We introduce two new classes of fusion categories which are obtained by a certain procedure from finite groups - weakly group-theoretical categories and solvable categories. These are fusion categories that are Morita equivalent to iterated…

In this paper, we show that each finite group $G$ containing at most $p^2$ Sylow $p$-subgroups for each odd prime number $p$, is a solvable group. In fact, we give a positive answer to the conjecture in \cite{Rob}.

The greatest power of a prime $p$ dividing the natural number $n$ will be denoted by $n_p$. Let $Ind_G(g)=|G:C_G(g)|$. Suppose that $G$ is a finite group and $p$ is a prime. We prove that if there exists an integer $\alpha>0$ such that…

We construct finitely generated groups with strong fixed point properties. Let $\mathcal{X}_{ac}$ be the class of Hausdorff spaces of finite covering dimension which are mod-$p$ acyclic for at least one prime $p$. We produce the first…

In this paper we study arithmetical and structural features of a finite group that possesses exactly two conjugacy class sizes that are composite numbers.

We show that for any natural number $n$ satisfying $n\equiv 4 \mod 8$ and $n\not\equiv 0 \mod 5$, and for any odd integer $t\geq \frac{n+6}{2}$ there are infinitely many Salem numbers ${\alpha}$ of degree $2t$ such that ${\alpha}^n-1$ is a…

When investigating the distribution of the Euler totient function, one encounters sets of primes P where if p is in P then r is in P for all r|(p-1). While it is easy to construct finite sets of such primes, the only infinite set known is…

The $i$-tuply $y$-densely divisible numbers were introduced by a Polymath project, as a weaker condition on the moduli than $y$-smoothness, in distribution estimates for primes in arithmetic progressions. We obtain the order of magnitude of…

In the theory of unitary group representations, a group is called type I if all factor representations are of type I, and by a celebrated theorem of James Glimm [Gli61b], the type I groups are precisely those groups for which the…

We show that in any sequence of a general type MMP, the minimal log discrepancy of singularities takes at most finitely many values, and the fibers of all the extremal contractions and flips belong to a bounded family. A key ingredient in…

Let $p$ be a an odd prime and let $G$ be a finite $p$-group with cyclic commutator subgroup $G'$. We prove that the exponent and the abelianization of the centralizer of $G'$ in $G$ are determined by the group algebra of $G$ over any field…

Let G be a semisimple, simply-connected algebraic group over an algebraically closed field of characteristic p > 0. We observe that the tensor product of the Steinberg module with a minuscule module is always indecomposable tilting.…

Let $R$ be a finite unital commutative ring. We introduce a new class of finite groups, which we call hereditary groups over $R$. Our main result states that if $G$ is a hereditary group over $R$ then a unital algebra isomorphism between…

We classify all $n$-dimensional reduced Cohen-Macaulay modular quotient variety $\mathbb{A}_\mathbb{F}^n/C_{2p}$ and study their singularities, where $p$ is a prime number and $C_{2p}$ denotes the cyclic group of order $2p$. In particular,…

For a prime number p, we construct a generating set for the ring of invariants for the p+1 dimensional indecomposable modular representation of a cyclic group of order p^2. We then use the constructed invariants to describe the…

Let $p\geq 5$ be a prime number. We generalize the results of E. de Shalit about supersingular $j$-invariants in characteristic $p$. We consider supersingular elliptic curves with a basis of $2$-torsion over $\overline{\mathbf{F}}_p$, or…

Let $A$ be a simple abelian variety over a number field $k$ such that $\operatorname{End}(A)$ is noncommutative. We show that $A$ splits modulo all but finitely many primes of $k$. We prove this by considering the subalgebras of…

We establish uniform bounds for the sup-norms of modular forms of arbitrary real weight $k$ with respect to a finite index subgroup $\Gamma$ of $\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{Z})$. We also prove corresponding bounds for the supremum over a compact…

What are all rings $R$ for which $R^*$ (the group of invertible elements of $R$ under multiplication) is an elementary abelian $p$-group? We answer this question for finite-dimensional commutative $k$-algebras, finite commutative rings,…
