We present a characterization of finite permutation groups which contain a transitive dihedral subgroup.
We prove two results about quantum doubles of finite groups over the complex field. The first result is the integrality theorem for higher Frobenius-Schur indicators for wreath product groups S_N#A^N, where A is a finite abelian group. A…
It is known that the notion of a transitive subgroup of a permutation group $P$ extends naturally to the subsets of $P$. We study transitive subsets of the wreath product $G \wr S_n$, where $G$ is a finite abelian group. This includes the…
The physical interpretation of the main notions of the quantum group theory (coproduct, representations and corepresentations, action and coaction) is discussed using the simplest examples of $q$-deformed objects (quantum group…
Let $G$ be a finite group. In a famous article, Quillen describes an $\mathrm{F}$-isomorphism between commutative $\mathbb{N}$-graded $\mathbb{F}_{2}$-algebras $$\mathrm{q}_{G}:\mathrm{H}^{*}(G;\mathbb{F}_{2})\to\mathrm{L}(G)\ ,$$ with…
Using the multi-parametric deformation of the algebra of functions on $ \GL{n+1} $ and the universal enveloping algebra $ \U{\igl{n+1}} $, we construct the multi-parametric quantum groups $ \IGLq{n} $ and $ \Uq{\igl{n}} $.
This article began as a study of the structure of infinite permutation groups G in which point stabilisers are finite and all infinite normal subgroups are transitive. That led to two variations. One is the generalisation in which point…
Let $\sigma =\{\sigma_{i} | i\in I\}$ be some partition of the set of all primes $\Bbb{P}$ and let $G$ be a finite group. Then $G$ is said to be $\sigma $-full if $G$ has a Hall $\sigma _{i}$-subgroup for all $i$. A subgroup $A$ of $G$ is…
We describe all closed permutation groups which act on the set of vectors of a countable vector space $V$ over a prime field of odd order and which contain all automorphisms of $V$. In particular, we prove that their number is finite. These…
Every mathematician is familiar with the beautiful structure of finite commutative groups. What is less well known is that finite commutative semigroups also have a neat and well-described structure. We prove this in an efficient fashion.…
We review known real forms of the quantum orthogonal groups SO_q(N). New *-conjugations are then introduced and we contruct all real forms of quantum orthogonal groups. We thus give an RTT formulation of the *-conjugations on SO_q(N) that…
We review the construction of the multiparametric inhomogeneous orthogonal quantum group ISO_qr(N) as a projection from SO_qr(N+2), and recall the conjugation that for N=4 leads to the quantum Poincare group. We study the properties of the…
Motivated by the vast literature of quantum automorphism groups of graphs, we define and study quantum automorphism groups of matroids. A key feature of quantum groups is that there are many quantizations of a classical group, and this…
Quantum-mechanical concepts can be formulated in constructive finite terms without loss of their empirical content if we replace a general unitary group by a unitary representation of a finite group. Any linear representation of a finite…
Given a permutation group $G$ on a finite set $\Omega$, let $G^{(k)}$ denote the $k$-closure of $G$, that is, the largest permutation group on $\Omega$ having the same orbits in the induced action on $\Omega^k$ as $G$. Recall that a group…
Let $A$ be an arbitrary symmetrizable Cartan matrix of rank $r$, and ${\bf n}={\bf n_+}$ be the standard maximal nilpotent subalgebra in the Kac-Moody algebra associated with $A$ (thus, ${\bf n}$ is generated by $E_1,\ldots,E_r$ subject to…
We produce 2-representations of the positive part of affine quantum enveloping algebras on their finite-dimensional counterparts in type $A_n$. These 2-representations naturally extend the right-multiplication 2-representation of…
We study the Witten--Reshetikhin--Turaev SU(2) invariant for the Seifert manifold $S^3/\Gamma$ where $\Gamma$ is a finite subgroup of SU(2). We show that the WRT invariants can be written in terms of the Eichler integral of the modular…
A review of the multiparametric linear quantum group GL_qr(N), its real forms, its dual algebra U(gl_qr(N)) and its bicovariant differential calculus is given in the first part of the paper. We then construct the (multiparametric) linear…
This is a review of concepts of noncommutative supergeometry - namely Hilbert superspace, C*-superalgebra, quantum supergroup - and corresponding results. In particular, we present applications of noncommutative supergeometry in harmonic…
