1}$. Also, the number of $p$-rational and $p'$-rational irreducible characters of $G$ is…

We show that substantially more than a quarter of the odd integers of the form $pq$ up to $x$, with $p,q$ both prime, satisfy $p\equiv q\equiv 3 \pmod 4$.

Many open conjectures in the representation theory of finite groups can be studied by reducing them to related questions about quasi-simple groups. In such studies, $p$-radical subgroups typically play a critical role. To classify the…

For odd primes $p$ we consider the factors \[ A(p)=\frac{p-\chi_4(p)}{p+\chi_4(p)}, \qquad \chi_4(p)= \begin{cases} 1,&p\equiv 1\pmod 4, \\ -1,&p\equiv 3\pmod 4, \end{cases} \] and study products of $A(p)$ restricted to unions of residue…

We combine results about Whitehead groups of finite groups with results about genetic bases of finite $p$-groups to compute the Whitehead groups of some metacyclic $p$-groups. Let $C_{p^n}$ denote a cyclic group of order $p^n$ for $p$ an…

The problem of Painleve classification of ordinary differential equations lasting since the end of XIX century saw significant advances for the limited equation order, however not that much for the equations of higher orders. In this work…

The fine abelian group gradings on the simple classical Lie algebras (including D4) over algebraically closed fields of characteristic 0 are determined up to equivalence. This is achieved by assigning certain invariant to such gradings that…

We show that if $A$ is a subset of a group of prime order $p$ such that $|2A|<2.7652|A|$ and $|A|<1.25\cdot10^{-6}p$, then $A$ is contained in an arithmetic progression with at most $|2A|-|A|+1$ terms, and $2A$ contains an arithmetic…

We shall give an explicit upper bound for the smallest prime factor of multiperfect numbers of the form $N=p_1^{\alpha_1}\cdots p_s^{\alpha_s} q_1^{\beta_1}\cdots q_t^{\beta_t}$ with $\beta_1, \ldots, \beta_t$ bounded by a given constant.…

Let $G$ be the simple group ${\rm PSL}(3,2^p)$, where $p$ is a prime number. For any subgroup $H$ of $G$, we compute the M\"obius function of $H$ in the subgroup lattice of $G$. To this aim, we describe the intersections of maximal…

We consider the quotient group $T(G)$ of the multiple holomorph by the holomorph of a finite $p$-group $G$ of class two for an odd prime $p$. By work of the first-named author, we know that $T(G)$ contains a cyclic subgroup of order…

Let $q$ be a prime. We classify the odd primes $p\neq q$ such that the equation $x^2\equiv q\pmod{p}$ has a solution, concretely, we find a subgroup $\mathbb{L}_{4q}$ of the multiplicative group $\mathbb{U}_{4q}$ of integers relatively…

We present an improved algorithm for tabulating class groups of imaginary quadratic fields of bounded discriminant. Our method uses classical class number formulas involving theta-series to compute the group orders unconditionally for all…

This is the second one in a series of papers classifying the factorizations of almost simple groups with nonsolvable factors. In this paper we deal with almost simple unitary groups.

In this paper we established a class of optimal fourth-order methods which is obtained by existing third-order method for solving nonlinear equations for simple roots by using weight functions. Some physical examples are given to illustrate…

Let $\mathcal{P}$ denote the set of all primes, and let $\underline\delta(P)$ denote the relative lower density of a subset $P$ in $\mathcal{P}$. Suppose that $P_1, P_2, P_3, P_4$ are four subsets of primes with…

In this paper, I show that if $p$ is an odd prime, and if $P$ is a finite $p$-group, then there exists an exact sequence of abelian groups $$0\to T(P)\to D(P)\to\lproj{P}\to H^1\big(\apdeux(P),\Z\big)^{(P)},$$ where $D(P)$ is the Dade group…

We propose and study a variation of the classical isomorphism problem for group rings in the context of projective representations. We formulate several weaker conditions following from our notion and give all logical connections between…
