In this note we provide some counterexamples for the conjecture of Moret\'{o} on finite simple groups, which says that any finite simple group $G$ can determined in terms of its order $|G|$ and the number of elements of order $p$, where $p$…

The complete group classification problem for the class of (1+1)-dimensional $r$th order general variable-coefficient Burgers-Korteweg-de Vries equations is solved for arbitrary values of $r$ greater than or equal to two. We find the…

Let W be a complex reflection group and H_c(W) the Rational Cherednik algebra for $W$ depending on a parameter c. One can consider the category O for H_c(W). We prove a conjecture of Rouquier that the categories O for H_c(W) and H_{c'}(W)…

We characterise the Morita equivalence classes of blocks with extraspecial defect groups $p_+^{1+2}$ for $p \geq 5$, and so show that Donovan's conjecture and the Alperin-McKay conjecture hold for such $p$-groups. For $p=3$ we reduce…

We prove that Sp\"ath's Character Triple Conjecture holds for every finite group with respect to maximal defect characters at the prime 2. This is done by reducing the maximal defect case of the conjecture to the so-called inductive…

\input amssym.def \input amssym.tex Let $G$ be a connected algebraic reductive group over an algebraic closure of a prime field ${\Bbb F}_p$, defined over ${\Bbb F}_q$ thanks to a Frobenius $F$. Let $\ell$ be a prime different from $p$. Let…

Aldous-Broder algorithm is a famous algorithm used to sample a uniform spanning tree of any finite connected graph $G$, but it is more general: given an irreducible and reversible Markov chain $M$ on $G$ started at $r$, the tree rooted at…

Let $\lambda$ denote the Liouville function. The Chowla conjecture, in the two-point correlation case, asserts that $$ \sum_{n \leq x} \lambda(a_1 n + b_1) \lambda(a_2 n+b_2) = o(x) $$ as $x \to \infty$, for any fixed natural numbers…

This series of papers is a contribution to the program of classifying $p$-blocks of finite groups up to source algebra equivalence, starting with the case of cyclic blocks. To any $p$-block $\mathbf{B}$ of a finite group with cyclic defect…

We show that the decomposition matrix of a given group $G$ is unitriangular, whenever $G$ has a normal subgroup $N$ such that the decomposition matrix of $N$ is unitriangular, $G/N$ is abelian and certain characters of $N$ extend to their…

We give a characterization of the sets of objects of the derived category of a block of a finite group algebra (or other symmetric algebra) that occur as the set of images of simple modules under an equivalence of derived categories. We…

We study the interaction between Fourier-Mukai transforms and perverse filtrations for a certain class of dualizable abelian fibrations. Multiplicativity of the perverse filtration and the "Perverse $\supset$ Chern" phenomenon for these…

Let $V=\C^n$ be endowed with an orthogonal form and $G=\Or(V)$ be the corresponding orthogonal group. Brauer showed in 1937 that there is a surjective homomorphism $\nu:B_r(n)\to\End_G(V^{\otimes r})$, where $B_r(n)$ is the $r$-string…

A descent conjecture of Wittenberg [Wit24, Conjecture 3.7.4] predicts that if all the twists of a rationally connected torsor over a smooth base satisfy weak approximation with Brauer-Manin obstruction, then so does the base. We give an…

Bouc proposed the following conjecture: a finite group $G$ is nilpotent if and only if its largest quotient $B$-group $\beta(G)$ is nilpotent. And he has prove that this conjecture holds when $G$ is solvable. In this paper, we consider the…

We study the inversion analog of the well-known Gauss algorithm for multiplying complex matrices. A simple version is $(A + iB)^{-1} = (A + BA^{-1}B)^{-1} - i A^{-1}B(A+BA^{-1} B)^{-1}$ when $A$ is invertible, which may be traced back to…

Let $U$ be a regular connected affine semi-local scheme over a field $k$. Let $G$ be a reductive group scheme over $U$. Assuming that $G$ has an appropriate parabolic subgroup scheme, we prove the following statement. Given an affine…

When a computer algebra system fails to solve an Ordinary Differential Equation, is this a limitation of its implementation, or a genuine computational barrier? Three traditions bear on the question. Modern computer algebra algorithms can…

In this note, we present an eighth-order derivative-free family of iterative methods for nonlinear equations. The proposed family shows optimal eight-order of convergence in the sense of the Kung and Traub conjecture \cite{5} and is based…

We prove that the number of irreducible ordinary characters in the principal $p$-block of a finite group $G$ of order divisible by $p$ is always at least $2\sqrt{p-1}$. This confirms a conjecture of H\'{e}thelyi and K\"{u}lshammer for…
