Let $K:=\mathbb{Q}(G)$ be the number field generated by the complex character values of a finite group $G$. Let $\mathbb{Z}_K$ be the ring of integers of $K$. In this paper we investigate the suborder $\mathbb{Z}[G]$ of $\mathbb{Z}_K$…

We define a semantics for first-order logic with generalized quantifiers based on double teams. We also define and investigate a notion of a generalized atom. Such atoms can be used in order to define extensions of first-order logic with a…

Getting inspired by the famous no-three-in-line problem and by the general position subset selection problem from discrete geometry, the same is introduced into graph theory as follows. A set $S$ of vertices in a graph $G$ is a general…

In this paper we introduce the concept of corner element of a generalized numerical semigroup, which extends in a sense the idea of conductor of a numerical semigroup to generalized numerical semigroups in higher dimensions. We present…

The M\"{o}bius function of the subgroup lettice of a finite group $G$ has been introduced by Hall and applied to investigate several different questions. We propose the following generalization. Let $A$ be a subgroup of the automorphism…

We consider the rigid monoidal category of character sheaves on a smooth commutative group scheme $G$ over a finite field $k$ and expand the scope of the function-sheaf dictionary from connected commutative algebraic groups to this setting.…

We prove that the order of a finite group $G$ with trivial solvable radical is bounded above in terms of ${\rm acd}(G)$, the average degree of the irreducible characters. It is not true that the index of the Fitting subgroup is bounded…

The power graph of a group $G$ is a simple and undirected graph with vertex set $G$ and two distinct vertices are adjacent if one is a power of the other. In this article, we characterize (non-cyclic) finite groups of prime exponent and…

In this paper, we discuss some well-known results and some open problems of the theory of $\sigma$-properties of a group related to the study of generalized $T$-groups.

The study of verbal subgroups within a group is well-known for being an effective tool to obtain structural information about a group. Therefore, conditions that allow the classification of words in a free group are of paramount importance.…

In this paper we characterize generalized quasi-arithmetic means, that is means of the form $M(x_1,...,x_n):=(f_1+...+f_n)^{-1}(f_1(x_1)+...+f_n(x_n))$, where $f_1,...,f_n:I\to\mathbb{R}$ are strictly increasing and continuous functions.…

Let $G$ be a finite group of odd order admitting an involutory automorphism $\phi$. We obtain two results bounding the exponent of $[G,\phi]$. Denote by $G_{-\phi}$ the set $\{[g,\phi]\,\vert\, g\in G\}$ and by $G_{\phi}$ the centralizer of…

The interplay between groups and graphs have been the most famous and productive area of algebraic graph theory. In this paper, we introduce and study the graphs whose vertex set is group G such that two distinct vertices a and b having…

Let M be a filtered module. Some properties of elements of M are "generic" in the following sense: (being open/stable) if an element z of M has a property P then any approximation of z has P; (being dense) any element of M is approximated…

We study the properties of the set where a generalized function of bounded variation has infinite approximate limit, highlighting in this way the main geometric difference with functions of bounded variation. To this aim we prove a new…

We generalize a result of Chen concerning an isogeny between products of jacobians of modular curves associated to subgroups of GL(2,F_p). This generalization concerns objects with an action by GL(2,F) with F an arbitrary finite field, in…

Let k be a field of characteristic 2 and let L/k be a finite Galois extension with Galois group G. We show the equivalence of the following two properties: (*) The group G is generated by elements of order 2 and by elements of odd order.…

In the first chapters, this paper contains a survey on the theory of ordinary characters of finite reductive groups with non-connected centre. The last chapters are devoted to the proof of Lusztig's conjecture on characteristic functions of…
