A subset S of a finite group G invariably generates G if G = <hsg(s) j s 2 Si > for each choice of g(s) 2 G; s 2 S. We give a tight upper bound on the minimal size of an invariable generating set for an arbitrary finite group G. In response…
A subset S of a group G invariably generates G if G = <s^(g(s)) | s in S> for each choice of g(s) in G, s in S. In this paper we study invariable generation of infinite groups, with emphasis on linear groups. Our main result shows that a…
A group $G$ is invariably generated (IG) if there is a subset $S \subseteq G$ such that for every subset $S' \subseteq G$, obtained from $S$ by replacing each element with a conjugate, $S'$ generates $G$. $G$ is finitely invariably…
A subset $S$ of a group $G$ invariably generates $G$ if $G= \langle s^{g(s)} | s \in S\rangle$ for every choice of $g(s) \in G,s \in S$. We say that a group $G$ is invariably generated if such $S$ exists, or equivalently if $S=G$ invariably…
A group $G$ is invariably generated if there exists a subset $S \subseteq G$ such that, for every choice $g_s \in G$ for $s \in S$, the group $G$ is generated by $\{ s^{g_s} \mid s \in S \}$. In [GGJ16] Gelander, Golan and Juschenko showed…
Let $G$ be a finite group. In order to determine the smallest cardinality $d(G)$ of a generating set of $G$ and a generating set with this cardinality, one should repeat many times the test whether a subset of $G$ of small cardinality…
Let $d(G)$ be the smallest cardinality of a generating set of a finite group $G.$ We give a complete classification of the finite groups with the property that, whenever $ \langle x_1, \dots, x_{d(G)} \rangle = \langle y_1, \dots, y_{d(G)}…
Invariable generation is a topic that has predominantly been studied for finite groups. In 2014, Kantor, Lubotzky, and Shalev produced extensive tools for investigating invariable generation for infinite groups. Since their paper, various…
Let $G$ be a group. Then $S\subseteq G$ is an invariable generating set of $G$ if every subset $S'$ obtained from $S$ by replacing each element with a conjugate is also a generating set of $G$. We investigate invariable generation among key…
A group $G$ is invariably generated by a subset $S$ of $G$ if $G= s^{g(s)} \mid s\in S$ for each choice of $g(s) \in G$, $s \in S$. Answering two questions posed by Kantor, Lubotzky and Shalev, we prove that the free prosoluble group of…
Given an algebra $F[H]^G$ of polynomial invariants of an action of the group $G$ over the vector space $H$, a subset $S$ of $F[H]^G$ is called separating if $S$ separates all orbits that can be separated by $F[H]^G$. A minimal separating…
A smallest generating set of a semigroup is a generating set of the smallest cardinality. Similarly, an irredundant generating set $X$ is a generating set such that no proper subset of $X$ is also a generating set. A semigroup $S$ is…
Let $a$ be a non-invertible transformation of a finite set and let $G$ be a group of permutations on that same set. Then $\genset{G, a}\setminus G$ is a subsemigroup, consisting of all non-invertible transformations, in the semigroup…
A finite group $G$ is coprimely-invariably generated if there exists a set of generators $\{g_1, \ldots, g_d\}$ of $G$ with the property that the orders $|g_1|, \ldots, |g_d|$ are pairwise coprime and that for all $x_1, \ldots, x_d \in G$…
A finite group $G$ is \emph{coprimely-invariably generated} if there exists a set of generators $\{g_1, ..., g_u\}$ of $G$ with the property that the orders $|g_1|, ..., |g_u|$ are pairwise coprime and that for all $x_1, ..., x_u \in G$ the…
Let $G$ be a finite simple group. In this paper we consider the existence of small subsets $A$ of $G$ with the property that, if $y \in G$ is chosen uniformly at random, then with high probability $y$ invariably generates $G$ together with…
A subset $S$ of a group $G$ invariably generates $G$ if $G$ is generated by $\{ s^g(s) | s\in S\} $ for any choice of $g(s)\in G, s\in S$. In case $G$ is topological one defines similarly the notion of topological invariable generation. A…
It is a classical problem to compute a minimal set of invariant polynomial generating the invariant ring of a finite group as an algebra. We present here an algorithm for the computation of minimal generating sets in the non-modular case.…
A minimal (by inclusion) generating set for the algebra of semi-invariants of a quiver of dimension (2,...,2) is established over an infinite field of arbitrary characteristic. The mentioned generating set consists of the determinants of…
A finite group $G$ is called *uniformly generated*, if whenever there is a (strictly ascending) chain of subgroups $1<\langle x_1\rangle<\langle x_1,x_2\rangle <\cdots<\langle x_1,x_2,\dots,x_d\rangle=G$, then $d$ is the minimal number of…
