We give a general construction for right conjugacy closed loops, using $GL(2,q)$ for $q$ a prime power. Under certain conditions, the loops constructed are simple, giving the first general construction for finite, simple right conjugacy…
Let $p>q$ be odd primes. We classify Bol loops and Bruck loops of order $pq$ up to isotopism. When $q$ does not divide $p^2-1$, the only Bol loop (and hence the only Bruck loop) of order $pq$ is the cyclic group of order $pq$. When $q$…
In this article we classify the left braces of order $p^2q$ where $p,q$ are primes fulfilling $q > p+1$. This classification includes a proof of three conjectures of Guarnieri and Vendramin (\cite[Conjectures 6.2-6.4]{Vendramin_skew})…
We characterize conjugacy classes of isometries of odd prime order in unimodular Z-lattices. This is applied to give a complete classification of odd prime order non-symplectic automorphisms of irreducible holomorphic symplectic manifolds…
Every finite group whose order is divisible by a prime $p$ has at least $2 \sqrt{p-1}$ conjugacy classes.
A classification up to isomorphism of all left braces of order $p^3$, where $p$ is any prime number, is given. To this end, we first classify all the left braces of order $p$ and $p^2$, and then we construct explicitly the hypothesis…
Let $Q$ be a conjugacy closed loop, and $N(Q)$ its nucleus. Then $Z(N(Q))$ contains all associators of elements of $Q$. If in addition $Q$ is diassociative (i.e., an extra loop), then all these associators have order 2. If $Q$ is…
We show that there is an unique connected quandle of order twice an odd prime number greater than 3. It has order 10 and is isomorphic to the conjugacy class of transpositions in the symmetric group of degree 5. This establishes a…
Let $\mathbb{C}$ be the field of complex numbers. Let $k$ be natural number with $k \geq 2$ and let $p$ be a rational prime. In this paper we count the number of conjugacy classes of admissible cyclic subgroups of…
Right Bol loops are loops satisfying the identity $((zx)y)x = z((xy)x)$, and right Bruck loops are right Bol loops satisfying the identity $(xy)^{-1} = x^{-1}y^{-1}$. Let $p$ and $q$ be odd primes such that $p>q$. Advancing the research…
Let $G$ be a finite group and assume $p$ is a prime dividing the order of $G$. Suppose for any such $p$, that every two abelian $p$-subgroups of $G$ of equal order are conjugate. The structure of such a group $G$ has been settled in this…
We classify the conjugacy classes of p-cycles of type D in alternating groups. This finishes the open cases in arXiv:0812.4628. We also determine all the subracks of those conjugacy classes which are not of type D.
We give a complete list of all the 70 class two groups of exponent p (p>2) and order p^k for k<9. For each of these groups the number of conjugacy classes is a polynomial in p, and the order of the automorphism group is a polynomial in p.…
In this article, we study orientably-regular maps of Euler characteristic $-2p^2$ and classify those that admit a group of orientation-preserving automorphisms of order $10p^2$, where $p$ is a prime number. Along the way, we classify all…
We describe all left braces of size 8p for p an odd prime different from 3 or 7 and validate the number given by Bardakov, Neschadim and Yadav. We give a characterization for isomorphism classes of a semidirect product of left braces and…
We classify spherical conjugacy classes in a simple algebraic group over an algebraically closed field of good, odd characteristic.
Automorphic loops are loops in which all inner mappings are automorphisms. This variety of loops includes, for instance, groups and commutative Moufang loops. We study uniquely 2-divisible automorphic loops, particularly automorphic loops…
In this paper, we study the structure of finite groups with a large number of conjugacy classes of $p$-elements for some prime $p$. As consequences, we obtain some new criteria for the existence of normal $p$-complements in finite groups.
The strong isomorphism classes of extensions of finite groups are parametrized by orbits of a prescribed action on the second cohomology group. We study these orbits in the case of extensions of a finite abelian $p$-group by a cyclic factor…
We classify subalgebras of the complex simple Lie algebra of type G2 up to conjugacy (by an inner automorphism).
