The Jacobson radical of edomorphism rings of totally projective groups of finite type.
Let G be a group with all subgroups subnormal. A normal subgroup N of G is said to be G-minimax if it has a finite G-invariant series whose factors are abelian and satisfy either max-G or min- G. It is proved that if the normal closure of every element of G is G-minimax then G is nilpotent and the normal closure of every element is minimax. Further results of this type are also obtained.
This note presents the study of the conjugacy classes of elements of some given finite order in the Cremona group of the plane. In particular, it is shown that the number of conjugacy classes is infinite if is even, or , and that it is equal to (respectively ) if (respectively if ) and to for all remaining odd orders. Some precise representative elements of the classes are given.
For Γ a group of finite virtual cohomological dimension and a prime p, the p-period of Γ is defined to be the least positive integer d such that Farrell cohomology groups Hi(Γ; M) and Hi+d(Γ; M) have naturally isomorphic ZΓ modules M.We generalize a result of Swan on the p-period of a finite p-periodic group to a p-periodic infinite group, i.e., we prove that the p-period of a p-periodic group Γ of finite vcd is 2LCM(|N(〈x〉) / C(〈x〉)|) if the Γ has a finite quotient whose a p-Sylow subgroup is elementary...
