On the Davenport constant and group algebras

Daniel Smertnig (2010)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

For a finite abelian group G and a splitting field K of G, let (G,K) denote the largest integer l ∈ ℕ for which there is a sequence S = g · . . . · g l over G such that ( X g - a ) · . . . · ( X g l - a l ) 0 K [ G ] for all a , . . . , a l K × . If (G) denotes the Davenport constant of G, then there is the straightforward inequality (G) - 1 ≤ (G,K). Equality holds for a variety of groups, and a conjecture of W. Gao et al. states that equality holds for all groups. We offer further groups for which equality holds, but we also give the first examples of groups G for...

On a number theoretic conjecture on positive integral points in a 5-dimensional tetrahedron and a sharp estimate of the Dickman–De Bruijn function

Ke-Pao Lin, Xue Luo, Stephen S.-T. Yau, Huaiqing Zuo (2014)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

It is well known that getting the estimate of integral points in right-angled simplices is equivalent to getting the estimate of Dickman-De Bruijn function ψ ( x , y ) which is the number of positive integers x and free of prime factors > y . Motivating from the Yau Geometry Conjecture, the third author formulated the Number Theoretic Conjecture which gives a sharp polynomial upper estimate that counts the number of positive integral points in n-dimensional ( n 3 ) real right-angled simplices. In this...

A basis of ℤₘ, II

Min Tang, Yong-Gao Chen (2007)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

Given a set A ⊂ ℕ let σ A ( n ) denote the number of ordered pairs (a,a’) ∈ A × A such that a + a’ = n. Erdős and Turán conjectured that for any asymptotic basis A of ℕ, σ A ( n ) is unbounded. We show that the analogue of the Erdős-Turán conjecture does not hold in the abelian group (ℤₘ,+), namely, for any natural number m, there exists a set A ⊆ ℤₘ such that A + A = ℤₘ and σ A ( n ̅ ) 5120 for all n̅ ∈ ℤₘ.

On the Brocard-Ramanujan problem and generalizations

Andrzej Dąbrowski (2012)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

Let p i denote the ith prime. We conjecture that there are precisely 28 solutions to the equation n ² - 1 = p α p k α k in positive integers n and α₁,..., α k . This conjecture implies an explicit description of the set of solutions to the Brocard-Ramanujan equation. We also propose another variant of the Brocard-Ramanujan problem: describe the set of solutions in non-negative integers of the equation n! + A = x₁²+x₂²+x₃² (A fixed).

Characterization of the alternating groups by their order and one conjugacy class length

Alireza Khalili Asboei, Reza Mohammadyari (2016)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

Let G be a finite group, and let N ( G ) be the set of conjugacy class sizes of G . By Thompson’s conjecture, if L is a finite non-abelian simple group, G is a finite group with a trivial center, and N ( G ) = N ( L ) , then L and G are isomorphic. Recently, Chen et al. contributed interestingly to Thompson’s conjecture under a weak condition. They only used the group order and one or two special conjugacy class sizes of simple groups and characterized successfully sporadic simple groups (see Li’s PhD dissertation)....

Recent progress on the Jacobian Conjecture

Michiel de Bondt, Arno van den Essen (2005)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Similarity:

We describe some recent developments concerning the Jacobian Conjecture (JC). First we describe Drużkowski’s result in [6] which asserts that it suffices to study the JC for Drużkowski mappings of the form x + ( A x ) * 3 with A² = 0. Then we describe the authors’ result of [2] which asserts that it suffices to study the JC for so-called gradient mappings, i.e. mappings of the form x - ∇f, with f k [ n ] homogeneous of degree 4. Using this result we explain Zhao’s reformulation of the JC which asserts the...

Eigenspaces of the ideal class group

Cornelius Greither, Radan Kučera (2014)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

Similarity:

The aim of this paper is to prove an analog of Gras’ conjecture for an abelian field F and an odd prime p dividing the degree [ F : ] assuming that the p -part of Gal ( F / ) group is cyclic.

