A group $G$ is said to have restricted centralizers if for each $g \in G$ the centralizer $C_G(g)$ either is finite or has finite index in $G$. Shalev showed that a profinite group with restricted centralizers is virtually abelian. We take…

Let $G:= (C^*)^k\times SL_2(C)$ act linearly on a vector space or its projectivisation. We obtain an effective criterion to detect whether a number of orbits in an orbit-closure is finite or not.

Let $G$ be a finite abelian group. Ferraz, Guerreiro and Polcino Milies prove that the number of $G$-equivalence classes of minimal abelian codes is equal to the number of $G$-isomorphism classes of subgroups for which corresponding…

We show that the presence of a non-contractible one-periodic orbit of a Hamiltonian diffeomorphism of a connected closed symplectic manifold $(M,\omega)$ implies the existence of infinitely many non-contractible simple periodic orbits,…

We present definitions of homology groups associated to a family of amalgamation functors. We show that if the generalized amalgamation properties hold, then the homology groups are trivial. We compute the group H_2 for strong types in…

Let $G$ be a finitely presented group, and let $H$ be a subgroup of $G$. We prove that if $H$ is acylindrically hyperbolic and existentially closed in $G$, then $G$ is acylindrically hyperbolic. As a corollary, any finitely presented group…

Let $\{G_i :i\in\N\}$ be a family of finite Abelian groups. We say that a subgroup $G\leq \prod\limits_{i\in \N}G_i$ is \emph{order controllable} if for every $i\in \mathbb{N}$ there is $n_i\in \mathbb{N}$ such that for each $c\in G$, there…

Let $A$ be a rational function of degree $n\geq 2$. Let us denote by $ G(A)$ the group of M\"obius transformations $\sigma$ such that $ A\circ \sigma=\nu_{\sigma} \circ A$ for some M\"obius transformations $\nu_{\sigma}$, and by $\Sigma(A)$…

Let $G$ be a finite transitive group on a set $\Omega$, let $\alpha\in \Omega$ and let $G_\alpha$ be the stabilizer of the point $\alpha$ in $G$. In this paper, we are interested in the proportion $$\frac{|\{\omega\in \Omega\mid \omega…

According to Li, Nicholson and Zan, a group $G$ is said to be morphic if, for every pair $N_{1}, N_{2}$ of normal subgroups, each of the conditions $G/N_{1} \cong N_{2}$ and $G/N_{2} \cong N_{1}$ implies the other. Finite, homocyclic…

Let $G$ be some metabelian $2$-group satisfying the condition $G/G'\simeq \mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z}\times\mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z}\times\mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z}$. In this paper, we construct all the subgroups of $G$ of index $2$ or $4$, we give the…

Let $G$ be a connected reductive algebraic group over an algebraically closed field ${\bf k}$ of characteristic not equal to 2, let $\B$ be the variety of all Borel subgroups of $G$, and let $K$ be a symmetric subgroup of $G$. Fixing a…

A number of conditions were found under which a sharply doubly transitive permutation group has an abelian normal divider.

Presentations for the holomorphs of abelian groups of the form $C_{p^n} \times 1^{m}$ for $p$=2 or an odd prime are given. These presentations extend the results given in Burnside's well-known text on finite groups on the holomorphs for the…

Let G be a linear algebraic group, H a subgroup of G and X a G-variety. This paper explores the connection between G-orbits and H-orbits in X, concentrating in particular on the question of when we have the implications G.x closed in X…

For each element $u$ in a finite group $G$ define a map $\theta_u\colon G\to G$ by $\theta_u(g)=[g^{-u},g]$ and set $\Theta_G(u)=\{g\in G\mid \theta_u^n(g)=g \hbox{ for some } n>0\}$. Then $\theta_u$ induces a permutation of $\Theta_G(u)$;…

Let A be a subset of an abelian group G. We say that A is sum-free if there do not exist x,y and z in A satisfying x + y = z. We determine, for any G, the cardinality of the largest sum-free subset of G. This equals c(G)|G| where c(G) is a…

It is argued that the dual transformation of non-Abelian monopoles occurring in a system with gauge symmetry breaking G -> H is to be defined by setting the low-energy H system in Higgs phase, so that the dual system is in confinement…

Previous work showed that every pair of nontrivial Bernoulli shifts over a fixed free group are orbit equivalent. In this paper, we prove that if $G_1,G_2$ are nonabelian free groups of finite rank then every nontrivial Bernoulli shift over…

For a group $G,$ let $\Gamma(G)$ denote the graph defined on the elements of $G$ in such a way that two distinct vertices are connected by an edge if and only if they generate $G$. Moreover let $\Gamma^*(G)$ be the subgraph of $\Gamma(G)$…
