Using only undergraduate-level methods, we classify all groups of order $p^4$, where $p$ is an odd prime.
We compute the integral cohomology rings of a family of 3-groups. As a corollary, we exhibit, for each n greater than or equal to 5, a pair of groups of order 3^n whose integral cohomology rings are isomorphic.
We continue the analysis of the Modular Isomorphism Problem for $2$-generated $p$-groups with cyclic derived subgroup, $p>2$, started in [D. Garc\'ia-Lucas, \'A. del R\'io, and M. Stanojkovski. On group invariants determined by modular…
A compound determinant identity for minors of rectangular matrices is established. As an application, we derive Vandermonde type determinant formulae for classical group characters.
Given two positive integers n and c, we determine an upper bound, as a function of n and c, for the maximum order of a finite nilpotent transitive group of degree n and nilpotency class at most c.
We show that every discrete subgroup of $\mathrm{GL}(n,\mathbb{R})$ admits a finite dimensional classifying space with virtually cyclic stabilizers. Applying our methods to $\mathrm{SL}(3,\mathbb{Z})$, we obtain a four dimensional…
Based on recent successes concerning permutation resolutions of representations by Balmer and Gallauer we define a new invariant of finite groups: the p-permutation dimension. We define this analogously to the global dimension of a ring by…
We consider the ring of coinvariants for modular representations of cyclic groups of prime order. For all cases for which explicit generators for the ring of invariants are known, we give a reduced Gr\"obner basis for the Hilbert ideal and…
We show that there is a dense set $\ourset\subseteq \mathbb{N}$ of group orders and a constant $c$ such that for every $n\in \ourset$ we can decide in time $O(n^2(\log n)^c)$ whether two $n\times n$ multiplication tables describe isomorphic…
We evaluate determinants of "spiral" matrices, which are matrices in which entries are spiralling from the centre of the matrices towards the outside, with prescribed increments from one entry to the next depending on whether one moves…
We consider groups of the nilpotency class $3$ of order $p^4$ which are the additive groups of local nearrings. It was shown that, for $p>3$, there exist a local nearring on one of such 4 groups.
We give a definition of the Yagita invariant at a prime p of an arbitrary group G, and compute the invariant for each prime for the general linear groups over any integrally closed subring of the complex numbers. We also compute the…
When a cyclic group G of prime order acts on a 4-manifold X, we prove a formula which relates the Seiberg-Witten invariants of X to those of X/G.
The exact value of the separating Noether number of some finite abelian groups is determined, including the direct sums of cyclic groups of the same order.
It is shown that for any torsion unit of augmentation one in the integral group ring $\mathbb{Z} G$ of a finite solvable group $G$, there is an element of $G$ of the same order.
We consider the problem whether for a group G there exists a constant Lambda(G) > 1 such that for any (r,s)-matrix A over the integral group ring ZG the Fuglede-Kadison determinant of the G-equivariant bounded operator from L^2(G)^r to…
Suppose $C(G)$ denotes the set of all cyclic subgroups of a finite group $G$, and $\mathcal{O}_{2}(G)$ denotes the number of elements of order $2$ in $G$. In [Marius T., Finite groups with a certain number of cyclic subgroups. The American…
Period integrals arise from the comparison between Betti cohomologies and de Rham cohomologies. In this paper, we give a formula for the determinant of period integrals in terms of the canonical pairing between Picard group of rank 1…
We give a list of finite groups containing all finite groups $G$ such that the group of units $\Z G^*$ of the integral group ring $\Z G$ is subgroup separable. There are only two types of these groups $G$ for which we cannot decide wether…
For a positive integer $N$ divisible by $4$, let $\mathcal{O}^1_N(\mathbb{Q})$ be the ring of weakly holomorphic modular functions for the congruence subgroup $\Gamma^1(N)$ with rational Fourier coefficients. We present explicit generators…