The Cohen-Lenstra heuristics, moments and p j -ranks of some groups

Christophe Delaunay, Frédéric Jouhet (2014)

Acta Arithmetica

Similarity:

This article deals with the coherence of the model given by the Cohen-Lenstra heuristic philosophy for class groups and also for their generalizations to Tate-Shafarevich groups. More precisely, our first goal is to extend a previous result due to É. Fouvry and J. Klüners which proves that a conjecture provided by the Cohen-Lenstra philosophy implies another such conjecture. As a consequence of our work, we can deduce, for example, a conjecture for the probability laws of p j -ranks of...

On sequences over a finite abelian group with zero-sum subsequences of forbidden lengths

Weidong Gao, Yuanlin Li, Pingping Zhao, Jujuan Zhuang (2016)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

Let G be an additive finite abelian group. For every positive integer ℓ, let d i s c ( G ) be the smallest positive integer t such that each sequence S over G of length |S| ≥ t has a nonempty zero-sum subsequence of length not equal to ℓ. In this paper, we determine d i s c ( G ) for certain finite groups, including cyclic groups, the groups G = C C 2 m and elementary abelian 2-groups. Following Girard, we define disc(G) as the smallest positive integer t such that every sequence S over G with |S| ≥ t has nonempty zero-sum...

The generalized Hodge and Bloch conjectures are equivalent for general complete intersections

Claire Voisin (2013)

Annales scientifiques de l'École Normale Supérieure

Similarity:

We prove that Bloch’s conjecture is true for surfaces with p g = 0 obtained as 0 -sets X σ of a section σ of a very ample vector bundle on a variety X with “trivial” Chow groups. We get a similar result in presence of a finite group action, showing that if a projector of the group acts as 0 on holomorphic 2 -forms of  X σ , then it acts as 0 on  0 -cycles of degree 0 of  X σ . In higher dimension, we also prove a similar but conditional result showing that the generalized Hodge conjecture for general X σ ...

On a translation property of positive definite functions

Lars Omlor, Michael Leinert (2010)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

If G is a locally compact group with a compact invariant neighbourhood of the identity e, the following property (*) holds: For every continuous positive definite function h≥ 0 with compact support there is a constant C h > 0 such that L x h · g C h h g for every continuous positive definite g≥0, where L x is left translation by x. In [L], property (*) was stated, but the above inequality was proved for special h only. That “for one h” implies “for all h” seemed obvious, but turned out not to be obvious at...

On a conjecture of Dekking : The sum of digits of even numbers

Iurie Boreico, Daniel El-Baz, Thomas Stoll (2014)

Journal de Théorie des Nombres de Bordeaux

Similarity:

Let q 2 and denote by s q the sum-of-digits function in base q . For j = 0 , 1 , , q - 1 consider # { 0 n < N : s q ( 2 n ) j ( mod q ) } . In 1983, F. M. Dekking conjectured that this quantity is greater than N / q and, respectively, less than N / q for infinitely many N , thereby claiming an absence of a drift (or Newman) phenomenon. In this paper we prove his conjecture.

Homotopy invariance of higher signatures and 3 -manifold groups

Michel Matthey, Hervé Oyono-Oyono, Wolfgang Pitsch (2008)

Bulletin de la Société Mathématique de France

Similarity:

For closed oriented manifolds, we establish oriented homotopy invariance of higher signatures that come from the fundamental group of a large class of orientable 3 -manifolds, including the “piecewise geometric” ones in the sense of Thurston. In particular, this class, that will be carefully described, is the class of all orientable 3 -manifolds if the Thurston Geometrization Conjecture is true. In fact, for this type of groups, we show that the Baum-Connes Conjecture With Coefficients...

Number of solutions in a box of a linear equation in an Abelian group

Maciej Zakarczemny (2016)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

For every finite Abelian group Γ and for all g , a , . . . , a k Γ , if there exists a solution of the equation i = 1 k a i x i = g in non-negative integers x i b i , where b i are positive integers, then the number of such solutions is estimated from below in the best possible way.

