We prove the Arad-Herzog conjecture for various families of finite simple groups- if A and B are nontrivial conjugacy classes, then AB is not a conjugacy class. We also prove that if G is a finite simple group of Lie type and A and B are…

We use the Bateman--Horn Conjecture from number theory to give strong evidence of a positive answer to Peter Neumann's question, whether there are infinitely many simple groups of order a product of six primes. (Those with fewer than six…

Let $G$ be a finite group and ${\rm cd}(G)$ denote the set of complex irreducible character degrees of $G$. In this paper, we prove that if $G$ is a finite group and $H$ is an almost simple group with socle $H_{0}= \, ^{2}{\rm G}_{2}(q)$,…

A longstanding conjecture asserts that every non-abelian finite $p$-group $G$ admits a non-inner automorphism of order $p$. The conjecture is valid for finite $p$-groups of class 2. Here, we prove every finite non-abelian $p$-group $G$ of…

Let G be a group. The intersection graph G(G) of G is an undirected graph without loops and multiple edges defined as follows: the vertex set is the set of all proper nontrivial subgroups of G; and there is an edge between two distinct…

Let $G$ be a nontrivial permutation group of degree $n$. If $G$ is transitive, then a theorem of Jordan states that $G$ has a derangement. Equivalently, a finite group is never the union of conjugates of a proper subgroup. If $G$ is…

Let $G$ be a finite group and let $(P_i)_{i=1}^n$ be Sylow subgroups for distinct primes $p_1,\ldots,p_n$. We conjecture that there exists $x \in G$ such that $P_i \cap P_i^x$ is inclusion-minimal in $\{ P_i \cap P_i^g : g \in G\}$ for all…

Let $G$ be a nontrivial transitive permutation group on a finite set $\Omega$. By a classical theorem of Jordan, $G$ contains a derangement, which is an element with no fixed points on $\Omega$. Given a prime divisor $r$ of $|\Omega|$, we…

We show that a compact group $G$ has finite conjugacy classes, i.e., is an FC-group if and only if its center $Z(G)$ is open if and only if its commutator subgroup $G'$ is finite. Let $d(G)$ denote the Haar measure of the set of all pairs…

Let $S$ be a closed Shimura variety uniformized by the complex $n$-ball. The Hodge conjecture predicts that every Hodge class in $H^{2k} (S, \Q)$, $k=0, \ldots, n$, is algebraic. We show that this holds for all degree $k$ away from the…

A group is SimpHAtic if it acts geometrically on a simply connected simplicially hereditarily aspherical (SimpHAtic) complex. We show that finitely presented normal subgroups of the SimpHAtic groups are either: finite, or of finite index,…

We prove the Batyrev-Manin conjecture for smooth equivariant compactifications of forms of $\mathbb{G}_a^n$ over a global function field $F$, assuming some conditions on the boundary divisor. To verify that the leading constant agrees with…

It is known that a group shift on a polycyclic group is necessarily of finite type. We show that, for trivial reasons, if a group does not satisfy the maximal condition on subgroups, then it admits non-SFT abelian group shifts. In…

We prove that if $G$ is a finite simple group which is the unit group of a ring, then $G$ is isomorphic to either (a) a cyclic group of order 2; (b) a cyclic group of prime order $2^k -1$ for some $k$; or (c) a projective special linear…

In this article, we study symmetric $(v, k, \lambda)$ designs admitting a flag-transitive and point-primitive automorphism group $G$ whose socle $X$ is a finite simple exceptional group of Lie type. We prove a reduction theorem, severely…

We detect topological semigroups that are topological paragroups, i.e., are isomorphic to a Rees product of a topological group over topological spaces with a continuous sandwich function. We prove that a simple topological semigroup $S$ is…

For a finite group $G$, let $\sigma(G)$ be the number of subgroups of $G$ and $\sigma_\iota(G)$ the number of isomorphism types of subgroups of $G$. Let $L=L_r(p^e)$ denote a simple group of Lie type, rank $r$, over a field of order $p^e$…

We prove a natural generalization of Szep's conjecture. Given an almost simple group $G$ with socle not isomorphic to an orthogonal group having Witt defect zero, we classify all possible group elements $x,y\in G\setminus\{1\}$ with $G={\bf…

We prove that if $\pi$ is a recursive set of primes, then pointlike sets are decidable for the pseudovariety of semigroups whose subgroups are $\pi$-groups. In particular, when $\pi$ is the empty set, we obtain Henckell's decidability of…

Let $\Pi$ be the fundamental group of a smooth variety X over $F_p$. Given a non-Archimedean place $\lambda$ of the field of algebraic numbers which is prime to p, consider the $\lambda$-adic pro-semisimple completion of $\Pi$ as an object…
