The present note shows that $\mathcal{Q}$-groups in [H. Heineken and F.G. Russo, Groups described by element numbers, Forum Math. 27 (2015), 1961--1977] are solvable groups (not necessarily nilpotent) for which the equation $T_G(r,s)=0$ is…

We prove that the extended Poincare group in (1+1) dimensions is non-nilpotent solvable exponential, and therefore that it belongs to type I. We determine its first and second cohomology groups in order to work out a classification of the…

We consider the class of finitely generated groups which have a normal form computable in logspace. We prove that the class of such groups is closed under finite extensions, finite index subgroups, direct products, wreath products, and also…

We study the Diophantine problem (decidability of finite systems of equations) in different classes of finitely generated solvable groups (nilpotent, polycyclic, metabelian, free solvable, etc), which satisfy some natural…

Let $A$ and $G$ be finite groups such that $A$ acts coprimely on $G$ by automorphisms, assume that $G$ has a maximal $A$-invariant subgroup $M$ that is a direct product of some isomorphic simple groups, we prove that if $G$ has a…

We show that first-order formulae are concise in acylindrically hyperbolic groups and certain extensions thereof. We study further classes of groups, including Burnside groups, icc groups, groups with the `Big Powers' condition, torus knot…

In order to find a suitable expression of an arbitrary square matrix over an arbitrary finite commutative ring, we prove that every such a matrix is always representable as a sum of a potent matrix and a nilpotent matrix of order at most…

In this paper, we prove a series of results on group embeddings in groups with a small number of generators. We show that each finitely generated group $G$ lying in a variety ${\mathcal M}$ can be embedded in a $4$-generated group $H \in…

A covering of a group is a finite set of proper subgroups whose union is the whole group. A covering is minimal if there is no covering of smaller cardinality, and it is nilpotent if all its members are nilpotent subgroups. We complete a…

We classify the finitely generated prosupersolvable groups that satisfy Schreier's formula for the number of generators of open subgroups.

We prove that if $G$ is a finite simple group, then all irreducible complex representations of $G$ by be realized over the real numbers if and only if every element of $G$ may be written as a product of two involutions in $G$. This follows…

Constructive algorithms, requiring no more than $2\times 2$ matrix manipulations, are provided for finding the entries of the positive definite factor in the polar decomposition of matrices in sixteen groups preserving a bilinear form in…

It is well known that many famous Burnside-type problems have positive solutions for PI-groups and PI-algebras. In the present article we also consider various Burnside-type problems for PI-groups and PI-representations of groups.

We prove that the p-Quillen complex of a finite solvable group with cyclic derived group is Cohen-Macaulay, if p is an odd prime. If p = 2 we prove a similar conclusion, but there is a discussion to be made.

Let $U$ be an algebraic subgroup of the group of $n\times n$ upper-triangular matrices with units on the diagonal over a finite field of large enough characteristic, and $\mathfrak{n}$ be the Lie algebra of $U$. The main tool in…

This communication records some observations made in the course of studying one-relator groups from the point of view of residual solvability. As a contribution to clas- sification efforts we single out some relator types that render the…

We give a simple matrix-based proof of congruence equations modulo a prime $p$ involving sums of binomial coefficients appearing in Pascal's triangle. These equations can be used to construct some groups of exponent $p^n$. These groups, as…

Every finite group $G$ has a normal series each of whose factors is either a solvable group or a direct product of nonabelian simple groups. The minimum number of nonsolvable factors attained on all possible such series is called the…

The show that the upper-left-corner problem and upper-right-corner problem for matrix groups with rational entries are undecidable. To reach this aim, we answer a question of Dixon from 1985 by proving the undecidability of the stabilizer…
