We show that many $2$-dimensional Artin groups are residually finite. This includes $3$-generator Artin groups with labels $\geq 4$ except for $(2m+1, 4,4)$ for any $m\geq 2$. As a first step towards residual finiteness we show that these…

In this paper we classify all finite 2-groups of class 2 for which every automorphism of order 2 leaving the Frattini subgroup elementwise fixed is inner. We prove that every such group G is isomorphic to Q(n; r) = <a, b| a^{2n}= b^{2r}= 1;…

A group $G$ is said to be totally $2$-closed if in each of its faithful permutation representations, say on a set $\Omega$, $G$ is the largest subgroup of $\mathrm{Sym}(\Omega)$ which leaves invariant each of the $G$-orbits for the induced…

We prove several reality properties for finite simple orthogonal groups. For any prime power $q$ and $m\geq 1$, we show that all real conjugacy classes are strongly real in the simple groups $\mathrm{P}\Omega^{\pm}(4m+2,q), m \geq 1$,…

New families of $E$-functions are described in the context of the compact simple Lie groups O(5) and G(2). These functions of two real variables generalize the common exponential functions and for each group, only one family is currently…

There are several variants of the inverse Galois problem which involve restrictions on ramification. In this paper we give sufficient conditions that a given finite group $G$ occurs infinitely often as a Galois group over the rationals…

In this article, we prove that every compact simple Lie group $SO(n)$ for $n\geq 10$ admits at least $2\left([\frac{n-1}{3}]-2\right)$ non-naturally reductive left-invariant Einstein metrics.

We study the finite solvable groups $G$ in which every real element has prime power order. We divide our examination into two parts: the case $\textbf{O}_2(G)>1$ and the case $\textbf{O}_2(G)=1$. Specifically we proved that if…

In this paper we describe the Jordan-Holder series of the standard modules over the rational Cherednik algebras associated with the dihedral group. In particular, we compute the characters of the irreducible representations from the…

We construct the first examples of finitely presented simple groups of orientation-preserving homeomorphisms of the real line. Our examples are also of type $F_{\infty}$, have infinite geometric dimension, and admit a nontrivial homogeneous…

We prove:(1) the existence, for every integer n > 3, of a noncompact smooth n-dimensional topological manifold whose diffeomorphism group contains an isomorphic copy of every finitely presented group; (2) a finiteness theorem on finite…

We prove Horrocks' theorem for the odd elementary orthogonal group, which gives a decomposition of an orthogonal matrix with entries from a polynomial ring $R[X]$, over a commutative ring $R$ in which 2 is invertible, as a product of an…

We describe the ring of invariants for the finite orthogonal groups in odd dimension and even characteristic acting on the defining representation. We construct a minimal algebra generating set and describe the relations among the…

A $k$-tuple $(H_1, \ldots, H_k)$ of core-free subgroups of a finite group $G$ is said to be regular if $G$ has a regular orbit on the Cartesian product $G/H_1 \times \cdots \times G/H_k$. The regularity number of $G$, denoted $R(G)$, is the…

This note deals with the computation of the factorization number $F_2(G)$ of a finite group $G$. By using the M\"{o}bius inversion formula, explicit expressions of $F_2(G)$ are obtained for two classes of finite abelian groups, improving…

Using the construction of a nonorientable Curtis-Tits group of type $\tilde A_n$, we obtain new explicit families of expander graphs of valency five for unitary groups over finite fields.

A parametrization of irreducible representations associated with a regular adjoint orbit of a classical group over finite quotient rings of the ring of integer of a non-dyadic non-archimedean local field is presented. The parametrization is…

We classify irreducible unitary representations of the group of all infinite matrices over a $p$-adic field ($p\ne 2$) with integer elements equipped with a natural topology. Any irreducible representation passes through a group $GL$ of…

It is known that any $m$-gonal form of $\rank n \ge 5$ is almost regular. In this article, we study the sufficiently large integers which are represented by (almost regular) $m$-gonal forms of $\rank n \ge 6$.

We consider the quotient group $T(G)$ of the multiple holomorph by the holomorph of a finite $p$-group $G$ of class two for an odd prime $p$. By work of the first-named author, we know that $T(G)$ contains a cyclic subgroup of order…
