We prove that if a surface group embeds as a normal subgroup in a K\"ahler group and the conjugation action of the K\"ahler group on the surface group preserves the conjugacy class of a non-trivial element, then the K\"ahler group is…

Given a finite group $G$, we say that $G$ has weak normal covering number $\gamma_w(G)$ if $\gamma_w(G)$ is the smallest integer with $G$ admitting proper subgroups $H_1,\ldots,H_{\gamma_w(G)}$ such that each element of $G$ has a conjugate…

In this paper, we investigate certain submodules in C*-algebras associated to effective \'etale groupoids. First, we show that a submodule generated by normalizers is a closure of the set of compactly supported continuous functions on some…

Let $(W,S)$ be a Coxeter system, let $S=I \dot{\cup} J$ be a partition of $S$ such that no element of $I$ is conjugate to an element of $J$, let $\widetilde{J}$ be the set of $W_I$-conjugates of elements of $J$ and let $\widetilde{W}$ be…

Subregular W-algebras are an interesting and increasingly important class of quantum hamiltonian reductions of affine vertex algebras. Here, we show that the $\mathfrak{sl}_{n+1}$ subregular W-algebra can be realised in terms of the…

We prove that two reflection factorizations of a parabolic quasi-Coxeter element in a finite Coxeter group belong to the same Hurwitz orbit if and only if they generate the same subgroup and have the same multiset of conjugacy classes. As a…

We investigate the complexity of deciding, given a multiplication table representing a semigroup S, a subset X of S and an element t of S, whether t can be expressed as a product of elements of X. It is well-known that this problem is…

We describe a general construction of irreducible unitary representations of the group of currents with values in the semidirect product of a locally compact subgroup $P_0$ and a one-parameter group ${\mathbb R {}}^*_+=\{r:r>0\}$ of…

Non--Abelian duality in relation to supersymmetry is examined. When the action of the isometry group on the complex structures is non--trivial, extended supersymmetry is realized non--locally after duality, using path ordered Wilson lines.…

We show that (with one possible exception) there exist strongly dense free subgroups in any semisimple algebraic group over a large enough field. These are nonabelian free subgroups all of whose subgroups are either cyclic or Zariski dense.…

If $G$ is an omega-stable group with a normal definable subgroup $H$, then the Sylow-$2$-subgroups of $G/H$ are the images of the Sylow-$2$-subgroups of $G$.

Let $N$ be a simply connected, connected nilpotent Lie group which admits a uniform subgroup $\Gamma.$ Let $\alpha$ be an automorphism of $N$ defined by $\alpha\left( \exp X\right) =\exp AX.$ We assume that the linear action of $A$ is…

Despite the significance of the notion of parabolic closures in Coxeter groups of finite ranks, the parabolic closure is not guaranteed to exist as a parabolic subgroup in a general case. In this paper, first we give a concrete example to…

We determine all finite subgroups of simple algebraic groups that have irreducible centralizers - that is, centralizers whose connected component does not lie in a parabolic subgroup.

Let $p$ be an odd prime. Denote a Sylow $p$-subgroup of $GL_2(\mathbb{Z}/p^n)$ and $SL_2(\mathbb{Z}/p^n)$ by $S_p(n,GL)$ and $S_p(n,SL)$ respectively. The theory of stable elements tells us that the mod-$p$ cohomology of a finite group is…

We investigate the class of root systems $R$ obtained by extending an $A_1$-type irreducible root system by a free abelian group $G$. In this context there is a Weyl group $W$ and a group $U$ with the presentation by conjugation. Both…

For a finite real reflection group $W$ with Coxeter element $\gamma$ we give a uniform proof that the closed interval, $[I, \gamma]$ forms a lattice in the partial order on $W$ induced by reflection length. The proof involves the…

We follow the dual approach to Coxeter systems and show for Weyl groups a criterium which decides whether a set of reflections is generating the group depending on the root and the coroot lattice. Further we study special generating sets…

We investigate the group structure of center-preserving automorphisms of the finite Heisenberg group over $\mathbb Z_N$ with $U(1)$ extension, which arises in finite-dimensional quantum mechanics on a discrete phase space. Constructing an…

Let G be a group and H be a subgroup of G which is either finite or of finite index in G. In this note, we give some characterizations for normality of H in G. As a consequence we get a very short and elementary proof of the Main Theorem of…
