We describe algorithms for computing maximal determinants of binary circulant matrices of small orders. Here "binary matrix" means a matrix whose elements are drawn from $\{0,1\}$ or $\{-1,1\}$. We describe efficient parallel algorithms for…
An $integral$ of a group $G$ is a group $H$ whose commutator subgroup is isomorphic to $G$. This paper continues the investigation on integrals of groups started in the work arXiv:1803.10179. We study: (1) A sufficient condition for a bound…
We investigate the class of quasitrivial semigroups and provide various characterizations of the subclass of quasitrivial and commutative semigroups as well as the subclass of quasitrivial and order-preserving semigroups. We also determine…
We show that several problems that figure prominently in quantum computing, including Hidden Coset, Hidden Shift, and Orbit Coset, are equivalent or reducible to Hidden Subgroup for a large variety of groups. We also show that, over…
We exploit various inclusions of algebraic groups to give a new construction of groups of type E8, determine the Killing forms of the resulting E8's, and define an invariant of central simple algebras of degree 16 with orthogonal involution…
A complete classification of finitely generated involutive commutative two-valued groups is obtained. Three series of such two-valued groups are constructed: principal, unipotent and special, and it is shown that any finitely generated…
We give a conjectured evaluation of the determinant of a certain matrix $\tilde{D}(n,k)$. The entries of $\tilde{D}(n,k)$ are either 0 or specializations $\mathfrak{S}_w(1,\dots,1)$ of Schubert polynomials. The conjecture implies that the…
The purpose of this paper is to begin studying the computation of the nonzero determinant of semigroups within the class of finite semigroups that possesses a pair of non-commutative idempotents. This paper focuses on a class of these…
We investigate near-factorizations of nonabelian groups, concentrating on dihedral groups. We show that some known constructions of near-factorizations in dihedral groups yield equivalent near-factorizations. In fact, there are very few…
A computer calculation with Magma shows that there is no extremal self-dual binary code C of length 72, whose automorphism group contains the symmetric group of degree 3, the alternating group of degree 4 or the dihedral group of order 8.…
Let $FG$ be the group algebra of a finite $p$-group $G$ over a finite field $F$ of positive characteristic $p$. Let $\cd$ be an involution of the algebra $FG$ which is a linear extension of an anti-automorphism of the group $G$ to $FG$. If…
We prove a local analog of the Deligne-Riemann-Roch isomorphism in the case of line bundles and relative dimension $1$. This local analog consists in computation of the class of $12$th power of the determinant central extension of a group…
The Clifford group is the quotient of the normalizer of the Weyl-Heisenberg group in dimension $d$ by its centre. We prove that when $d$ is not prime the Clifford group is not a group unitary $2$-design. Furthermore, we prove that the…
By using the structure and some properties of extraspecial and generalized/almost extraspecial $p$-groups, we explicitly determine the number of elements of specific orders in such groups. As a consequence, one may find the number of cyclic…
A finite group $G$ is a called a DCI-group if any two isomorphic Cayley digraphs of $G$ are also isomorphic via an automorphism of $G$. If $G$ is a non-abelian generalised dihedral DCI-group, then Dobson, Muzychuk, and Spiga proved that $G$…
We consider decidability problems in self-similar semigroups, and in particular in semigroups of automatic transformations of $X^*$. We describe algorithms answering the word problem, and bound its complexity under some additional…
A set of invariants for a finite group is described. These arise naturally from Frobenius' early work on the group determinant and provide an answer to a question of Brauer. Whereas it is well known that the ordinary character table of a…
Using Dunkl operators, we introduce a continuous family of canonical invariants of finite reflection groups. We verify that the elementary canonical invariants of the symmetric group are deformations of the elementary symmetric polynomials.…
To supplement the already known classification of traces on classical pseudodifferential operators, we present a classification of traces on the algebras of odd-class pseudodifferential operators of non-positive order acting on smooth…
If $S=<d_1,...,d_\nu>$ is a numerical semigroup, we call the ring $\C[S]=\C[t^{d_1},...,t^{d_\nu}]$ the semigroup ring of $S$. We study the ring of differential operators on $\C[S]$, and its associated graded in the filtration induced by…
