We characterize affine semigroups having one Betti element and we compute some relevant non-unique factorization invariants for these semigroups. As an example, we particularize our description to numerical semigroups.

A subgroup of a finite group G is said to be second maximal if it is maximal in every maximal subgroup of G that contains it. A question which has received considerable attention asks: can every positive integer occur as the number of the…

We study quasi-semisimple elements of disconnected reductive algebraic groups over an algebraically closed field. We describe their centralizers, define isolated and quasi-isolated quasi-semisimple elements and classify their conjugacy…

We determine for which known finite simple groups $G$ and which primes $p$ the $p$-fusion system of $G$ is simple. This means first collecting together the results that were already known (and correcting two errors made in an earlier study…

We prove that a uniquely 2-divisible group that admits an almost regular involutory automorphism is solvable.

A finite group $G$ is called $k$-factorizable if for any factorization $|G|=a_1\cdots a_k$ with $a_i>1$ there exist subsets $A_i$ of $G$ with $|A_i|=a_i$ such that $G=A_1\cdots A_k$. We say that $G$ is \textit{multifold-factorizable} if $G$…

A near-group category is an additively semisimple category with a product such that all but one of the simple objects is invertible. We classify braided structures on near-group categories, and give explicit numerical formulas for their…

We give a new characterization of partial groups as a subcategory of symmetric (simplicial) sets. This subcategory has an explicit reflection, which permits one to compute colimits in the category of partial groups. We also introduce the…

We prove a factorization-concentration result for characters of symmetric groups. This is then applied to the asymptotic behaviour of the decomposition of the tensor representations. There are connections with the Pastur-Marcenko…

This paper determines almost symmetric numerical semigroups with maximal reduced type completely. In addition, this paper classifies MED-semigroups with maximal reduced type.

An example of two $\mathbb R$-factorizable groups whose product is not $\mathbb R$-factorizable is constructed. One of these groups is second-countable and the other Lindel\"of to any finite power.

We start with elementary algebraic theory of factorization of linear ordinary differential equations developed in the period 1880-1930. After exposing these classical results we sketch more sophisticated algorithmic approaches developed in…

We develop a structure theory of connected solvable spherical subgroups in semisimple algebraic groups. Based on this theory, we obtain an explicit classification of all such subgroups up to conjugation.

In this short note we give a formula for the factorization number $F_2(G)$ of a finite rank $3$ abelian $p$-group $G$. This extends a result in our previous work \cite{9}.

In this paper, we summarize the work on the characterization of finite simple groups and the study on finite groups with the set of element orders and two orders (the order of group and the set of element orders). Some related topics, and…

We show that a "mate'' $B$ of a set $A$ in a near-factorization $(A,B)$ of a finite group $G$ is unique. Further, we describe how to compute the mate $B$ very efficiently using an explicit formula for $B$. We use this approach to give an…

We describe certain almost-simple algebraic supergroups over an algebraically closed field of odd or zero characteristic. In addition to supergroups with simple Lie superalgebras from Kac's theorem, we construct new supergroups whose Lie…

We categorify one half of the small quantum sl(2) at a prime root of unity. An extension of this construction to an arbitrary simply-laced case is proposed.

The full description of the stable factor-representations of the infinite hyperoctahedral group up to quasi-equivalence obtained.

We prove that if $G$ is a finite simple group which is the unit group of a ring, then $G$ is isomorphic to either (a) a cyclic group of order 2; (b) a cyclic group of prime order $2^k -1$ for some $k$; or (c) a projective special linear…
