In hypergraph theory, determining a characterization of the degree sequence $d=(d_1,d_2,\ldots,d_n)$ where $d_1\ge d_2\ge\ldots,d_n$ are positive integers, of an $h$-uniform simple hypergraph $\cal H$, and deciding the complexity status of…

A description is given of those sequences ${\Bbb S}= (S(0),S(1),\dots,S(l))$ of simple modules over a finite dimensional algebra for which there are only finitely many uniserial modules with consecutive composition factors…

If $G$ is a solvable group, we take $\Delta (G)$ to be the character degree graph for $G$ with primes as vertices. We prove that if $\Delta (G)$ is a square, then $G$ must be a direct product.

Let $G$ be a finite group. Let $X_1(G)$ be the first column of the ordinary character table of $G.$ In this paper, we will show that if $X_1(G)=X_1(S_n),$ then $G\cong S_n.$ As a consequence, we show that $S_n$ is uniquely determined by the…

We show that the pointlike and the idempotent pointlike problems are reducible with respect to natural signatures in the following cases: the pseudovariety of all finite semigroups in which the order of every subgroup is a product of…

We characterize unitary representations of braid groups $B_n$ of degree linear in $n$ and finite images of such representations of degree exponential in $n$.

Let $G$ be a group, let $d$ be a character degree, and let $e$ be the integer so that $|G| = d(d+e)$. It has been shown when $e > 1$ that $|G| \le e^4 - e^3$. In this paper, we consider the groups where $|G| = e^4 - e^3$. It is known that…

Given an oriented surface of positive genus with finitely many punctures, we classify the finite orbits of the mapping class group action on the moduli space of semisimple complex special linear two dimensional representations of the…

Let $G$ be a group. The prime index graph of $G$, denoted by $\Pi(G)$, is the graph whose vertex set is the set of all subgroups of $G$ and two distinct comparable vertices $H$ and $K$ are adjacent if and only if the index of $H$ in $K$ or…

In this paper, we introduce a kind of decomposition of a finite group called a uniform group factorization, as a generalization of exact factorizations of a finite group. A group $G$ is said to admit a uniform group factorization if there…

In this paper, we study the structures of finite groups using some arithmetic conditions on the sizes of real conjugacy classes. We prove that a finite group is solvable if the prime graph on the real class sizes of the group is…

In this note, we prove that for every integer $d\geq 2$ which is not a prime power, there exists a finite solvable group $G$ such that $d\mid |G|$, $\pi(G)=\pi(d)$ and $G$ has no subgroup of order $d$. We also introduce the CLT-degree of a…

This is the second one in a series of papers classifying the factorizations of almost simple groups with nonsolvable factors. In this paper we deal with almost simple unitary groups.

The spectrum of a finite group is the set of its element orders. In this paper we prove that the direct product of two copies of the finite simple sporadic group $J_4$ is uniquely determined by its spectrum in the class of all finite…

Let $d$ be a positive integer. A finite group is called $d$-maximal if it can be generated by precisely $d$ elements, while its proper subgroups have smaller generating sets. For $d\in\{1,2\}$, the $d$-maximal groups have been classified up…

For the rational group algebra $\mathbb{Q}G$ of a finite group $G$, we provide an effective method to compute a complete set of matrix units and, in particular, primitive orthogonal idempotents in a simple component of $\mathbb{Q}G$, which…

Let $ G $ be a finite group and $ \chi \in \mathrm{Irr}(G) $. Define $ \mathrm{cv}(G)=\{\chi(g)\mid \chi \in \mathrm{Irr}(G), g\in G \} $, $ \mathrm{cv}(\chi)=\{\chi(g)\mid g\in G \} $ and denote $ \mathrm{dl}(G) $ by the derived length of…

We characterise finite groups such that for an odd prime $p$ all the irreducible characters in its principal $p$-block have odd degree. We show that this situation does not occur in non-abelian simple groups of order divisible by $p$ unless…

We prove that the order of a finite group $G$ with trivial solvable radical is bounded above in terms of ${\rm acd}(G)$, the average degree of the irreducible characters. It is not true that the index of the Fitting subgroup is bounded…

Column closed pattern subgroups $U$ of the finite upper unitriangular groups $U_n(q)$ are defined as sets of matrices in $U_n(q)$ having zeros in a prescribed set of columns besides the diagonal ones. We explain Jedlitschky's construction…
