In this paper, we prove an analogue of the Erd\H{o}s-Ko-Rado theorem intersecting families of subspaces in projective Hjelmslev geometries over finite chain rings of nilpotency index 2. We give an example of maximal families that are not…
Let $G$ be a cyclic $p$-group for some prime number $p>0$ and let $R$ be a complete discrete valuation ring in mixed characteristic. In this paper, we present a generalization of two results that characterize $RG$-permutation modules,…
We prove homology stability for elementary and special linear groups over rings with many units improving known stability ranges. Our result implies stability for unstable Quillen K-groups and proves a conjecture of Bass. For commutative…
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…
A theorem of Elekes and Szab\'{o} recognizes algebraic groups among certain complex algebraic varieties with maximal size intersections with finite grids. We establish a generalization to relations of any arity and dimension, definable in:…
By the investigation of $k$-orbits symmetry properties it is obtained a simple proof of the B. Fein, W. M. Kantor and M. Schacher Theorem: any transitive permutation group contains a non-trivial fixed-point-free prime-power element. Key…
The Erd\H{o}s-Kac theorem is a celebrated result in number theory which says that the number of distinct prime factors of a uniformly chosen random integer satisfies a central limit theorem. In this paper, we establish the large deviations…
We use an algebraic method to prove a degree version of the celebrated Erd\H os-Ko-Rado theorem: given $n>2k$, every intersecting $k$-uniform hypergraph $H$ on $n$ vertices contains a vertex that lies on at most $\binom{n-2}{k-2}$ edges.…
A set system F is intersecting if any pair of sets in F have a nonempty intersection. A fundamental theorem of Erd\H{o}s, Ko and Rado states that if F is an intersecting family of r-subsets of [n]={1,...,n}, and n>= 2r, then the cardinality…
This article began as a study of the structure of infinite permutation groups G in which point stabilisers are finite and all infinite normal subgroups are transitive. That led to two variations. One is the generalisation in which point…
For positive integers $n>k>t$ let $\binom{[n]}{k}$ denote the collection of all $k$-subsets of the standard $n$-element set $[n]=\{1,\ldots,n\}$. Subsets of $\binom{[n]}{k}$ are called $k$-graphs. A $k$-graph $\mathcal{F}$ is called…
We shall be interested in the following Erdos-Ko-Rado-type question. Fix some subset B of [n]. How large a family A of subsets of [n] can we find such that the intersection of any two sets in A contains a cyclic translate (modulo n) of B?…
A family $\F$ of sets is said to be intersecting if any two sets in $\F$ have nonempty intersection. The celebrated Erd{\H o}s-Ko-Rado theorem determines the size and structure of the largest intersecting family of $k$-sets on an $n$-set…
A $k$-partition of an $n$-set $X$ is a collection of $k$ pairwise disjoint non-empty subsets whose union is $X$. A family of $k$-partitions of $X$ is called $t$-intersecting if any two of its members share at least $t$ blocks. A…
In this note, we give short proofs of three theorems about intersection problems. The first one is a determination of the maximum size of a nontrivial $k$-uniform, $d$-wise intersecting family for $n\ge \left(1+\frac{d}{2}\right)(k-d+2)$,…
Persistence modules stratify their underlying parameter space, a quality that make persistence modules amenable to study via invariants of stratified spaces. In this article, we extend a result previously known only for one-parameter…
Let k be an algebraically closed field of arbitrary characteristic,let K/k be a finitely generated field extension and let X be a separated scheme of finite type over K. For each prime ell, the absolute Galois group of K acts on the…
Given a transitive permutation group, a fundamental object for studying its higher transitivity properties is the permutation action of its isotropy subgroup. We reverse this relationship and introduce a universal construction of infinite…
We show that if a groupoid graded ring has a certain nonzero ideal property, then the commutant of the center of the principal component of the ring has the ideal intersection property, that is it intersects nontrivially every nonzero ideal…
Two elements $g$ and $h$ of a permutation group $G$ acting on a set $V$ are said to be intersecting if $g(v) = h(v)$ for some $v \in V$. More generally, a subset ${\cal F}$ of $G$ is an intersecting set if every pair of elements of ${\cal…
