In the present work, we prove that every class of the divisor class group of a Krull monoid algebra contains infinitely many prime divisors. Several attempts to this result have been made in the literature so far, unfortunately with open…

Let p be a prime number. Let G be a finite abelian p-group of exponent n (written additively) and A be a non-empty subset of $]n[:= \{1,2,..., n\}$ such that elements of A are incongruent modulo p and non-zero modulo p. Let $k \geq…

Let $G$ be a finite group. By a sequence over $G$, we mean a finite unordered sequence of terms from $G$, where repetition is allowed, and we say that it is a product-one sequence if its terms can be ordered such that their product equals…

Let $G$ be a finite group written multiplicatively. By a sequence over $G$, we mean a finite sequence of terms from $G$ which is unordered, repetition of terms allowed, and we say that it is a product-one sequence if its terms can be…

We introduce a new invariant describing the structure of sets of lengths in atomic monoids and domains. For an atomic monoid $H$, let $\Delta_{\rho} (H)$ be the set of all positive integers $d$ which occur as differences of arbitrarily long…

Let K/Q be a cyclic extension. In this paper, we give several congruences connecting the prime divisors of the degree g= [K:Q] with the prime divisors of the class number h of K/Q. As an exemple, the theorem: Let K/Q be a cyclic extension…

Let $\mathfrak F$ be a formation and let $G$ be a group. A subgroup $H$ of $G$ is $\mathrm{K}\mathfrak F$-subnormal (submodular) in $G$ if there is a subgroup chain $H=H_0\le \ H_1 \le \ \ldots \le H_i \leq H_{i+1}\le \ldots \le \ H_n=G$…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $p$ a fixed prime divisor of $|G|$. Combining the nilpotence, the normality and the order of groups together, we prove that if every maximal subgroup of $G$ is nilpotent or normal or has $p'$-order, then (1)…

Let $M$ be a commutative cancellative monoid. The set $\Delta(M)$, which consists of all positive integers which are distances between consecutive factorization lengths of elements in $M$, is a widely studied object in the theory of…

Let $H$ be an atomic monoid. The set of distances $\Delta (H)$ of $H$ is the set of all $d \in \mathbb{N}$ with the following property: there are irreducible elements $u\_1, \ldots, u\_k, v\_1 \ldots, v\_{k+d}$ such that $u\_1 \cdot \ldots…

We study finite groups $G$ having a subgroup $H$ and $D \subset G \setminus H$ such that the multiset $\{ xy^{-1}:x,y \in D\}$ has every non-identity element occur the same number of times (such a $D$ is called a {\it difference set}). We…

We prove that there exists a universal constant $D$ such that if $p$ is a prime divisor of the index of the Fitting subgroup of a finite group $G$, then the number of conjugacy classes of G is at least $Dp/log_2 p$. We conjecture that we…

Suppose that a finite group $G$ admits a Frobenius group of automorphisms $FH$ with kernel $F$ and complement $H$ such that the fixed-point subgroup of $F$ is trivial: $C_G(F)=1$. In this situation various properties of $G$ are shown to be…

For a finite abelian group $G,$ the Davenport Constant, denoted by $D(G)$, is defined to be the least positive integer $k$ such that every sequence of length at least $k$ has a non-trivial zero-sum subsequence. A long-standing conjecture is…

We prove a Liv\v{s}ic-type theorem for H\"older continuous and matrix-valued cocycles over non-uniformly hyperbolic systems. More precisely, we prove that whenever $(f,\mu)$ is a non-uniformly hyperbolic system and $A:M \to GL(d,\mathbb{R})…
