Let $G$ be a finite group of order divisible by two distinct primes $p$ and $q$. We show that $G$ possesses a non-trivial irreducible character of degree not divisible by $p$ nor $q$ lying in both the principal $p$- and $q$-block whenever…

We study congruences for Eisenstein series on $\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{Z})$ modulo $p^2$, where $p \geq 5$ is prime. It is classically known that all Eisenstein series of weight at least $4$ are determined modulo $p^2$ by those of weight at…

Let p>3 be a prime, f a positive integer and Q_{p^f} the unramified extension of Q_p of degree f. After Breuil and Paskunas, to a generic semi-simple continue modulo p representation of the absolute Galois group of Q_{p^f}, we can associate…

We find an upper bound for the number of groups of order $n$ up to isomorphism in the variety $G = A_pA_qA_r$, where $p$, $q$ and $r$ are distinct primes. We also find a bound on the orders and on the number of conjugacy classes of…

Let $p,q$ be prime numbers with $p^4<q$, and $k$ an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0. We show that semisimple Hopf algebras of dimension $p^2q^2$ can be constructed either from group algebras and their duals by means of…

This article is divided in two parts. In the first part we endow a certain ring of ``Drinfeld quasi-modular forms'' for $\GL_2(\FF_q[T])$ (where $q$ is a power of a prime) with a system of "divided derivatives" (or hyperderivations). This…

Given an irreducible representation of $SL_2(F_q)$ for an odd prime $q\geq 5$, we find the dimension of the space of cusp forms with respect to the full modular group taking values in the representation space. The dimension equals the…

Groups of order $4$ are isomorphic to either $\mathbb{Z}/4\mathbb{Z}$ or $\mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z} \times \mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z}$. We give certain sufficient conditions permitting to specify the structure of class groups of order $4$ in the…

In this paper, we establish theorems of Bombieri-Vinogradov type and Barban-Davenport-Halberstam type for sparse sets of moduli. As an application, we prove that there exist infinitely many primes of the form $p=am^2+1$ such that $a\leq…

This paper is a contribution to the construction of non-semisimple modular categories. We establish when M\"uger centralizers inside non-semisimple modular categories are also modular. As a consequence, we obtain conditions under which…

In this paper we consider two functions related to the arithmetic and geometric means of element orders of a finite group, showing that certain lower bounds on such functions strongly affect the group structure. In particular, for every…

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…

We compute the l-modular decomposition matrices of the simple Ree groups 2F4(q^2), where q^2=2^{2n+1} and n is a positive integer, for all primes l > 3 up to some entries in the unipotent characters. Using these matrices we determine the…

Based on recent successes concerning permutation resolutions of representations by Balmer and Gallauer we define a new invariant of finite groups: the p-permutation dimension. We define this analogously to the global dimension of a ring by…

We prove that, if $x$ and $q\leqslant x^{1/16}$ are two parameters, then for any invertible residue class $a$ modulo $q$ there exists a product of exactly three primes, each one below $x^{1/3}$, that is congruent to $a$ modulo $q$.

Let p > 2 be a prime number and let N be any rational integer. We consider the p-class groups Cl(L), Cl(M) of the fields $L:=Q(N^{1/p})$ and $M:=Q(N^{1/p},\mu_p)$, by comparison with the p-torsion groups T(L) and T(M) of the abelian…

We classify pro-$p$ Poincar\'e duality pairs in dimension two. We then use this classification to build a pro-$p$ analogue of the curve complex and establish its basic properties. We conclude with some statements concerning separability…

Suppose that $n$ is $0$ or $4$ modulo $6$. We show that there are infinitely many primes of the form $p^2 + nq^2$ with both $p$ and $q$ prime, and obtain an asymptotic for their number. In particular, when $n = 4$ we verify the `Gaussian…

We prove that if $G$ is finite 2-generated $p$-group of nilpotence class at most 2 then the group algebra of $G$ with coefficients in the field with $p$ elements determines $G$ up to isomorphisms.

Here we initiate a program to study relationships between finite groups and arithmetic-geometric invariants in a systematic way. To do this we first introduce a notion of optimal module for a finite group in the setting of holomorphic mock…
