In 2014, Wang and Cai established the following harmonic congruence for any odd prime $p$ and positive integer $r$, \begin{equation*} Z(p^{r})\equiv-2p^{r-1}B_{p-3} ~(\bmod ~ p^{r}), \end{equation*} where $…

The study of near-factorizations of finite groups dates back to the 1950s. Recently, this topic has attracted renewed attention, and the concept has been extended to $\lambda$-fold near-factorizations, in which each non-identity group…

The aim of this paper is to determine the algebraic structure of multidimensional cyclic codes over a finite chain ring $\mathfrak{R}$. An algorithm to find the generator polynomials of $n$ dimensional ($n$D) cyclic codes of length…

Let $p$ be a prime and $G$ a subgroup of $GL_d(p)$. We define $G$ to be $p$-exceptional if it has order divisible by $p$, but all its orbits on vectors have size coprime to $p$. We obtain a classification of $p$-exceptional linear groups.…

If $K$ is a field of finite characteristic $p$, $G$ is a cyclic group of order $q=p^\alpha$, $U$ and $W$ are indecomposable $KG$-modules with $\dim U=m$ and $\dim W=n$, and $\lambda(m,n,p)$ is a standard Jordan partition of $ m n$, we…

A subset $X$ of a finite group $G$ is said to be prime-power-independent if each element in $X$ has prime power order and there is no proper subset $Y$ of $X$ with $\langle Y, \Phi(G)\rangle = \langle X, \Phi(G)\rangle$, where $\Phi(G)$ is…

Let $p$ be an odd prime, and define $$G_p(x)=\prod_{k=1}^{(p-1)/2}\left(x-e^{2\pi i k^2/p}\right).$$ In this paper we study values of $G_p(x)$ at roots of unity via Galois theory, and confirm some previous conjectures. For example, for any…

This paper is an endeavor to discuss some properties of zero-divisor graphs of the ring $\mathbb{Z}_n$, the ring of integers modulo $n$. The zero divisor graph of a commutative ring $R$, is an undirected graph whose vertices are the nonzero…

Let n be a positive odd integer and let p>n+1 be a prime. We mainly derive the following congruence: $$\sum_{0<i_1<...<i_n<p}(i_1/3)(-1)^{i_1}/(i_1...i_n)=0 (mod p).$$

We introduce a new model of a stochastic sandpile on a graph $G$ containing a sink. When unstable, a site sends one grain to each of its neighbours independently with probability $p \in (0,1]$. For $p=1$, this coincides with the standard…

In this paper, we prove several results on the structure of maximal sets $S \subseteq [N]$ such that $S$ mod $p$ is contained in a short arithmetic progression, or the union of short progressions, where $p$ ranges over a subset of primes in…

Let $n$ be a positive integer and let $C_n$ be the cycle indicator of the symmetric group $S_n$. Carlitz proved that if $p$ is a prime, and if $r$ is a non negative integer, then we have the congruence $C_{r+np}\equiv (X_1^p-X_p)^nC_r…

Let m, k be positive integers, p be an odd prime and $\pi $ be a primitive element of $\mathbb{F}_{p^m}$. In this paper, we determine the weight distribution of a family of cyclic codes $\mathcal{C}_t$ over $\mathbb{F}_p$, whose duals have…

We state a conjecture (due to M. Duflo) analogous to the Kashiwara--Vergne conjecture in the case of a characteristic $p>2$, where the role of the Campbell--Hausdorff series is played by the Jacobson element. We prove a simpler version of…

Denote by $m(G)$ the largest size of a minimal generating set of a finite group $G$. We estimate $m(G)$ in terms of $\sum_{p\in \pi(G)}d_p(G),$ where we are denoting by $d_p(G)$ the minimal number of generators of a Sylow $p$-subgroup of…

A {\em cyclic graph} is a graph with at each vertex a cyclic order of the edges incident with it specified. We characterize which real-valued functions on the collection of cubic cyclic graphs are partition functions of a real vertex model…
