This note investigate some finiteness properties of the category U of unstable modules. One shows finiteness properties for the injective resolution of finitely generated unstable modules. One also shows a stabilization result under…

We note a parallel between some ideas of stable model theory and certain topics in finite combinatorics related to the sum-product phenomenon. For a simple linear group G, we show that a finite subset X with |X X \^{-1} X |/ |X| bounded is…

Let G be a finite group. The stable module category of G has been applied extensively in group representation theory. In particular, it has been used to great effect that it is a triangulated category which is compactly generated. Let H be…

We study the problem of realizing families of subgroups as the set of stabilizers of configurations from a subshift of finite type (SFT). This problem generalizes both the existence of strongly and weakly aperiodic SFTs. We show that a…

The purpose of this note is to provide a reference for the fact that the strong Frobenius number, in the sense of Eaton and Livesey, of a block of a finite group with a cyclic defect group is equal to one. This answers a question of Farrell…

Let $A$ be a non-metacyclic finite group. Suppose that $A$ acts coprimely on a finite group $G$ in such a manner that $C_G(a)$ is nilpotent for any $a\in A^{\#}$. In the present paper we investigate some conditions on $A$ which imply that…

Let $G$ be a dp-minimal group; we prove some consequences of several different hypotheses on $G$. First, if $G$ is torsion-free, then it is abelian. Second, if $G$ admits a distal f-generic type, then it is virtually nilpotent; we prove…

The aim of this brief note is to offer another proof of a theorem of Hrushovski that approximate subgroups of GL_n(C) are almost nilpotent. This approach generalizes to uniformly non amenable groups.

A finite transitive permutation group is said to be 3/2-transitive if all the nontrivial orbits of a point stabilizer have the same size greater than 1. Examples include the 2-transitive groups, Frobenius groups and several other less…

The $U^2$ norm gives a useful measure of quasirandomness for real- or complex-valued functions defined on finite (or, more generally, locally compact) groups. A simple Fourier-analytic argument yields an inverse theorem, which shows that a…

The purpose of this paper is to give a sufficient condition for (strong) stability of non-proper smooth functions (with respect to the Whitney $C^\infty$-topology). We show that a Morse function is stable if it is end-trivial at any point…

Suppose that a metacyclic Frobenius group $FH$, with kernel $F$ and complement $H$, acts by automorphisms on a finite group $G$, in such a way that $C_G(F)$ is trivial and $C_G(H)$ is nilpotent. It is known that $G$ is nilpotent and its…

Let $p$ be a prime number and suppose that every maximal subgroup of a finite group is either $p$-nilpotent or has prime index. Such group need not be $p$-solvable, and we study its structure by proving that only one nonabelian simple group…

The word stable is used to describe a situation when mathematical objects that almost satisfy an equation are close to objects satisfying it exactly. We study operator-algebraic forms of stability for unitary representations of groups and…

A measure-preserving action of a discrete countable group on a standard probability space is called stable if the associated equivalence relation is isomorphic to its direct product with the ergodic hyperfinite equivalence relation of type…

Let us say that a discrete countable group is stable if it has an ergodic, free, probability-measure-preserving and stable action. Let G be a discrete countable group with a central subgroup C. We present a sufficient condition and a…

It is known that if the derangements subgroup of a transitive non-regular permutation group is a proper subgroup, then it is a Frobenius--Wielandt kernel, and, conversely, minimal Frobenius--Wielandt kernels are proper derangements…

For every non-hyper-FC-central countable amenable group and every $k\geq 2$, we provide a sequence of symmetric, fully supported probability measures such that their convex combination is non-Liouville (that is it admits a non-constant…

An equilibrium statistical system is known to be stable if the fluctuations of global observables are normal, when their dispersions are proportional to the number of particles, or to the system volume. A general theorem is rigorously…

We introduce continuous Frobenius categories. These are topological categories which are constructed using representations of the circle over a discrete valuation ring. We show that they are Krull-Schmidt with one indecomposable object for…
