We have results about the centralizer.

We formalize the concept of a centralizer-respecting homomorphism, surjective homomorphisms which are equivariant with respect to taking the centralizer of a subgroup. There is a functor from the category of centralizer-respecting…

We extend to the critical (intermediate) regularity several results concerning rigidity for centralizers and group actions on the interval.

There is a convolution product on 3-variable partial flag functions of a locally finite poset that produces a generalized M\"obius function. Under the product this generalized M\"obius function is a one sided inverse of the zeta function…

Let $\text{AGL}(1,\Bbb F_q)$ denote the affine linear group of dimension one over the finite field $\Bbb F_q$. We determine the M\"obius function of the lattice of subgroups of $\text{AGL}(1,\Bbb F_q)$.

In this paper, we study the action of finite subgroups of the mapping class group of a surface on the curve complex. We prove that if the diameter of the almost fixed point set of a finite subgroup H is big enough, then the centralizer of H…

We prove that the M\"obius function is orthogonal to polynomials over $\mathbb{F}_q[x]$ (up to a characteristic condition). We use this orthogonality property to count prime solutions to affine-linear equations of bounded complexity in…

We compute the M\"obius function for the subgroup lattice of the simple Suzuki group $Sz(q)$; this is used to enumerate normal subgroups of certain Hecke groups with quotients isomorphic to $Sz(q)$.

In this note we introduce the poset of $m$-multichains of a given poset $\mathcal{P}$. Its elements are the multichains of $\mathcal{P}$ consisting of $m$ elements, and its partial order is the componentwise partial order of $\mathcal{P}$.…

We consider the problem of fast zeta and M\"obius transforms in finite posets, particularly in lattices. It has previously been shown that for a certain family of lattices, zeta and M\"obius transforms can be computed in $O(e)$ elementary…

In this note, we give a remark on the structure of centralizers of involutions in Coxeter groups.

We classify finite groups in which the centralisers of certain non-central elements are soluble. This includes a full structural description of groups whose non-central element centralisers are all soluble, and a reduction theorem for the…

We investigate Sarnak's conjecture on the M\"obius function in the special case when the test function is the indicator of the set of integers for which a real additive function assumes a given value.

Let u be a word over the positive integers. Motivated in part by a question from representation theory, we study the centralizer set of u which is C(u) = {w | uw is Knuth-equivalent to wu}. In particular, we give various necessary…

Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be the finite field with $q$ elements and consider the $n$-dimensional $\mathbb{F}_q$-vector space $V=\mathbb{F}_q^n\,$. In this paper we define a closure operator on the subgroup lattice of the group $G =…

In important work on the parity of the partition function, Ono related values of the partition function to coefficients of a certain mock theta function modulo 2. In this paper, we use M\"obius inversion to give analogous results which…

The interval poset of a permutation is the set of intervals of a permutation, ordered with respect to inclusion. It has been introduced and studied recently in [B. Tenner, arXiv:2007.06142]. We study this poset from the perspective of the…

For a fixed odd prime $\ell$, we define a variant of the classical M\"{o}bius function on the poset of isomorphism classes of finite abelian $\ell$-groups, then we prove an analog of Hall's theorem on the vanishing of the M\"{o}bius…

This papers studies centralizers of an element, $a$, in the nucleus of a non-associative algebra with a special type of valuation. We prove that the centralizer of $a$ is a free module of finite rank over the algebra generated by $a$.

This work proposes an alternative approach to the so-called lattice of embedded subsets, which is included in the product of the subset and partition lattices of a finite set, and whose elements are pairs consisting of a subset and a…
