Algorithms for permutability in finite groups

Adolfo Ballester-Bolinches, Enric Cosme-Llópez, Ramón Esteban-Romero (2013)

Open Mathematics

In this paper we describe some algorithms to identify permutable and Sylow-permutable subgroups of finite groups, Dedekind and Iwasawa finite groups, and finite T-groups (groups in which normality is transitive), PT-groups (groups in which permutability is transitive), and PST-groups (groups in which Sylow permutability is transitive). These algorithms have been implemented in a package for the computer algebra system GAP.

All CAT(0) boundaries of a group of the form H × K are CE equivalent

Christopher Mooney (2009)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

M. Bestvina has shown that for any given torsion-free CAT(0) group G, all of its boundaries are shape equivalent. He then posed the question of whether they satisfy the stronger condition of being cell-like equivalent. In this article we prove that the answer is "Yes" in the situation where the group in question splits as a direct product with infinite factors. We accomplish this by proving an interesting theorem in shape theory.

All completely regular elements in H y p G ( n )

Ampika Boonmee, Sorasak Leeratanavalee (2013)

Discussiones Mathematicae - General Algebra and Applications

In Universal Algebra, identities are used to classify algebras into collections, called varieties and hyperidentities are use to classify varieties into collections, called hypervarities. The concept of a hypersubstitution is a tool to study hyperidentities and hypervarieties. Generalized hypersubstitutions and strong identities generalize the concepts of a hypersubstitution and of a hyperidentity, respectively. The set of all generalized hypersubstitutions forms a monoid. In...

Almost all one-relator groups with at least three generators are residually finite

Mark V. Sapir, Iva Špakulová (2011)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

We prove that with probability tending to 1, a one-relator group with at least three generators and the relator of length n is residually finite, is a virtually residually (finite p -)group for all sufficiently large p , and is coherent. The proof uses both combinatorial group theory and non-trivial results about Brownian motions.

Almost associative operations generating a minimal clone

Tamás Waldhauser (2006)

Discussiones Mathematicae - General Algebra and Applications

Characterizations of 'almost associative' binary operations generating a minimal clone are given for two interpretations of the term 'almost associative'. One of them uses the associative spectrum, the other one uses the index of nonassociativity to measure how far an operation is from being associative.

Almost Butler groups

Ladislav Bican (2000)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Generalizing the notion of the almost free group we introduce almost Butler groups. An almost B 2 -group G of singular cardinality is a B 2 -group. Since almost B 2 -groups have preseparative chains, the same result in regular cardinality holds under the additional hypothesis that G is a B 1 -group. Some other results characterizing B 2 -groups within the classes of almost B 1 -groups and almost B 2 -groups are obtained. A theorem of stating that a group G of weakly compact cardinality λ having a λ -filtration consisting...

Almost coproducts of finite cyclic groups

Paul Hill (1995)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

A new class of p -primary abelian groups that are Hausdorff in the p -adic topology and that generalize direct sums of cyclic groups are studied. We call this new class of groups almost coproducts of cyclic groups. These groups are defined in terms of a modified axiom 3 system, and it is observed that such groups appear naturally. For example, V ( G ) / G is almost a coproduct of finite cyclic groups whenever G is a Hausdorff p -primary group and V ( G ) is the group of normalized units of the modular group algebra...
