We describe the main questions connected to torsion subgroups in the unit group of integral group rings of finite groups and algorithmic methods to attack these questions. We then prove the Zassenhaus Conjecture for Amitsur groups and prove…

The goal of the present paper is to push forward the frontiers of computations on Farrell-Tate cohomology for arithmetic groups. The conjugacy classification of cyclic subgroups is reduced to the classification of modules of group rings…

Let $\mathbb{F}G$ denote the group algebra of the group $G$ over the field $\mathbb{F}$ with $char(\mathbb{F})\neq 2$. Given both a homomorphism $\sigma:G\rightarrow \{\pm1\}$ and a group involution $\ast: G\rightarrow G$, an oriented…

For normal subgoups $R$ and $S$ of a free group $F$, an identification of the subgroup $F\cap (1+\mathfrak r\mathfrak f\mathfrak s)$ is derived, and it is shown that the the quotient $\frac{F\cap (1+\mathfrak r\mathfrak f\mathfrak…

The notion of normal quantum subgroup introduced in algebraic context by Parshall and Wang when applied to compact quantum groups is shown to be equivalent to the notion of normal quantum subgroup introduced by the author. As applications,…

We propose a general quantum Hamiltonian formalism of a renormalization group (RG) flow with an emphasis on generalized symmetry by interpreting the elementary relationship between homomorphism, quotient ring, and projection. In our…

Let $G$ be a finite group, $\Z G$ the integral group ring of $G$ and $\U(\Z G)$ the group of units of $\Z G$. The Congruence Subgroup Problem for $\U(\Z G)$ is the problem of deciding if every subgroup of finite index of $\U(\Z G)$ contains…

This paper is devoted to the study of a natural group topology on the fundamental group which remembers local properties of spaces forgotten by covering space theory and weak homotopy type. It is known that viewing the fundamental group as…

The article gives the second part of the treatise on Regular Algebraic $K$-theory (Sections V & VI) of the author. Regular algebraic $K$-theory for groups is a homology theory for discrete groups closely connected to (but different from)…

Let G be a real or complex linear algebraic reductive group. Let H and F be reductive subgroups. We study the natural H action on G/F. The main theorem of this note shows that generic H orbits are closed. This theorem is then applied to…

This paper is centered around the classical problem of extracting properties of a finite group $G$ from the ring isomorphism class of its integral group ring $\mathbb{Z} G$. This problem is considered via describing the unit group…

An integral homology theory on the category of undirected reflexive graphs was constructed in [2]. A geometrical method to understand behaviors of $1$- and $2$-simplices under differential maps of the theory was developed in [3] and led us…

Let $KG$ be the group ring of a group $G$ over a commutative ring $K$ with unity. The rings $KG$ are described for which $xx^\sigma=x^\sigma x$ for all $x=\sum_{g\in G}\alpha_gg\in KG$, where \quad $x\mapsto x^\sigma=~\sum_{g\in…

We study $(\sigma,\tau)$-derivations of a group ring $RG$ where $G$ is a group with center having finite index in $G$ and $R$ is a semiprime ring with $1$ such that either $R$ has no torsion elements or that if $R$ has $p$-torsion elements,…

We use algebraic techniques to study homological filling functions of groups and their subgroups. If $G$ is a group admitting a finite $(n+1)$--dimensional $K(G,1)$ and $H \leq G$ is of type $F_{n+1}$, then the $n^{th}$--homological filling…

Similarly to how the classical group ring isomorphism problem asks, for a commutative ring $R$, which information about a finite group $G$ is encoded in the group ring $RG$, the twisted group ring isomorphism problem asks which information…

We show that the intersection of three subgroups in a free group is related to the computation of the third homotopy group $\pi_3$. This generalizes a result of Gutierrez-Ratcliffe who relate the intersection of two subgroups with the…

Let $\mathfrak F$ be a formation and let $G$ be a group. A subgroup $H$ of $G$ is $\mathrm{K}\mathfrak F$-subnormal (submodular) in $G$ if there is a subgroup chain $H=H_0\le \ H_1 \le \ \ldots \le H_i \leq H_{i+1}\le \ldots \le \ H_n=G$…

Every two-sided ideal $\mathfrak a$ in the integral group ring $\mathbb Z[G] $ of a group $G$ determines a normal subgroup $G \cap (1 + \mathfrak a)$ of $G$. In this paper certain problems related to the identification of such subgroups,…
