We prove an induction theorem for the higher algebraic K-groups of group algebras $kG$ of finite groups $G$ over characteristic $p$ finite fields $k$. For a certain class of finite groups, which we call $p$-isolated, this reduces…

Let $p$ be a prime and $\mathbb{F}_p$ be a finite field of $p$ elements. Let $\mathbb{F}_pG$ denote the group algebra of the finite $p$-group $G$ over the field $\mathbb{F}_p$ and $V(\mathbb{F}_pG)$ denote the group of normalized units in…

Let $K$ be the function field of a smooth and proper curve $S$ over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $p>0$. Let $A$ be an ordinary abelian variety over $K$. Suppose that the N\'eron model $\CA$ of $A$ over $S$ has a…

We initiate the study of profinite groups of non-negative deficiency. The principal focus of the paper is to show that the existence of a finitely generated normal subgroup of infinite index in a profinite group $G$ of non-negative…

Let K be a field of positive characteristic p, let R be either a group algebra K[G] or a restricted enveloping algebra u(L), and let I be the augmentation ideal of R. We first characterize those R for which I satisfies a polynomial identity…

In [J. Algebra 452 (2016), 372-389], we characterise when the sequence of free subgroup numbers of a finitely generated virtually free group $\Gamma$ is ultimately periodic modulo a given prime power. Here, we show that, in the remaining…

Let F be a finite field. We prove that the cohomology algebra with coefficients in F of a right-angled Artin group is a strongly Koszul algebra for every finite graph ${\Gamma}$. Moreover, the same algebra is a universally Koszul algebra…

For any odd prime $p$, the Galois group of the maximal unramified pro-$p$-extension of an imaginary quadratic field is a Schur $\sigma$-group. But Schur $\sigma$-groups can also be constructed and studied abstractly. We prove that if $p>3$,…

Let $G$ be a reductive group over a non-archimedean local field $F$ of residue characteristic $p$. We prove that the Hecke algebras of $G(F)$ with coefficients in a ${\mathbb Z}_{\ell}$-algebra $R$ for $\ell$ not equal to $p$ are finitely…

We define and study a pro-$p$ version of Sidki's weak commutativity construction. This is the pro-$p$ group $\mathfrak{X}_p(G)$ generated by two copies $G$ and $G^{\psi}$ of a pro-$p$ group, subject to the defining relators $[g,g^{\psi}]$…

We discuss the structure of finite groups for which the projective indecomposable modules have special given dimensions. In particular, we prove the converse of Fong's dimension formula for $p$-solvable groups. Furthermore, we characterize…

We show that every finitely-generated non-amenable linear group over a field of characteristic zero admits an ergodic action which is rigid in the sense of Popa. If this group has trivial solvable radical, we prove that these actions can be…

Let $W$ be a Coxeter group whose proper parabolic subgroups are finite. According to Theorem~1.12 of [1], if the module of a finite $W$-digraph $\Gamma$ is isomorphic to the module of a $W$-graph over $Q$, then $\Gamma$ is acyclic. We…

We address the following question. For which finitely generated pro-$p$ groups the comparison map $\phi^2:H_{cont}^{2}(P,\F_p) \to H_{disc}{2}(P,\F_p)$ is an isomorphism? We prove that if $P$ is not finitely presented then $\phi^2$ is not…

In this paper, we show that if G is a finite p-group (p prime) acting by automorphisms on a $\delta$-hyperbolic Poincare Duality group, then the fixed subgroup is a Poincare Duality group over Z/p. We also provide examples to show that the…

Let $\Gamma$ be a discrete group of finite virtual cohomological dimension with certain finiteness conditions of the type satisfied by arithmetic groups. We define a representation ring for $\Gamma$, determined on its elements of finite…

For any prime $p$ and group $G$, denote the pro-$p$ completion of $G$ by $\hat{G}^p$. Let $\mathcal{C}$ be the class of all groups $G$ such that, for each natural number $n$ and prime number $p$, $H^n(\hat{G^p},\mathbb Z/p)\cong H^n(G,…

A $p$-subgroup $H$ of a finite group $G$ is said to satisfy partial $S$-$\Pi$-property in $G$ if $G$ has a chief series $\Gamma_{G}: 1=G_{0}<G_{1}<\cdots<G_{n}=G$ such that for every $G$-chief factor $G_{i}/G_{i-1}$ $(1\leqslant i\leqslant…
