The classification of abelian groups of central type is well known. However, the description of non-abelian groups of central type which are known to be solvable, is far from being understood. In this paper we classify all groups of central…

We present a characterisation of groups $G$ of order $p^7$, $p$ prime, in which not all elements of the commutator subgroup $\gamma_2(G)$ of $G$ are commutators in $G$. On the way we obtain several structural results on groups of order…

We have classified, upto isoclinism, certain groups with a given central factor. As an application, we classify, upto isoclinism, groups having at the most nine element centralizers. Among other results of independent interest, we have…

A finite group $G$ is called a Schur group if every Schur ring over $G$ is schurian, i.e. associated in a natural way with a subgroup of the symmetric group $Sym(G)$ that contains all right translations of $G$. The list of all possible…

In the study of group determinants, Frobenius introduced certain partial differential operators. This paper presents several results concerning the invariant rings derived from these partial differential operators.

We classify, up to isomorphism, the $\mathbb{Z}_pG$-modules of rank $1$ (i.e., the quotients of $\mathbb{Z}_pG$) for $G$ cyclic of order $p$, where $\mathbb{Z}_p$ is the ring of $p$-adic integers. This allows us in particular to determine…

We give an explicit recipe for determining iterated local cohomology groups with support in ideals of minors of a generic matrix in characteristic zero, expressing them as direct sums of indecomposable D-modules. For non-square matrices…

Given a positive integer $n$, the small divisors of $n$ are defined as the positive divisors that do not exceed $\sqrt{n}.$ Ianucci previously classified all $n$ for which the small divisors of $n$ form an arithmetic progression. In this…

We calculate the Picard group, over the integers, of the Hilbert scheme of smooth, irreducible, non-degenerate curves of degree $d$and genus $g \geq 4$ in ${\Bbb P}^r$, in the case when $d \geq 2g+1 $ and $r \leq d-g$. We express the…

Using recurrence matrices, defined and described with some details, we study a few determinants related to evaluations of binomial coefficients on Dirichlet characters modulo 2, 4 and 8.

In this article we give an order-dividing bijective function between cyclic and non cyclic groups of finite order. In particular, we prove that there exists a bijective function from D_{2n} to Z_{2n} for any natural integer n; and from Z_p…

There are 123,650 partial groups of order at most 9 and 178,937,003 partial groups of order 10. We explain a computer enumeration of these results and provide a complete list of indecomposable partial groups of order at most 5. We also…

It is shown that a finite group in which more than 3/4 of the elements are involutions must be an elementary abelian 2-group. A group in which exactly 3/4 of the elements are involutions is characterized as the direct product of the…

A (2,*)-group is a group that can be generated by two elements, one of which is an involution. We describe the method we have used to produce a census of all (2,*)-groups of order at most 6 000. Various well-known combinatorial structures…

Let $(G, 1_G)$ be a finite group and let $S=g_1\bdot \ldots\bdot g_{\ell}$ be a nonempty sequence over $G$. We say $S$ is a tiny product-one sequence if its terms can be ordered such that their product equals $1_G$ and…

The object of study in this paper is the finite groups whose integral group rings have only trivial central units. Prime-power groups and metacyclic groups with this property are characterized. Metacyclic groups are classified according to…

For every partition $\lambda$ of a positive integer $n$, let $S^{\lambda}$ be the corresponding Specht module of the symmetric group $\mathfrak{S}_n$, and let $\det(\lambda)\in \mathbb Z$ denote the Gram determinant of the canonical…

A finite group $G$ is called a Schur group if every $S$-ring over $G$ is schurian, i.e. associated in a natural way with a subgroup of $Sym(G)$ that contains all right translations. One of the crucial questions in the $S$-ring theory is the…

A group has the (D)CI ((Directed) Cayley Isomorphism) property, or more commonly is a (D)CI group, if any two Cayley (di)graphs on the group are isomorphic via a group automorphism. That is, $G$ is a (D)CI group if whenever…

In this paper, we compute the essential $l$-dimension of the finite groups of classical Lie type for odd primes $l$ not equal to the defining prime, specifically the general linear groups, the symplectic groups, the orthogonal groups, and…