The Jacobian Conjecture in case of "non-negative coefficients"

Ludwik M. Drużkowski (1997)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Similarity:

It is known that it is sufficient to consider in the Jacobian Conjecture only polynomial mappings of the form F ( x , . . . , x n ) = x - H ( x ) : = ( x - H ( x , . . . , x n ) , . . . , x n - H n ( x , . . . , x n ) ) , where H j are homogeneous polynomials of degree 3 with real coefficients (or H j = 0 ), j = 1,...,n and H’(x) is a nilpotent matrix for each x = ( x , . . . , x n ) n . We give another proof of Yu’s theorem that in the case of non-negative coefficients of H the mapping F is a polynomial automorphism, and we moreover prove that in that case d e g F - 1 ( d e g F ) i n d F - 1 , where i n d F : = m a x i n d H ' ( x ) : x n . Note that the above inequality is not true when the coefficients...

The strength of the projective Martin conjecture

C. T. Chong, Wei Wang, Liang Yu (2010)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We show that Martin’s conjecture on Π¹₁ functions uniformly T -order preserving on a cone implies Π¹₁ Turing Determinacy over ZF + DC. In addition, it is also proved that for n ≥ 0, this conjecture for uniformly degree invariant Π ¹ 2 n + 1 functions is equivalent over ZFC to Σ ¹ 2 n + 2 -Axiom of Determinacy. As a corollary, the consistency of the conjecture for uniformly degree invariant Π¹₁ functions implies the consistency of the existence of a Woodin cardinal.

Corrigendum to “Commutators on ( q ) p ” (Studia Math. 206 (2011), 175-190)

Dongyang Chen, William B. Johnson, Bentuo Zheng (2014)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

We give a corrected proof of Theorem 2.10 in our paper “Commutators on ( q ) p ” [Studia Math. 206 (2011), 175-190] for the case 1 < q < p < ∞. The case when 1 = q < p < ∞ remains open. As a consequence, the Main Theorem and Corollary 2.17 in that paper are only valid for 1 < p,q < ∞.

Completely bounded lacunary sets for compact non-abelian groups

Kathryn Hare, Parasar Mohanty (2015)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

In this paper, we introduce and study the notion of completely bounded Λ p sets ( Λ p c b for short) for compact, non-abelian groups G. We characterize Λ p c b sets in terms of completely bounded L p ( G ) multipliers. We prove that when G is an infinite product of special unitary groups of arbitrarily large dimension, there are sets consisting of representations of unbounded degree that are Λ p sets for all p < ∞, but are not Λ p c b for any p ≥ 4. This is done by showing that the space of completely bounded L p ( G ) ...

Invariance of the parity conjecture for p -Selmer groups of elliptic curves in a D 2 p n -extension

Thomas de La Rochefoucauld (2011)

Bulletin de la Société Mathématique de France

Similarity:

We show a p -parity result in a D 2 p n -extension of number fields L / K ( p 5 ) for the twist 1 η τ : W ( E / K , 1 η τ ) = ( - 1 ) 1 η τ , X p ( E / L ) , where E is an elliptic curve over K , η and τ are respectively the quadratic character and an irreductible representation of degree 2 of Gal ( L / K ) = D 2 p n , and X p ( E / L ) is the p -Selmer group. The main novelty is that we use a congruence result between ε 0 -factors (due to Deligne) for the determination of local root numbers in bad cases (places of additive reduction above 2 and 3). We also give applications to the p -parity conjecture...

The density of representation degrees

Martin Liebeck, Dan Segal, Aner Shalev (2012)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

For a group G and a positive real number x , define d G ( x ) to be the number of integers less than x which are dimensions of irreducible complex representations of G . We study the asymptotics of d G ( x ) for algebraic groups, arithmetic groups and finitely generated linear groups. In particular we prove an “alternative” for finitely generated linear groups G in characteristic zero, showing that either there exists α > 0 such that d G ( x ) > x α for all large x , or G is virtually abelian (in which case d G ( x ) is bounded). ...
