On Parabolic Subgroups and Hecke Algebras of some Fractal Groups

Bartholdi, Laurent, Grigorchuk, Rostislav (2002)

Serdica Mathematical Journal

* The authors thank the “Swiss National Science Foundation” for its support.We study the subgroup structure, Hecke algebras, quasi-regular representations, and asymptotic properties of some fractal groups of branch type. We introduce parabolic subgroups, show that they are weakly maximal, and that the corresponding quasi-regular representations are irreducible. These (infinite-dimensional) representations are approximated by finite-dimensional quasi-regular representations. The Hecke algebras...

On residually finite groups and their generalizations

Andrzej Strojnowski (1999)

Colloquium Mathematicae

The paper is concerned with the class of groups satisfying the finite embedding (FE) property. This is a generalization of residually finite groups. In [2] it was asked whether there exist FE-groups which are not residually finite. Here we present such examples. To do this, we construct a family of three-generator soluble FE-groups with torsion-free abelian factors. We study necessary and sufficient conditions for groups from this class to be residually finite. This answers the questions asked in...

On S -quasinormal and c -normal subgroups of a finite group

Shirong Li, Yangming Li (2008)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Let be a saturated formation containing the class of supersolvable groups and let G be a finite group. The following theorems are presented: (1) G if and only if there is a normal subgroup H such that G / H and every maximal subgroup of all Sylow subgroups of H is either c -normal or S -quasinormally embedded in G . (2) G if and only if there is a normal subgroup H such that G / H and every maximal subgroup of all Sylow subgroups of F * ( H ) , the generalized Fitting subgroup of H , is either c -normal or S -quasinormally...

On semisimple classes and semisimple characters in finite reductive groups

Olivier Brunat (2012)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

In this article, we study the elements with disconnected centralizer in the Brauer complex associated to a simple algebraic group G defined over a finite field with corresponding Frobenius map F and derive the number of F -stable semisimple classes of G with disconnected centralizer when the order of the fundamental group has prime order. We also discuss extendibility of semisimple characters of the fixed point subgroup G F to their inertia group in the full automorphism group. As a consequence, we...
