A countable group is residually finite if every nontrivial element can act nontrivially on a finite set. When a group fails to be residually finite, we might want to measure how drastically it fails - it could be that only finitely many…

In this paper, we introduce a new function related to the sum of element orders of finite groups. It is used to give some criteria for a finite group to be cyclic, abelian, nilpotent, supersolvable and solvable, respectively.

We consider a finite universe U (more exactly - a family U of them) and second order quantifiers Q_K, where for each U this means quantifying over a family of n(K)-place relations closed under permuting U. We define some natural orders and…

Let $A$ and $B$ be finite subsets of $\mathbb{C}$ such that $|B|=C|A|$. We show the following variant of the sum product phenomenon: If $|AB|<\alpha|A|$ and $\alpha \ll \log |A|$, then $|kA+lB|\gg |A|^k|B|^l$. This is an application of a…

In recent years there has been significant progress in the study of products of subsets of finite groups and of finite simple groups in particular. In this paper we consider which families of finite simple groups $G$ have the property that…

A new mathematical object called a skand is introduced, which turns out in general to be a non-well-founded set. Skands of finite lengths are ordinary well-founded sets, and skands of very long length (like the hyper-skand of all ordinals)…

We show that the set of all commuting probabilities in finite rings is a subset of the set of all commuting probabilities in finite nilpotent groups of class $\le2$. We believe that these two sets are equal; we prove they are equal, when…

We prove that every odd-order group is symmetric harmonious: there exists a permutation $g_0,g_1,\ldots, g_{\ell-1}$ of elements of $G$ such that the consecutive products $g_0g_1,g_1g_2,\ldots, g_{\ell-1}g_0$ also form a permutation of…

Let $ x $ be an element of a finite group $ G $ and denote the order of $ x $ by $ \mathrm{ord}(x) $. We consider a finite group $ G $ such that $ \gcd(\mathrm{ord}(x),\mathrm{ord}(y))\leqslant 2 $ for any two vanishing elements $ x $ and $…

Quantum groupoids are a joint generalization of groupoids and quantum groups. We propose a definition of a compact quantum groupoid that is based on the theory of C*-algebras and Hilbert bimodules. The essential point is that whenever one…

The action of the idempotent deformations on finite groups is discussed. This action is described in terms of the homological properties of groups. The orbits of finite simple groups are determined.

The problem of finding the number of ordered commuting tuples of elements in a finite group is equivalent to finding the size of the solution set of the system of equations determined by the commutator relations that impose commutativity…

This paper provides a bridge between two active areas of research, the spectrum (set of element orders) and the power graph of a finite group. The order sequence of a finite group $G$ is the list of orders of elements of the group, arranged…

A finite group $G$ is called $k$-factorizable if for every ordered factorization $|G|=a_1\cdots a_k$ into integers each greater than $1$ there exist subsets $A_1,\dots,A_k\subseteq G$ such that $|A_i|=a_i$ for each $i$ and $G=A_1\cdots…

The rational homology group of the order complex of non-even partitions of a finite set is calculated. A twisted version of the Goresky-MacPherson approach to similar homology calculations is proposed.

A classification of finite groups in which every 3-maximal subgroup is K-U-subnormal is given.

Infinite products, indexed by countably infinite linear orders, arise naturally in the context of fundamental groupoids. Such products are called "transfinite" if the index orders are permitted to contain a dense suborder and are called…

We consider metric ultraproducts of finite groups with respect to some classes of length functions. All sofic groups embed into these ultraproducts. We study embeddings of normed groups. We also show that in some natural situations such an…

A recurring theme in finite group theory is understanding how the structure of a finite group is determined by the arithmetic properties of group invariants. There are results in the literature determining the structure of finite groups…

In this article we aim to develop from first principles a theory of sum sets and partial sum sets, which are defined analogously to difference sets and partial difference sets. We obtain non-existence results and characterisations. In…
