We present a framework for constructing congruence closure modulo permutation equations, which extends the abstract congruence closure framework for handling permutation function symbols. Our framework also handles certain interpreted…

In this note we present a simplified and slightly generalized version of a lemma the authors published in 1987. The lemma as stated here asserts that if the order of a permutation of $n$ elements is greater than $n^{\alpha}$ then some…

We introduce the notion of a favourable module for a complex unipotent algebraic group, whose properties are governed by the combinatorics of an associated polytope. We describe two filtrations of the module, one given by the total degree…

This note shows how to use the framework of Euler characteristic formulae to study Selmer groups of abelian varieties in certain dihedral or anticyclotomic extensions of CM fields via Iwasawa main conjectures, and in particular how to…

Let $G$ be a multiplicative subgroup of $\mathbb{Q}_p$. In this paper, we describe the theory of the pair $(\mathbb{Q}_p, G)$ under the condition that $G$ satisfies Mann property and is small as subset of a first-order structure. First, we…

Let $G$ be a transitive permutation group on $\Omega$. The $G$-invariant partitions form a sublattice of the lattice of all partitions of $\Omega$, having the further property that all its elements are uniform (that is, have all parts of…

It is proven that if a finite group $G$ has a normal subgroup $H$ with $p'$-index (where $p$ is a prime) and $G/H$ is solvable, then for a $p$-subgroup $P$ of $H$, if the Scott $kH$-module with vertex $P$ is Brauer indecomposable, then so…

Let $G$ be a connected and simply connected two-step nilpotent Lie group and $\Gamma$ a lattice subgroup of $G$. In this note, we give a new multiplicity formula, according to the sense of Moore, of irreducible unitary representations…

In 1878, Jordan proved that if a finite group $G$ has a faithful representation of dimension $n$ over $\mathbb{C}$, then $G$ has a normal abelian subgroup with index bounded above by a function of $n$. The same result fails if one replaces…

We investigate a question of Burns and Sano concerning the structure of the module of Euler systems for a general $p$-adic representation. Assuming the weak Leopoldt conjecture, and the vanishing of $\mu$-invariants of natural Iwasawa…

Let $G$ be a connected reductive algebraic group over an algebraically closed field $k$, and assume that the characteristic of $k$ is zero or a pretty good prime for $G$. Let $P$ be a parabolic subgroup of $G$ and let $\mathfrak p$ be the…

We describe the structure, including composition factors and submodule lattices, of cross-characteristic permutation modules for the natural actions of the orthogonal groups $O_{m}^{\pm}(3)$ with $m\geq6$ on nonsingular points of their…

Let $p$ be a fixed odd prime. Let $E$ be an elliptic curve defined over a number field $F$ with good supersingular reduction at all primes above $p$. We study both the classical and plus/minus Selmer groups over the cyclotomic…

In [14] Hemmer conjectures that the module of fixed points for the symmetric group $\Sigma_m$ of a Specht module for $\Sigma_n$ (with $n>m$), over a field of positive characteristic $p$, has a Specht series, when viewed as a…

Let $p$ be a prime number and $\Bbbk=\bar{\mathbb{F}}_p$, the algebraic closure of the finite field $\mathbb{F}_p$ of $p$ elements. Let ${\bf G}$ be a connected reductive group defined over $\mathbb{F}_p$ and ${\bf B}$ be a Borel subgroup…

Brauer and Fowler noted restrictions on the structure of a finite group G in terms of the order of the centralizer of an involution t in G. We consider variants of these themes. We first note that for an arbitrary finite group G of even…

We determine the structure of the fibered biset functor sending a finite group $G$ to the complex vector space of complex valued class functions of $G$. Previously, it is studied as a biset functor by Bouc and as a $\mathbb…

Let $G$ be a Lie group, with an invariant non-degenerate symmetric bilinear form on its Lie algebra, let $\pi$ be the fundamental group of an orientable (real) surface $M$ with a finite number of punctures, and let $\bold C$ be a family of…

Extending earlier work of Guralnick and of Cai and Zhang, we classify the almost simple groups which have transitive permutation representations of prime power degree $p^k$, and those which have $p$-complements (stabilisers of order coprime…

In this paper, we investigate the structure of finite group G by assuming that the intersections between p-sylowizers of some p-subgroups of G and $O^p(G)$ are S-permutable in G. We obtain some criterions for p-nilpotency of a finite group.
