Motivated by the need for efficient isomorphism tests for finite groups, we present a polynomial-time method for deciding isomorphism within a class of groups that is well-suited to studying local properties of general finite groups. We…

In recent work, Rosenbaum and Wagner showed that isomorphism of explicitly listed $p$-groups of order $n$ could be tested in $n^{\frac{1}{2}\log_p n + O(p)}$ time, roughly a square root of the classical bound. The $O(p)$ term is entirely…

We study the problems of testing isomorphism of polynomials, algebras, and multilinear forms. Our first main results are average-case algorithms for these problems. For example, we develop an algorithm that takes two cubic forms $f, g\in…

We construct a polynomial-time algorithm that given a graph $X$ with $4p$ vertices ($p$ is prime), finds (if any) a Cayley representation of $X$ over the group $C_2\times C_2\times C_p$. This result, together with the known similar result…

We show that there is a dense set $\ourset\subseteq \mathbb{N}$ of group orders and a constant $c$ such that for every $n\in \ourset$ we can decide in time $O(n^2(\log n)^c)$ whether two $n\times n$ multiplication tables describe isomorphic…

The group isomorphism problem determines whether two groups, given by their Cayley tables, are isomorphic. For groups with order $n$, an algorithm with $n^{(\log n + O(1))}$ running time, attributed to Tarjan, was proposed in the 1970s…

In this paper, we investigate the computational complexity of isomorphism testing for finite groups and quasigroups, given by their multiplication tables. We crucially take advantage of their various decompositions to show the following: -…

While efficient algorithms are known for solving many important problems related to groups, no efficient algorithm is known for determining whether two arbitrary groups are isomorphic. The particular case of 2-nilpotent groups, a special…

For primes $p,e>2$ there are at least $p^{e-3}/e$ groups of order $p^{2e+2}$ that have equal multisets of isomorphism types of proper subgroups and proper quotient groups, isomorphic character tables, and power maps. This obstructs recent…

We present a new algorithm to decide isomorphism between finite graded algebras. For a broad class of nilpotent Lie algebras, we demonstrate that it runs in time polynomial in the order of the input algebras. We introduce heuristics that…

A deterministic polynomial-time algorithm constructs an isomorphism between ${\rm PGL}(2,2^e)$ and a black box group to which it is isomorphic.

Let ${\frak K}$ be a class of combinatorial objects invariant with respect to a given regular cyclic group. It is proved that the isomorphism of any two objects $X,Y\in{\frak K}$ can be tested in polynomial time in sizes of $X$ and $Y$.

This paper studies the problem of testing if an input (Gamma,*), where Gamma is a finite set of unknown size and * is a binary operation over Gamma given as an oracle, is close to a specified class of groups. Friedl et al. [Efficient…

We show that the epimorphism problem is solvable for targets that are virtually cyclic or a product of an Abelian group and a finite group.

The isomorphism problem for finite groups of order n (GpI) has long been known to be solvable in $n^{\log n+O(1)}$ time, but only recently were polynomial-time algorithms designed for several interesting group classes. Inspired by recent…

In this paper, we exhibit $\textsf{AC}^{3}$ isomorphism tests for coprime extensions $H \ltimes N$ where $H$ is elementary Abelian and $N$ is Abelian; and groups where $\text{Rad}(G) = Z(G)$ is elementary Abelian and $G =…
