For $\sigma \in S_n$, let $D(\sigma) = \{i : \sigma_{i} > \sigma_{i+1}\}$ denote the descent set of $\sigma$. The length of the permutation is the number of inversions, denoted by $inv(\sigma) = \big | \{(i,j) : i<j, \sigma_i > \sigma_j\}…
Let $\Omega$ be a finite set and $T(\Omega)$ be the full transformation monoid on $\Omega$. The rank of a transformation $t\in T(\Omega)$ is the natural number $|\Omega t|$. Given $A\subseteq T(\Omega)$, denote by $\langle A\rangle$ the…
In this article, we develop a dynamical theory for what shall be called a skew product on the Berkovich projective line, $\phi_*: \mathbb{P}^1_{\text{an}}(K) \to \mathbb{P}^1_{\text{an}}(K)$ over a non-Archimedean field $K$. These functions…
The Hawkes graph $\Gamma_H(G)$ of $G$ is the directed graph whose vertex set coincides with $\pi(G)$ and it has the edge $(p, q)$ whenever $q\in\pi(G/O_{p',p}(G))$. The Sylow graph $\Gamma_s(G)$ of $G$ is the directed graph with vertex set…
All groups under consideration are finite. Let $\sigma =\{\sigma_i \mid i\in I \}$ be some partition of the set of $\mathbb{P}$, $G$ be a group, and $\mathfrak F$ be a class of groups. Then $\sigma (G)=\{\sigma_i\mid \sigma_i\cap \pi (G)\ne…
Given a formal symplectic groupoid $G$ over a Poisson manifold $(M, \pi_0)$, we define a new object, an infinitesimal deformation of $G$, which can be thought of as a formal symplectic groupoid over the manifold $M$ equipped with an…
The full automorphism group of a certain elementary abelian $p$-cover of the Hermitian curve in characteristic $p>0$ is determined. It is remarkable that the order of Sylow $p$-groups of the automorphism group is close to Nakajima's bound…
We discuss a general construction of a deformation of a smash product algebra coming from an action of a particular Hopf algebra. This Hopf algebra is generated by skew-primitive and group-like elements, and depends on a complex parameter.…
Let G be a group of permutations of a denumerable set E. The profile of G is the function phi which counts, for each n, the number phi(n) of orbits of G acting on the n-subsets of E. Counting functions arising this way, and their associated…
Let $R$ be a commutative ring, $G$ a group and $RG$ its group ring. Let $\phi_{\sigma} : RG\to RG$ denote the involution defined by $\phi_{\sigma} (\sum r_{g}g) = \sum r_{g} \sigma (g) g^{-1}$, where $\sigma:G\to \{\pm 1\}$ is a group…
The genus spectrum of a finite group $G$ is the set of all $g\geq 2$ such that $G$ acts faithfully and orientation-preserving on a closed compact orientable surface of genus $g$. This article is an overview of some results relating the…
Let $\sigma\colon G \to S_n$ be a surjective homomorphism and let $H$ be a group. We introduce the \emph{permutational wreath pullback} \[ H \wr_\sigma G = H^n \rtimes_\sigma G, \] where the action of $G$ on $H^n$ is induced by permutation…
For $G$ a finite group, $k$ a field of prime characteristic $p$, and $S$ a Sylow $p$-subgroup of $G$, the Sylow permutation module $\mathrm{Ind}^G_S(k)$ plays a role in diverse facets of representation theory and group theory, ranging from…
Let $G$ be a connected reductive $p$-adic group and let $\theta$ be an automorphism of $G$ of order at most two. Suppose $\pi$ is an irreducible smooth representation of $G$ that is taken to its dual by $\theta$. The space $V$ of $\pi$ then…
Given a finite group G acting as automorphisms on a ring A, the skew group ring A*G is an important tool for studying the structure of G-stable ideals of A. The ring A*G is G-graded, i.e.G coacts on A*G. The Cohen-Montgomery duality says…
An automorphism of a graph $G=(V,E)$ is a bijective map $\phi$ from $V$ to itself such that $\phi(v_i)\phi(v_j)\in E$ $\Leftrightarrow$ $v_i v_j\in E$ for any two vertices $v_i$ and $v_j$. Denote by $\mathfrak{G}$ the group consisting of…
We investigate the algebraic properties of the bounded skew power series ring $Q^+[[x;\sigma,\delta]]$ over a (complete, simple) \emph{standard} filtered artinian algebra $Q$ of positive characteristic. Here we are assuming that…
If $G$ is a group of permutations of a set $\Omega$, then the suborbits of $G$ are the orbits of point-stabilisers $G_\alpha$ acting on $\Omega$. The cardinalities of these suborbits are the subdegrees of $G$. Every infinite primitive…
Let $\sigma =\{\sigma_{i} | i\in I\}$ be a partition of the set of all primes $\Bbb{P}$ and $G$ a finite group. A set ${\cal H}$ of subgroups of $G$ is said to be a \emph{complete Hall $\sigma $-set} of $G$ if every member $\ne 1$ of ${\cal…
We introduce partially defined dynamical systems defined on a topological space. To each such system we associate a functor $s$ from a category $G$ to $\Top^{\op}$ and show that it defines what we call a skew category algebra $A…
