Let $p$ be an odd prime and $G$ be a nonabelian group of order $p^{n}$ with the presentation $$<\alpha,\beta,\gamma\mid \alpha^{p^{a}}=\beta^{p^{b}}=\gamma^{p^{c}}=1,…

For an odd prime p, we determine a minimal set of topological generators of the pro-p Iwahori subgroup of a split reductive group G over Z\_p. In the simple adjoint case and for any sufficiently large regular prime p, we also construct…

In this paper, we add examples to Goeritz groups, the mapping class groups of given Heegaard splittings of 3-manifolds. We focus on a Heegaard splitting of genus two of a Seifert manifold whose base orbifold is sphere with three exceptional…

We prove that the Lie algebra $\mathfrak{sl}_n(\textbf{F}_q)$ of traceless matrices over a finite field of characteristic $p$ can be generated by $2$ elements with exceptions when $(n, p)$ is $(3, 3)$ or $(4,2)$. In the latter cases, we…

A redundant generating function is a generating function having terms which are not part of the solution of the original problem. We use redundant generating functions to study two path problems. In the first application we explain a…

We write $\mathbb P$ for the polynomial algebra in one variable over the finite field $\mathbb Z_2$ and $\mathbb P^{\otimes t} = \mathbb Z_2[x_1, \ldots, x_t]$ for its $t$-fold tensor product with itself. We grade $\mathbb P^{\otimes t}$ by…

For most (and possibly all) non-associative finite simple Moufang loops, three generators of order 3 can be chosen so that each two of them generate a group isomorphic to $(3, 3 | 3, p)$. The subgroup structure of $(3, 3 | 3, p)$ depends on…

We explore the question concerning the number of distinct resonant algebras depending on the generator content, which consists of the Lorentz generator, translation, and new additional Lorentz-like and translation-like generators. Such…

In this article we present a finite generating set $G_2$ of $\mathcal{H}_2$, the genus-2 Goeritz group of $S^3$, in terms of Dehn twists about certain simple closed curves on the standard Heegaard surface. We present an algorithm that…

A natural generating set for a Galois extension regarded as the splitting field of an irreducible polynomial is introduced and investigated here. Minimal generating sets arising in this context throw many surprises compared to the analogous…

Let $G$ be a finite $p$-group whose derived subgroup $G'$ can be generated by $2$ elements. If $G'$ is abelian, Guralnick proved that every element of $G'$ is a commutator. In this paper, we prove that the condition that $G'$ should be…

Two differential calculi are developped on an algebra generalizing the usual q-oscillator algebra and involving three generators and three parameters. They are shown to be invariant under the same quantum group that is extended to a…

A subset S of a finite group G invariably generates G if G = <hsg(s) j s 2 Si > for each choice of g(s) 2 G; s 2 S. We give a tight upper bound on the minimal size of an invariable generating set for an arbitrary finite group G. In response…

Let $G$ be a finite simple group of Lie type and let $P$ be a Sylow $2$-subgroup of $G$. In this paper, we prove that for any nontrivial element $x \in G$, there exists $g \in G$ such that $G = \langle P, x^g \rangle$. By combining this…

Let $\chi$ be an irreducible character of a finite group $G$. A. R. Miller conjectured that the proportion of elements $g\in G$ such that $\chi(g)$ is zero or a root of unity is at least 1/2. We construct a character of a perfect group of…

For a Grothendieck category having a noetherian generator, we prove that there are only finitely many minimal atoms. This is a noncommutative analogue of the fact that every noetherian scheme has only finitely many irreducible components.…

A finite group $G$ is \emph{coprimely-invariably generated} if there exists a set of generators $\{g_1, ..., g_u\}$ of $G$ with the property that the orders $|g_1|, ..., |g_u|$ are pairwise coprime and that for all $x_1, ..., x_u \in G$ the…

A group $G$ is invariably generated by a subset $S$ of $G$ if $G= s^{g(s)} \mid s\in S$ for each choice of $g(s) \in G$, $s \in S$. Answering two questions posed by Kantor, Lubotzky and Shalev, we prove that the free prosoluble group of…

Let $V_n$ be the ${\rm SL}_2$-module of binary forms of degree $n$ and let $V = V_1 \oplus V_3 \oplus V_4$. We show that the minimum number of generators of the algebra $R = \mathbb{C}[V]^{{\rm SL}_2}$ of polynomial functions on $V$…

The statement ``no nonabelian simple group can be obtained from a nonsimple group by adding one generator and one relator" 1) is equivalent to the Kervaire--Laudenbach conjecture; 2) becomes true under the additional assumption that the…
