We classify two-dimensional right-angled Coxeter groups that are quasiisometric to a right-angled Artin group defined by a tree, and show that when this is true the right-angled Coxeter group actually contains a visible finite index…

There is a procedure, due to Dani and Levcovitz, for taking a finite simplicial graph (\Gamma) and a subgraph (\Lambda) of its complement, checking some conditions, and, if satisfied, producing a graph (\Delta) such that the right-angled…

Following previous work on congruence subgroups and crystallographic braid groups, we study the lower central series of congruence braid groups related to the braid group $B_3$, showing in particular that corresponding quotients are almost…

We generalize the definition of pseudo monomial characters and $M$-groups to the Brauer character and Isaacs' $\pi$-partial character settings. We prove an analogs of Isaacs's generalization of Taketa's theorem in those settings. We…

Let $G$ be a finite group. Suppose $N$ is a normal subgroup of $G$. Recall that Gallagher's theorem states that if $\chi \in {\rm Irr} (G)$ satisfies $\chi_N$ is irreducible, then $\chi \beta$ is irreducible and distinct for all $\beta \in…

We prove a linearization theorem for pre-rings of endogenies acting on a definable abelian group of finite dimension. Observe that no assumptions on the connectivity of A are made. We also prove a similar result when one of the two…

Building on work of Wilson, we show that if $G$ is a finitely generated residually soluble group whose growth function $\gamma$ satisfies $(\log \gamma(n))/ n^{1/4} \to 0$ as $n \to \infty$ then $G$ is virtually nilpotent. This shows that…

A group is surjunctive if every injective cellular automaton on it is also surjective. Gottschalk famously conjectured that all groups are surjunctive. This remains a central open problem in symbolic dynamics and descriptive set theory.…

In this paper we give an algorithm to determine all finite matrix groups over a number field. Our algorithm is based on the representation theory of finite groups.

Let $G$ be a connected algebraic semisimple real Lie group with finite center and no compact factors, and let $\Gamma$ be a Zariski dense discrete subgroup of $G$. We show that $\Gamma$ contains free, finitely generated subsemigroups whose…

We present a class of abelian groups that exhibit a high degree of freeness while possessing no non-trivial homomorphisms to a canonical free object. Unlike prior investigations, which primarily focused on torsion-free groups, our work…

The palindromic automorphism group is a subgroup of the automorphism group $Aut(F_3).$ We establish a necessary and sufficient condition for a matrix in $GL_n(\mathbb{Z})$ representing a palindromic automorphism of $F_n.$ We prove that the…

We consider the cyclically presented groups defined by cyclic presentations with $2m$ generators $x_i$ whose relators are the $2m$ positive length three relators $x_ix_{i+1}x_{i+m-1}$. We show that they are hyperbolic if and only if $m\in…

We strengthen the results of Boltje and Yilmaz regarding the Galois descent of equivalences of blocks of $p$-nilpotent groups and a result of Kessar and Linckelmann regarding Galois descent of splendid Rickard equivalences for blocks with…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $k$ a field of prime characteristic $p$. We give a complete classification of endotrivial complexes, i.e. determine the Picard group $\mathcal{E}_k(G)$ of the tensor-triangulated category…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $k$ be a field of characteristic $p > 0$. In prior work, we studied endotrivial complexes, the invertible objects of the bounded homotopy category $K^b({}_{kG}\mathbf{triv})$ of $p$-permutation $kG$-modules.…

Nicolas Monod showed that the evaluation map $H^*_m(G\curvearrowright G/P)\longrightarrow H^*_m(G)$ between the measurable cohomology of the action of a connected semisimple Lie group $G$ on its Furstenberg boundary $G/P$ and the measurable…

We study faithful realisations of Coxeter groups over fusion rings and study Vinberg systems associated to them. We show that they induce embeddings of hyperplane complements, which provide geometrical realisations of certain types of…

In this work, we give a description of the structure of the normal subgroups of a Sylow $p$-subgroup $W_n$ of $\mathrm{Sym}(p^n)$, showing that they contain a term from the lower central series with bounded index. To this end, we explicitly…

We determine the cohomological invariants and the Witt invariants of the alternating group $A_n$.
