Let $FG$ be the group algebra of a finite $p$-group $G$ over a finite field $F$ of characteristic $p$ and $*$ the classical involution of $FG$. The $*$-unitary subgroup of $FG$, denoted by $V_*(FG)$, is defined to be the set of all…

Let $G$ be a connected linear algebraic group, let $V$ be a finite dimensional algebraic $G$-module, and let $\mathcal O_1$, $\mathcal O_2$ be two $G$-orbits in $V$. We describe a constructive way to find out whether $\mathcal O_1$ lies in…

Given a short exact sequence of groups with certain conditions, $1\to F\to G\to H\to 1$, we prove that $G$ has solvable conjugacy problem if and only if the corresponding action subgroup $A\leqslant Aut(F)$ is orbit decidable. From this, we…

We prove that the stabiliser group G of the Segre variety product in PG(V) of three projective lines over a field F has four orbits on singular points of PG(V), and that G has five orbits on points of PG(V) if F is finite.

Previous work showed that every pair of nontrivial Bernoulli shifts over a fixed free group are orbit equivalent. In this paper, we prove that if $G_1,G_2$ are nonabelian free groups of finite rank then every nontrivial Bernoulli shift over…

Let G be the group preserving a nondegenerate sesquilinear form on a vector space V, and H a symmetric subgroup of G of the type G1 x G2. We explicitly parameterize the H-orbits in the Grassmannian of r-dimensional isotropic subspaces of V…

Let p be an odd prime, F the field of p elements and G a finite abelian p-group with an arbitrary involutory automorphism. Extend this automorphism to the group algebra FG and consider the unitary and the symmetric normalized units of FG.…

Let G be a connected reductive complex algebraic group acting on a smooth complete complex algebraic variety X. We assume that X under the action of G is a regular embedding, a condition satisfied in particular by smooth toric varieties and…

We prove that if a solvable group A acts coprimely on a solvable group G, then A has a "large" orbit in its corresponding action on the set of ordinary complex irreducible characters of G. This extends (at the cost of a weaker bound) a 2005…

We consider the groups of regular circulant matrices over finite fields and integer residue class rings. In both cases we present a formula for the order of these groups. We also make a first step towards finding the algebraic structure of…

Let $V$ be a simple vertex operator algebra, and $G$ a finite automorphism group of $V$ such that $V^G$ is regular. The definition of entries in $S$-matrix on $V^G$ is discussed, and then is extended. The set of $V^G$-modules can be…

Let $G$ be a primitive permutation group acting on a finite set $X$. The orbital diameter $\mathrm{diam}(X,G)$ is defined to be the supremum of the diameters of the (connected) orbital graphs of $G$ after disregarding the directions of all…

In this note, we prove that if $(G,V)$ is a prehomogeneous vector space over any field $k$ such that the stabilizer of a generic point is reductive, the set of semi-stable points is a single orbit over the separable closure of $k$.

Let $G$ be a group. The orbits of the natural action of $Aut(G)$ on $G$ are called "automorphism orbits" of $G$, and the number of automorphism orbits of $G$ is denoted by $\omega(G)$. In this paper we prove that if $G$ is an FC-group with…
