Let $G$ be a finite group. The group pseudo-algebra of $G$ is defined as the multi-set $C(G)=\{(d,m_G(d))\mid d\in{\rm Cod}(G)\},$ where $m_G(d)$ is the number of irreducible characters of with codegree $d\in {\rm Cod}(G)$. We show that…

Motivated by expansion in Cayley graphs, we show that there exist infinitely many groups $G$ with a nontrivial irreducible unitary representation whose average over every set of $o(\log\log|G|)$ elements of $G$ has operator norm $1 - o(1)$.…

We show that the left regular representation of Neretin groups is factorial, providing the first example of a non-discrete simple group with this property. This is based on a new criterion of factoriality for totally disconnected groups.…

For a finite abelian group $(G,+)$, the constant $C(G)$ is defined to be the smallest natural number $k$ such that any sequence in $G$ having length $k$ will have a subsequence of consecutive terms whose sum is zero. For a subset…

Given three positive integers $n,a,b$ with $n=ab$, we determine the base size of the symmetric group and of the alternating group of degree $n$ in their action on the set of partitions into $b$ parts having cardinality $a$.

Let $G$ be a finite group and $N$ a normal subgroup of $G$. We prove that the knowledge of the sizes of the conjugacy classes of $G$ that are contained in $N$ and of their multiplicities provides information of $N$ in relation to the…

We prove that the number of perfect matchings in ${\mathcal G}(n,d)$ is asymptotically normal when $n$ is even, $d\to\infty$ as $n\to\infty$, and $d=O(n^{1/7}/\log^2 n)$. This is the first distributional result of spanning subgraphs of…

Let $G$ be a group and $A\subseteq [1,\exp(G)-1]$. We define the constant ${\sf C}_A(G),$ which is the least positive integer $\ell$ such that every sequence over $G$ of length at least $\ell$ has an $A$-weighted consecutive product-one…

Consider the Macdonald group $G(\alpha,\beta)=\langle A,B\,|\, A^{[A,B]}=A^\alpha,\, B^{[B,A]}=B^\beta\rangle$, where $\alpha$ and $\beta$ are integers different from one. We fill a gap in Macdonald's original proof that $G(\alpha,\beta)$…

Let G be an arbitrary Abelian group and let A be a finite subset of G. A has small additive doubling if |A+A| < K|A| for some K>0. These sets were studied in papers of G.A. Freiman, Y. Bilu, I. Ruzsa, M.C.--Chang, B. Green and T.Tao. In the…

Let $G$ be a finite group, and $\alpha$ a nontrivial character of $G$. The McKay graph $\mathcal{M}(G,\alpha)$ has the irreducible characters of $G$ as vertices, with an edge from $\chi_1$ to $\chi_2$ if $\chi_2$ is a constituent of…

We prove that for every $\epsilon>0$ there exists $\delta>0$ such that the following holds. Let $\mathcal{C}$ be a collection of $n$ curves in the plane such that there are at most $(\frac{1}{4}-\epsilon)\frac{n^{2}}{2}$ pairs of curves…

A subset $A$ of an additive abelian group is an $h$-Sidon set if every element in the $h$-fold sumset $hA$ has a unique representation as the sum of $h$ not necessarily distinct elements of $A$. Let $\mathbf{F}$ be a field of characteristic…

We prove an elementary additive combinatorics inequality, which says that if $A$ is a subset of an Abelian group, which has, in some strong sense, large doubling, then the difference set A-A has a large subset, which has small doubling.

We prove that for any integer $n\geq 12$, and for every $r$ in the interval $[3, \ldots, \lfloor (n-1)/2\rfloor]$, the group $A_n$ has a string C-group representation of rank $r$ therefore showing that the only alternating group whose set…

Erd\"os conjectured the existence of an infinite Sidon sequence of positive integers which is also an asymptotic basis of order 3. We make progress towards this conjecture in several directions. First we prove the conjecture for all cyclic…

We study groups $G$ where the $\varphi$-conjugacy class $[e]_{\varphi}=\{g^{-1}\varphi(g)~|~g\in G\}$ of the unit element is a subgroup of $G$ for every automorphism $\varphi$ of $G$. If $G$ has $n$ generators, then we prove that the $k$-th…

$O(N)$ invariants are the observables of real tensor models. We use regular colored graphs to represent these invariants, the valence of the vertices of the graphs relates to the tensor rank. We enumerate $O(N)$ invariants as $d$-regular…

Let $\Gamma(G)$ be the prime graph associated with a finite group $G$ and $D(G)$ be the degree pattern of $G$. A finite group $G$ is said to be $k$-fold OD-characterizable if there exist exactly $k$ non-isomorphic groups $H$ such that…

We prove that for any positive integer c there are at least N(c), $1\leq N(c) < \phi(c)/2$ representations of c as a sum of two positive integers a, b, with no common divisor, such that the N(c) radicals R(abc) are all greater than kc,…
