We classify irreducible SL(2,K)-modules of low Morley rank (at most 4.rk(K)) as a first step towards a more general conjecture.

Given two subsets $X,Y$ of a finite group $G$, we write $\Pr(X,Y)$ for the probability that random elements $x \in X$ and $y \in Y$ commute. If $X,Y$ are subgroups, we denote by $\Pr^*(X,Y)$ the maximum real number $\epsilon$ with the…

We show that every finite group $G$ of size at least $3$ has a nilpotent subgroup of class at most $2$ and size at least $|G|^{1/32\log\log|G|}$. This answers a question of Pyber, and is essentially best possible.

We give a new computer-assisted proof of the classification of maximal subgroups of the simple group ${}^2E_6(2)$ and its extensions by any subgroup of the outer automorphism group $S_3$. This is not a new result, but no earlier proof…

A group $G$ is integrable if it is isomorphic to the derived subgroup of a group $H$; that is, if $H'\simeq G$, and in this case $H$ is an integral of $G$. If $G$ is a subgroup of $U$, we say that $G$ is integrable within $U$ if $G=H'$ for…

We study $G$-vertex-primitive and $(G,s)$-arc-transitive digraphs for almost simple groups $G$ with socle $\mathrm{PSL}_n(q)$. It turns out that $s\leqslant2$ for such digraphs, which provides the first step in determining an upper bound on…

We characterize the maximal discrete subgroups of $SO^+(2,n+2)$, which contain the discriminant kernel of an even lattice, which contains two hyperbolic planes over $\mathbb{Z}$. They coincide with the normalizers in $SO^+(2,n+2)$ and are…

It is proved that any infinite Abelian topological group of prime exponent has an infinite maximally almost periodic subgroup.

Let $S,T$ be two numerical semigroups. We study when $S$ is one half of $T$, with $T$ almost symmetric. If we assume that the type of $T$, $t(T)$, is odd, then for any $S$ there exist infinitely many such $T$ and we prove that $1 \leq t(T)…

In this work we study and provide a full description, up to a finite index subgroup, of the dynamics of solvable complex Kleinian subgroups of PSL(3,C). These groups havesimpledynamics, contrary to strongly irre-ducible groups. Because of…

A multiplicative 3-matching in a group $G$ is a triple of sets $\{a_i\}, \{b_i\}, \{c_i\} \subset G$ such that $a_ib_jc_k = 1$ if and only if $i=j=k$. Here we record the fact that $\text{PSL}(2,p)$ has no multiplicative 3-matching of size…

We determine the structure of the finite non-solvable groups of order divisible by $3$ all whose maximal subgroups of order divisible by $3$ are supersolvable. Precisely, we demonstrate that if $G$ is a finite non-solvable group satisfying…

We show that, in contrast to the integers setting, almost all even order abelian groups $G$ have exponentially fewer maximal sum-free sets than $2^{\mu(G)/2}$, where $\mu(G)$ denotes the size of a largest sum-free set in $G$. This confirms…

Suppose $C(G)$ denotes the set of all cyclic subgroups of a finite group $G$, and $\mathcal{O}_{2}(G)$ denotes the number of elements of order $2$ in $G$. In [Marius T., Finite groups with a certain number of cyclic subgroups. The American…

Let $k$ be an arbitrary field. We classify the maximal reductive subgroups of maximal rank in any classical simple algebraic $k$-group in terms of combinatorial data associated to their indices. This result complements [S, 2022], which does…

Using cohomological methods, we prove the existence of a subgroup isomorphic to SL(2,q), q = -1 (mod 4), in the permutation module for PSL(2,q) in characteristic 2 that arises from the action on the projective line. A similar problem for q…

We study the large scale geometry of the upper triangular subgroup of PSL(2,Z[1/n]), which arises naturally in a geometric context. We prove a quasi-isometry classification theorem and show that these groups are quasi-isometrically rigid…

We show that for every prime $r$ all $r$-subgroups in the normalized units of the integral group ring of $\operatorname{PSL}(2,p^3)$ are isomorphic to subgroups of $\operatorname{PSL}(2,p^3)$. This answers a question of M. Hertweck, C.R.…

We prove that, for any prime $p$, there are precisely $2p^4-p^3-p^2-3p-1$ medial quasigroups of order $p^2$, up to isomorphism.

We prove Cherlin's conjecture, concerning binary primitive permutation groups, for those groups with socle isomorphic to $\mathrm{PSL}_2(q)$, ${^2\mathrm{B}_2}(q)$, ${^2\mathrm{G}_2}(q)$ or $\mathrm{PSU}_3(q)$. Our method uses the notion of…
