The Hughes subgroup

Robert Bryce (1994)

Atti della Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei. Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali. Rendiconti Lincei. Matematica e Applicazioni

Similarity:

Let $G$ be a group and $p$ a prime. The subgroup generated by the elements of order different from $p$ is called the Hughes subgroup for exponent $p$ . Hughes [3] made the following conjecture: if $H_{p} (G)$ is non-trivial, its index in $G$ is at most $p$ . There are many articles that treat this problem. In the present Note we examine those of Strauss and Szekeres [9], which treats the case $p = 3$ and $G$ arbitrary, and that of Hogan and Kappe [2] concerning the case when $G$ is metabelian, and $p$ arbitrary. A common...

Approximate amenability for Banach sequence algebras

H. G. Dales, R. J. Loy, Y. Zhang (2006)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

We consider when certain Banach sequence algebras A on the set ℕ are approximately amenable. Some general results are obtained, and we resolve the special cases where $A = ℓ^{p}$ for 1 ≤ p < ∞, showing that these algebras are not approximately amenable. The same result holds for the weighted algebras $ℓ^{p} (ω)$ .

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 $S = g ₁ \cdot . . . \cdot g_{l}$ over G such that $(X^{g ₁} - a ₁) \cdot . . . \cdot (X^{g_{l}} - a_{l}) \neq 0 \in K [G]$ for all $a ₁, . . ., a_{l} \in K^{\times}$ . 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...

Beurling-Figà-Talamanca-Herz algebras

Serap Öztop, Volker Runde, Nico Spronk (2012)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

For a locally compact group G and p ∈ (1,∞), we define and study the Beurling-Figà-Talamanca-Herz algebras $A_{p} (G, ω)$ . For p = 2 and abelian G, these are precisely the Beurling algebras on the dual group Ĝ. For p = 2 and compact G, our approach subsumes an earlier one by H. H. Lee and E. Samei. The key to our approach is not to define Beurling algebras through weights, i.e., possibly unbounded continuous functions, but rather through their inverses, which are bounded continuous functions. We...

A representation theorem for tense $n \times m$ -valued Łukasiewicz-Moisil algebras

Aldo Victorio Figallo, Gustavo Pelaitay (2015)

Mathematica Bohemica

Similarity:

In 2000, Figallo and Sanza introduced $n \times m$ -valued Łukasiewicz-Moisil algebras which are both particular cases of matrix Łukasiewicz algebras and a generalization of $n$ -valued Łukasiewicz-Moisil algebras. Here we initiate an investigation into the class $_{n \times m}$ of tense $n \times m$ -valued Łukasiewicz-Moisil algebras (or tense LM $_{n \times m}$ -algebras), namely $n \times m$ -valued Łukasiewicz-Moisil algebras endowed with two unary operations called tense operators. These algebras constitute a generalization of tense...

Isometries between groups of invertible elements in Banach algebras

Osamu Hatori (2009)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

We show that if T is an isometry (as metric spaces) from an open subgroup of the group of invertible elements in a unital semisimple commutative Banach algebra A onto a open subgroup of the group of invertible elements in a unital Banach algebra B, then $T {(1)}^{- 1} T$ is an isometrical group isomorphism. In particular, $T {(1)}^{- 1} T$ extends to an isometrical real algebra isomorphism from A onto B.

Solvable Leibniz algebras with NF n ⊕ [...] F m 1 $\begin{matrix} F_{m}^{1} \end{matrix}$ nilradical

L.M. Camacho, B.A. Omirov, K.K. Masutova, I.M. Rikhsiboev (2017)

Open Mathematics

Similarity:

All finite-dimensional solvable Leibniz algebras L, having N = NFn⊕ [...] Fm1 $\begin{matrix} F_{m}^{1} \end{matrix}$ as the nilradical and the dimension of L equal to n+m+3 (the maximal dimension) are described. NFn and [...] Fm1 $\begin{matrix} F_{m}^{1} \end{matrix}$ are the null-filiform and naturally graded filiform Leibniz algebras of dimensions n and m, respectively. Moreover, we show that these algebras are rigid.

On unit group of finite semisimple group algebras of non-metabelian groups up to order 72

Gaurav Mittal, Rajendra Kumar Sharma (2021)

Mathematica Bohemica

Similarity:

We characterize the unit group of semisimple group algebras $𝔽_{q} G$ of some non-metabelian groups, where $F_{q}$ is a field with $q = p^{k}$ elements for $p$ prime and a positive integer $k$ . In particular, we consider all 6 non-metabelian groups of order 48, the only non-metabelian group $((C_{3} \times C_{3}) ⋊ C_{3}) ⋊ C_{2}$ of order 54, and 7 non-metabelian groups of order 72. This completes the study of unit groups of semisimple group algebras for groups upto order 72.

Engel BCI-algebras: an application of left and right commutators

Ardavan Najafi, Arsham Borumand Saeid (2021)

Mathematica Bohemica

Similarity:

We introduce Engel elements in a BCI-algebra by using left and right normed commutators, and some properties of these elements are studied. The notion of $n$ -Engel BCI-algebra as a natural generalization of commutative BCI-algebras is introduced, and we discuss Engel BCI-algebra, which is defined by left and right normed commutators. In particular, we prove that any nilpotent BCI-algebra of type $2$ is an Engel BCI-algebra, but solvable BCI-algebras are not Engel, generally. Also, it is...

A geometric approach to full Colombeau algebras

R. Steinbauer (2010)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

We present a geometric approach to diffeomorphism invariant full Colombeau algebras which allows a particularly clear view of the construction of the intrinsically defined algebra $\hat{} (M)$ on the manifold M given in [gksv].

Quantized semisimple Lie groups

Rita Fioresi, Robert Yuncken (2024)

Archivum Mathematicum

Similarity:

The goal of this expository paper is to give a quick introduction to $q$ -deformations of semisimple Lie groups. We discuss principally the rank one examples of $𝒰_{q} ({𝔰𝔩}_{2})$ , $𝒪 ({SU}_{q} (2))$ , $𝒟 ({SL}_{q} (2, ℂ))$ and related algebras. We treat quantized enveloping algebras, representations of $𝒰_{q} ({𝔰𝔩}_{2})$ , generalities on Hopf algebras and quantum groups, $*$ -structures, quantized algebras of functions on $q$ -deformed compact semisimple groups, the Peter-Weyl theorem, $*$ -Hopf algebras associated to complex semisimple Lie groups and the Drinfeld...

Operator Segal algebras in Fourier algebras

Brian E. Forrest, Nico Spronk, Peter J. Wood (2007)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

Let G be a locally compact group, A(G) its Fourier algebra and L¹(G) the space of Haar integrable functions on G. We study the Segal algebra S¹A(G) = A(G) ∩ L¹(G) in A(G). It admits an operator space structure which makes it a completely contractive Banach algebra. We compute the dual space of S¹A(G). We use it to show that the restriction operator ${u \mapsto u |}_{H} : S ¹ A (G) \to A (H)$ , for some non-open closed subgroups H, is a surjective complete quotient map. We also show that if N is a non-compact closed subgroup,...

The tensor algebra of power series spaces

Dietmar Vogt (2009)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

The linear isomorphism type of the tensor algebra T(E) of Fréchet spaces and, in particular, of power series spaces is studied. While for nuclear power series spaces of infinite type it is always s, the situation for finite type power series spaces is more complicated. The linear isomorphism T(s) ≅ s can be used to define a multiplication on s which makes it a Fréchet m-algebra $s_{•}$ . This may be used to give an algebra analogue to the structure theory of s, that is, characterize Fréchet...
