In this paper we expand on previous results, studying the extent to which one can detect fusion in certain finite groups $\Gamma$, from information about the universal deformation rings of absolutely irreducible…

Many open conjectures in the representation theory of finite groups can be studied by reducing them to related questions about quasi-simple groups. In such studies, $p$-radical subgroups typically play a critical role. To classify the…

We introduce a new class of locally compact groups, namely the strongly compactly covered groups, which are the Hausdorff topological groups $G$ such that every element of $G$ is contained in a compact open normal subgroup of $G$. For…

We continue our investigation of a variation of the group ring isomorphism problem for twisted group algebras. Contrary to previous work, we include cohomology classes which do not contain any cocycle of finite order. This allows us to…

We describe all groups that can be generated by two twists along spherical sequences in an enhanced triangulated category. It will be shown that with one exception such a group is isomorphic to an abelian group generated by not more than…

For which groups $G$ is it true that for all fields $k$, every non-monomial element of the group algebra $k\,G$ generates a proper $2$-sided ideal? The only groups for which we know this are the torsion-free abelian groups. We would like to…

An $S$-ring (Schur ring) is called separable with respect to a class of $S$-rings $\mathcal{K}$ if it is determined up to isomorphism in $\mathcal{K}$ only by the tensor of its structure constants. An abelian group is said to be separable…

In this note, we give the explicit formula for the number of multisubsets of a finite abelian group $G$ with any given size such that the sum is equal to a given element $g\in G$. This also gives the number of partitions of $g$ into a given…

Let A be an abelian surface over F_q, the field of q elements. The rational points on A/\F_q form an abelian group A(\F_q) \simeq \Z/n_1\Z \times \Z/n_1 n_2 \Z \times \Z/n_1 n_2 n_3\Z \times\Z/n_1 n_2 n_3 n_4\Z. We are interested in knowing…

In this note, we will give an positive answer to Pan-Rong's conjecture that for an open manifold with nonnegative Ricci curvature, if its universal cover has Euclidean volume growth, then its fundamental group is finitely generated.…

In this paper we determine the torsion free rank of the group of endotrivial modules for any finite group of Lie type, in both defining and non-defining characteristic. On our way to proving this, we classify the maximal rank $2$ elementary…

Problem 5.1 in page 181 of [Fuc15] asks to find the cardinals $\lambda$ such that there is a universal abelian $p$-group for purity of cardinality $\lambda$, i.e., an abelian $p$-group $U_\lambda$ of cardinality $\lambda$ such that every…

For a group $G,$ let $\Gamma(G)$ denote the graph defined on the elements of $G$ in such a way that two distinct vertices are connected by an edge if and only if they generate $G$. Moreover let $\Gamma^*(G)$ be the subgraph of $\Gamma(G)$…

Let p be an odd prime, F the field of p elements and G a finite abelian p-group with an arbitrary involutory automorphism. Extend this automorphism to the group algebra FG and consider the unitary and the symmetric normalized units of FG.…

We prove a conjecture due to Baumgaertel and Lledo according to which for every compact group G one has Z(G)^ \cong C(G), where the `chain group' C(G) is the free abelian group (written multiplicatively) generated by the set G^ of…

In this note, we investigate how different fundamental groups of presentations of a fixed algebra $A$ can be. For finitely many finitely presented groups $G_i$, we construct an algebra $A$ such that all $G_i$ appear as fundamental groups of…

In this paper, we first study the endomorphisms of free-abelian times surface groups and give a characterization of when they are injective and surjective. Then, we see that free-abelian times hyperbolic groups are Hopfian but not…

It is proved for Abelian groups that the Reidemeister coincidence number of two endomorphisms $\phi$ and $\psi$ is equal to the number of coincidence points of $\wh\phi$ and $\wh\psi$ on the unitary dual, if the Reidemeister number is…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $\mathcal{U} (\mathbb{Z} G)$ the unit group of the integral group ring $\mathbb{Z} G$. We prove a unit theorem, namely a characterization of when $\mathcal{U}(\mathbb{Z}G)$ satisfies Kazhdan's property…

Let $K$ be a field and $f:\mathbb{P}^N \to \mathbb{P}^N$ a morphism. There is a natural conjugation action on the space of such morphisms by elements of the projective linear group $\text{PGL}_{N+1}$. The group of automorphisms, or…
