For a group G and a positive integer n write B_n(G) = {x \in G : |x^G | \le n}. If s is a positive integer and w is a group word, say that G satisfies the (n,s)-covering condition with respect to the word w if there exists a subset S of G…

A finite group $G$ is called a Schur group, if any Schur ring over $G$ is associated in a natural way with a subgroup of $Sym(G)$ that contains all right translations. Recently, the authors have completely identified the cyclic Schur…

An isomorphism between the group ring of a finite group and a ring of certain block diagonal matrices is established. The group ring $RG$ of a finite group $G$ is isomorphic to the set of {\em group ring matrices} over $R$. It is shown that…

A Filbert matrix is a matrix whose (i,j) entry is 1/F_(i+j-1), where F_n is the nth Fibonacci number. The inverse of the n by n Filbert matrix resembles the inverse of the n by n Hilbert matrix, and we prove that it shares the property of…

We define "tracial" analogs of the Rokhlin property for actions of finite groups, approximate representability of actions of finite abelian groups, and of approximate innerness. We prove four analogs of related "nontracial" results. First,…

Centrosymmetric matrices of order $n$ over an arbitrary algebra $R$ form a subalgebra of the full $n\times n$ matrix algebra over $R$. It is called the centrosymmetric matrix algebra of order $n$ over $R$ and denoted by $S_n(R)$. We prove…

We prove that if $H$ is a subgroup of index $n$ of any cyclic group $G$, then $G$ can be isometrically embedded in $(H^n, d_{_{Ham}}^n)$, thus generalizing previous results of Carlet (1998) for $G=\mathbb{Z}_{2^k}$ and Yildiz-\"Ozger (2012)…

Let $\Gamma$ be a countable abelian group. An (abstract) $\Gamma$-system $\mathrm{X}$ - that is, an (abstract) probability space equipped with an (abstract) probability-preserving action of $\Gamma$ - is said to be a Conze-Lesigne system if…

Let G be a connected reductive group over an algebraic closure of a finite field Fq. In this paper it is proved that the infinite dimensional Steinberg module of kG defined by N. Xi in 2014 is irreducible when k is a field of positive…

We give canonical matrices of a pair (A,B) consisting of a nondegenerate form B and a linear operator A satisfying B(Ax,Ay)=B(x,y) on a vector space over F in the following cases: (i) F is an algebraically closed field of characteristic…

We are interested in the McKay quiver $\Gamma(G)$ and skew group rings $A*G$, where $G$ is a finite subgroup of $\mathrm{GL}(V)$, where $V$ is a finite dimensional vector space over a field $K$, and $A$ is a $K-G$-algebra. These skew group…

We classify the bireflections (products of 2 involutions) in the commutator subgroup G an orthogonal group O(V) over a finite field GF(q) of characteristic not 2. We show that every element of G is a bireflection if it is reversible…

We first describe a Rieffel induction system for groupoid crossed products. We then use this induction system to show that, given a regular groupoid $G$ and a dynamical system $(A,G,\alpha)$, every irreducible representation of $A\rtimes G$…

The space of $n \times m$ complex matrices can be regarded as an algebraic variety on which the group ${\bf GL}_n \times {\bf GL}_m$ acts. There is a rich interaction between geometry and representation theory in this example. In an…

In this article we define the continuous Gabor transform for second countable, non-abelian, unimodular and type I groups and also we investigate a Plancherel formula and an inversion formula for our definition. As an example we show that…

We generalize to the super context, the known fact that if an affine algebraic group $G$ over a commutative ring $k$ acts freely (in an appropriate sense) on an affine scheme $X$ over $k$, then the dur sheaf $X\tilde{\tilde{/}}G$ of…

We define generalized de Bruijn words as those words having a Burrows-Wheeler transform that is a concatenation of permutations of the alphabet. We show that generalized de Bruijn words are in 1-to-1 correspondence with Hamiltonian cycles…

A finite group $G$ is called a Schur group, if any Schur ring over $G$ is the transitivity module of a point stabilizer in a subgroup of $\sym(G)$ that contains all right translations. We complete a classification of abelian $2$-groups by…

Consider the general linear group, which is not connected but rather has two connected components, the matrices with positive determinant and the ones with negative determinant. Consider the Iwasawa decomposition of its special linear…

A new class of integrable mappings and chains is introduced. Corresponding $(1+2)$ integrable systems invariant with respect to such discrete transformations are presented in an explicit form. Their soliton-type solutions are constructed in…
