Let $G$ be a finite group and $P$ a Sylow $2$-subgroup of $G$. We obtain both asymptotic and explicit bounds for the number of odd-degree irreducible complex representations of $G$ in terms of the size of the abelianization of $P$. To do…

Inspired by recent questions of Nathanson, we show that for any infinite abelian group $G$ and any integers $m_1, \ldots, m_H$, there exist finite subsets $A,B \subseteq G$ such that $|hA|-|hB|=m_h$ for each $1 \leq h \leq H$. We also…

In this note, we consider irreducible semigroups of real, complex, and quaternionic matrices with real spectra. We prove Burnside type theorems in the settings of reals and quaternions. First, we prove that an irreducible semigroup of…

Let $m\geq 3$ be a positive integer. We prove that there are uncountably many non-commensurable metabelian uniform pro-$p$ groups of dimension $m$. Consequently, there are uncountably many non-commensurable finitely presented pro-$p$ groups…

Using quantum representations of mapping class groups we prove that profinite completions of Burnside-type surface group quotients are not virtually prosolvable, in general. Further, we construct infinitely many finite simple characteristic…

For a group G and an element a in G let |a|_k denote the cardinality of the set of commutators [a,x_1,...,x_k], where x_1,...,x_k range over G. The main result of the paper states that a group G is finite-by-nilpotent if and only if there…

We approach celebrated theorems of Burnside and Wedderburn via simultaneous triangularization. First, for a general field $F$, we prove that $M_n(F)$ is the only irrreducible subalgebra of triangularizable matrices in $M_n(F)$ provided such…

We obtain a partial classification of the finite groups $G$ for which the integral group ring $\mathbb{Z} G$ has projective cancellation, i.e. for which $P \oplus \mathbb{Z} G \cong Q \oplus \mathbb{Z} G$ implies $P \cong Q$ for projective…

A BMW group of degree $(m,n)$ is a group that acts simply transitively on vertices of the product of two regular trees of degrees $m$ and $n$. We show that the number of commensurability classes of BMW groups of degree $(m,n)$ is bounded…

After we have given a survey on the Burnside ring of a finite group, we discuss and analyze various extensions of this notion to infinite (discrete) groups. The first three are the finite-G-set-version, the inverse-limit-version and the…

Let $n$ be a positive integer and let $G$ be a group. We denote by $\nu(G)$ a certain extension of the non-abelian tensor square $G \otimes G$ by $G \times G$. Set $T_{\otimes}(G) = \{g \otimes h \mid g,h \in G\}$. We prove that if the size…

$(1)$ Let $M\subset N$ be a commutative cancellative torsion-free and subintegral extension of monoids. Then we prove that in the case of ring extension $A[M]\subset A[N]$, the two notions, subintegral and weakly subintegral coincide…

In this note, I propose the following conjecture: a finite group G is nilpotent if and only if its largest quotient B-group \beta(G) is nilpotent. I give a proof of this conjecture under the additional assumption that G be solvable. I also…

An abelian group $A$ is said to be cancellable if whenever $A \oplus G$ is isomorphic to $A \oplus H$, $G$ is isomorphic to $H$. We show that the index set of cancellable rank 1 torsion-free abelian groups is $\Pi^0_4$ $m$-complete, showing…

The theory of small cancellation groups is well known. In this paper we introduce the notion of Group-like Small Cancellation Ring. This is the main result of the paper. We define this ring axiomatically, by generators and defining…

For any n>3, we give a family of finite dimensional irreducible representations of the braid group B_n. Moreover, we give a subfamily parametrized by 0<m<n of dimension the combinatoric number (n,m). The representation obtained in the case…

A group is called $(m,n)$-bicyclic if it can be expressed as a product of two cyclic subgroups of orders $m$ and $n$, respectively. The classification and characterization of finite bicyclic groups have long been important problems in group…

Let $G$ be a group, $m\geq2$ and $n\geq1$. We say that $G$ is an $\mathcal{T}(m,n)$-group if for every $m$ subsets $X_1, X_2, \dots, X_m$ of $G$ of cardinality $n$, there exists $i\neq j$ and $x_i \in X_i, x_j \in X_j$ such that…

By a result of Gersten and Short finite presentations satisfying the usual non-metric small cancellation conditions present biautomatic groups. We show that in the case in which all pieces have length one, a generalization of the C(3)-T(6)…

We show that for any set $A \subset \mathbb{N}$ with positive upper density and any $\ell,m \in \mathbb{N}$, there exist an infinite set $B\subset \mathbb{N}$ and some $t\in \mathbb{N}$ so that $\{mb_1 + \ell b_2 \colon b_1,b_2\in B\…
