Write $\mathbf{A}_\lambda$ for what might be described as the most elementary nontrivial inverse system of abelian groups indexed by the functions from the cardinal $\lambda$ to the set of natural numbers. The question of whether for any…

We give a complete description of the Morita equivalence classes of blocks with elementary abelian defect groups of order 8 and of the derived equivalences between them. A consequence is the verification of Brou\'e's abelian defect group…

A recent construction by Amarra, Devillers and Praeger of block designs with specific parameters depends on certain quadratic polynomials, with integer coefficients, taking prime power values. The Bunyakovsky Conjecture, if true, would…

We present a strong upper bound on the number k(B) of irreducible characters of a p-block B of a finite group G in terms of local invariants. More precisely, the bound depends on a chosen major B-subsection (u,b), its normalizer N_G(\langle…

We define a Frobenius algebra over fusion categories of the form Rep$(G)\boxtimes$Rep$(G)$ which generalizes the diagonal subgroup of $G\times G$. This allows us to extend field theoretical constructions which depend on the existence of a…

In this note, we are interested in obtaining uniform upper bounds for the number of powerful numbers in short intervals $(x, x + y]$. We obtain unconditional upper bounds $O(\frac{y}{\log y})$ and $O(y^{11/12})$ for all powerful numbers and…

We show that the minimal number of generators and the Cohen-Macaulay type of a family of numerical semigroups generated by concatenation of arithmetic sequences is unbounded.

Let M in k[x,y] be a monomial ideal M=(m_1,m_2,...,m_r), where the m_i are a minimal generating set of M. We construct an explicit free resolution of k over S=k[x,y]/M for all monomial ideals M, and provide recursive formulas for the Betti…

For any $n\geq 6$ we construct almost strongly minimal geometries of type $\bullet \overset{n}{-} \bullet \overset{n}{-}\bullet$ which are $2$-ample but not $3$-ample.

We introduce the notion of Bernstein-Sato polynomial of an arbitrary variety (which is not necessarily reduced nor irreducible), using the theory of V-filtrations of M. Kashiwara and B. Malgrange. We prove that the decreasing filtration by…

This note deals with the computation of the factorization number $F_2(G)$ of a finite group $G$. By using the M\"{o}bius inversion formula, explicit expressions of $F_2(G)$ are obtained for two classes of finite abelian groups, improving…

We study finite semigroups of $n \times n$ matrices with rational entries. Such semigroups provide a rich generalization of transition monoids of unambiguous (and, in particular, deterministic) finite automata. In this paper we determine…

In this paper we study the satisfiability and solutions of group equations when combinatorial, algebraic and language-theoretic constraints are imposed on the solutions. We show that the solutions to equations with length, lexicographic…

In this paper we present a procedure to build the set of irreducible numerical semigroups with a fixed Frobenius number. The construction gives us a rooted tree structure for this set. Furthermore, by using the notion of Kunz-coordinates…

We give upper bounds for triples of subsets of a finite group such that the triples of elements that multiply to 1 form a perfect matching. Our bounds are the first to give exponential savings in powers of an arbitrary finite group.…

Let $A$ be a finite subset of an arbitrary additive group $G$, and let $\phi(A)$ denote the cardinality of the largest subset $B$ in $A$ that is sum-avoiding in $A$ (that is to say, $b_1+b_2 \not \in A$ for all distinct $b_1,b_2 \in B$).…

With a small suitable modification, dropping the projectivity condition, we extend the notion of a Frobenius algebra to grant that a Frobenius algebra over a Frobenius commutative ring is itself a Frobenius ring. The modification introduced…

We prove that if there are $\mathfrak c$ incomparable selective ultrafilters then, for every infinite cardinal $\kappa$ such that $\kappa^\omega=\kappa$, there exists a group topology on the free Abelian group of cardinality $\kappa$…

In this paper we consider two functions related to the arithmetic and geometric means of element orders of a finite group, showing that certain lower bounds on such functions strongly affect the group structure. In particular, for every…

Let $A$ be a non-zero abelian variety over a field $F$ that is not algebraic over a finite field. We prove that the rational rank of the abelian group $A(F)$ is infinite when $F$ is large in the sense of Pop (also called ample). The main…
