Let $ F $ be a finite field and consider $ UT_n $ the algebra of $ n\times n $ upper triangular matrices over $ F $. In [1], it was proved that every $ G $-grading is elementary. In [2], the authors classified all nonisomorphic elementary $…

In previous work, the authors confirmed the speculation of J. G. Thompson that certain multiquadratic fields are generated by specified character values of sufficiently large alternating groups $A_n$. Here we address the natural…

We study finite groups arising from configurations of pairwise skew lines in $\mathbb{P}^3_K$. To such a configuration ${L}$ one associates a group $G_{L}\subset \mathrm{PGL}_2(K)$ acting on each line, and we investigate which finite…

We prove that a finitely generated soluble residually finite group has polynomial index growth if and only if it is a minimax group. We also show that if a finitely generated group with PIG is residually finite-soluble then it is a linear…

This paper is concerned with the diameter of certain word norms on S-arithmetic split Chevalley groups. Such groups are well known to be boundedly generated by root elements. We prove that word metrics given by conjugacy classes on…

We study Lie algebras generated by extremal elements (i.e., elements spanning inner ideals of L) over a field of characteristic distinct from 2. We prove that any Lie algebra generated by a finite number of extremal elements is finite…

Let $S$ be a submonoid of a free Abelian group of finite rank. We show that if $k$ is a field of prime characteristic such that the monoid $k$-algebra $k[S]$ is split $F$-regular, then $k[S]$ is a finitely generated $k$-algebra, or…

We prove a conjecture of Helfgott on the structure of sets of bounded tripling in bounded rank, which states the following. Let $A$ be a finite symmetric subset of $\mathrm{GL}_n(\mathbf{F})$ for any field $\mathbf{F}$ such that $|A^3| \leq…

This paper describes a bounded generation result concerning the minimal natural number $K$ such that for $Q(C_2,2R):=\{A\varepsilon_{\phi}(2x)A^{-1}|x\in R,A\in{\rm Sp}_4(R),\phi\in C_2\}$, one has $N_{C_2,2R}=\{X_1\cdots X_K|\forall 1\leq…

We prove that the minimal representation dimension of a direct product $G$ of non-abelian groups $G_1,\ldots,G_n$ is bounded below by $n+1$ and thereby answer a question of Ab\'ert. If each $G_i$ is moreover non-solvable, then this lower…

Suppose $I$ is an ideal of a polynomial ring over a field, $I\subseteq k[x_1,\ldots,x_n]$, and whenever $fg\in I$ with degree $\leq b$, then either $f\in I$ or $g\in I$. When $b$ is sufficiently large, it follows that $I$ is prime.…

In this paper we describe all groups that are first-order (elementarily) equivalent to the classical matrix groups such as $GL_n(F), SL_n(F)$ and $T_n(F)$ over a field $F$ provided $n \geq 3$.

Let $F$ be a field. We show that the largest irredundant generating sets for the algebra of $n\times n $ matrices over $F$ have $2n-1$ elements when $n>1$. (A result of Laffey states that the answer is $2n-2$ when $n>2$, but its proof…

This paper has two main parts. In the first part we develop an elementary coordinatization for any nilpotent group $G$ taking exponents in a binomial principal ideal domain (PID) $A$. In case that the additive group $A^+$ of $A$ is finitely…

Let $R$ be a complete regular local ring with an algebraically closed residue field and let $A$ be a Noetherian $R$-subalgebra of the polynomial ring $R[X]$. It has been shown in \cite{DO2} that if $\dim R=1$, then $A$ is necessarily…

Given a finite group $G$ and a generating set $S \subseteq G$, the diameter $diam(G,S)$ is the least integer $n$ such that every element of $G$ is the product of at most $n$ elements of $S$. In this paper, for bounded $|S|$, we characterize…

There has been considerable interest in recent decades in questions of random generation of finite and profinite groups, and finite simple groups in particular. In this paper we study similar notions for finite and profinite associative…

First time, we introduce Extended special linear group $ESL_2(F)$, which is generalization of matrix group $SL_2(F)$ over arbitrary field $F$. Extended special linear group $ESL_2(k)$, where $k$ is arbitrary perfect field, is storage of all…

Let $q$ be a prime power and $\mathbb F_{q^n}$ be the finite field with $q^n$ elements, where $n>1$. We introduce the class of the linearized polynomials $L(x)$ over $\mathbb F_{q^n}$ such that…

Given an algebra $F[H]^G$ of polynomial invariants of an action of the group $G$ over the vector space $H$, a subset $S$ of $F[H]^G$ is called separating if $S$ separates all orbits that can be separated by $F[H]^G$. A minimal separating…
