We prove the Burghelea Conjecture for groups satisfying some additional cohomological property.
Recently, a new conjecture on the degrees of the irreducible Brauer characters of a finite group was presented by the second author. In this paper we propose a 'local' version of this conjecture for blocks B of finite groups, giving a lower…
We develop an abstract framework for studying the strong form of Malle's conjecture for nilpotent groups $G$ in their regular representation. This framework is then used to prove the strong form of Malle's conjecture for any nilpotent group…
In their study of the Yamabe problem in the presence of isometry group, Hebey and Vaugon announced a conjecture. This conjecture generalizes Aubin's conjecture, which has already been proven and is sufficient to solve the Yamabe problem. In…
Using Easton collapses, we give a simplified construction of a model in which Chang's Conjecture for triples holds.
As a step to establish the blockwise Alperin weight conjecture for all finite groups, we verify the inductive blockwise Alperin weight condition introduced by Navarro--Tiep and Sp\"ath for simple groups of Lie type $\mathsf A$, split or…
We prove that if a solvable group A acts coprimely on a solvable group G, then A has a "large" orbit in its corresponding action on the set of ordinary complex irreducible characters of G. This extends (at the cost of a weaker bound) a 2005…
We give a simple proof of the Lalonde-McDuff conjecture for aspherical manifolds.
We extend a conjecture of Kimberley-Robertson on the abelianizations of certain square complex groups.
We give a few properties equivalent to the Bloch-Kato conjecture (now the norm residue isomorphism theorem).
This article is concerned with perfect isometries between blocks of finite groups. Generalizing a method of Enguehard to show that any two p-blocks of (possibly different) symmetric groups with the same weight are perfectly isometric, we…
Levin's conjecture has been established to hold true for group equations of length up to seven. Recently, it is shown that Levin's conjecture is also true (modulo exceptional cases) for some group equations of length eight and nine. In this…
In 1968, John Thompson proved that a finite group G is solvable if and only if every 2-generator subgroup of G is solvable. In this paper, we prove that solvability of a finite group G is guaranteed by a seemingly weaker condition: G is…
We propose a projective version of the celebrated Brauer's Height Zero Conjecture on characters of finite groups and prove it, among other cases, for $p$-solvable groups as well as for (some) quasi-simple groups.
A finite group G with center Z is of central type if there exists a fully ramified character $\lambda\in\mathrm{Irr}(Z)$, i.e. the induced character $\lambda^G$ is a multiple of an irreducible character. Howlett-Isaacs have shown that G is…
In this short note, we show some inequalities on Cartan matrices, centers and socles of blocks of group algebras. Our main theorems are generalizations of the facts on dimension of Reynolds ideals.
Given a group $G$ with bounded torsion that acts properly on a systolic complex, we show that every solvable subgroup of $G$ is finitely generated and virtually abelian of rank at most $2$. In particular this gives a new proof of the above…
In this paper we classify all blocks with defect group $C_{2^n}\times C_2\times C_2$ up to Morita equivalence. Together with a recent paper of Wu, Zhang and Zhou, this completes the classification of Morita equivalence classes of $2$-blocks…
In the present note, we give a short proof of Brennan's conjecture in the special case of continuous semigroups of holomorphic functions. We apply classical techniques of complex analysis in conjunction with recent results on…
In this paper we prove equivalences of categories relating the derived category of a block of the category of representations of a connected reductive algebraic group over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p$ bigger than the…
