In the late 19th century, Klein inaugurated a program for describing the finite subgroups of $PGL_2(k)$ by treating the case in which the field $k$ is the complex numbers. Gierster and Moore extended Klein's arguments to deal with finite…

In the first chapters, this paper contains a survey on the theory of ordinary characters of finite reductive groups with non-connected centre. The last chapters are devoted to the proof of Lusztig's conjecture on characteristic functions of…

In the first part of this note, we introduce Tietze transformations for $L$-presentations. These transformations enable us to generalize Tietze's theorem for finitely presented groups to invariantly finitely $L$-presented groups. Moreover,…

A classification of maximal subgroups of odd index in finite simple groups was given by Liebeck and Saxl and, independently, Kantor in 1980s. In the cases of alternating groups or classical groups of Lie type over fields of odd…

We study a class of two-generator two-relator groups, denoted $J_n(m,k)$, that arise in the study of relative asphericity as groups satisfying a transitional curvature condition. Particular instances of these groups occur in the literature…

These notes aim to give a gentle account to one approach to the theory of finite sets without making use of the natural numbers. They were written to be used as the basis for a student seminar. There are no real prerequisites except for a…

In this note some properties of the sum of element orders of a finite abelian group are studied.

These informal notes are closely based on a series of eight lectures given by J.-P. Serre at the University of Oregon in October 1998. Professor Serre gave two talks per week for four weeks. The first talk each week was concerned with…

Arithmetical properties of a finite group are properties of the group which are defined by its arithmetical parameters such as the order of the group, the element orders and so on. In this paper, we discuss a number of results on…

It is shown that two formations of finite groups, one was introduced by V.S. Monakhov and V.N. Kniahina and another one was introduced by R. Brandl, are coincides.

T.C. Burness and S.D. Scott \cite{3} classified finite groups $G$ such that the number of prime order subgroups of $G$ is greater than $|G|/2-1$. In this note, we study finite groups $G$ whose subgroup graph contains a vertex of degree…

Notes used for a course held in 2016 in the School of Advances in Group Theory and Applications, for some lectures given in 2018 for the students of the Master in Mathematics of the Vrije Universiteit Brussels, a course for master and Ph.D.…

This article contains a basic introduction to the local study of finite groups, including a brief perspective on the theory of fusion systems and $p$-local finite groups. -- Este art\'iculo contiene una introducci\'on b\'asica al estudio…

Here are reproduced slightly edited notes of my lectures on the classification of discrete groups generated by complex reflections of Hermitian affine spaces delivered in October of 1980 at the University of Utrecht.

The author is mainly interest in the Gr\"{o}bner-Shirshov bases of finite Coxeter groups. It is known that the finite Coxeter groups are classified in terms of Coxeter-Dynkin diagrams. Under the fixed order, it is worth mention that the…

The aim of this note is to give an easy example of a finitely presented group that cannot act without a fix point on a CAT(0) space of finite dimension. Such an example has been recently constructed by Arjantseva et al., using other…

This is the second of a Series of three papers, the first one published in Geom Dedicata 167 p. 91-121 (2013), proving that all finitely presented groups are QSF.

We extend the notions of "$R_\infty$-property" and "full (extended) Reidemeister spectrum" to finite groups in a meaningful way. We provide examples of finite groups admitting these properties, if they exist, by looking at groups of small…

We construct the first explicit finite presentations for a family of K\"ahler groups with arbitrary finiteness properties, answering a question of Suciu.

We construct examples of finitely presented simple groups whose Dehn functions are at least exponential. To the best of our knowledge, these are the first such examples known. Our examples arise from R\"over-Nekrashevych groups, using…
