Let $k$ be a field with $u$-invariant $\leq2$. Assume further that $k$ is not quadratically closed, $\mathsf{char}(k)\neq 2$ and $|k|\geq 5$. It is known that the covering number of both $\text{SL}_2(k)$ and $\text{PSL}_2(k)$ is three,…

For any conjugacy class C in G=PSL(2,q) we compute C^2 and discuss whether C contains a triple of elements whose product is 1 which generate G. Moreover, we determine which elements in G can be written as a product of two conjugate elements…

We classify pairs of conjugacy classes in almost simple algebraic groups whose product consists of finitely many classes. This leads to several interesting families of examples which are related to a generalization of the Baer--Suzuki…

For the finite groups GU(3), SU(3), GL(3), SL(3) over a finite field we solve the class product problem, i.e., we give a complete list of $m$-tuples of conjugacy classes whose product does not contain the identity matrix.

We summarize several results about non-simplicity, solvability and normal structure of finite groups related to the number of conjugacy classes appearing in the product or the power of conjugacy classes. We also collect some problems that…

We study conjugacy limits of certain of subgroups inside $\SL(2,\R)\ltimes\R^2$. These subgroups have a common feature that any two in the same category are conjugates of each other.

We obtain a complete description of collections of n conjugacy classes in SU(2) with the property that the multiplication map from the product of these n conjugacy classes to SU(2) is surjective. The basic instrument is a characterization…

In this note, we classify the conjugacy classes of $\widetilde{\mathrm{SL}}_2(\mathbb{R})$, the universal covering group of $\mathrm{PSL}_2(\mathbb{R})$. For any non-central element $\alpha \in \widetilde{\mathrm{SL}}_2(\mathbb{R})$, we…

Let GL(n,q) be the group of nxn invertible matrices over a field with q elements, and SL(n,q) be the group of nxn matrices with determinant 1 over a field with q elements. We prove that the product of any two non-central conjugacy classes…

We prove several results on products of conjugacy classes in finite simple groups. The first result is that there always exists a uniform generating triple. This result and other ideas are used to solve a 1966 conjecture of Peter Neumann…

A new general formula for the number of conjugacy classes of subgroups of given index in a finitely generated group is obtained.

We determine couples of singular moduli which have rational products

Let SL(2,q) be the group of 2X2 matrices with determinant one over a finite field F of size q. We prove that if q is even, then the product of any two noncentral conjugacy classes of SL(2,q) is the union of at least q-1 distinct conjugacy…

We construct a $U_q(\mathrm{so}(2n+1))$-equivariant local star-product on the complex sphere $\mathbb{S}^{2n}$ as a Non-Levi conjugacy class $SO(2n+1)/SO(2n)$.

We characterise the group property of being with infinite conjugacy classes for wreath products of groups

We derive a closed formula for the tensor product of a family of mixed tensors using Deligne's interpolating category $Rep(GL_{0})$. We use this formula to compute the tensor product between any two maximal atypical irreducible…

We classify the real and strongly real conjugacy classes in $GL_n(q)$, $SL_n(q)$, $PGL_n(q)$, $PSL_n(q)$, and all quasi-simple covers of $PSL_n(q)$. In each case we give a formula for the number of real, and the number of strongly real,…

In this paper we compute powers in the wreath product $G\wr S_n$, for any finite group $G$. For $r\geq 2$, a prime, consider $\omega_r: G\wr S_n\to G\wr S_n$ defined by $g \mapsto g^r$. Let $P_{r}(G\wr S_n)=\frac{|\omega_r(G\wr S_n)|}{|G|^n…

We classify all finite groups G such that the product of any two non-inverse conjugacy classes of G is always a conjugacy class of G. We also classify all finite groups G for which the product of any two G-conjugacy classes which are not…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $a\in G$. Let $a^G=\{g^{-1}ag\mid g\in G\}$ be the conjugacy class of $a$ in $G$. Assume that $a^G$ and $b^G$ are conjugacy classes of $G$ with the property that ${\bf C}_G(a)={\bf C}_G(b)$. Then $a^G b^G$ is a…
