For a wide family of formations $\mathfrak{F}$ (which includes Baer-local formations) it is proved that the $ \mathfrak{F}$-hypercenter of a permutation finite group can be computed in polynomial time. In particular, the algorithms for…

We show that a nonempty family of $n$-generated subgroups of a pro-$p$ group has a maximal element. This suggests that 'Noetherian Induction' can be used to discover new features of finitely generated subgroups of pro-$p$ groups. To…

Let $\fg$ be a symmetrizable Kac-Moody Lie algebra with the standard Cartan subalgebra $\fh$ and the Weyl group $W$. Let $P_+$ be the set of dominant integral weights. For $\lambda \in P_+$, let $L(\lambda)$ be the irreducible, integrable,…

This paper considers the problem of building saturated models for first-order graded logics. We define types as pairs of sets of formulas in one free variable which express properties that an element is expected, respectively, to satisfy…

Gives the most precise available description of the p-Frattini module for any p-perfect finite group G=G_0 (Thm. 2.8), and therefore of the groups G_{k,ab}, k \ge 0, from which we form the abelianized M(odular) T(ower). \S 4 includes a…

A group $G$ is said to be intersection-saturated if for every strictly positive integer $n$ and every map $c\colon \mathcal{P}(\{1,\dots, n\})\setminus \emptyset \rightarrow \{0,1\}$, one can find subgroups $H_1,\dots, H_n\leq G$ such that…

The description of nilpotent Chernikov $p$-groups with elementary tops is reduced to the study of tuples of skew-symmetric bilinear forms over the residue field $\mathbb{F}_p$. If $p\ne2$ and the bottom of the group only consists of $2$…

We study the maximal subgroups (also known as group $\mathcal{H}$-classes) of finitely presented special inverse monoids. We show that the maximal subgroups which can arise in such monoids are exactly the recursively presented groups, and…

Let $S$ be a semigroup, let $n\in\mathbb{N}$ be a positive natural number, let $A,B\subseteq S$, let $\mathcal{U},\mathcal{V}\in\beta S$ and let let $\mathcal{F}\subseteq\{f:S^{n}\rightarrow S\}$. We say that $A$ is $\mathcal{F}$-finitely…

Let $G$ be an arbitrary group. We show that if the Fitting subgroup of $G$ is nilpotent then it is definable. We show also that the class of groups whose Fitting subgroup is nilpotent of class at most $n$ is elementary. We give an example…

We show that every rank two $p$-group acts freely and smoothly on a product of two spheres. This follows from a more general construction: given a smooth action of a finite group $G$ on a manifold $M$, we construct a smooth free action on…

A sequence $\{a_n\}$ in a group $G$ is a {\em $T$-sequence} if there is a Hausdorff group topology $\tau$ on $G$ such that $a_n\stackrel\tau\longrightarrow 0$. In this paper, we provide several sufficient conditions for a sequence in an…

One of the aims of this paper is to obtain structural results showing that powerful subgroups are abundant in pro-$p$ groups admitting certain powerful quotients. In particular, we obtain an analogue of Baer's theorem for powerful pro-$p$…

We introduce the pseudovariety of finite groups $\mathbf{U} = \displaystyle\bigvee_{p \in \mathbb{P}} {\bf Ab}(p) \ast {\bf Ab}(p-1)$, where $\mathbb{P}$ is the set of all primes. We show that $\mathbf{U}$ consists of all finite…

We first give complete characterizations of the structure of finite group $G$ in which every subgroup (or non-nilpotent subgroup, or non-abelian subgroup) is a TI-subgroup or subnormal or has $p'$-order for a fixed prime divisor $p$ of…

When $(S,\mathcal{F},\mathcal{L})$ is a $p$-local finite group and $(T,\mathcal{E},\mathcal{\L}_0)$ is weakly normal in $(S,\mathcal{F},\mathcal{L})$ we show that a definition of $C_S(\mathcal{E})$ given by Aschbacher has a simple…

We study a particular class of representations from the fundamental groups of punctured spheres $\Sigma_{0,n}$ to the group $\text{PSL} (2,\mathbb R)$ (and their moduli spaces), that we call \emph{super-maximal}. Super-maximal…

We define a `tree of fusion systems' and give a sufficient condition for its completion to be saturated. We apply this result to enlarge an arbitrary fusion system by extending the automorphism groups of certain of its subgroups.

We show that any pseudofinite group with NIP theory and with a finite upper bound on the length of chains of centralisers is soluble-by-finite. In particular, any NIP rosy pseudofinite group is soluble-by-finite. This generalises, and…

Let G be a finite group, p a fixed prime and P a Sylow p-subgroup of G. In this short note we prove that if p is odd, G is p-nilpotent if and only if P controls fusion of cyclic groups of order p. For the case p=2, we show that G is…
