This paper defines and develops cycle indices for the finite classical groups. These tools are then applied to study properties of a random matrix chosen uniformly from one of these groups. Properties studied by this technique will include…
The asymptotic study of the conjugacy classes of a random element of the finite affine group leads one to define a probability measure on the set of all partitions of all positive integers. Four different probabilistic understandings of…
For a natural extension of the circular unitary ensemble of order n, we study as n tends to infinity, the asymptotic behavior of the sequence of orthogonal polynomials with respect to the spectral measure. The last term of this sequence is…
We introduce and study the concept of cyclicity degree of a finite group $G$. This quantity measures the probability of a random subgroup of $G$ to be cyclic. Explicit formulas are obtained for some particular classes of finite groups. An…
Using generating functions, we enumerate regular semisimple conjugacy classes in the finite classical groups. For the general linear, unitary, and symplectic groups this gives a different approach to known results; for the special…
We describe the rings of invariants for the finite orthogonal groups of plus type in odd characteristic acting on the defining representations. We also describe the invariants of the corresponding Sylow subgroups in the defining…
In this paper, we introduce a new function related to the sum of element orders of finite groups. It is used to give some criteria for a finite group to be cyclic, abelian, nilpotent, supersolvable and solvable, respectively.
We provide explicit identity bases for finite cyclic semigroups.
We construct supercharacter theories of finite unipotent groups in the orthogonal, symplectic and unitary types. Our method utilizes group actions in a manner analogous to that of Diaconis and Isaacs in their construction of supercharacters…
We derive several identities that feature irreducible characters of the general linear, the symplectic, the orthogonal, and the special orthogonal groups. All the identities feature characters that are indexed by shapes that are "nearly"…
We define and study odd and even analogues of the major index statistics for the classical Weyl groups. More precisely, we show that the generating functions of these statistics, twisted by the one-dimensional characters of the…
We characterize when a generalized Baumslag-Solitar group is linear, and extend the result to the fundamental groups of a graph of groups with infinite virtually cyclic vertex and edge groups.
In the study of walks with small steps confined to multidimensional orthants, a certain group of transformations plays a central role. In particular, several techniques to potentially compute the generating function, including the orbit sum…
In this expository article we collect the integer sequences that count several different types of matrices over finite fields and provide references to the Online Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences (OEIS). Section 1 contains the sequences,…
We survey the existing parts of a classification of finite groups generated by orthogonal transformations in a finite-dimensional Euclidean space whose fixed point subspace has codimension one or two and extend it to a complete…
A theory of cyclic elements in semisimple Lie algebras is developed. It is applied to an explicit construction of regular elements in Weyl groups.
We construct an algebraic homology functor for Artin stacks of finite type over a field, and we develop intersection-theoretic properties.
Consider a one-ended word-hyperbolic group. If it is the fundamental group of a graph of free groups with cyclic edge groups then either it is the fundamental group of a surface or it contains a finitely generated one-ended subgroup of…
In this paper cycles for asymptotic solutions for Heckman-Opdam hypergeometric system of type $A_n$ are described. Cycles are enumerated by elements of symmetric group. Leading asymptotic and leading coefficient are calculated. Value of…
We study some spectral properties of random walks on infinite countable amenable groups with an emphasis on locally finite groups, e.g. the infinite symmetric group. On locally finite groups, the random walks under consideration are driven…
