A simple-triangle graph (also known as a PI graph) is the intersection graph of a family of triangles defined by a point on a horizontal line and an interval on another horizontal line. The recognition problem for simple-triangle graphs was…
Let $\Gamma$ be an undirected and simple graph. A set $ S $ of vertices in $\Gamma$ is called a {cyclic vertex cutset} of $\Gamma$ if $\Gamma - S$ is disconnected and has at least two components each containing a cycle. If $\Gamma$ has a…
In this paper we investigate families of connected graphs which do not contain an odd cycle in their complement. Specifically, we consider graphs formed by two complete graphs connected in a particular way. We determine which of these…
We introduce graphical complexes of groups, which can be thought of as a generalisation of Coxeter systems with 1-dimensional nerves. We show that these complexes are strictly developable, and we equip the resulting Basic Construction with…
Let $G$ be a finite group. We let $\f{m}(G)$ and $\sig(G)$ denote the number of maximal subgroups of $G$ and the least positive integer $n$ such that $G$ is written as the union of $n$ proper subgroups, respectively. In this paper we…
Let G be a finitely presented group, and let p be a prime. Then G is 'large' (respectively, 'p-large') if some normal subgroup with finite index (respectively, index a power of p) admits a non-abelian free quotient. This paper provides a…
Generalising a previous result, we determine all non-abelian finite simple groups whose order has largest prime divisor not exceeding $10^4$. The computer code for this and similar calculations is made available.
We characterize the finite groups of minimal order that admit an irreducible complex character of degree $p$ or $p^2$, where $p$ is a prime.
We consider a finite group $G$ with a normal subgroup $N$ so that all elements of $G \setminus N$ have prime power order. We prove that if there is a prime $p$ so that all the elements in $G \setminus N$ have $p$-power order, then either…
We show that for every positive integer $n$ there exists a simple group that is of type $\mathrm{F}_{n-1}$ but not of type $\mathrm{F}_n$. For $n\ge 3$ these groups are the first known examples of this kind. They also provide infinitely…
Let G be a finite group with identity e and H \neq \{e\} be a subgroup of G. The generalized non-coprime graph GAmma_{G,H} of G with respect to H is the simple undirected graph with G - \{e \}\) as the vertex set and two distinct vertices a…
In finite group theory, studying the prime graph of a group has been an important topic for almost the past half-century. Recently, prime graphs of solvable groups have been characterized in graph theoretical terms only. This now allows the…
Let $p$ be a prime and let $\mathbb{C}$ be the complex field. We explicitly classify the finite solvable irreducible monomial subgroups of $\mathrm{GL}(p,\mathbb{C})$ up to conjugacy. That is, we give a complete and irredundant list of…
We show that there are Turing complete computably enumerable sets of arbitrarily low non-trivial initial segment prefix-free complexity. In particular, given any computably enumerable set $A$ with non-trivial prefix-free initial segment…
In this paper we classify the finite groups satisfying the following property $P_4$: their orders of representatives are set-wise relatively prime for any 4 distinct non-central conjugacy classes.
In many simple integral domains, such as $\mathbb{Z}$ or $\mathbb{Z}[i]$, there is a straightforward procedure to determine if an element is prime by simply reducing to a direct check of finitely many potential divisors. Despite the fact…
Let $K$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $0$ and $G$ a finite abelian group. For a $G$-graded $K$-algebra $A$, we define the primeness property for graded central polynomials: for any graded polynomials $f$ and $g$ in…
Let $p$ be a prime. In this paper, we compute complexities of some simple modules of symmetric groups labelled by two-part partitions. Most of the simple modules considered here are contained in the $p$-blocks with non-abelian defect…
Let G be a group of permutations of a denumerable set E. The profile of G is the function phi which counts, for each n, the number phi(n) of orbits of G acting on the n-subsets of E. Counting functions arising this way, and their associated…
For a finite group $G$, the proper power graph $\mathscr{P}^*(G)$ of $G$ is the graph whose vertices are non-trivial elements of $G$ and two vertices $u$ and $v$ are adjacent if and only if $u \neq v$ and $u^m=v$ or $v^m=u$ for some…
