Let $G$ be a locally compact amenable group. We say that G has property (M) if every closed subgroup of finite covolume in G is cocompact. A classical theorem of Mostow ensures that connected solvable Lie groups have property (M). We prove…

The notion of locally quasi-convex abelian group, introduce by Vilenkin, is extended to maximally almost-periodic non-necessarily abelian groups. For that purpose, we look at certain bornologies that can be defined on the set…

Tkachenko and Yaschenko [34] characterized the abelian groups G such that all proper unconditionally closed subsets of G are finite, these are precisely the abelian groups G having cofinite Zariski topology (they proved that such a G is…

We show that if G is a finite group then no chain of modular elements in its subgroup lattice L(G) is longer than a chief series. Also, we show that if G is a nonsolvable finite group then every maximal chain in L(G) has length at least two…

Assume $G$ is a solvable group whose elementary abelian sections are all finite. Suppose, further, that $p$ is a prime such that $G$ fails to contain any subgroups isomorphic to $C_{p^\infty}$. We show that if $G$ is nilpotent, then the…

I discuss a family of statistical-mechanics models in which (some classes of) elements of a finite group $G$ occupy the (directed) edges of a lattice; the product around any plaquette is constrained to be the group identity $e$. Such a…

The Chermak-Delgado lattice of a finite group $G$ is a self-dual sublattice of the subgroup lattice of $G$. In this paper, we focus on finite groups whose Chermak-Delgado lattice is a subgroup lattice of an elementary abelian $p$-group. We…

Let $G$ be a Lie group, with an invariant non-degenerate symmetric bilinear form on its Lie algebra, let $\pi$ be the fundamental group of an orientable (real) surface $M$ with a finite number of punctures, and let $\bold C$ be a family of…

A lattice-ordered group (an $\ell$-group) $G(\oplus, \vee, \wedge)$ can be naturally viewed as a semiring $G(\vee,\oplus)$. We give a full classification of (abelian) $\ell$-groups which are finitely generated as semirings, by first showing…

In the present paper we introduce and study a canonical ${\cal E}$-lattice structure on the set of element orders of some finite groups. We show that a finite abelian group is uniquely determined by this canonical ${\cal E}$-lattice.

According to Markov, a subset of an abelian group G of the form {x in G: nx=a}, for some integer n and some element a of G, is an elementary algebraic set; finite unions of elementary algebraic sets are called algebraic sets. We prove that…

Let $V$ be a finite dimensional complex linear space and let $G$ be an irreducible finite subgroup of $\GL(V)$. For a $G$-invariant lattice $\Lambda$ in $V$ of maximal rank, we give a description of structure of the complex torus…

An l-group G is an abelian group equipped with a translation invariant lattice order. Baker and Beynon proved that G is finitely generated projective iff it is finitely presented. A unital l-group is an l-group G with a distinguished order…

We study groups endowed with Alexandroff topologies and show that no non-discrete Alexandroff topology can turn a group into a topological group. This settles negatively the basic existence problem for Alexandroff topological groups.…

For a finite group $G$, let $LC(G)$ be the subgroup generated by elements $x$ such that, for all $y \in G$ and all integers $n$, the order of $x^n y$ divides the least common multiple of the orders of $x$ and $y$. This subgroup is a…

We associate a graph $\mathcal{N}_{G}$ with a group $G$ (called the non-nilpotent graph of $G$) as follows: take $G$ as the vertex set and two vertices are adjacent if they generate a non-nilpotent subgroup. In this paper we study the graph…

We study finite groups $G$ with the property that for any subgroup $M$ maximal in $G$ whose order is divisible by all the prime divisors of $|G|$, $M$ is supersolvable. We show that any nonabelian simple group can occur as a composition…

We present Monte Carlo simulations on a new class of lattice models in which the degrees of freedom are elements of an abelian or non-abelian finite symmetry group G, placed on directed edges of a two-dimensional lattice. The plaquette…

The concept of a C-approximable group, for a class of finite groups C, is a common generalization of the concepts of a sofic, weakly sofic, and linear sofic group. Glebsky raised the question whether all groups are approximable by finite…

This paper is a contribution to the study of the subgroup structure of exceptional algebraic groups over algebraically closed fields of arbitrary characteristic. Following Serre, a closed subgroup of a semisimple algebraic group $G$ is…
