In this paper, we shall prove that an ultraproduct of non-abelian finite simple groups is either finite simple, or has no finite dimensional unitary representation other than the trivial one. Then we shall generalize this result for other…

For most classical and similitude groups, we show that each element can be written as a product of two transformations that a) preserve or almost preserve the underlying form and b) whose squares are certain scalar maps. This generalizes…

In the paper we complete the classification of Carter subgroups in finite almost simple groups. In particular, we prove that Carter subgroups of every finite almost simple group are conjugate. Togeather with previous results by author and…

This is an expository work presenting in detail the proof of the structure theorem for divisible abelian groups. A divisible abelian group is an abelian group that satisfies nD=D for all natural n. The theorem states that any divisible…

We determine all the ways in which a direct product of two finite groups can be expressed as the set-theoretical union of proper subgroups in a family of minimal cardinality.

Some results that are true in classical groups are investigated in generalized groups and are shown to be either generally true in generalized groups or true in some special types of generalized groups. Also, it is shown that a Bol groupoid…

We present a new notion of non-positively curved groups: the collection of discrete countable groups acting (AU-)acylindrically on finite products of $\delta$-hyperbolic spaces with general type factors. Inspired by the classical theory of…

We develop theorems which produce a multitude of hyperbolic triples for the finite classical groups. We apply these theorems to prove that every quasisimple group except Alt(5) and SL_2(5) is a Beauville group. In particular, we settle a…

We study unitary representations of semidirect products of a compact quantum group with a finite group. We give a classification of all irreducible unitary representations, a description of the conjugate representation of irreducible…

We prove that any element in the group generated by the Riordan involutions is the product of at most four of them. We also give a description of this subgroup as a semidirect product of a special subgroup of the commutator subgroup and the…

For each finite classical group $G$, we classify the subgroups of $G$ which act transitively on a $G$-invariant set of subspaces of the natural module, where the subspaces are either totally isotropic or nondegenerate. Our proof uses the…

In this paper we give a bound to the number of conjugacy classes of maximal subgroups of any almost simple group whose socle is a classical group of Lie type. The bound is $2n^{5.2}+n\log_2\log_2 q$, where $n$ is the dimension of the…

We study a class of quasimorphisms of the free group that can be expressed as infinite sums of Brooks quasimorphisms with some nice properties. We then review Heuer's framework of decompositions developed in arXiv:1710.03193, and put these…

We prove by using simple number-theoretic arguments formulae concerning the number of elements of a fixed order and the number of cyclic subgroups of a direct product of several finite cyclic groups. We point out that certain multiplicative…

Let $G$ be a finite non-solvable group. We prove that there exists a proper subgroup $A$ of $G$ such that $G$ is the product of three conjugates of $A$, thus replacing an earlier upper bound of $36$ with the smallest possible value. The…

We classify the factorizations of finite classical groups with nonsolvable factors, completing the classification of factorizations of finite almost simple groups.

The canonical connection on a Riemannian almost product manifold is an analogue to the Hermitian connection on an almost Hermitian manifold. In this paper we consider the canonical connection on a class of Riemannian almost product…

We prove several results on products of conjugacy classes in finite simple groups. The first result is that there always exists a uniform generating triple. This result and other ideas are used to solve a 1966 conjecture of Peter Neumann…

We introduce a generalization of the product expansion of a finite semigroup. As an application, we provide an alternative proof of the decidability of pointlike sets for pseudovarieties consisting of semigroups whose subgroups all belong…

We prove that every commutative Moufang groupoid is a semilattice of Archimedean subgroupoids.
