In this paper we obtain the Wedderburn-Artin decomposition of a semisimple group algebra associated to a direct product of finite groups. We also provide formulae for the number of all possible group codes, and their dimensions, that can be…
Bridging the work of Cameron, Harary, and others, we examine the base size set B(G) and determining set D(G) of several families of groups. The base size set is the set of base sizes of all faithful actions of the group G on finite sets.…
The aim of the present paper is to generalize the notion of the group determinants for finite groups. For a finite group $G$ of order $kn$ and its subgroup $H$ of order $n$, one may define an $n$ by $kn$ matrix $X=(x_{hg^{-1}})_{h\in H,g\in…
We define two different simplicial complexes, the common divisor simplicial complex and the prime divisor simplicial complex, from a set of integers, and explore their similarities. We will define a map between the two simplicial complexes,…
A compound determinant identity for minors of rectangular matrices is established. As an application, we derive Vandermonde type determinant formulae for classical group characters.
This paper concerns finite groups of class (at most) two and of odd prime exponent $p$. Such a group is called special if the center lies within its derived group. Every group of class 2 and exponent $p$ can be uniquely expressed as the…
Based on the earlier work of Li (European J. Combin. 1997) and Dobson (Discrete Math. 2008), in this paper we complete the classification of cyclic $m$-DCI-groups and $m$-CI-groups. For a positive integer $m$ such that $m \ge 3$, we show…
We study determinant functors which are defined on a triangulated category and take values in a Picard category. The two main results are the existence of a universal determinant functor for every small triangulated category, and a…
The goal of this paper is to develop a systematic method of locating the Mueller matrices within the class of the matrices of the real group SL(4, R). The main idea is to construct the general transformation of the group SL(4, R) (whose…
The results of computer computations determining the automorphism groups of the groups of order 32$p$ for $p \geq 3$ are given in several tables. Presentations for the automorphism groups of the groups of order 32, which in many cases…
We give a basis of bideterminants for the coordinate ring K[O(n)] of the orthogonal group O(n,K), where K is an infinite field of characteristic not 2. The bideterminants are indexed by pairs of Young tableaux which are O(n)-standard in the…
This paper shows that groups of order $64$ are uniquely determined up to isomorphism by their Tables of Marks. This then resolves a previously posed question about whether all groups of order less than $96$ are determined by their Tables of…
We explicitly determine all CI-groups with respect to ternary relational structures that have the form $C \times D$, where $C$ is cyclic and $D$ is either a dicyclic group whose order is not divisible by $3$ or a dihedral group. Such groups…
We study the group of interval exchange transformations and obtain several characterizations of its commutator group. In particular, it turns out that the commutator group is generated by elements of order 2.
We give a relatively short proof of one of the central cases of the main theorem from the paper "The distribution of integers with a divisor in a given interval", math.NT/0401223. Namely, we determine the order of magnitude of the number of…
We study the algebras generated by restriction and induction operations on complex modules over dihedral groups. In the case where the orders of all dihedral groups involved are not divisible by four, we describe the relations, a basis, the…
Given a subset $S$ of the non-identity elements of the dihedral group of order $2m$, is it possible to order the elements of $S$ so that the partial products are distinct? This is equivalent to the sequenceability of the group when $|S| =…
We give a simple proof of a major index determinant formula in the symmetric group discovered by Krattenthaler and first proved by Thibon using noncommutative symmetric functions. We do so by proving a factorization of an element in the…
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…
