Receding polar regions of a spherical building and the center conjecture

Bernhard Mühlherr, Richard M. Weiss (2013)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

We introduce the notion of a polar region of a spherical building and use some simple observations about polar regions to give elementary proofs of various fundamental properties of root groups. We combine some of these observations with results of Timmesfeld, Balser and Lytchak to give a new proof of the center conjecture for convex chamber subcomplexes of thick spherical buildings.

Recognition of characteristically simple group A 5 × A 5 by character degree graph and order

Maryam Khademi, Behrooz Khosravi (2018)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

The character degree graph of a finite group G is the graph whose vertices are the prime divisors of the irreducible character degrees of G and two vertices p and q are joined by an edge if p q divides some irreducible character degree of G . It is proved that some simple groups are uniquely determined by their orders and their character degree graphs. But since the character degree graphs of the characteristically simple groups are complete, there are very narrow class of characteristically simple...

Recognition of some families of finite simple groups by order and set of orders of vanishing elements

Maryam Khatami, Azam Babai (2018)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Let G be a finite group. An element g G is called a vanishing element if there exists an irreducible complex character χ of G such that χ ( g ) = 0 . Denote by Vo ( G ) the set of orders of vanishing elements of G . Ghasemabadi, Iranmanesh, Mavadatpour (2015), in their paper presented the following conjecture: Let G be a finite group and M a finite nonabelian simple group such that Vo ( G ) = Vo ( M ) and | G | = | M | . Then G M . We answer in affirmative this conjecture for M = S z ( q ) , where q = 2 2 n + 1 and either q - 1 , q - 2 q + 1 or q + 2 q + 1 is a prime number, and M = F 4 ( q ) , where q = 2 n and either...

Recognizability of finite groups by Suzuki group

Alireza Khalili Asboei, Seyed Sadegh Salehi Amiri (2019)

Archivum Mathematicum

Let G be a finite group. The main supergraph 𝒮 ( G ) is a graph with vertex set G in which two vertices x and y are adjacent if and only if o ( x ) o ( y ) or o ( y ) o ( x ) . In this paper, we will show that G S z ( q ) if and only if 𝒮 ( G ) 𝒮 ( S z ( q ) ) , where q = 2 2 m + 1 8 .
