We prove that for every number k each countable infinite group $G$ admits a partition $G=A\cup B$ into two sets which are $k$-meager in the sense that for every $k$-element subset $K\subset G$ the sets $KA$ and $KB$ are not thick. The proof…

The object of this paper is to examine finite solvable groups whose integral group rings have only trivial central units.

For a finite group $G$ let $\sigma(G)$ (the "sum" of $G$) be the least number of proper subgroups of $G$ whose set-theoretical union is equal to $G$, and $\sigma(G)=\infty$ if $G$ is cyclic. We say that a group $G$ is $\sigma$-elementary if…

Let G be a finite group with identity e and H \neq \{e\} be a subgroup of G. The generalized non-coprime graph GAmma_{G,H} of G with respect to H is the simple undirected graph with G - \{e \}\) as the vertex set and two distinct vertices a…

Let $G$ be a finite $p$-group.

For any group G of order n, a subset A of G is said to be product-free if there is no solution of the equation ab=c with a,b,c in A. Previous results of Gowers showed that the size of any product-free subset of G is at most n/d^(1/3), where…

In [3] is was shown that for any group $G$ whose rank (i.e., minimal number of generators) is at most 3, and any finite index subgroup $H\leq G$ with index $[G:H]\geq rank(G)$, one can always find a left-right transversal of $H$ which…

Let G be an abelian group. For a subset A of G, Cyc(A) denotes the set of all elements x of G such that the cyclic subgroup generated by x is contained in A, and G is said to have the small subgroup generating property (abbreviated to SSGP)…

Let G be a split semi-simple linear algebraic group over a field, let P be a parabolic subgroup and let L be a line bundle on the projective homogeneous variety G/P. We give a simple condition on the class of L in Pic(G/P)/2 in terms of…

Let $p$ be a prime number. We compute the trivial source character tables of finite Frobenius groups $G$ with an abelian Frobenius complement $H$ and an elementary abelian Frobenius kernel of order $p^2$. More precisely, we deal with all…

Let $G$ be a simple algebraic group over an algebraically closed field. A closed subgroup $H$ of $G$ is called $G$-completely reducible ($G$-cr) if, whenever $H$ is contained in a parabolic subgroup $P$ of $G$, it is contained in a Levi…

We call a subset $A$ of the (additive) abelian group $G$ {\it $t$-independent} if for all non-negative integers $h$ and $k$ with $h+k \leq t$, the sum of $h$ (not necessarily distinct) elements of $A$ does not equal the sum of $k$ (not…

A \emph{finite cover} of a group $G$ is a finite collection $\mathcal{C}$ of proper subgroups of $G$ with the property that $\bigcup \mathcal{C} = G$. A finite group admits a finite cover if and only if it is noncyclic. More generally, it…

Suppose $G$ is a finitely presented group that is hyperbolic relative to ${\bf P}$ a finite collection of 1-ended finitely generated proper subgroups of $G$. If $G$ and the ${\bf P}$ are 1-ended and the boundary $\partial (G,{\bf P})$ has…

Babai and S\'os have asked whether there exists a constant c>0 such that every finite group G has a product-free subset of size at least c|G|: that is, a subset X that does not contain three elements x, y and z with xy=z. In this paper we…

Let $D$ be a non-commutative division ring, $G$ a subnormal subgroup of ${\mathrm GL}_n(D)$. In this note we show that if $G$ contains a non-abelian solvable maximal subgroup, then $n=1$ and $D$ is a cyclic algebra of prime degree over $F$.

Let \( G \) be a finite non-cyclic group. Define \( \mathrm{Cyc}(G) \) as the set of all elements \( a \in G \) such that for any $b\in G$, the subgroup \( \langle a, b \rangle \) is cyclic. The \emph{non-cyclic graph} $\Gamma(G)$ of \( G…

A gyrogroup is a nonassociative group-like structure modelled on the space of relativistically admissible velocities with a binary operation given by Einstein's velocity addition law. In this article, we present a few of groups sitting…

Let $G$ be a finite group. Let $\sigma =\{\sigma_{i} | i\in I\}$ be a partition of the set of all primes $\Bbb{P}$ and $n$ an integer. We write $\sigma (n) =\{\sigma_{i} |\sigma_{i}\cap \pi (n)\ne \emptyset \}$, $\sigma (G) =\sigma (|G|)$.…

A finite group $G$ is a called a DCI-group if any two isomorphic Cayley digraphs of $G$ are also isomorphic via an automorphism of $G$. If $G$ is a non-abelian generalised dihedral DCI-group, then Dobson, Muzychuk, and Spiga proved that $G$…
