In this article we investigate the positivity of Sylow branching coefficients for symmetric groups when $p = 3$. In particular, we complete the discussion begun by Giannelli and the author in arXiv:1712.02642 (J. Algebra) and developed in…

In this paper, we give a necessary and sufficient condition for the integrality of Cayley graphs over the dihedral group $D_n=\langle a,b\mid a^n=b^2=1,bab=a^{-1}\rangle$. Moreover, we also obtain some simple sufficient conditions for the…

A finite group $G$ is a DCI-group if, whenever $S$ and $S'$ are subsets of $G$ with the Cayley graphs Cay$(G,S)$ and Cay$(G,S')$ isomorphic, there exists an automorphism $\varphi$ of $G$ with $\varphi(S)=S'$. It is a CI-group if this…

In this paper we study the existence of at least one non-inner automorphism of order p in a finite normally constrained p-group when p is an odd prime.

A p-compact group, as defined by Dwyer and Wilkerson, is a purely homotopically defined p-local analog of a compact Lie group. It has long been the hope, and later the conjecture, that these objects should have a classification similar to…

The results of computer computations determining the automorphism groups of the groups of order 32$p$ for $p \geq 3$ are given in several tables. Presentations for the automorphism groups of the groups of order 32, which in many cases…

A perfect isometry is an important relation between blocks of finite groups as many information about blocks are preserved by it. If we consider the group of all perfect isometries between a block to itself then this gives another…

We study finite groups $G$ having a normal subgroup $H$ and $D \subset G \setminus H, D \cap D^{-1}=\emptyset,$ 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…

Let $\Gamma$ be an abelian group and $g \geq h \geq 2$ be integers. A set $A \subset \Gamma$ is a $C_h[g]$-set if given any set $X \subset \Gamma$ with $|X| = k$, and any set $\{ k_1 , \dots , k_g \} \subset \Gamma$, at least one of the…

It is shown for a simple ODE that it has many symmetry groups beyond its usual Lie group symmetries, when its generalized solutions are considered within the nowhere dense differential algebra of generalized functions.

Let $T_{4p}=\langle a,b\mid a^{2p}=1,a^p=b^2, b^{-1}ab=a^{-1}\rangle$ be the dicyclic group of order $4p$. A Cayley digraph over $T_{4p}$ is called a dicirculant digraph. In this paper, we calculate the number of (connected) dicirculant…

Since their introduction by Beilinson-Drinfeld \cite{BD,Opers1}, opers have seen several generalizations. In \cite{BSY} a higher rank analog was studied, named {generalized $B$-opers}, where the successive quotients of the oper filtration…

We prove that a finite coprime linear group G in characteristic p>=(|G|-1)/2 has a regular orbit. This bound on p is best possible. We also give an application to blocks with abelian defect groups.

Cyclic sieving is a well-known phenomenon where certain interesting polynomials, especially $q$-analogues, have useful interpretations related to actions and representations of the cyclic group. We propose a definition of sieving for an…

A graph is said to be a bi-Cayley graph over a group H if it admits H as a group of automorphisms acting semiregularly on its vertices with two orbits. For a prime p, we call a bi-Cayley graph over a metacyclic p-group a bi-p-metacirculant.…

The structure of the reduction of an admissible $G$-covering $Y \to X$ at primes $p$ dividing $|G|$ is investigated. Assume $|G|$ is not divisible by $p^2$ and the $p$-Sylow group is normal. Following Raynaud it is shown that there is a…

We provide a characterization of distal ordered abelian groups: An ordered abelian group is distal if and only if, for each prime number $p$, the sizes of ribs with respect to the "valuation" $\mathfrak{s}_p$ are uniformly bounded. This…

In this note we show that if $p$ is an odd prime and $G$ is a powerful $p$-group with $N\leq G^{p}$ and $N$ normal in $G$, then $N$ is powerfully nilpotent. An analogous result is proved for $p=2$ when $N\leq G^{4}$.

For an odd prime number $p$, we consider degree $p$ extensions $L/K$ of $p$-adic fields with normal closure $\widetilde{L}$ such that the Galois group of $\widetilde{L}/K$ is the dihedral group of order $2p$. We shall prove a complete…

Let $C_{d,k}$ be the largest number of vertices in a Cayley digraph of degree $d$ and diameter $k$, and let $BC_{d,k}$ be the largest order of a bipartite Cayley digraph for given $d$ and $k$. For every degree $d\geq2$ and for every odd $k$…
