In this paper, we discuss about finite groups in which, CGH = NGH, for every abelian subgroup H of non prime power order. Also, we classify all such nilpotent and minimal non nilpotent groups.

We study infinite groups interpretable in three families of valued fields: $V$-minimal, power bounded $T$-convex, and $p$-adically closed fields. We show that every such group $G$ has unbounded exponent and that if $G$ is dp-minimal then it…

The non-empty finite subsets of a multiplicatively written monoid form a monoid under setwise multiplication. The same holds for finite subsets containing the identity element. Partly due to their unusual arithmetic properties, these…

In this paper we characterize groups according to the number of end vertices in the associated coprime graphs. An upper bound on the order of the group that depends on the number of end vertices is obtained. We also prove that $2-$groups…

We show that in the extended modular group PGL(2,Z) there are exactly seven finite subgroups up to conjugacy; three subgroups of size 2, one subgroup each of size 3, 4, and 6, and the trivial subgroup of size 1.

Let $a\geq 1$ and $n>1$ be odd integers. For a given prime $p$, we prove under certain conditions that the class groups of imaginary quadratic fields $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{a^2-4p^n})$ have a subgroup isomorphic to $\mathbb{Z}/n\mathbb{Z}$. We…

An s-cap n-flat is given by a set of s points, no three of which are on a common line, in an n-dimensional affine space over the field of three elements. The cap set problem in dimension n is: what is the maximum s such that there is an…

Given a collection $\mathcal{A}$ of subsets of an $n$ element set, let $\text{op}(\mathcal{A})$ denote the number of distinct pairs $A,B \in \mathcal{A}$ for which $|A \cap B|$ is odd. For $s \in \{1,2\}$, we prove $\text{op}(\mathcal{A})…

We investigate finite effect algebras and their classification. We show that an effect algebra with $n$ elements has at least $n-2$ and at most $(n-1)(n-2)/2$ nontrivial defined sums. We characterize finite effect algebras with these…

When investigating the distribution of the Euler totient function, one encounters sets of primes P where if p is in P then r is in P for all r|(p-1). While it is easy to construct finite sets of such primes, the only infinite set known is…

A binary operation on any set induces a binary operation on its subsets. We explore families of subsets of a group that become a group under the induced operation and refer to such families as power groups of the given group. Our results…

Let R be a finite unitary ring whose group of units is not solvable but all groups of units of all its proper subrings are solvable. In this paper we classify these rings and show that all finite rings of order $p^n$ for $n < 5$ and some of…

We determine all isomorphism classes of hyperfields of a given finite order which can be obtained as quotients of finite fields of sufficiently large order. Using this result, we determine which hyperfields of order at most 4 are quotients…

Capsets are subsets of $\mathbb{F}_3^n$ with no three points on a line and a capset is complete if it is not a subset of a larger capset. We study some new constructions of capsets via algebraic equations over extensions of $\mathbb{F}_3$.…

We classify, up to conjugacy, the finite subgroups of PGL(2,K) of order prime to char(K).

We prove that every finite group $G$ can be realized as the automorphism group of a poset with $4|G|$ points. We also provide bounds for the minimum number of points of a poset with cyclic automorphism group of a given prime power order.

We determine the structure of the semisimple group algebra of certain groups over the rationals and over those finite fields where the Wedderburn decompositions have the least number of simple components. We apply our work to obtain similar…

We show that a large multiplicative subgroup of a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ cannot be decomposed into $A+A$ or $A+B+C$ nontrivially. We also find new families of multiplicative subgroups that cannot be decomposed as the sum of two sets…

Every subfield $\kk(\phi)$ of the field of rational functions $\kk(x_1,...,x_n)$ is contained in a unique maximal subfield of the form $\kk(\psi)$. The element $\psi$ is called generative for the element $\phi$. A subfield of…

The strong symmetric genus of a finite group is the minimum genus of a compact Riemann surface on which the group acts as a group of automorphisms preserving orientation. A characterization of the infinite number of groups with strong…
