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 $L^{p} (G)$ ...

Almost everywhere convergence of convolution powers on compact abelian groups

Jean-Pierre Conze, Michael Lin (2013)

Annales de l'I.H.P. Probabilités et statistiques

Similarity:

It is well-known that a probability measure $μ$ on the circle $𝕋$ satisfies $∥ μ^{n} {* f - \int f d m ∥}_{p} \to 0$ for every $f \in L_{p}$ , every (some) $p \in [1, \infty)$ , if and only if $| \hat{μ} (n) | l t; 1$ for every non-zero $n \in ℤ$ ( $μ$ is strictly aperiodic). In this paper we study the a.e. convergence of $μ^{n} * f$ for every $f \in L_{p}$ whenever $p g t; 1$ . We prove a necessary and sufficient condition, in terms of the Fourier–Stieltjes coefficients of $μ$ , for the strong sweeping out property (existence of a Borel set $B$ with $lim sup μ^{n} * 1_{B} = 1$ a.e. and $lim inf μ^{n} * 1_{B} = 0$ a.e.). The results are extended to general compact Abelian groups...

A property which ensures that a finitely generated hyper-(Abelian-by-finite) group is finite-by-nilpotent

Fares Gherbi, Nadir Trabelsi (2024)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

Let $𝔐$ be the class of groups satisfying the minimal condition on normal subgroups and let $Ω$ be the class of groups of finite lower central depth, that is groups $G$ such that $γ_{i} (G) = γ_{i + 1} (G)$ for some positive integer $i$ . The main result states that if $G$ is a finitely generated hyper-(Abelian-by-finite) group such that for every $x \in G$ , there exists a normal subgroup $H_{x}$ of finite index in $G$ satisfying $〈 x, x^{h} 〉 \in 𝔐 Ω$ for every $h \in H_{x}$ , then $G$ is finite-by-nilpotent. As a consequence of this result, we prove that a finitely generated...

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 $g, a ₁, . . ., a_{k} \in Γ$ , if there exists a solution of the equation $\sum_{i = 1}^{k} a_{i} x_{i} = g$ in non-negative integers $x_{i} \leq b_{i}$ , where $b_{i}$ are positive integers, then the number of such solutions is estimated from below in the best possible way.

A note on infinite $a S$ -groups

Reza Nikandish, Babak Miraftab (2015)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

Let $G$ be a group. If every nontrivial subgroup of $G$ has a proper supplement, then $G$ is called an $a S$ -group. We study some properties of $a S$ -groups. For instance, it is shown that a nilpotent group $G$ is an $a S$ -group if and only if $G$ is a subdirect product of cyclic groups of prime orders. We prove that if $G$ is an $a S$ -group which satisfies the descending chain condition on subgroups, then $G$ is finite. Among other results, we characterize all abelian groups for which every nontrivial quotient group...

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...

On the structure of sequences with forbidden zero-sum subsequences

W. D. Gao, R. Thangadurai (2003)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

We study the structure of longest sequences in $ℤ ₙ^{d}$ which have no zero-sum subsequence of length n (or less). We prove, among other results, that for $n = 2^{a}$ and d arbitrary, or $n = 3^{a}$ and d = 3, every sequence of c(n,d)(n-1) elements in $ℤ ₙ^{d}$ which has no zero-sum subsequence of length n consists of c(n,d) distinct elements each appearing n-1 times, where $c (2^{a}, d) = 2^{d}$ and $c (3^{a}, 3) = 9$ .

Polycyclic groups with automorphisms of order four

Tao Xu, Fang Zhou, Heguo Liu (2016)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

In this paper, we study the structure of polycyclic groups admitting an automorphism of order four on the basis of Neumann’s result, and prove that if $α$ is an automorphism of order four of a polycyclic group $G$ and the map $ϕ : G \to G$ defined by $g^{ϕ} = [g, α]$ is surjective, then $G$ contains a characteristic subgroup $H$ of finite index such that the second derived subgroup $H^{''}$ is included in the centre of $H$ and $C_{H} (α^{2})$ is abelian, both $C_{G} (α^{2})$ and $G / [G, α^{2}]$ are abelian-by-finite. These results extend recent and classical results in...

On the derived length of units in group algebra

Dishari Chaudhuri, Anupam Saikia (2017)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

Let $G$ be a finite group $G$ , $K$ a field of characteristic $p \geq 17$ and let $U$ be the group of units in $K G$ . We show that if the derived length of $U$ does not exceed $4$ , then $G$ must be abelian.

The Roquette category of finite $p$ -groups

Serge Bouc (2015)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

Let $p$ be a prime number. This paper introduces the Roquette category $ℛ_{p}$ of finite $p$ -groups, which is an additive tensor category containing all finite $p$ -groups among its objects. In $ℛ_{p}$ , every finite $p$ -group $P$ admits a canonical direct summand $\partial P$ , called the edge of $P$ . Moreover $P$ splits uniquely as a direct sum of edges of Roquette $p$ -groups, and the tensor structure of $ℛ_{p}$ can be described in terms of such edges. The main motivation for considering this category is that the additive functors...

Permutability of centre-by-finite groups

Brunetto Piochi (1989)

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 $m$ be an integer greater than or equal to $2$ . $G$ is said to be $m$ -permutable if every product of $m$ elements can be reordered at least in one way. We prove that, if $G$ has a centre of finite index $z$ , then $G$ is $(1+[z/2])$ -permutable. More bounds are given on the least $m$ such that $G$ is $m$ -permutable.

A note on normal generation and generation of groups

Andreas Thom (2015)

Communications in Mathematics

Similarity:

In this note we study sets of normal generators of finitely presented residually $p$ -finite groups. We show that if an infinite, finitely presented, residually $p$ -finite group $G$ is normally generated by $g_{1}, \dots, g_{k}$ with order $n_{1}, \dots, n_{k} \in {1, 2, \dots} \cup {\infty}$ , then $β_{1}^{(2)} (G) \leq k - 1 - \sum_{i = 1}^{k} \frac{1}{n_{i}},$ where $β_{1}^{(2)} (G)$ denotes the first $ℓ^{2}$ -Betti number of $G$ . We also show that any $k$ -generated group with $β_{1}^{(2)} (G) \geq k - 1 - ε$ must have girth greater than or equal $1 / ε$ .

The Ribes-Zalesskii property of some one relator groups

Gilbert Mantika, Narcisse Temate-Tangang, Daniel Tieudjo (2022)

Archivum Mathematicum

Similarity:

The profinite topology on any abstract group $G$ , is one such that the fundamental system of neighborhoods of the identity is given by all its subgroups of finite index. We say that a group $G$ has the Ribes-Zalesskii property of rank $k$ , or is RZ $_{k}$ with $k$ a natural number, if any product $H_{1} H_{2} \dots H_{k}$ of finitely generated subgroups $H_{1}, H_{2}, \dots, H_{k}$ is closed in the profinite topology on $G$ . And a group is said to have the Ribes-Zalesskii property or is RZ if it is RZ $_{k}$ for any natural number $k$ . In this paper we characterize...
