Clifford theory establishes a relation between the representation theory of a finite group and its normal subgroups. In this paper, we establish the Clifford theory for the modular representations of finite groups. The proofs are based on…

Let $G$ denote a finite abelian group with identity 1 and let $S$ denote an inverse-closed subset of $G \setminus {1}$, which generates $G$ and for which there exists $s \in S$, such that $\la S \setminus \{s,s^{-1}\} \ra \ne G$. In this…

A connected linear algebraic group G is called a Cayley group if the Lie algebra of G endowed with the adjoint G-action and the group variety of G endowed with the conjugation G-action are birationally G-isomorphic. In particular, the…

In this paper we introduce a new species of evolution algebras that we call Cayley evolution algebras. We show that if a field $k$ contains sufficiently many elements (for example if $k$ is infinite) then every finite group $G$ is…

Skew morphisms, which generalise automorphisms for groups, provide a fundamental tool for the study of regular Cayley maps and, more generally, for finite groups with a complementary factorisation $G=BY$, where $Y$ is cyclic and core-free…

In this paper, we prove that the maximal order of a semiregular element in the automorphism group of a cubic vertex-transitive graph X does not tend to infinity as the number of vertices of X tends to infinity. This gives a solution (in the…

If $G$ is a group acting on a tree $X$, and ${\mathcal S}$ is a $G$-equivariant sheaf of vector spaces on $X$, then its compactly-supported cohomology is a representation of $G$. Under a finiteness hypothesis, we prove that if $H_c^0(X,…

It is well known that there exist non-isomorphic compact groups with isomorphic representation rings (fusion rules). Nevertheless, considerable structural information about the group can be reconstructed from its representation ring. We…

Representations of a group $G$ in vector spaces over a field $K$ form a category. One can reconstruct the given group $G$ from its representations to vector spaces as the full group of monoidal automorphisms of the underlying functor. This…

In physical systems possessing symmetry, reconstructing the underlying causal structure from observational data constitutes an inverse problem of fundamental importance. In this work, we formulate the inverse problem of causal inference…

The theory of representations of Clifford algebras is extended to employ the division algebra of the octonions or Cayley numbers. In particular, questions that arise from the non-associativity and non-commutativity of this division algebra…

Let $X=GD$ be a group, where $G$ is a nonabelian simple group and $D$ is a dihedral group. These groups $X$ are closely related to regular Cayley maps. The main theorems of this paper describes $X$.

We present some generalizations of the well-known correspondence, found by R. Exel, between partial actions of a group $G$ on a set $X$ and semigroup homomorphism of $S(G)$ on the semigroup $I(X)$ of partial bijections of $X,$ being $S(G)$…

A graph $\G$ with a group $H$ of automorphisms acting semiregularly on the vertices with two orbits is called a {\em bi-Cayley graph} over $H$. When $H$ is a normal subgroup of $\Aut(\G)$, we say that $\G$ is {\em normal} with respect to…

In this work, we establish a representation theorem for multivariable totally symmetric functions: a multisymmetric continuous function must be the composition of a continuous function and a set of generators of the multisymmetric…

We investigate subsets of the symmetric group with structure similar to that of a graph. The trees of these subsets correspond to minimal conjugate generating sets of the symmetric group. There are two main theorems in this paper. The first…

A semi-projective representation is a homomorphism of a finite group into the group of semi-projective transformations of a finite dimensional vector space over a field. Schur's concept of a representation group for projective…

Given a one-sided subshift $X$ on a finite alphabet, we consider the semigroup $S_X =L_X \cup \{0\}$, where $L_X $ is the language of $X $, equipped with the multiplication operation given by concatenation, when allowed, and set to vanish…

The symmetric inverse semigroup $I(X)$ on a set $X$ is the collection of all partial bijections between subsets of $X$ with composition as the algebraic operation. We study a minimal Hausdorff inverse semigroup topologies on $I(X)$. When…

Semiclassical systems being symmetric under Lie group are studied. A state of a semiclassical system may be viewed as a set (X,f) of a classical state X and a quantum state f in the external classical background X. Therefore, the set of all…
