Alireza Abdollahi, Javad Bagherian, Mahdi Ebrahimi, Maryam Khatami, Zahra Shahbazi, Reza Sobhani (2022)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

For a complex character $χ$ of a finite group $G$ , it is known that the product $sh (χ) = \prod_{l \in L (χ)} (χ (1) - l)$ is a multiple of $| G |$ , where $L (χ)$ is the image of $χ$ on $G - {1}$ . The character $χ$ is said to be a sharp character of type $L$ if $L = L (χ)$ and $sh (χ) = | G |$ . If the principal character of $G$ is not an irreducible constituent of $χ$ , then the character $χ$ is called normalized. It is proposed as a problem by P. J. Cameron and M. Kiyota, to find finite groups $G$ with normalized sharp characters of type ${- 1, 0, 2}$ . Here we prove that such a group with nontrivial...

The unit groups of semisimple group algebras of some non-metabelian groups of order $144$

Gaurav Mittal, Rajendra K. Sharma (2023)

Mathematica Bohemica

Similarity:

We consider all the non-metabelian groups $G$ of order $144$ that have exponent either $36$ or $72$ and deduce the unit group $U (𝔽_{q} G)$ of semisimple group algebra $𝔽_{q} G$ . Here, $q$ denotes the power of a prime, i.e., $q = p^{r}$ for $p$ prime and a positive integer $r$ . Up to isomorphism, there are $6$ groups of order $144$ that have exponent either $36$ or $72$ . Additionally, we also discuss how to simply obtain the unit groups of the semisimple group algebras of those non-metabelian groups of order $144$ that are a direct product of two...

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). ...

Products of conjugacy classes in finite unitary groups $G U (3, q^{2})$ and $S U (3, q^{2})$

Annales de la faculté des sciences de Toulouse Mathématiques

Similarity:

For the groups $G U (3)$ , $S U (3)$ , $G L (3)$ , $S U (3)$ over a finite field we solve the class product problem, i.e., we give a complete list of $m$ -tuples of conjugacy classes whose product does not contain the identity matrix.

Groups satisfying the two-prime hypothesis with a composition factor isomorphic to PSL $_{2} (q)$ for $q \geq 7$

Mark L. Lewis, Yanjun Liu, Hung P. Tong-Viet (2018)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

Let $G$ be a finite group and write $cd (G)$ for the degree set of the complex irreducible characters of $G$ . The group $G$ is said to satisfy the two-prime hypothesis if for any distinct degrees $a, b \in cd (G)$ , the total number of (not necessarily different) primes of the greatest common divisor $gcd (a, b)$ is at most $2$ . We prove an upper bound on the number of irreducible character degrees of a nonsolvable group that has a composition factor isomorphic to PSL $_{2} (q)$ for $q \geq 7$ .

Recognition of characteristically simple group $A_{5} \times A_{5}$ by character degree graph and order

Maryam Khademi, Behrooz Khosravi (2018)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

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...

Obstruction sets and extensions of groups

Francesca Balestrieri (2016)

Acta Arithmetica

Similarity:

Let X be a nice variety over a number field k. We characterise in pure “descent-type” terms some inequivalent obstruction sets refining the inclusion $X {(_{k})}^{é t, B r} \subset X {(_{k})}^{B r ₁}$ . In the first part, we apply ideas from the proof of $X {(_{k})}^{é t, B r} = X {(_{k})}^{_{k}}$ by Skorobogatov and Demarche to new cases, by proving a comparison theorem for obstruction sets. In the second part, we show that if $\subset \subset_{k}$ are such that $\subset E x t (,_{k})$ , then $X {(_{k})}^{} = X {(_{k})}^{}$ . This allows us to conclude, among other things, that $X {(_{k})}^{é t, B r} = X {(_{k})}^{_{k}}$ and $X {(_{k})}^{S o l, B r ₁} = X {(_{k})}^{S o l_{k}}$ .

A new characterization for the simple group $PSL (2, p^{2})$ by order and some character degrees

Behrooz Khosravi, Behnam Khosravi, Bahman Khosravi, Zahra Momen (2015)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

Let $G$ be a finite group and $p$ a prime number. We prove that if $G$ is a finite group of order $| PSL (2, p^{2}) |$ such that $G$ has an irreducible character of degree $p^{2}$ and we know that $G$ has no irreducible character $θ$ such that $2 p ∣ θ (1)$ , then $G$ is isomorphic to $PSL (2, p^{2})$ . As a consequence of our result we prove that $PSL (2, p^{2})$ is uniquely determined by the structure of its complex group algebra.

Quiver varieties and the character ring of general linear groups over finite fields

Emmanuel Letellier (2013)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

Given a tuple $(𝒳_{1}, ..., 𝒳_{k})$ of irreducible characters of $G L_{n} (F_{q})$ we define a star-shaped quiver $Γ$ together with a dimension vector $v$ . Assume that $(𝒳_{1}, ..., 𝒳_{k})$ is generic. Our first result is a formula which expresses the multiplicity of the trivial character in the tensor product $𝒳_{1} \otimes \dots \otimes 𝒳_{k}$ as the trace of the action of some Weyl group on the intersection cohomology of some (non-affine) quiver varieties associated to $(Γ, v)$ . The existence of such a quiver variety is subject to some condition. Assuming that this condition is satisfied,...

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)....

On the structural theory of ${II}_{1}$ factors of negatively curved groups

Ionut Chifan, Thomas Sinclair (2013)

Annales scientifiques de l'École Normale Supérieure

Similarity:

Ozawa showed in [21] that for any i.c.c. hyperbolic group, the associated group factor $L Γ$ is solid. Developing a new approach that combines some methods of Peterson [29], Ozawa and Popa [27, 28], and Ozawa [25], we strengthen this result by showing that $L Γ$ is strongly solid. Using our methods in cooperation with a cocycle superrigidity result of Ioana [12], we show that profinite actions of lattices in $Sp (n, 1)$ , $n \geq 2$ , are virtually $W^{*}$ -superrigid.

Finite groups whose all proper subgroups are $𝒞$ -groups

Pengfei Guo, Jianjun Liu (2018)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

A group $G$ is said to be a $𝒞$ -group if for every divisor $d$ of the order of $G$ , there exists a subgroup $H$ of $G$ of order $d$ such that $H$ is normal or abnormal in $G$ . We give a complete classification of those groups which are not $𝒞$ -groups but all of whose proper subgroups are $𝒞$ -groups.

Limits of relatively hyperbolic groups and Lyndon’s completions

Olga Kharlampovich, Alexei Myasnikov (2012)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We describe finitely generated groups $H$ universally equivalent (with constants from $G$ in the language) to a given torsion-free relatively hyperbolic group $G$ with free abelian parabolics. It turns out that, as in the free group case, the group $H$ embeds into the Lyndon’s completion $G^{ℤ [t]}$ of the group $G$ , or, equivalently, $H$ embeds into a group obtained from $G$ by finitely many extensions of centralizers. Conversely, every subgroup of $G^{ℤ [t]}$ containing $G$ is universally equivalent to $G$ . Since finitely...
