For a finite abelian $p$-group $A$ and a subgroup $\Gamma\le\text{Aut}(A)$, we say that the pair $(\Gamma,A)$ is fusion realizable if there is a saturated fusion system $\mathcal{F}$ over a finite $p$-group $S\ge A$ such that $C_S(A)=A$,…
For a prime $p$, we describe a protocol for handling a specific type of fusion system on a $p$-group by computer. These fusion systems contain all saturated fusion systems. This framework allows us to computationally determine whether or…
Let $\mathcal F$ be a saturated fusion system on a finite $p$-group $S$, and let $P$ be a strongly $\mathcal F$-closed subgroup of $S$. We define the concept ``$\mathcal F$-essential subgroups with respect to $P$" which are some proper…
We provide a characterization of the positive monoids (i.e., additive submonoids of the nonnegative real numbers) that satisfy the finite factorization property. As a result, we establish that positive monoids with well-ordered generating…
We determine for which known finite simple groups $G$ and which primes $p$ the $p$-fusion system of $G$ is simple. This means first collecting together the results that were already known (and correcting two errors made in an earlier study…
For a prime number $p$, a finite $p$-group of order $p^n$ has maximal class if it has nilpotency class $n-1$. Here we examine saturated fusion systems on maximal class $p$-groups and, in particular, we describe all the reduFor a prime…
Let $\mathcal{F}=\{F_{\alpha}: \alpha\in \mathcal{A}\}$ be a family of infinite graphs, together with $\Lambda$. The Factorization Problem $FP(\mathcal{F}, \Lambda)$ asks whether $\mathcal{F}$ can be realized as a factorization of…
This article characterizes the rank-one factorization of auto-correlation matrix polynomials. We establish a sufficient and necessary uniqueness condition for uniqueness of the factorization based on the greatest common divisor (GCD) of…
The N distinct prime numbers that make up a composite number M allow $2^{N-1}$ bi partioning into two relatively prime factors. Each such pair defines a pair of conjugate representations. These pairs of conjugate representations, each of…
A subgroup $A$ of a finite group $G$ is said to be a $CAP$-subgroup of $G$, if for any chief factor $H/K$ of $G$, either $A H= AK$ or $A\cap H = A \cap K$. Let $p$ be a prime, $S$ be a $p$-group and $\mathcal{F}$ be a saturated fusion…
We address the question whether the condition on a fusion category being solvable or not is determined by its fusion rules. We prove that the answer is affirmative for some families of non-solvable examples arising from representations of…
We introduce the concept of isolated factorizations of an element of a commutative monoid and study its properties. We give several bounds for the number of isolated factorizations of simplicial affine semigroups and numerical semigroups.…
Let P be a finite metacyclic 2-group and F a fusion system on P. We prove that F is nilpotent unless P has maximal class or P is homocyclic, i.e. P is a direct product of two isomorphic cyclic groups. As a consequence we obtain the…
We survey results on factorizations of non zero-divisors into atoms (irreducible elements) in noncommutative rings. The point of view in this survey is motivated by the commutative theory of non-unique factorizations. Topics covered include…
We consider polynomials of bi-degree $(n,1)$ over the skew field of quaternions where the indeterminates commute with each other and with all coefficients. Polynomials of this type do not generally admit factorizations. We recall a…
Let $p$ be a prime and $\mathcal{F}$ be a saturated fusion system over a finite $p$-group $P$. The fusion system $\mathcal{F}$ is said to be nilpotent if $\mathcal{F}=\mathcal{F}_{P}(P)$. We provide new criteria for a saturated fusion…
We extend a few fundamental aspects of the classical theory of non-unique factorization, as presented in Geroldinger and Halter-Koch's 2006 monograph on the subject, to a non-commutative and non-cancellative setting, in the same spirit of…
Finite dynamical systems (FDSs) are commonly used to model systems with a finite number of states that evolve deterministically and at discrete time steps. Considered up to isomorphism, those correspond to functional graphs. As such, FDSs…
Let $G$ be a group. The subsets $A_1,\ldots,A_k$ of $G$ form a complete factorization of group $G$ if if they are pairwise disjoint and each element $g\in G$ is uniquely represented as $g=a_1\ldots a_k$, with $a_i\in A_i$. We prove the…
In this work, we investigate the existence of a factorization for a unital completely positive map, between non-commutative probability space which do not change the expectation values of the events. These maps are called in literature…
