The notion of Cayley color graphs of groups is generalized to inverse semigroups and groupoids. The set of partial automorphisms of the Cayley color graph of an inverse semigroup or a groupoid is isomorphic to the original inverse semigroup or groupoid. The groupoid of color permuting partial automorphisms of the Cayley color graph of a transitive groupoid is isomorphic to the original groupoid.
The article formalizes the Cayley's theorem saying that every group G is isomorphic to a subgroup of the symmetric group on G.
In this paper we improve recent results dealing with cellular covers of R-modules. Cellular covers (sometimes called colocalizations) come up in the context of homotopical localization of topological spaces. They are related to idempotent cotriples, idempotent comonads or coreflectors in category theory. Recall that a homomorphism of R-modules π: G → H is called a cellular cover over H if π induces an isomorphism , where π⁎(φ) = πφ for each (where maps are acting on the left). On the one hand,...
We prove that the type factor generated by the regular representation of is isomorphic to its tensor product with the hyperfinite type factor. This implies that the unitary group of is contractible with respect to the topology defined by the natural Hilbertian norm.
A finite group G is called a gap group if there exists an ℝG-module which has no large isotropy groups except at zero and satisfies the gap condition. The gap condition facilitates the process of equivariant surgery. Many groups are gap groups and also many groups are not. In this paper, we clarify the relation between a gap group and the structures of its centralizers. We show that a nonsolvable group which has a normal, odd prime power index proper subgroup is a gap group.
