On the number of isomorphism classes of derived subgroups

Leyli Jafari Taghvasani, Soran Marzang, Mohammad Zarrin (2019)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

We show that a finite nonabelian characteristically simple group G satisfies n = | π ( G ) | + 2 if and only if G A 5 , where n is the number of isomorphism classes of derived subgroups of G and π ( G ) is the set of prime divisors of the group G . Also, we give a negative answer to a question raised in M. Zarrin (2014).

On the representation theory of braid groups

Ivan Marin (2013)

Annales mathématiques Blaise Pascal

This work presents an approach towards the representation theory of the braid groups B n . We focus on finite-dimensional representations over the field of Laurent series which can be obtained from representations of infinitesimal braids, with the help of Drinfeld associators. We set a dictionary between representation-theoretic properties of these two structures, and tools to describe the representations thus obtained. We give an explanation for the frequent apparition of unitary structures on classical...

On the structural theory of  II 1 factors of negatively curved groups

Ionut Chifan, Thomas Sinclair (2013)

Annales scientifiques de l'École Normale Supérieure

Ozawa showed in [21] that for any i.c.c. hyperbolic group, the associated group factor L Γ is solid. Developing a new approach that combines some methods of Peterson [29], Ozawa and Popa [27, 28], and Ozawa [25], we strengthen this result by showing that L Γ is strongly solid. Using our methods in cooperation with a cocycle superrigidity result of Ioana [12], we show that profinite actions of lattices in  Sp ( n , 1 ) , n 2 , are virtually W * -superrigid.

On the structure of finite loop capable nilpotent groups

Miikka Rytty (2010)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

In this paper we consider finite loops and discuss the problem which nilpotent groups are isomorphic to the inner mapping group of a loop. We recall some earlier results and by using connected transversals we transform the problem into a group theoretical one. We will get some new answers as we show that a nilpotent group having either C p k × C p l , k > l 0 as the Sylow p -subgroup for some odd prime p or the group of quaternions as the Sylow 2 -subgroup may not be loop capable.

On the structure of groups whose non-abelian subgroups are subnormal

Leonid Kurdachenko, Sevgi Atlıhan, Nikolaj Semko (2014)

Open Mathematics

The main aim of this article is to examine infinite groups whose non-abelian subgroups are subnormal. In this sense we obtain here description of such locally finite groups and, as a consequence we show several results related to such groups.
