Given a quantum permutation group $G\subset S_N^+$, with orbits having the same size $K$, we construct a universal matrix model $\pi:C(G)\to M_K(C(X))$, having the property that the images of the standard coordinates $u_{ij}\in C(G)$ are…

We prove a new case of Rubin's saturation conjecture about the realization of $G$-transfer systems, for $G$ a finite cyclic group, by linear isometries $N_\infty$-operads, namely the case of cyclic groups of order $p^nq^m$ for $p,q$…

Let G be a finite group. Let pi be a permutation from S{n}. We study the distribution of probabilities of equality a{1} a{2} ...a{n-1}a{n}=a{pi{1}}^{epsilon{1}} a{pi_{2}}^{epsilon{2}}...a{pi{n-1}}^{epsilon_{n-1}} a_{pi_{n}}^{epsilon{n}},…

It is known that there are precisely three transitive permutation groups of degree $6$ that admit an invariant partition with three parts of size $2$ such that the kernel of the action on the parts has order $4$; these groups are called…

It is shown, from $\sigma$-centered Martin's Axiom, that there exists a proper dense subgroup of the symmetric group on a countably infinite set whose natural action on sufficiently flexible relational structures is transitive. This allows…

Generalizing a result in the theory of finite fields we prove that, apart from a couple of exceptions that can be classified, for any elements $a_1,...,a_m$ of the cyclic group of order $m$, there is a permutation $\pi$ such that…

The orbit dimension $\sigma(G)$ (also called the separation number or rigidity index) of a permutation group $G$ with domain $\Omega$ is the minimum cardinality of a subset $S \subseteq \Omega$ such that, for any two distinct elements…

The orbits of Weyl groups W(A(n)) of simple A(n) type Lie algebras are reduced to the union of orbits of the Weyl groups of maximal reductive subalgebras of A(n). Matrices transforming points of the orbits of W(An) into points of subalgebra…

We present an approach to enumerate graphs whose automorphism group has exactly two orbits. Our method exploits the observation that we can enumerate all graphs whose automorphism group contains a given this permutation group. We obtain the…

An automorphism $\alpha$ of a group $G$ is called a commuting automorphism if each element $x$ in $G$ commutes with its image $\alpha(x)$ under $\alpha$. Let $A(G)$ denote the set of all commuting automorphisms of $G$. Rai [Proc. Japan…

For a finite group $A$ with normal subgroup $G$, a subgroup $U$ of $G$ is an $A$-prime-power-covering subgroup if $U$ meets every $A$-conjugacy-class of elements of $G$ of prime power order. It is conjectured that $|G:U|$ is bounded by some…

We investigate alternating sign matrices that are not permutation matrices, but have finite order in a general linear group. We classify all such examples of the form $P+T$, where $P$ is a permutation matrix and $T$ has four non-zero…

Compact matrix quantum groups act naturally on Cuntz algebras. The first author isolated certain conditions under which the fixed point algebras under this action are Kirchberg algebras. Hence they are completely determined by their…

Fix a word $w$ in a free group $F$ on $r$ generators. A $w$-random permutation in the symmetric group $S_N$ is obtained by sampling $r$ independent uniformly random permutations $\sigma_{1},\ldots,\sigma_{r}\in S_{N}$ and evaluating…

In this paper, the study of the global orbit pattern (gop) formed by all the periodic orbits of discrete dynamical systems on a finite set $X$ allows us to describe precisely the behaviour of such systems. We can predict by means of closed…

If $G$ is a group acting on a set $\Omega$ and $\alpha, \beta \in \Omega$, the digraph whose vertex set is $\Omega$ and whose arc set is the orbit $(\alpha, \beta)^G$ is called an {\em orbital digraph} of $G$. Each orbit of the stabiliser…

In this paper, we study intersecting sets in primitive and quasiprimitive permutation groups. Let $G \leqslant \mathrm{Sym}(\Omega)$ be a transitive permutation group, and ${S}$ an intersecting set. Previous results show that if $G$ is…

Let $G$ be a group acting on a finite set $\Omega$. Then $G$ acts on $\Omega\times \Omega$ by its entry-wise action and its orbits form the basis relations of a coherent configuration (or shortly scheme). Our concern is to consider what…

A permutation group $G\le\operatorname{Sym}(\Omega)$ is said to be $2$-closed if no group $H$ such that $G<H\le\operatorname{Sym}(\Omega)$ has the same orbits on $\Omega\times\Omega$ as $G$. A simple and efficient inductive criterion for…

A classification is given of rank 3 group actions which are quasiprimitive but not primitive. There are two infinite families and a finite number of individual imprimitive examples. When combined with earlier work of Bannai, Kantor,…
