This is the second installment of an exposition of an ACL2 formalization of finite group theory. The first, which was presented at the 2022 ACL2 workshop, covered groups and subgroups, cosets, normal subgroups, and quotient groups,…

Let $G$ be a semisimple simply-connected algebraic group over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. We prove that the affine Hecke category associated to the loop group of $G$ is equivalent to the colimit, evaluated in the…

Baer characterized capable finite abelian groups (a group is capable if it is isomorphic to the quotient of some group by its center) by a condition on the size of the factors in the invariant factor decomposition (the group must be…

A group $G$ is said to be $\frac{3}{2}$-generated if every nontrivial element belongs to a generating pair. It is easy to see that if $G$ has this property then every proper quotient of $G$ is cyclic. In this paper we prove that the…

We formulate and prove a version of the Segal Conjecture for infinite groups. For finite groups it reduces to the original version. The condition that G is finite is replaced in our setting by the assumption that there exists a finite model…

We prove that if G is a sufficiently large finite almost simple group of Lie type, then given a fixed nontrivial element x in G and a coset of G modulo its socle, the probability that x and a random element of the coset generate a subgroup…

A condition for the synchronizability of a pair of PDE systems, coupled through a finite set of variables, is commonly the existence of internal synchronization or internal coherence in each system separately. The condition was previously…

We study a commutation pattern in which two affine families commute completely across the two families while each family retains internal noncommutativity. For one-dimensional affine groups over finite commutative rings, we prove a…

Free products of two residually finite groups with amalgamated retracts are considered. It is proved that a cyclic subgroup of such a group is not finitely separable if, and only if, it is conjugated with a subgroup of a free factor which…

Let $\sigma =\{\sigma_{i} | i\in I\}$ be some partition of the set of all primes $\Bbb{P}$, $G$ a finite group and $\sigma (G) =\{\sigma_{i} |\sigma_{i}\cap \pi (G)\ne \emptyset \}$. A set ${\cal H}$ of subgroups of $G$ is said to be a…

In a graph, we say that two nodes are topologically equivalent if their sets of first neighbors, excluding the two nodes, coincide. We prove that nonlinearly coupled heterogeneous oscillators located on a group of topologically equivalent…

We classify, up to some notoriously hard cases, the rank 3 graphs which fail to meet either the Delsarte or the Hoffman bound. As a consequence, we resolve the question of separation for the corresponding rank 3 primitive groups and give…

The symmetries described by Pin groups are the result of combining a finite number of discrete reflections in (hyper)planes. The current work shows how an analysis using geometric algebra provides a picture complementary to that of the…

Let $G$ be a permutation group on a set $\Omega$. A subset of $\Omega$ is a base for $G$ if its pointwise stabilizer in $G$ is trivial. By $b(G)$ we denote the size of the smallest base of $G$. Every permutation group with $b(G)=2$ contains…

The study of finite subgroups of a simple algebraic group $G$ reduces in a sense to those which are almost simple. If an almost simple subgroup of $G$ has a socle which is not isomorphic to a group of Lie type in the underlying…

A CP-semigroup is aligned if its set of trivially maximal subordinates is totally ordered by subordination. We prove that aligned spatial E_0-semigroups are prime: they have no non-trivial tensor product decompositions up to cocycle…

This article records multiple results coming from interplay between de-completed topological periodic cyclic homology, Segal conjecture, and F-smoothness. We establish completeness of motivic filtration on de-completed topological periodic…

It is proved that a profinite group $G$ has fewer than $2^{\aleph_0}$ conjugacy classes of $p$-elements for an odd prime $p$ if and only if its $p$-Sylow subgroups are finite. (Here, by a $p$-element one understands an element that either…

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…

This paper contributes to the characterization of a certain class of commutative Hopf algebroids. It is shown that a commutative flat Hopf algebroid with a non zero base ring and a nonempty character groupoid is geometrically transitive if…
