This is a survey of methods developed in the last few years to prove results on growth in non-commutative groups. These techniques have their roots in both additive combinatorics and group theory, as well as other fields. We discuss linear…

Many groups possess highly symmetric generating sets that are naturally endowed with an underlying combinatorial structure. Such generating sets can prove to be extremely useful both theoretically in providing new existence proofs for…

We construct, for any finite commutative ring $R$, a family of representations of the general linear group $\mathrm{GL}_n(R)$ whose intertwining properties mirror those of the principal series for $\mathrm{GL}_n$ over a finite field.

This document presents a combinatorial framework for analyzing assembly systems using generating functions. We explore the theory through concrete examples, such as linear polymers, and develop recursive equations to characterize valid…

We investigate linearity of amalgams of subgroups of algebraic groups along intersections with algebraic subgroups. In the process, we establish linearity of certain "doubles" of linear groups, and obtain new examples of finitely generated…

Let n >1 be an integer, and G a doubly transitive subgroup of the symmetric group on X={1,...,n}. In this paper we find all linear group representations rho of G on an euclidean vector space V which contains a set of equiangular vector…

An equivalence relation in the symmetric group, where is a positive integer has been considered. An algorithm for calculation of the number of the equivalence classes by this relation for arbitrary integer has been described.

We study the representations of the commutator subgroup of the braid group with n strands in the symmetric group of degree r. Motivated by some experimental results, we conjecture that for n>r, every such representation is trivial.

We give a description of non-growing subsets in linear groups, which extends the Product theorem for simple groups of Lie type. We also give an account of various related aspects of growth in linear groups.

The representation theory of the symmetric groups S_n is intimately related to combinatorics: combinatorial objects such as Young tableaux and combinatorial algorithms such as Murnaghan-Nakayama rule. In the limit as n tends to infinity,…

This paper is devoted to the proof of a structural theorem, concerning certain homomorphic images of Artin braid group on $n$ strands in finite symmetric groups. It is shown that any one of these permutation groups is an extension of the…

We study groups generated by sets of pattern avoiding permutations. In the first part of the paper we prove some general results concerning the structure of such groups. In the second part we carry out a case-by-case analysis of groups…

We provide a family of representations of GL(2n) over a p-adic field that admit a non-vanishing linear functional invariant under the symplectic group (i.e. representations that are Sp(2n)- distinguished). While our result generalizes a…

Let $V$ be a vector space over the field of order $2$. We investigate subgroups of the linear group $GL(V)$ which are generated by a conjugacy class $D$ of elements of order $3$ such that all $d$ in $D$ have $2$-dimensional commutator space…

We provide a brief overview of tensor models and group field theories, focusing on their main common features. Both frameworks arose in the context of quantum gravity research, and can be understood as higher-dimensional generalizations of…

The group algebra of the permutation group is spanned by a set of elements called projectors. The coordinates of permutations expanded in projectors are matrix elements of irreducible representations. The projectors of the permutation group…

It is shown in what way monomial group connects Abelian group Z^{n} and total linear group GL(n). It is shown that any subgroup of Abelian group Z^{n} induces subgroup of monomial group $S_{2}\wr S_n}$, which in its turn induces…

We complete the classification of the finite special linear groups $\SL_n(q)$ which are $(2,3)$-generated, i.e., which are generated by an involution and an element of order $3$. This also gives the classification of the finite simple…
