A translation of Emmy Noether's paper "Der Endlichkeitsatz der Invarianten endlicher Gruppen" (Mathematische Annalen, vol. 77, 1920, pages 89--92). In Noether's words, the paper gives "an entirely elementary finiteness proof---using only…
The problem of describing the group of units $\mathcal{U}(\mathbb{Z} G)$ of the integral group ring $\mathbb{Z} G$ of a finite group $G$ has attracted a lot of attention and providing presentations for such groups is a fundamental problem.…
We study a characteristic subgroup of finitely generated groups, consisting of elements with uniform upper bound for word-lengths. For a group $G$, we denote this subgroup by $G_{bound}$. We give sufficient criteria for triviality and…
In the theory of unitary group representations, a group is called type I if all factor representations are of type I, and by a celebrated theorem of James Glimm [Gli61b], the type I groups are precisely those groups for which the…
Let $\mathcal{G}$ be a countably infinite group of unitary operators on a complex separable Hilbert space $H$. Let $X = \{x_{1},...,x_{r}\}$ and $Y = \{y_{1},...,y_{s}\}$ be finite subsets of $H$, $r < s$, $V_{0} = \bar{span}…
We discuss a generalization of Clifford algebras known as generalized Clifford algebras (in particular, ternary Clifford algebras). In these objects, we have a fixed higher-degree form (in particular, a ternary form) instead of a quadratic…
We give an 'arithmetic regularity lemma' for groups definable in finite fields, analogous to Tao's 'algebraic regularity lemma' for graphs definable in finite fields. More specifically, we show that, for any $M>0$, any finite field…
We prove that if $G$ is a finite simple group which is the unit group of a ring, then $G$ is isomorphic to either (a) a cyclic group of order 2; (b) a cyclic group of prime order $2^k -1$ for some $k$; or (c) a projective special linear…
We apply, in the context of semigroups, the main theorem from~\cite{higjac} that an elementary class $\mathcal{C}$ of algebras which is closed under the taking of direct products and homomorphic images is defined by systems of equations. We…
Clifford theory relates the representation theory of finite groups to those of a fixed normal subgroup by means of induction and restriction, which is an adjoint pair of functors. We generalize this result to the situation of a…
A group element is called a generalized torsion if a finite product of its conjugates is equal to the identity. We prove that in a nilpotent or FC-group, the generalized torsion elements are all torsion elements. Moreover, we compute the…
Let $G$ be a finite group, $L_1(G)$ be its poset of cyclic subgroups and consider the quantity $\alpha(G)=\frac{|L_1(G)|}{|G|}$. The aim of this paper is to study the class $\cal{C}$ of finite nilpotent groups having…
We obtain a complete classification of graph products of finite abelian groups whose Cayley graphs with respect to the standard presentations are planar.
In this paper, for a given finitely generated algebra (an algebraic structure with arbitrary operations and no predicates) A we study finitely generated limit algebras of A, approaching them via model theory and algebraic geometry. Along…
Uninorms play a prominent role both in the theory and the applications of Aggregations and Fuzzy Logic. In this paper the class of group-like uninorms is introduced and characterized. First, two variants of a general construction -- called…
We classify finite groups $G$, such that the group algebra, $\mathbb{Q}G$ (over the field of rational numbers $\mathbb{Q}$), is the direct product of the group algebra $\mathbb{Q}[G/N]$ of a proper factor group $G/N$, and some division…
Let $F$ be a finite field of characteristic $p$. The structures of the unit groups of group algebras over $F$ of the three groups $D_{24}$, $S_4$ and $SL(2, \mathbb{Z}_3)$ of order $24$ are completely described in \cite{K4, SM, SM1, FM,…
We proceed the research of generalized quasigroup derivatives started in early papers of the last co-author ([20, p. 212], [13]). For any quasigroup there exist 648 generalized derivatives. Here we study the problem about existence of units…
Based on the general strategy described by Borel and Serre and the Voronoi algorithm for computing unit groups of orders we present an algorithm for finding presentations of $S$-unit groups of orders. The algorithm is then used for some…
In this paper we formalize some foundation concepts and theorems of group theory in a variant of type theory called the Calculus of Constructions with Definitions. In this theory we introduce definition of a group, which is both general and…
