We consider finite groups having a conjugacy class that is the difference of two normal subgroups. That is, suppose $G$ is a group and $M$ and $N$ are normal subgroups so that $N < M$, and suppose that there is an element $g \in G$ so that…
We show that a finite collection of stable subgroups of a finitely generated group has finite height, finite width and bounded packing. We then use knowledge about intersections of conjugates to characterize finite families of…
There are several graphs defined on groups. Among them we consider graphs whose vertex set consists conjugacy classes of a group $G$ and adjacency is defined by properties of the elements of conjugacy classes. In particular, we consider…
We determine the conjugacy classes of semisimple elements in the symplectic groups ${\rm Sp}(2m,F)$, where $F$ is an arbitrary field of characteristic not $2$. This note was originally a letter dated 23 March, 2006, from G.E. Wall to Cheryl…
We make a list of finite simple groups whose group rings over a given field are serial.
Structures of commuting semigroups of isometries under certain additional assumptions like double commutativity or dual double commutativity are found.
We determine the structure of the intersection of a finitely generated subgroup of a semiabelian variety $G$ defined over a finite field with a closed subvariety $X\subset G$.
Let ${\cal C}$ be a nonempty class of finite groups closed under taking subgroups, homomorphic images and extensions. A subgroup $H$ of an abstract residually ${\cal C}$ group $R$ is said to be conjugacy ${\cal C}$-distinguished if whenever…
Let $G$ be a semiabelian variety defined over an algebraically closed field $K$ of prime characteristic. We describe the intersection of a subvariety $X$ of $G$ with a finitely generated subgroup of $G(K)$.
The power graph $\mathcal{P}(G)$ is the simple undirected graph with group elements as a vertex set and two elements are adjacent if one of them is a power of the other. The order supergraph $\mathcal{S}(G)$ of the power graph…
Given an ordered field $\mathbb{T}$ of formal series over an ordered field $\mathbf{R}$ equipped with a composition law $\circ \colon \mathbb{T} \times \mathbb{T}^{>\mathbb{R}} \longrightarrow \mathbb{T}$, we give conditions for…
We characterize numerical semigroups for which the poset of its ideal class monoid is a lattice, and study the irreducible elements of such a lattice with respect to union, intersection, infimum and supremum.
Let $\F$ be a field with a non-trivial involution $c: \alpha \to \alpha^c$. An element $g \in {\rm GL}_n(\F)$ is called $c$-real if it is conjugate to $(g^c)^{-1}$. We prove that for $n \geq 2$, $g \in {\rm GL}_n(\F)$ is $c$-real if and…
For a simple algebraic group $G$ over an algebraically closed field, we study products of normal subsets. For this we mark the nodes of the Dynkin diagram of $G$. We use two types of labels, a binary marking and a labeling with non-negative…
A semigroup $S$ is called an equational domain if any finite union of algebraic sets over $S$ is algebraic. We prove some necessary and sufficient conditions for a completely simple semigroup to be an equational domain.
Let $G$ be a classical group defined over a finite field. We consider the following fundamental problems concerning conjugacy in $G$: 1. List a representative for each conjugacy class of $G$. 2. Given $x \in G$, describe the centralizer of…
The purpose of this paper is to consider when two maximal subalgebras of a finite-dimensional solvable Lie algebra $L$ are conjugate, and to investigate their intersection.
The aim of this paper is to give a condition to topological conjugacy of invariant flows in an Lie group $G$ which its Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ is associative algebra or semisimple. In fact, we show that if two dynamical system on $G$ are…
This thesis studies arithmetic of linear algebraic groups. It involves studying the properties of linear algebraic groups defined over global fields, local fields and finite fields, or more generally the study of the linear algebraic groups…
Let $K$ be a global function field of characteristic $p$, and let $\Gamma$ be a finite-index subgroup of an arithmetic group defined with respect to $K$ and such that any torsion element of $\Gamma$ is a $p$-torsion element. We define…
