A Short Proof of a Theorem of Burns.
A simple proof is given of a well-known result of the existance of lattice-isomorphisms between locally nilpotent quaternionfree modular groups and abelian groups.
We relate some features of Bruhat-Tits buildings and their compactifications to tropical geometry. If G is a semisimple group over a suitable non-Archimedean field, the stabilizers of points in the Bruhat-Tits building of G and in some of its compactifications are described by tropical linear algebra. The compactifications we consider arise from algebraic representations of G. We show that the fan which is used to compactify an apartment in this theory is given by the weight polytope of the representation...
In this article we prove an effective version of the classical Brauer’s Theorem for integer class functions on finite groups.
We give a simple proof of a result of R. Rochberg and M. H. Taibleson that various maximal operators on a homogeneous tree, including the Hardy-Littlewood and spherical maximal operators, are of weak type (1,1). This result extends to corresponding maximal operators on a transitive group of isometries of the tree, and in particular for (nonabelian finitely generated) free groups.
The notions of nearly-maximal and near Frattini subgroups considered by J.B. Riles in [20] and the natural related notions are characterized for abelian groups.
Let be any group and let be an abelian quasinormal subgroup of . If is any positive integer, either odd or divisible by , then we prove that the subgroup is also quasinormal in .
