Let $A$ and $G$ be finite groups such that $A$ acts coprimely on $G$ by automorphisms, we first prove some results on the solvability of finite groups in which some maximal $A$-invariant subgroups have indices a prime or the square of a…

Let $\Gamma\subset\mathbb{Q}^*$ be a finitely generated subgroup and let $p$ be a prime such that the reduction group $\Gamma_p$ is a well defined subgroup of the multiplicative group $\mathbb{F}_p^*$. We prove an asymptotic formula for the…

Let $K$ be a number field with ring of integers $\mathbb{Z}_K$. We prove two asymptotic formulas connected with the distribution of irreducible elements in $\mathbb{Z}_K$. First, we estimate the maximum number of nonassociated irreducibles…

Quantum algorithms for factoring and discrete logarithm have previously been generalized to finding hidden subgroups of finite Abelian groups. This paper explores the possibility of extending this general viewpoint to finding hidden…

In this paper we consider the problem of testing whether two finite groups are isomorphic. Whereas the case where both groups are abelian is well understood and can be solved efficiently, very little is known about the complexity of…

The contraction method applied to the construction of the nonsemisimple quantum symplectic Cayley-Klein groups $ Fun(Sp_q(n;j)) $. This groups has been realised as Hopf algebra of the noncommutative functions over the algebra with nilpotent…

We consider GL_n(F_q)-analogues of certain factorization problems in the symmetric group S_n: rather than counting factorizations of the long cycle (1, 2, ..., n) given the number of cycles of each factor, we count factorizations of a…

We investigate the fundamental group of Griffiths' space, and the first singular homology group of this space and of the Hawaiian Earring by using (countable) reduced tame words. We prove that two such words represent the same element in…

We carry out a study of groups $G$ in which the index of any infinite subgroup is finite. We call them restricted-finite groups and characterize finitely generated not torsion restricted-finite groups. We show that every infinite…

Let $Q(n)$ denote the count of the primitive subsets of the integers $\{1,2\ldots n\}$. We give a new proof that $Q(n) = \alpha^{(1+o(1))n}$ which allows us to give a good error term and to improve upon the lower bound for the value of this…

Let ${\Bbb Z}_{m}$ be the additive group of residue classes modulo $m$ and $s(m_{1},m_{2})$ denote the number of subgroups of the group ${\Bbb Z}_{m_{1}}\times {\Bbb Z}_{m_{2}}$, where $m_{1}$ and $m_{2}$ are arbitrary positive integers. We…

We give a classification and complete algebraic description of groups allowing only finitely many (left multiplication invariant) circular orders. In particular, they are all solvable groups with a specific semi-direct product…

We consider the group isomorphism problem: given two finite groups G and H specified by their multiplication tables, decide if G cong H. For several decades, the n^(log_p n + O(1)) generator-enumeration bound (where p is the smallest prime…

As a consequence of the classification of finite simple groups, the classification of permutation groups of prime degree is complete, apart from the question of when the natural degree $(q^n-1)/(q-1)$ of ${\rm PSL}_n(q)$ is prime. We…

A partition $\alpha$ is said to contain another partition (or pattern) $\mu$ if the Ferrers board for $\mu$ is attainable from $\alpha$ under removal of rows and columns. We say $\alpha$ avoids $\mu$ if it does not contain $\mu$. In this…

Let $E/\mathbb Q$ be an elliptic curve, and denote by $N(p)$ the number of $\mathbb{F}_p$-points of the reduction modulo $p$ of $E$. A conjecture of Koblitz, refined by Zywina, states that the number of primes $p \leq X$ at which $N(p)$ is…

It follows from the work of Artin and Hooley that, under assumption of the generalized Riemann hypothesis, the density of the set of primes $q$ for which a given non-zero rational number $r$ is a primitive root modulo $q$ can be written as…

When asymptotically analysing the summatory function of a $q$-regular sequence in the sense of Allouche and Shallit, the eigenvalues of the sum of matrices of the linear representation of the sequence determine the "shape" (in particular…

In this note, it is proved the existence of an infinitely generated multiplicative group consisting of entire functions that are, except for the constant function 1, hypercyclic with respect to the convolution operator associated to a given…

It is a theorem of Artin, Tits et al. that a finite simple group is determined by its order, with the exception of the groups (A_3(2), A_2(4)) and (B_n(q), C_n(q)) for n > 2, q odd. We investigate the situation for finite semisimple groups…
