A semigroup $S$ is called a permutable semigroup if $\alpha \circ \beta =\beta \circ \alpha$ is satified for all congruences $\alpha$ and $\beta$ of $S$. A semigroup is called a Putcha semigroup if it is a semilattice of archimedean…

For any topological group $G$ the dual object $\hat G$ is defined as the set of equivalence classes of irreducible unitary representations of $G$ equipped with the Fell topology. If $G$ is compact, $\hat G$ is discrete. In an earlier paper…

Let $G$ be a finite group. If $\Gamma$ is a permutation group with $G_{right}\leq\Gamma\leq Sym(G)$ and $\mathcal{S}$ is the set of orbits of the stabilizer of the identity $e=e_{G}$ in $\Gamma$, then the $\mathbb{Z}$-submodule…

A p-local finite group consists of a finite p-group S, together with a pair of categories which encode ``conjugacy'' relations among subgroups of S, and which are modelled on the fusion in a Sylow p-subgroup of a finite group. It contains…

A locally compact group $G$ is compact if and only if $L^1(G)$ is an ideal in $L^1(G)^{**}$, and the Fourier algebra $A(G)$ of $G$ is an ideal in $A(G)^{**}$ if and only if $G$ is discrete. On the other hand, $G$ is discrete if and only if…

We prove that a semiregular topological space $X$ is completely regular if and only if its topology is generated by a normal quasi-uniformity. This characterization implies that each regular paratopological group is completely regular. This…

Suppose $G$ is a 1-ended finitely generated group that is hyperbolic relative to P a finite collection of 1-ended finitely generated subgroups. Our main theorem states that if the boundary $\partial (G, P)$ has no cut point, then $G$ has…

We say A is a quasi-normal subgroup of the group G if the commensurator of A in G is all of G. We develop geometric versions of commensurators in finitely generated groups. In particular, g is an element of the commensurator of A in G iff…

Let $w$ be a multilinear commutator word. In the present paper we describe recent results that show that if $G$ is a profinite group in which all $w$-values are contained in a union of finitely (or in some cases countably) many subgroups…

A subgroup $H$ of a group $G$ is confined if the $G$-orbit of $H$ under conjugation is bounded away from the trivial subgroup in the space $\operatorname{Sub}(G)$ of subgroups of $G$. We prove a commutator lemma for confined subgroups. For…

We define the notion of preGarside group slightly lightening the definition of Garside group so that all Artin-Tits groups are preGarside groups. This paper intends to give a first basic study on these groups. Firstly, we introduce the…

We characterise the strictly closed left invariant C*-subalgebras of the C*-algebra C_b(G) of bounded continuous functions on a locally compact group G. On the dual side, we characterise the strictly closed invariant C*-subalgebras of the…

This paper is a contribution to the study of the subgroup structure of exceptional algebraic groups over algebraically closed fields of arbitrary characteristic. Following Serre, a closed subgroup of a semisimple algebraic group $G$ is…

A topological group is locally pseudocompact if it contains a non-empty open set with pseudocompact closure. In this note, we prove that if G is a group with the property that every closed subgroup of G is locally pseudocompact, then G_0 is…

In this article, we introduce the study of a class of finite groups $G$ which admits a subgroup which intersects all non-trivial subgroups of $G$. We also explore a subclass of it consisting of all groups $G$ in which the prime order…

For any finitely generated, non-elementary, torsion-free group $G$ that is hyperbolic relative to $\mathbb P$, we show that there exists a group $G^*$ containing $G$ such that $G^*$ is hyperbolic relative to $\mathbb P$ and $G$ is not…

We formulate and prove a version of the Segal Conjecture for infinite groups. For finite groups it reduces to the original version. The condition that G is finite is replaced in our setting by the assumption that there exists a finite model…

The covering number of a group $G$, denoted by $\sigma(G)$, is the size of a minimal collection of proper subgroups of $G$ whose union is $G$. We investigate which integers are covering numbers of groups. We determine which integers $129$…

In the paper we characterize the class of finite solvable groups by two-variable identities in a way similar to the characterization of finite nilpotent groups by Engel identities. More precisely, a sequence of words $u_1,...,u_n,... $ is…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $f:G \to {\mathbb C}$ be a function. For a non-empty finite subset $Y\subset G$, let $I_Y(f)$ denote the average of $f$ over $Y$. Then, $I_G(f)$ is the average of $f$ over $G$. Using the decomposition of $f$…
