A symmetric pair of reductive groups $(G,H,\theta)$ is called stable, if every closed double coset of $H$ in $G$ is preserved by the anti-involution $g\mapsto \theta(g^{-1})$. In this paper, we develop a method to verify the stability of…

Let $o(G)$ be the average order of a finite group $G$. In this paper, we prove that if $o(G)<\frac{31}{12}$\,, then $G$ is supersolvable. Moreover, we have $o(G)=\frac{31}{12}$ if and only if $G\cong A_4$. We also classify finite groups $G$…

We introduce the notion of finite stature of a family $\{H_i\}$ of subgroups of a group $G$. We investigate the separability of subgroups of a group $G$ that splits as a graph of hyperbolic special groups with quasiconvex edge groups. We…

We give a simple algorithm that enables us to determine whether a subgroup of finite index of the Hecke group is normal.

We study $\epsilon$-representations of discrete groups by unitary operators on a Hilbert space. We define the notion of Ulam stability of a group which loosely means that finite-dimensional $\epsilon$-represendations are uniformly close to…

We show that for every positive integer $k$ there are positive constants $C$ and $c$ such that if $A$ is a subset of $\{1, 2, \dots, n\}$ of size at least $C n^{1/k}$, then, for some $d \leq k-1$, the set of subset sums of $A$ contains a…

In the paper we consider the following conjecture: if a finite group $G$ possesses a solvable $\pi$-Hall subgroup $H$, then there exist elements $x,y,z,t\in G$ such that the identity $H\cap H^x\cap H^y\cap H^z\cap H^t=O_\pi(G)$ holds. The…

We introduce a unified geometric framework for domains satisfying a geometric normal property (C-GNP) relative to a strictly convex set \(C\). Under the fundamental assumption that the source \(f\) is supported within the core \(C\), we…

This work is concerned with the stable norm in word hyperbolic groups as defined by Gromov. We give a short elementary proof of one of its basic property, that is existence of a computable uniform non null lower bound for stable norm in a…

We give a classification of very stable $G$-Higgs bundles in the generically regular Higgs field case for $G$ an arbitrary connected semisimple complex group. This extends the classification for $G=\mathrm{GL}_n(\mathbb C)$ and fixed point…

We prove that if $G$ is a graph and $f(v) \leq 1/(d(v) + 1/2)$ for each $v\in V(G)$, then either $G$ has an independent set of size at least $\sum_{v\in V(G)}f(v)$ or $G$ contains a clique $K$ such that $\sum_{v\in K}f(v) > 1$. This result…

A profinite group is index-stable if any two isomorphic open subgroups have the same index. Let $p$ be a prime, and let $G$ be a compact $p$-adic analytic group with associated $\mathbb{Q}_p$-Lie algebra $\mathcal{L}(G)$. We prove that $G$…

A recent result of Balandraud shows that for every subset S of an abelian group G, there exists a non trivial subgroup H such that |TS| <= |T|+|S|-2 holds only if the stabilizer of TS contains H. Notice that Kneser's Theorem says only that…

Let $\mathcal{G}$ be a smooth linear group scheme of finite type. For any positive integer $k$ and a finite field $\mathbb{F}$, let $W_k(\mathbb{F})$ be the ring of Witt vectors of length $k$ over $\mathbb{F}$. We show that the group…

The Erd\H{o}s-Gallai Theorem states that for $k \geq 2$, every graph of average degree more than $k - 2$ contains a $k$-vertex path. This result is a consequence of a stronger result of Kopylov: if $k$ is odd, $k=2t+1\geq 5$, $n \geq…

This article began as a study of the structure of infinite permutation groups G in which point stabilisers are finite and all infinite normal subgroups are transitive. That led to two variations. One is the generalisation in which point…

Suppose $n$ boys and $n$ girls rank each other at random. We show that any particular girl has at least $({1\over 2}-\epsilon) \ln n$ and at most $(1+\epsilon)\ln n$ different husbands in the set of all Gale/Shapley stable matchings defined…

We verify that for all $n \geq 3$ and $2 \leq k \leq n+1$, the standard $k$-bubble clusters, conjectured to be minimizing total perimeter in $\mathbb{R}^n$, $\mathbb{S}^n$ and $\mathbb{H}^n$, are stable -- an infinitesimal regular…

Let G be a Lie group modelled on a locally convex space, with Lie algebra g, and k be a non-negative integer or infinity. We say that G is C^k-semiregular if each C^k-curve c in g admits a left evolution Evol(c) in G. If, moreover, the map…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $\psi(G)=\sum_{g\in{G}}{o(g)}$. There are some results about the relation between $\psi(G)$ and the structure of $G$. For instance, it is proved that if $G$ is a group of order $n$ and…
