This survey studies pairs $(G,\mathcal{P})$ with $G$ a finitely generated group and $\mathcal{P}$ a (finite) collection of subgroups of $G$. We explore the notion of quasi-isometry of such pairs and the notion of a qi-characteristic…

Given a group $G$ and a subgroup $H$, we let $\mathcal{O}_G(H)$ denote the lattice of subgroups of $G$ containing $H$. This paper provides a classification of the subgroups $H$ of $G$ such that $\mathcal{O}_{G}(H)$ is Boolean of rank at…

We study the intersection lattice of the arrangement $\mathcal{A}^G$ of subspaces fixed by subgroups of a finite linear group $G$. When $G$ is a reflection group, this arrangement is precisely the hyperplane reflection arrangement of $G$.…

Feit and Fine derived a generating function for the number of ordered pairs of commuting n by n matrices over the finite field F_q. This has been reproved and studied by Bryan and Morrison from the viewpoint of motivic Donaldson-Thomas…

Let $H$ be a normal subgroup of a group $G$. The normal subgroup based power graph $\Gamma_H(G)$ of $G$ is the simple undirected graph with vertex set $V(\Gamma_H(G))= (G\setminus H)\cup \{e\}$ and two distinct vertices $a$ and $b$ are…

If $H$ is a subgroup of a compact group $G$, the probability that a random element of $H$ commutes with a random element of $G$ is denoted by $Pr(H,G)$. Let $\langle g\rangle$ stand for the monothetic subgroup generated by an element $g\in…

It is well known that the proportion of pairs of elements of $\operatorname{SL}(n,q)$ which generate the group tends to $1$ as $q^n\to \infty$. This was proved by Kantor and Lubotzky using the classification of finite simple groups. We give…

The classification of the $2$-designs with $\lambda=2$ admitting a flag-transitive automorphism groups with socle $PSL(2,q)$ is completed by settling the two open cases in \cite{ABDT}. The result is achieved by using conics and hyperovals…

We prove that for a connected, semisimple linear Lie group $G$ the spaces of generating pairs of elements or subgroups are well-behaved in a number of ways: the set of pairs of elements generating a dense subgroup is Zariski-open in the…

For a symmetric pair $(G,H)$ of reductive groups we construct a family of intertwining operators between spherical principal series representations of $G$ and $H$ that are induced from parabolic subgroups satisfying certain compatibility…

We obtain many results and solve some problems about feebly compact paratopological groups. We obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for such a group to be topological. One of them is the quasiregularity. We prove that each…

Freyd's Generating Hypothesis is an important problem in topology with deep structural consequences for finite stable homotopy. Due to its complexity some recent work has examined analogous questions in various other triangulated…

We study the finitely generated Hausdorff spectrum of spinal automorphism groups acting on rooted trees. Given any $\alpha \in [0,1]$, we construct a branch group $G_\alpha$ such that $G_\alpha$ has a finitely generated subgroup $H$ where…

Supersolubility of a finite group $G=\langle A,B\rangle$ with the nilpotent derived subgroup $G^\prime$ is established under the condition that the subgroups $A$ and $B$ are both subnormal and supersoluble.

The two parameter quantum group G_r,s is generated by five elements, four of which form a Hopf subalgebra isomorphic to GL_q(2), while the fifth generator relates G_r,s to GL_p,q(2). We construct explicitly the dual algebra of G_r,s and…

A finite group $G$ is \emph{coprimely-invariably generated} if there exists a set of generators $\{g_1, ..., g_u\}$ of $G$ with the property that the orders $|g_1|, ..., |g_u|$ are pairwise coprime and that for all $x_1, ..., x_u \in G$ the…

We show that an element w of a free group F on n generators defines a surjective word map of PSL(2,C)^n onto PSL(2,C) unless w belongs to the second derived subgroup of F. We also describe certain words maps that are surjective on SL(2,C) x…

We strengthen Marshall Hall's Theorem to show that free groups are locally extended residually alternating. Let F be any free group of rank at least two, let H be a finitely generated subgroup of infinite index in F and let {g_1,...,g_n} be…

Let $G$ be a finite group, let $H$ be a core-free subgroup and let $b(G,H)$ denote the base size for the action of $G$ on $G/H$. Let $\alpha(G)$ be the number of conjugacy classes of core-free subgroups $H$ of $G$ with $b(G,H) \geqslant 3$.…

A group $G$ is self-similar if it admits a triple $(G,H,f)$ where $H$ is a subgroup of $G$ and $f: H \to G$ a simple homomorphism, that is, the only subgroup $K$ of $H$, normal in $G$ and $f$-invariant ($K^f \leq K$) is trivial. The group…
