We give extensions of results on nonnegative matrix semigroups which deduce finiteness or boundedness of such semigroups from the corresponding local properties, e.g., from finiteness or boundedness of values of certain linear functionals…
Physical properties of matter are tightly related with the kind of symmetry of the medium. Group theory is a systematic tool, though not always easy to handle, to exploit symmetry properties, for instance to find the eigenvectors and…
In this work we introduce the notion of almost-symmetry for generalized numerical semigroups. In addition to the main properties occurring in this new class, we present several characterizations for its elements. In particular we show that…
The present paper is a note on the tensor degree of finite groups, introduced recently in literature. This numerical invariant generalizes the commutativity degree through the notion of nonabelian tensor square. We show two inequalities,…
These notes are devoted to lattices in products of trees and related topics. They provide an introduction to the construction, by M. Burger and S. Mozes, of examples of such lattices that are simple as abstract groups. Two features of that…
In this paper we consider approximations of Neumann problems for the integral fractional Laplacian by continuous, piecewise linear finite elements. We analyze the weak formulation of such problems, including their well-posedness and…
We revisit the isoperimetric inequalities for finitely generated groups introduced and studied by N. Varopoulos, T. Coulhon and L. Saloff-Coste. Namely we show that a lower bound on the isoperimetric quotient of finite subsets in a finitely…
In this lecture, we survey a number of recent results and developments regarding the representation theory of infinite-dimensional quantum groups (quantum affine algebras and related algebras), as well as their connections with cluster…
We consider approximation by functions with finite support and characterize its approximation spaces in terms of interpolation spaces and Lorentz spaces.
We investigate two ways in which self-maps of an infinite set may be close to bijections; our investigation generates a $\mathbb{Z}$-valued index theory and a corresponding extension by $\mathbb{Z}$ for the quotient of the full symmetric…
Sofic groups generalise both residually finite and amenable groups, and the concept is central to many important results and conjectures in measured group theory. We introduce a topological notion of a sofic boundary attached to a given…
In this talk we introduce several topics in combinatorial number theory which are related to groups; the topics include combinatorial aspects of covers of groups by cosets, and also restricted sumsets and zero-sum problems on abelian…
We study a summability method called almost convergence for bounded measurable functions defined on a locally compact abelian group. We define almost convergence using topologically invariant means and exhibit two different kinds of…
We consider a constructive modification of quantum-mechanical formalism. Replacement of a general unitary group by unitary representations of finite groups makes it possible to reproduce quantum formalism without loss of its empirical…
The problem of finding the number of ordered commuting tuples of elements in a finite group is equivalent to finding the size of the solution set of the system of equations determined by the commutator relations that impose commutativity…
We define the notion of accessibility for a pro-$p$ group. We prove that finitely generated pro-$p$ groups are accessible given a bound on the size of their finite subgroups. We then construct a finitely generated inaccessible pro-$p$…
Two finitely generated groups have the same set of finite quotients if and only if their profinite completions are isomorphic. Consider the map which sends (the isomorphism class of) an S-arithmetic group to (the isomorphism class of) its…
We define a class of finite groups based on the properties of the closed twins of their power graphs and study the structure of those groups. As a byproduct, we obtain results about finite groups admitting a partition by cyclic subgroups.
We develop the representation theory of a finite semigroup over an arbitrary commutative semiring with unit, in particular classifying the irreducible and minimal representations. The results for an arbitrary semiring are as good as the…
In this work, we present a brief but insightful overview of the gauge theories, which are defined on $ n $-dimensional lattices by using finite gauge groups, in order to show how they can be interpreted as a Hamiltonian system with…
