Dimension groups are complete invariants of strong orbit equivalence for minimal Cantor systems. This paper studies a natural family of minimal Cantor systems having a finitely generated dimension group, namely the primitive unimodular…
The diameter of a graph is among its most basic parameters. Since a few years, it moreover became a key issue to compute it for massive graphs in the context of complex network analysis. However, known algorithms, including the ones…
We obtain results about fundamental groups of $RCD^{\ast}(K,N)$ spaces previously known under additional conditions such as smoothness or lower sectional curvature bounds. For fixed $K \in \mathbb{R}$, $N \in [1,\infty )$, $D > 0 $, we show…
For a commutative finite $\mathbb{Z}$-algebra, i.e., for a commutative ring $R$ whose additive group is finitely generated, it is known that the group of units of $R$ is finitely generated, as well. Our main results are algorithms to…
We study the irreducible representations of simple algebraic groups in which some non-central semisimple element has at most one eigenvalue of multiplicity greater than 1. We bound the multiplicity of this eigenvalue in terms of the rank of…
Let G be a finite group of order n and V an irreducible representation over the complex numbers of dimension d. For some nonnegative number e, we have n=d(d+e). If e is small, then the character of V has unusually large degree. We fix e and…
For an abelian variety $A$ over a number field we study bounds depending only on the dimension of $A$ for the minimal degree $d(A)$ of a field extension over which $A$ acquires semi-stable reduction. We first compute $d(A)$ in terms of the…
We describe and count the maximal subsemigroups of many well-known monoids of transformations and monoids of partitions. More precisely, we find the maximal subsemigroups of the full spectrum of monoids of order- or orientation-preserving…
In this paper we determine the at least $4$-dimensional affine reductive homogeneous manifolds for an at most $9$-dimensional simple Lie group or an at most $6$-dimensional semi-simple Lie group. Those reductive spaces among them which…
In this paper, we define the complex dimension of any additive subgroup of R^{n}$which generalize the euclidien dimension given for the vector space. We give an explicit method to calculate this dimension.
A ring $R$ with center $C$ is said to be \textit{centrally essential} if the module $R_C$ is an essential extension of the module $C_C$. In the paper, we study groups whose group algebras over fields are centrally essential rings. We focus…
We estimate the proportion of several classes of elements in finite classical groups which are readily recognised algorithmically, and for which some power has a large fixed point subspace and acts irreducibly on a complement of it. The…
For a finite group $G$, let $\text{rdim}(G)$ denote the smallest dimension of a faithful, complex linear representation of $G$. It is clear that $\text{rdim}(H)\leq \text{rdim}(G)$ for any subgroup $H$ of $G$. We consider $G$ with the…
For every connected, almost simple linear algebraic group $G\leq\mathrm{GL}_{n}$ over a large enough field $K$, every subvariety $V\subseteq G$, and every finite generating set $A\subseteq G(K)$, we prove a general dimensional bound, that…
Several recent problems in the representation theory of finite groups require determining whether certain characters of almost simple groups belong to the principal block. Since the values of these characters are not yet known, we employ…
We study the complex irreducible representations of special linear, symplectic, orthogonal and unitary groups over principal ideal local rings of length two. We construct a canonical correspondence between the irreducible representations of…
Let $G$ be a permutation group on a finite set $\Omega$. The base size of $G$ is the minimal size of a subset of $\Omega$ with trivial pointwise stabiliser in $G$. In this paper, we extend earlier work of Fawcett by determining the precise…
We give a complete description of the absolute of commutative finitely generated groups and semigroups. The absolute (previously called the exit boundary) is a further elaboration of the notion of the boundary of a random walk on a group…
Various descending chains of subgroups of a finite permutation group can be used to define a sequence of `basic' permutation groups that are analogues of composition factors for abstract finite groups. Primitive groups have been the…
Let \(G\) be a finite group, and let \(\Delta(G)\) denote the \emph{prime graph} built on the set of degrees of the irreducible complex characters of \(G\). It is well known that, whenever \(\Delta(G)\) is connected, the diameter of…
