It is well known that the normaliser of a parabolic subgroup of a finite Coxeter group is the semidirect product of the parabolic subgroup by the stabiliser of a set of simple roots. We show that a similar result holds for all finite…

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…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $x$ be an element of $G$. Define $\textrm{Sol}_G(x)$ as the set of all $y \in G$ such that $\langle {x,y}\rangle$ is soluble. We provide an equivalent condition for the normalizer-solubilizer conjecture, namely…

Let $\mathbb{A} = (A, \cdot)$ be a semigroup. We generalize some recent results by G. A. Freiman, M. Herzog and coauthors on the structure theory of set addition from the context of linearly orderable groups to linearly orderable…

We study $\mu$-stabilizers for groups definable in ACVF in the valued field sort. We prove that $\mathrm{Stab}^\mu(p)$ is an infinite unbounded definable subgroup of $G$ when $p$ is standard and unbounded. In the particular case when $G$ is…

We consider semi-continuity of certain dimensions on group schemes.

Let $H$ be a subgroup of a group $G$. The permutizer $P_G(H)$ is the subgroup generated by all cyclic subgroups of $G$ which permute with $H$. A subgroup $H$ of a group $G$ is strongly permutable in $G$ if $P_U(H)=U$ for every subgroup $U$…

Let $K$ be a $p$-adically closed field and $G$ a group interpretable in $K$. We show that if $G$ is definably semisimple (i.e. $G$ has no definable infinite normal abelian subgroups) then there exists a finite normal subgroup $H$ such that…

Given a finite group $G$, the solubilizer of an element $x$, denoted by $\Sol_G(x)$, is the set of all elements $y$ such that $\langle x, y\rangle$ is a soluble subgroup of $G$. In this paper, we provide a classification for all…

This paper examines order three elements of finite groups which normalize no nontrivial 2-subgroup. The motivation for finding such elements arises out of a problem in modular representation theory. The question of when these elements…

For a finite group $G$ and an element $x\in G$, the subset $$ nil_G(x)=\{y\in G \mid <x,y>~~ is ~~ nilpotent\}$$ is called nilpotentizer of $x$ in $G$. In this paper, we give two solvabilty criteria for a finite group by the structure and…

In this article we prove results about finite soluble groups that act with fixity 2 or 3.

The role of finite centralizers of involutions in pseudo-finite groups is analyzed. It is shown that a pseudo-finite group admitting a definable involutory automorphism fixing only finitely many elements is finite-by-abelian-by-finite. As a…

We describe immanants as trivial modules of the symmetric group and show that any homogeneous polynomial of degree n on the space of n by n matrices preserved up to scalar by left and right action by diagonal matrices and conjugation by…

A 2-covering for a finite group $G$ is a set of proper subgroups of $G$ such that every pair of elements of $G$ is contained in at least one subgroup in the set. The minimal number of subgroups needed to 2-cover a group $G$ is called the…

We determine the irreducible 2-modular representations of the symplectic group $G=Sp_{2n}(2)$ whose restriction to every abelian subgroup has a trivial constituent. A similar result is obtained for maximal tori of $G$. There is significant…

The motivation of this work is to construct an analog of compactified moduli of abelian varieties and toric pairs in the case of non-commutative algebraic group G. We introduce a class of "stable reductive varieties" which contain connected…

We investigate stabilizers of finite sets of rational points in Cantor space for the Higman-Thompson groups $V_{n,r}$. We prove that the pointwise stabilizer is an iterated ascending HNN extension of $V_{n,q}$ for any $q\geq 1$. We also…

A Moufang set is essentially a doubly transitive permutation group such that each point stabilizer contains a normal subgroup which is regular on the remaining vertices; these regular normal subgroups are called the root groups, and they…

We consider an arbitrary topological group $G$ definable in a structure $\mathcal M$, such that some basis for the topology of $G$ consists of sets definable in $\mathcal M$. To each such group $G$ we associate a compact $G$-space of…
