This paper has two main parts. Firstly, we give a classification of the $\ell$-blocks of finite special linear and unitary groups $SL_n(\epsilon q)$ in the non-defining characteristic $\ell\ge 3$. Secondly, we describe how the…

We classify finite $p$-groups, upto isoclinism, which have only two conjugacy class sizes $1$ and $p^3$. It turns out that the nilpotency class of such groups is $2$.

We consider dense 2-generator multiplicative subgroups in $\mathbb C$ and show that for each point $z\in \mathbb C$ the set of limit values for the arguments of the powers of each generator at the point $z$ is either finite or is…

A pointed $p$-group is a pointed group $P_\gamma$ such that $P$ is a $p$-group. We parameterize the pointed $p$-groups on a group algebra or on a block algebra of a group algebra. The parameterization involves $p$-subgroups and irreducible…

Let $G$ be a finite $p$-group of order $p^n$. YA. G. Berkovich (Journal of Algebra {\bf 144}, 269-272 (1991)) proved that $G$ is elementary abelian $p$-group if and only if the order of its Schur multiplier, $M(G)$, is at the maximum case.…

The elementary divisors of the incidence matrix of lines in PG(3,q) are computed, where two lines are incident if and only if they are skew.

There are several natural families of groups acting on rooted trees for which every member is known to be amenable. It is, however, unclear what the elementary amenable members of these families look like. Towards clarifying this situation,…

We prove a first part of the standard description of groups $H$ lying between an exterior power of an elementary group $\bigwedge^m E_n(R)$ and a general linear group $GL_{n \choose m}(R)$ for a commutative ring $R$, $2\in R^*$ and…

This paper is concerned with extensions of geometric stability theory to some nonelementary classes. We prove the following theorem: Theorem: Let C be a large homogeneous model of a stable diagram D. Let p, q in S_D(A), where p is…

Given a prime $p$, we construct a permutation group containing at least $p^{p-2}$ non-conjugated regular elementary abelian subgroups of order $p^3$. This gives the first example of a permutation group with exponentially many non-conjugated…

For a number field K, we show that any S-arithmetic subgroup of SL_2(K) contains a subgroup of finite index generated by three elements if card(S)> 1.

We derive a lower and an upper bound for the rank of the finite part of operator $K$-theory groups of maximal and reduced $C^*$-algebras of finitely generated groups. The lower bound is based on the amount of polynomially growing conjugacy…

Let D be a division ring such that the number of conjugacy classes in the multiplicative group D^* is equal to the power of D^*. Suppose that H(V) is the group GL(V) or PGL(V), where V is an infinite-dimensional vector space over D. We…

We analyse the complexity of the computation of the class group structure, regulator, and a system of fundamental units of a certain class of number fields. Our approach differs from Buchmann's, who proved a complexity bound of L(1/2,O(1))…

We classify the nonsplit extensions of elementary abelian $p$-groups by $PSL_2(q)$, with odd $p$ dividing $q-1$, for an irreducible induced action, calculate the relevant low-dimensional cohomology groups, and describe the automorphism…

Suppose that all nontrivial subsections of a $p$-block $B$ are conjugate (where $p$ is a prime). By using the classification of the finite simple groups, we prove that the defect groups of $B$ are either extraspecial of order $p^3$ with $p…

We construct, for the first time, various types of specific non-special finite $p$-groups having abelian automorphism group. More specifically, we construct groups $G$ with abelian automorphism group such that $\gamma_2(G) < \mathrm{Z}(G) <…

It is proved that (elementary) Chevalley groups $G_\pi (\Phi,K)$ and $G_{\pi'}(\Phi',K')$ (or $E_\pi (\Phi,K)$ and $E_{\pi'}(\Phi',K'))$ over infinite fields $K$ and $K'$ of characteristics $\ne 2$, with weight lattices $\Lambda$ and…

In this paper, we describe an algorithm that efficiently collect relations in class groups of number fields defined by a small defining polynomial. This conditional improvement consists in testing directly the smoothness of principal ideals…

A new set of elementary symplectic elements is described, It is shown that these also generate the elementary symplectic group {\rm ESp}$_{2n}(R)$. These generators are more symmetrical than the usual ones, and are useful to study the…
