For $\beta\in{\mathbb Z}$, let $G(\beta)=\langle A,B\,|\, A^{[A,B]}=A,\, B^{[B,A]}=B^\beta\rangle$ be the infinite Macdonald group, and set $C=[A,B]$. Then $G(\beta)$ is a nilpotent polycyclic group of the form $\langle…

We show that if $A$ and $B$ are finite sets of real numbers, then the number of triples $(a,b,c)\in A\times B\times (A\cup B)$ with $a+b=2c$ is at most $(0.15+o(1))(|A|+|B|)^2$ as $|A|+|B|\to\infty$. As a corollary, if $A$ is antisymmetric…

In this paper, we introduce the class of $(\beta,\gamma)$-Chebyshev functions and corresponding points, which can be seen as a family of {\it generalized} Chebyshev polynomials and points. For the $(\beta,\gamma)$-Chebyshev functions, we…

We describe the computation of the mod-2 cohomology rings of all 2328 groups of order 128. One consequence is that all groups of order less than 256 satisfy the strong form of Benson's Regularity Conjecture.

Let $B_{l,m}(n)$ denote the number of $(l,m)$-regular bipartitions of $n$. Recently, many authors proved several infinite families of congruences modulo $3$, $5$ and $11$ for $B_{l,m}(n)$. In this paper, using theta function identities to…

We extend the class of abelian groups for which a conjecture of Asai and Yoshida on the number of crossed homomorphisms holds. We also prove a general result which connects certain problems concerning divisibility in groups to the…

The class of connected LOG (Labelled Oriented Graph) groups coincides with the class of fundamental groups of complements of closed, orientable 2-manifolds embedded in S^4, and so contains all knot groups. We investigate when Campbell and…

We classify quadratic SL(2,K)- and sl(2,K)-modules by crude computation, generalizing in the first case a Theorem proved independently by F.-G. Timmesfeld and S. Smith. The paper is the first of a series dealing with linearization results…

Suppose that $M$ is a finitely-generated graded module of codimension $c\geq 3$ over a polynomial ring and that the regularity of $M$ is at most $2a-2$ where $a\geq 2$ is the minimal degree of a first syzygy of $M$. Then we show that the…

Automorphism groups of $2$-groups of coclass at most $3$ are investigated.

This paper develops some general results about actions of finite groups on (infinite) abelian groups in the finite Morley rank category. They are linked to a range of problems on groups of finite Morley rank discussed in [16]. Crucially,…

The objective of this paper is, in the main, twofold: Firstly, to develop an algebraic setting for dealing with Bell polynomials and related extensions. Secondly, based on the author's previous work on multivariate Stirling polynomials…

We investigate (2,1):1 structures, which consist of a countable set $A$ together with a function $f: A \to A$ such that for every element $x$ in $A$, $f$ maps either exactly one element or exactly two elements of $A$ to $x$. These…

We prove that a type II$_1$ factor $M$ can have at most one Cartan subalgebra $A$ satisfying a combination of rigidity and compact approximation properties. We use this result to show that within the class $\Cal H \Cal T$ of factors $M$…

We classify 3-braids up to (2,2)-move equivalence and in particular we show how to adjust the Harikae-Nakanishi-Uchida conjecture so it holds for closed 3-braids. As important steps to classify 3-braids up to (2,2)-move equivalence we prove…

We define and prove isomorphisms between three combinatorial classes involving labeled trees. We also give an alternative proof by means of generating functions.

We provide a clarification of the classification of two-dimensional algebras over an arbitrary base field. Using this clarification, we determine the number of non-isomorphic two-dimensional algebras over a finite field.

In this note, we give a new formula for the number of cyclic subgroups of a finite abelian group. This is based on applying the Burnside's lemma to a certain group action. Also, it generalizes the well-known Menon's identity.

In this project, we will study the Brauer group that was first defined by R. Brauer. The elements of the Brauer group are the equivalence classes of finite dimensional central simple algebra. Therefore understanding the structure of the…

We study the relationship between Bell states, finite groups and complete sets of bases. We show how to obtain a set of N+1 bases in which Bell states are invariant. They generalize the X, Y and Z qubit bases and are associated to groups of…
