Commutators and associators in Catalan loops

Jan M. Raasch (2010)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Various commutators and associators may be defined in one-sided loops. In this paper, we approximate and compare these objects in the left and right loop reducts of a Catalan loop. To within a certain order of approximation, they turn out to be quite symmetrical. Using the general analysis of commutators and associators, we investigate the structure of a specific Catalan loop which is non-commutative, but associative, that appears in the original number-theoretic application of Catalan loops.

Connected transversals -- the Zassenhaus case

Tomáš Kepka, Petr Němec (2000)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

In this short note, it is shown that if A , B are H -connected transversals for a finite subgroup H of an infinite group G such that the index of H in G is at least 3 and H H u H v = 1 whenever u , v G H and u v - 1 G H then A = B is a normal abelian subgroup of G .
