We study the Fibered Isomorphism conjecture of Farrell and Jones for groups acting on trees. We show that under certain conditions the conjecture is true for groups acting on trees when the stabilizers satisfy the conjecture. These…

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…

For an element $g$ of a group $G$, an Engel sink is a subset $\mathcal{E}(g)$ such that for every $ x\in G $ all sufficiently long commutators $ [x,g,g,\ldots,g] $ belong to $\mathcal{E}(g)$. We conjecture that if $G$ is a profinite group…

An orthomorphism of a finite group $G$ is a bijection $\phi\colon G\to G$ such that $g\mapsto g^{-1}\phi(g)$ is also a bijection. In 1981, Friedlander, Gordon, and Tannenbaum conjectured that when $G$ is abelian, for any $k\geq 2$ dividing…

We propose a generalization of Ledet conjecture, which predicts the essential dimension of cyclic $p$-groups in characteristic $p$, for finite commutative unipotent group schemes. And we show some evidence and some consequences of this new…

Motivated by recent activity in low-dimensional topology, we provide a new criterion for left-orderability of a group under the assumption that the group is circularly-orderable: A group $G$ is left-orderable if and only if $G \times…

A positive integer $n$ is defined to be cyclic if and only if every group of size $n$ is cyclic. Equivalently, $n$ is cyclic if and only if $n$ is relatively prime to the number of positive integers less than $n$ that are relatively prime…

We study Brou\'e's abelian defect group conjecture for groups of Lie type using the recent theory of perverse equivalences and Deligne--Lusztig varieties. Our approach is to analyze the perverse equivalence induced by certain…

In this paper we deal with a finite abelian group $G$ and the abstract Fourier transform ${\mathcal F}:{\mathbb C}^G\to {\mathbb C}^\hat{G}$. Then, we consider $\tilde{j}\circ {\mathcal F}:{\mathbb C}^G\to {\mathbb C}^\hat{G}$ where $\tilde…

Let R be a regular local ring. Let G be a reductive R-group scheme. A conjecture of Grothendieck and Serre predicts that a principal G-bundle over R is trivial if it is trivial over the quotient field of R. The conjecture is known when R…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $\psi(G) = \sum_{g \in G} o(g)$, where $o(g)$ denotes the order of $g \in G$. First, we prove that if $G$ is a group of order $n$ and $\psi(G) >31\psi(C_n)/77$, where $C_n$ is the cyclic group of order $n$,…

A conjecture due to Zassenhaus asserts that if $\ G$ is a finite group then any torsion unit in $\mathbb{Z}G$ is conjugate in $\mathbb{Q}G$ to an element of $\ G$. We present a weaker form of this conjecture for some infinite groups.

The present survey aims at being a list of Conjectures and Problems in an area of model-theoretic algebra wide open for research, not a list of known results. To keep the text compact, it focuses on structures of finite Morley rank,…

We investigate whether the group algebra of a finite group over a localisation of the integers is semiperfect. The main result is a necessary and sufficient arithmetic criterion in the ordinary case. In the modular case, we propose a…

It was conjectured by H. Zassenhaus that a torsion unit of an integral group ring of a finite group is conjugate to a group element within the rational group algebra. The object of this note is the computational aspect of a method developed…

A finite group $G$ is called a Schur group, if any Schur ring over $G$ is the transitivity module of a permutation group on the set $G$ containing the regular subgroup of all right translations. It was proved by R. P\"oschel (1974) that…

It has been conjectured that for any fixed $r\geq 2$ and sufficiently large $n$, there is a monochromatic Hamiltonian Berge-cycle in every $(r-1)$-coloring of the edges of $K_{n}^{r}$, the complete $r$-uniform hypergraph on $n$ vertices. In…

We determine the Balmer spectrum of dualisable objects in the stable module category for $\mathrm{H}_1\mathfrak{F}$ groups of type $\mathrm{FP}_{\infty}$ and show that the telescope conjecture holds for these categories. We also determine…

We prove some new cases of the Grothendieck-Serre conjecture for classical groups. This is based on a new construction of the Gersten-Witt complex for Witt groups of Azumaya algebras with involution on regular semilocal rings, with explicit…

We compute the Picard group of the universal abelian variety over the moduli stack $\mathscr A_{g,n}$ of principally polarized abelian varieties over $\mathbb{C}$ with a symplectic principal level $n$-structure. We then prove that over…
