The {\it prime graph} $\Gamma(G)$ of a finite group $G$ is the graph whose vertex set is the set of prime divisors of $|G|$ and in which two distinct vertices $r$ and $s$ are adjacent if and only if there exists an element of $G$ of order…

The pro-\'etale fundamental group of a scheme, introduced by Bhatt and Scholze, generalizes formerly known fundamental groups -- the usual \'etale fundamental group $\pi_1^{\mathrm{et}}$ defined in SGA1 and the more general group defined in…

In an early work from 1896, Maschke established the complete list of all finite planar Cayley graphs. This result initiated a long line of research over the next century, aiming at characterizing in a similar way all planar infinite Cayley…

An interval translation map (ITM) is a map $T \colon I \to I$ defined as a piecewise translation on a finite partition of an interval $I$ into $r \ge 2$ subintervals. Unlike classical interval exchange transformations (IETs), the images of…

We prove that some subquotient categories of exact categories are abelian. This generalizes a result by Koenig-Zhu in the case of (algebraic) triangulated categories. As a particular case, if an exact category B with enough projectives and…

The purpose of this short and elementary note is to identify some classes of exact categories introduced in L. Previdi's thesis. Among other things we show: (1) An exact category is partially abelian exact if and only if it is abelian. (2)…

We relate full exceptional sequences in Fukaya categories of surfaces or equivalently in derived categories of graded gentle algebras to branched coverings over the disk, building on a previous classification result of the first and third…

We show that almost split sequences in the category of comodules over a coalgebra with finite-dimensional right-hand term are direct limits of almost split sequences over finite dimensional subcoalgebras. In previous work we showed that…

The authors classify the finite index subgroups of R. Thompson's group $F$. All such groups that are not isomorphic to $F$ are non-split extensions of finite cyclic groups by $F$. The classification describes precisely which finite index…

Huayi Chen introduces the notion of an approximable graded algebra, which he uses to prove a Fujita-type theorem in the arithmetic setting, and asked if any such algebra is the graded ring of a big line bundle on a projective variety. This…

We give a definition of full level structure on group schemes of the form $G\times G$, where $G$ is a finite flat commutative group scheme of rank $p$ over a $\mathbb{Z}_p$-scheme $S$ or, more generally, a truncated $p$-divisible group of…

Using cyclotomic classes of order twelve for certain finite fields, we construct an infinite family of almost difference sets and normally regular graphs applying the theory of cyclotomy. We show that in each of these fields neither the…

In this paper, we study the right regular representation of a finite group $G$ on the vector space consisting of vector valued functions on $\Gamma\backslash G$ with a subgroup $\Gamma$ of $G$ and give a trace formula using the work of…

Consider a singular curve $\Gamma$ contained in a smooth 3-fold $X$. Assuming the general elephant conjecture, the general hypersurface section $\Gamma\subset S\subset X$ is Du Val. Under that assumption, this paper describes the…

A new proof of the classification for tensor ideal thick subcategories of the bounded derived category, and the stable category, of modular representations of a finite group is obtained. The arguments apply more generally to yield a…

The theory of finitely supported algebraic structures represents a reformulation of Zermelo-Fraenkel set theory in which every construction is finitely supported according to the action of a group of permutations of some basic elements…

Given a $\Gamma$-semigroup $S$, we construct a semigroup $\Sigma$ in such a way that one sided ideals and quasi-ideals of $S$ can be regarded as one sided ideals and quasi-ideals respectively of $\Sigma$. This correspondence and other…

The Borel mapping takes germs at $0$ of smooth functions to the sequence of iterated partial derivatives at $0$. We prove that the Borel mapping restricted to the germs of any quasianalytic ultradifferentiable class strictly larger than the…

The main result in Y.~O.~Hamidoune's paper "Adding Distinct Congruence Classes" ({\em Combin.~Probab.~Comput.}~{\bf 7} (1998) 81-87) is as follows: If $S$ is a generating subset of a cyclic group $G$ such that $0 \not \in S$ and $|S| \geq…

Given a family $F$ of subsets of a group $G$ we describe the structure of its thin-completion $\tau^*(F)$, which is the smallest thin-complete family that contains $I$. A family $F$ of subsets of $G$ is called thin-complete if each $F$-thin…
