We let the central Fourier algebra, ZA(G), be the subalgebra of functions u in the Fourier algebra A(G) of a compact group, for which u(xyx^{-1})=u(y) for all x,y in G. We show that this algebra admits bounded point derivations whenever G…

The classification of the finite primitive permutation groups of rank $3$ was completed in the 1980s and this landmark achievement has found a wide range of applications. In the general transitive setting, a classical result of Higman shows…

We construct, for the first time, various types of specific non-special finite $p$-groups having abelian automorphism group. More specifically, we construct groups $G$ with abelian automorphism group such that $\gamma_2(G) < \mathrm{Z}(G) <…

In this paper, we study distortion in the group $\mathcal A$ of Affine Interval Exchange Transformations (AIET). We prove that any distorted element $f$ of $\mathcal A$, has an iterate $f^ k$ that is conjugate by an element of $\mathcal A$…

We prove a topological reconstruction result for the category of cellular $A$-equivariant motivic spectra over the complex numbers where $A$ is a finite abelian group: after completion at an arbitrary prime, this is equivalent to the…

We study a commutation pattern in which two affine families commute completely across the two families while each family retains internal noncommutativity. For one-dimensional affine groups over finite commutative rings, we prove a…

A set of quasi-uniform random variables $X_1,...,X_n$ may be generated from a finite group $G$ and $n$ of its subgroups, with the corresponding entropic vector depending on the subgroup structure of $G$. It is known that the set of entropic…

We classify all infinite primitive permutation groups possessing a finite point stabilizer, thus extending the seminal Aschbacher-O'Nan-Scott Theorem to all primitive permutation groups with finite point stabilizers.

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…

In this paper, we characterize finite group $G$ with unique proper non-abelian element centralizer. This improves \cite[Theorem 1.1]{nab}. Among other results, we have proved that if $C(a)$ is the proper non-abelian element centralizer of…

We study polynomial functors of degree 2, called quadratic, with values in the category of abelian groups $Ab$, and whose source category is an arbitrary category $\C$ with null object such that all objects are colimits of copies of a…

Let $G$ be a finite abelian group. For any positive integers $d$ and $m$, let $\varphi_G(d)$ be the number of elements in $G$ of order $d$ and $\mathsf M(G,m)$ be the set of all zero-sum sequences of length $m$. In this paper, for any…

The problem of computing the optimum of a function on a finite set is an important problem in mathematics and computer science. Many combinatorial problems such as MAX-SAT and MAXCUT can be recognized as optimization problems on the…

Let $p$ be a prime number, $G$ a finite group, $P$ a $p$-subgroup of $G$ and $k$ an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p$. We study the relationship between the category $\Ff_P(G)$ and the behavior of $p$-permutation $kG$-modules…

Let $p$ be a prime and let $G$ be a finite $p$-group. We show that the isomorphism type of the maximal abelian direct factor of $G$, as well as the isomorphism type of the group algebra over $\mathbb F_p$ of the non-abelian remaining direct…

We define an abelian group homomorphism $\mathscr{F}$, which we call the Frobenius transform, from the ring of symmetric functions to the ring of the symmetric power series. The matrix entries of $\mathscr{F}$ in the Schur basis are the…

We show that the biflatness - in the sense of A. Ya. Helemskii - of the Fourier algebra $A(G)$ of a locally compact group $G$ forces $G$ to either have an abelian subgroup of finite index or to be non-amenable without containing $F_2$, the…

We consider the group $\mathfrak{X}(G)$ obtained from $G\ast G$ by forcing each element $g$ in the first free factor to commute with the copy of $g$ in the second free factor. Deceptively complicated finitely presented groups arise from…

A proportionally modular affine semigroup is the set of nonnegative integer solutions of a modular Diophantine inequality $f_1x_1+\cdots +f_nx_n \mod b \le g_1x_1+\cdots +g_nx_n$ where $g_1,\dots,g_n,$ $f_1,\ldots ,f_n\in \mathbb{Z}$ and…

It is well known that, in general, the set of commutators of a group $G$ may not be a subgroup. Guralnick showed that if $G$ is a finite $p$-group with $p\ge 5$ such that $G'$ is abelian and $3$-generator, then all the elements of the…
