We study the nonabelian composition factors of a finite group $G$ assumed to admit an $\operatorname{Aut}(G)$-orbit of length at least $\rho|G|$, for a given $\rho\in\left(0,1\right]$. Our main results are the following: The orders of the…

Let $G$ be a Lie group $G$ with representation $\rho$ on a real simple $G$-module $\mathbb{V}$. We will call the orbits of the induced action of $\rho$ on the projectivization $P\mathbb{V}$ the projective orbits, and projective orbits of…

A celebrated result of J. Thompson says that if a finite group $G$ has a fixed-point-free automorphism of prime order, then $G$ is nilpotent. The main purpose of this note is to extend this result to finite inverse semigroups. An earlier…

In the class of reduced Abelian torsion-free groups $G$ of finite rank, we describe TI-groups, this means that every associative ring on $G$ is filial. If every associative multiplication on $G$ is the zero multiplication, then $G$ is…

For $\beta\in{\mathbb Z}$, let $G(\beta)=\langle A,B\,|\, A^{[A,B]}=A,\, B^{[B,A]}=B^\beta\rangle$ be the infinite Macdonald group, and set $C=[A,B]$. Then $G(\beta)$ is a nilpotent polycyclic group of the form $\langle…

Let R be any ring (with 1), \Gamma a group and R\Gamma the corresponding group ring. Let Ext_{R\Gamma}^{*}(M,M) be the cohomology ring associated to the R\Gamma-module M. Let H be a subgroup of finite index of \Gamma. The following is a…

We prove that a finitely generated Lie algebra $L$ such that (i) every commutator in generators is ad-nilpotent, and (ii) $ L$ satisfies a polynomial identity, is nilpotent. As a corollary we get that a finitely generated residually-$p$…

We give the number of nilpotent orbits in the Lie algebras of orthogonal groups under the adjoint action of the groups over $\tF_{2^n}$. Let $G$ be an adjoint algebraic group of type $B,C$ or $D$ defined over an algebraically closed field…

We study the groups $G$ with the curious property that there exists an element $k\in G$ and a function $f\colon G\to G$ such that $f(xk)=xf(x)$ holds for all $x\in G$. This property arose from the study of near-rings and input-output…

We exhibit normal subgroups of a free nilpotent group F of rank two and class three, which have isomorphic finite quotients but are not conjugate under any automorphism of F.

We study the automorphisms of a function field of genus $g\geq 2$ over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p>0$. More precisely, we show that the order of a nilpotent subgroup $G$ of its automorphism group is bounded by $16…

We provide sufficient conditions for a free amalgamated product of torsionfree nilpotent groups to be residually nilpotent. We also characterise the residual nilpotence of certain higher-dimensional amalgams of unipotent groups over the…

The \emph{power graph} $P(G)$ of a group $G$ is the graph whose vertex set is $G$, with $x$ and $y$ joined if one is a power of the other; the \emph{directed power graph} $\vec{P}(G)$ has the same vertex set, with an arc from $x$ to $y$ if…
