The hyperbolic triangle centroid

Abraham A. Ungar (2004)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Some gyrocommutative gyrogroups, also known as Bruck loops or K-loops, admit scalar multiplication, turning themselves into gyrovector spaces. The latter, in turn, form the setting for hyperbolic geometry just as vector spaces form the setting for Euclidean geometry. In classical mechanics the centroid of a triangle in velocity space is the velocity of the center of momentum of three massive objects with equal masses located at the triangle vertices. Employing gyrovector space techniques we find...

The influence of weakly-supplemented subgroups on the structure of finite groups

Qingjun Kong, Qingfeng Liu (2014)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

A subgroup H of a finite group G is weakly-supplemented in G if there exists a proper subgroup K of G such that G = H K . In the paper it is proved that a finite group G is p -nilpotent provided p is the smallest prime number dividing the order of G and every minimal subgroup of P G ' is weakly-supplemented in N G ( P ) , where P is a Sylow p -subgroup of G . As applications, some interesting results with weakly-supplemented minimal subgroups of P G ' are obtained.
