On centrally nilpotent loops

L. V. Safonova, K. K. Shchukin (2000)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Using a lemma on subnormal subgroups, the problem of nilpotency of multiplication groups and inner permutation groups of centrally nilpotent loops is discussed.

On computing quaternion quotient graphs for function fields

Gebhard Böckle, Ralf Butenuth (2012)

Journal de Théorie des Nombres de Bordeaux

Let Λ be a maximal 𝔽 q [ T ] -order in a division quaternion algebra over 𝔽 q ( T ) which is split at the place . The present article gives an algorithm to compute a fundamental domain for the action of the group of units Λ * on the Bruhat-Tits tree 𝒯 associated to PGL 2 ( 𝔽 q ( ( 1 / T ) ) ) . This action is a function field analog of the action of a co-compact Fuchsian group on the upper half plane. The algorithm also yields an explicit presentation of the group Λ * in terms of generators and relations. Moreover we determine an upper bound...

On congruence permutable G -sets

Attila Nagy (2020)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

An algebraic structure is said to be congruence permutable if its arbitrary congruences α and β satisfy the equation α β = β α , where denotes the usual composition of binary relations. To an arbitrary G -set X satisfying G X = , we assign a semigroup ( G , X , 0 ) on the base set G X { 0 } containing a zero element 0 G X , and examine the connection between the congruence permutability of the G -set X and the semigroup ( G , X , 0 ) .

On connectedness of graphs on direct product of Weyl groups

Samy A. Youssef, S. G. Hulsurkar (1995)

Archivum Mathematicum

In this paper, we have studied the connectedness of the graphs on the direct product of the Weyl groups. We have shown that the number of the connected components of the graph on the direct product of the Weyl groups is equal to the product of the numbers of the connected components of the graphs on the factors of the direct product. In particular, we show that the graph on the direct product of the Weyl groups is connected iff the graph on each factor of the direct product is connected.

On decomposability of finite groups

Ruifang Chen, Xianhe Zhao (2017)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Let G be a finite group. A normal subgroup N of G is a union of several G -conjugacy classes, and it is called n -decomposable in G if it is a union of n distinct G -conjugacy classes. In this paper, we first classify finite non-perfect groups satisfying the condition that the numbers of conjugacy classes contained in its non-trivial normal subgroups are two consecutive positive integers, and we later prove that there is no non-perfect group such that the numbers of conjugacy classes contained in its...

On exponential growth rates for free groups.

Malik Koubi (1998)

Publicacions Matemàtiques

Let Fp be a free group of rank p ≥ 2. It is well-known that, with respect to a p-element generating set, that is, a basis, the exponential growth rate of Fp is 2p-1. We show that the exponential growth rate τ of a group G with respect to a p-element generating set X is 2p-1 if and only if G is free on X; otherwise τ < 2p-1. We also prove that, for any finite generating set X of Fp which is disjoint from X-1, the exponential growth rate τ of Fp with respect to X is 2p-1 if and only if X is...
