Over any partially ordered abelian group whose positive cone is closed in an appropriate sense and has finitely many faces, modules that satisfy a weak finiteness condition admit finite primary decompositions. This conclusion rests on the…

Let $G$ be an additive finite abelian group. A sequence over $G$ is called a minimal zero-sum sequence if the sum of its terms is zero and no proper subsequence has this property. Davenport's constant of $G$ is the maximum of the lengths of…

We give a criterion for a group homomorphism on a valued abelian group to be surjective and to preserve spherical completeness. We apply this to give a criterion for the existence of integration on a valued differential field. Further, we…

The lattice of fully invariant subgroups of an abelian $p$--group and the lattice of ideals of its endomorphism ring are classified by systems of cardinal invariants.

In this note, we give explicit expressions of Gauss sums for general (resp. special) linear groups over finite fields, which involves Gauss sums (resp. Kloosterman sums). The key ingredient is averaging such sums over Borel subgroups. As…

We deal with the existence of universal members in a given cardinality for several classes. First we deal with classes of Abelian groups, specifically with the existence of universal members in cardinalities which are strong limit singular…

Given a fine abelian group grading on a finite dimensional simple Lie algebra over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, with universal grading group $G$, it is shown that the induced grading by the free group $G/\tor(G)$ is…

We study sum-free sets in sparse random subsets of even order abelian groups. In particular, we determine the sharp threshold for the following property: the largest such set is contained in some maximum-size sum-free subset of the group.…

We consider a class K of structures e.g. trees with omega +1 levels, metric spaces and mainly, classes of Abelian groups like the one mentioned in the title and the class of reduced separable (Abelian) p-groups. We say M in K is universal…

In this paper the author considers a particular type of polynomials with integer coefficients, consisting of a perfect power and two norm forms of abelian number fields with coprime discriminants. It is shown that such a polynomial…

By studying lattices of normal subgroups, especially those of the socle and radical, an expression is obtained for the minimal number of conjugacy classes required to generate a group. This number is shown to be captured by the character…

We prove an equidistribution result for the zeros of polynomials with integer coefficients and simple zeros. Specifically, we show that the normalized zero measures associated with a sequence of such polynomials, having small height…

We prove that every infinite, discrete abelian group admits a pair of $I_0$ sets whose union is not $I_0$. In particular, this implies that every such group contains a Sidon set that is not $I_{0}$.

For every finite-to-one map $\lambda:\Gamma\to\Gamma$ and for every abelian group $K$, the generalized shift $\sigma_\lambda$ of the direct sum $\bigoplus_\Gamma K$ is the endomorphism defined by…

In this paper, we obtain a characterization of short normal sequences over a finite Abelian p-group, thus answering positively a conjecture of Gao for a variety of such groups. Our main result is deduced from a theorem of Alon, Friedland…

Using elementary means, we prove several identities involving the M\"obius function, generalizing in the multidimensional case well-known formulas coming from convolution arguments.

We prove several long-standing conjectures by Chen--Nagano on cohomological descriptions of the cardinalities of maximal antipodal sets in symmetric spaces. We actually extend these conjectures to the setting of generalised symmetric spaces…

We give a classification of nullity classes (or torsion classes) in an abelian category by forming a spectrum of equivalence classes of premonoform objects. This is parallel to Kanda's classification of Serre subcategories.

The string number of self-maps arose in the context of algebraic entropy and it can be viewed as a kind of combinatorial entropy function. Later on its values for endomorphisms of abelian groups were calculated in full generality. We study…

A famous conjecture attributed to Dardano-Dikranjan-Rinauro-Salce states that any uniformly fully inert subgroup of a given group is commensurable with a fully invariant subgroup (see, respectively, [5] and [6]). In this short note, we…
