In this paper, we present a short proof of Halin's grid theorem.
In this article we give an elementary introduction to the representation theory of finite magnetic groups from a purely mathematical point of view. -- En este art\'iculo damos una introducci\'on elemental a la teor\'ia de representaciones…
The study of verbal subgroups within a group is well-known for being an effective tool to obtain structural information about a group. Therefore, conditions that allow the classification of words in a free group are of paramount importance.…
We present a diagram surveying equivalence or strict implication for properties of different nature (algebraic, model theoretic, topological, etc.) about groups definable in o-minimal structures. All results are well-known and an extensive…
We provide a short and non-technical summary of our current knowledge and some possible perspectives on the group field theory formalism for quantum gravity, in the form of a (partial) FAQ (with answers). Some of the questions and answers…
Tight triangulated manifolds are generalisations of neighborly triangulations of closed surfaces and are interesting objects in Combinatorial Topology. Tight triangulated manifolds are conjectured to be minimal. Except few, all the known…
Small-scale clumps of dark matter are gravitationally bounded structures that have masses comparable to or lower than stellar masses and consist of noninteracting or weakly interacting dark matter particles. In this paper, the current…
This article is an introduction to formal languages from the point of view of combinatorial group theory. Group theoretic applications are included and language classes are defined algebraically.
We define a partition of a reductive group into finitely many subsets, refining the partition of the group into strata. We state some conjectural properties of these subsets (called substrata) and verify them in some examples.
Given a finite group $G$, we denote by $L(G)$ the subgroup lattice of $G$ and by ${\rm Isolated}(G)$ the set of isolated subgroups of $G$. In this note, we describe finite groups $G$ such that $|{\rm Isolated}(G)|=|L(G)|-k$, where…
A Nash group is said to be almost linear if it has a Nash representation with finite kernel. Structures and basic properties of these groups are studied.
By definition, a group is called narrow if it does not contain a copy of a non-abelian free group. We describe the structure of finite and narrow normal subgroups in Coxeter groups and their automorphism groups.
We give a brief overview of the current state of the study of the deformation theory of Kleinian groups. The topics covered include the definition of the deformation space of a Kleinian group and of several important subspaces; a discussion…
We describe the groups that have the same holomorph as a finite perfect group. Our results are complete for centerless groups. When the center is non-trivial, some questions remain open. The peculiarities of the general case are illustrated…
Generally, in any human field, a Smarandache Structure on a set A means a weak structure W on A such that there exists a proper subset B contained in A which is embedded with a stronger structure S. These types of structures occur in our…
In this paper, we give an introduction for rough groups and rough homomorphisms. Then we present some properties related to topological rough subgroups and rough subsets. We construct the product of topological rough groups and give an…
This is an overview article on compact Lie groups and their representations, written for the Encyclopedia of Mathematical Physics to be published by Elsevier.
Compact groups of galaxies have posed a number of challenging questions. Intensive observational and theoretical studies are now providing answers to many of these, and at the same time, are revealing unexpected new clues about the nature…
This is an introduction to linear algebra and group theory. We first review the linear algebra basics, namely the determinant, the diagonalization procedure and more, and with the determinant being constructed as it should, as a signed…
