The Baer--Suzuki theorem says that if $p$ is a prime, $x$ is a $p$-element in a finite group $G$ and $\langle x, x^g \rangle$ is a $p$-group for all $g \in G$, then the normal closure of $x$ in $G$ is a $p$-group. We consider the case where…

Let $K$ be an imaginary quadratic field where $p$ splits, $p\geq5$ a prime number and $f$ an eigen-newform of even weight and level $N>3$ that is coprime to $p$. Under the Heegner hypothesis, Kobayashi--Ota showed that one inclusion of the…

We prove that the Quillen posets $\mathcal{A}_p(H)$ of $p$-extensions $H$ of simple unitary groups have non-zero homology in the largest possible dimension, with just a few exceptions. This establishes a conjecture raised by…

For primes $p$ and $\ell$ such that $\ell$ divides $p-1$, Hirano and Morishita constructed a nonabelian Galois extension of the function field $\mathbb{F}_p(t)$ whose degree is $\ell^3$ and Galois group is of Heisenberg type. Here we…

Let p be an odd prime and let L/k be a Galois extension of number fields whose Galois group is isomorphic to the dihedral group of order 2p. Let S be a finite set of primes of L which is stable under the action of Gal(L/k). The Lichtenbaum…

An $S$-ring (a Schur ring) is said to be separable with respect to a class of groups $\mathcal{K}$ if every its algebraic isomorphism to an $S$-ring over a group from $\mathcal{K}$ is induced by a combinatorial isomorphism. We prove that…

If G is a finite group, we have proposed new conjectures on the interaction between different primes and their corresponding Brauer principal blocks. In this paper, we give strong support to the validity of these conjectures.

The Bounded Height Conjecture of Bombieri, Masser, and Zannier states that for any sufficiently generic algebraic subvariety of a semiabelian $\overline{\mathbb{Q}}$-variety $G$ there is an upper bound on the Weil height of the points…

We construct solvable groups where the only degree of an irreducible character that is a prime power is $1$ and that have arbitrarily large Fitting heights. We will show that we can construct such groups that also have a Sylow tower. We…

In a recent paper, Gabriel Navarro and Pham Huu Tiep show that the so-called Alperin Weight Conjecture can be verified via the Classification of the Finite Simple Groups, provided any simple group fulfills a very precise list of conditions.…

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 Brauer-Siegel theorem concerns the size of the product of the class number and the regulator of a number field $K$. We derive bounds for this product in case $K$ is a prime cyclotomic field, distinguishing between whether there is a…

Let L/k be a finite Galois extension of number fields with Galois group G. For every odd prime p satisfying certain mild technical hypotheses, we use values of Artin L-functions to construct an element in the centre of the group ring…

Let $N$ be normal subgroup of a finite group $G$, $p$ be a prime, $P$ be a Sylow $p$-subgroup of $G$ and $\theta$ be a $P$-invariant irreducible character of $N$. Suppose that $G/N$ is a $p$-solvable group. In this note we show that,…

Let $f$ and $g$ be two different newforms without complex multiplication having the same coefficient field. The main result of the present article proves that a congruence between the Galois representations attached to $f$ and to $g$ for a…

Let $p$ be a prime number, $k$ an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p$, $\tilde{G}$ a finite group, and $G$ a normal subgroup of $\tilde{G}$ having a $p$-power index in $\tilde{G}$. Moreover let $B$ be a block of $kG$ with a…

This article is the final one of a series of articles on certain blocks of modular representations of finite groups of Lie type and the associated geometry. We prove the conjecture of Brou\'e on derived equivalences induced by the complex…

Let $G$ be a finite group, let $\pi$ be a set of primes and let $p$ be the smallest prime in $\pi$. In this work, we prove that $G$ possesses a normal and abelian Hall $\pi$-subgroup if and only if the probability that two random…

Let G be a semisimple affine algebraic group of inner type over a field F. We write C for the class of all finite direct products of projective G-homogeneous F-varieties. We determine the structure of the Chow motives with coefficients in a…
