We study in general spacetime dimension the symmetry of the theory obtained by gauging a non-anomalous finite normal Abelian subgroup $A$ of a $\Gamma$-symmetric theory. Depending on how anomalous $\Gamma$ is, we find that the symmetry of…

Each Abelian subgroup of the fundamental group of a compact and locally simply connected $d$-dimensional length space with no conjugate points is isomorphic to $\mathbb{Z}^k$ for some $0 \leq k \leq d$. It follows from this and previously…

In this communication, the co-maximal subgroup graph $\Gamma(G)$ of a finite group $G$ is examined when $G$ is a finite nilpotent group, finite abelian group, dihedral group $D_n$, dicyclic group $Q_{2^n}$, and $p$-group. We derive the…

Let G be an abelian group and let lambda be the smallest rank of any group whose direct sum with a free group is isomorphic to G. If lambda is uncountable, then G has lambda pairwise disjoint, non-free subgroups. There is an example where…

Given a non-trivial finite Abelian group $(A,+)$, let $n(A) \ge 2$ be the smallest integer such that for every labelling of the arcs of the bidirected complete graph of order $n(A)$ with elements from $A$ there exists a directed cycle for…

The distributive property can be studied through bilinear maps and various morphisms between these maps. The adjoint-morphisms between bilinear maps establish a complete abelian category with projectives and admits a duality. Thus the…

A subset $D$ of an Abelian group is $decomposable$ if $\emptyset\ne D\subset D+D$. In the paper we give partial answer to an open problem asking whether every finite decomposable subset $D$ of an Abelian group contains a non-empty subset…

A square complex is a 2-complex formed by gluing squares together. This article is concerned with the fundamental group $\Gamma$ of certain square complexes of nonpositive curvature, related to quaternion algebras. The abelian subgroup…

We study finite groups that occur as combinatorial automorphism groups or geometric symmetry groups of convex polytopes. When $\Gamma$ is a subgroup of the combinatorial automorphism group of a convex $d$-polytope, $d\geq 3$, then there…

It is proved that the assembly map in algebraic K- and L-theory with respect to the family of finite subgroups is injective for groups $\Gamma$ with finite quotient finite decomposition complexity (a strengthening of finite decomposition…

For an abelian group $\Gamma$, a $\Gamma$-labelled graph is a graph whose vertices are labelled by elements of $\Gamma$. We prove that a certain collection of edge sets of a $\Gamma$-labelled graph forms a delta-matroid, which we call a…

The distribution of cardinalities of zero-sum sets in abelian groups is completely determined. A complex summation involving the M\"obius function is given for the general abelian group, while in many special cases, including the case of…

In this paper we study sum-free sets of order $m$ in finite Abelian groups. We prove a general theorem on 3-uniform hypergraphs, which allows us to deduce structural results in the sparse setting from stability results in the dense setting.…

There are nontrivial dualities and parallels between polynomial algebras and the Grassmann algebras. This paper is an attempt to look at the Grassmann algebras at the angle of the Jacobian conjecture for polynomial algebras (which is the…

Let $G$ be a finite, non-abelian group of the form $G = A N$, where $A \leq G$ is abelian, and $N \trianglelefteq G$ is cyclic. We prove that the commuting graph $\Gamma(G)$ of $G$ is either a connected graph of diameter at most four, or…

Let $G$ be a connected semisimple real algebraic group and $\Gamma<G$ be its Zariski dense discrete subgroup. We prove that if $\Gamma\backslash G$ admits any finite Bowen-Margulis-Sullivan measure, then $\Gamma$ is virtually a product of…

Let $n\geq 3$. In this paper we show that for any finite abelian subgroup $G$ of $S_n$ the crystallographic group $B_n/[P_n,P_n]$ has Bieberbach subgroups $\Gamma_{G}$ with holonomy group $G$. Using this approach we obtain an explicit…

Zero-sum problems for abelian groups and covers of the integers by residue classes, are two different active topics initiated by P. Erdos more than 40 years ago and investigated by many researchers separately since then. In an earlier…

We construct an embedding G of the category of graphs into the category of abelian groups such that for graphs X and Y we have Hom(GX,GY)=Z[Hom(X,Y)], the free abelian group whose basis is the set Hom(X,Y). The isomorphism is functorial in…

Let $G$ be an additive finite abelian group and $\Gamma \subset \operatorname{End} (G)$ be a subset of the endomorphism group of $G$. A sequence $S = g_1 \cdot \ldots \cdot g_{\ell}$ over $G$ is a ($\Gamma$-)weighted zero-sum sequence if…
