The arise of disagreement is an emergent phenomenon that can be observed within a growing social group and, beyond a certain threshold, can lead to group fragmentation. To better understand how disagreement emerges, we introduce an analytically tractable m ...
E. E. Floyd showed in 1973 that there exist only two nontrivial cobor-dism classes that contain manifolds with three cells, and that they lie in dimen-sions 10 and 5. We prove that there is an action of the cyclic group C2 on the 10-dimensional Floyd manif ...
We prove the bigness of the Chow-Mumford line bundle associated to a Q-Gorenstein family of log Fano varieties of maximal variation with uniformly K-stable general geometric fibers. This result generalizes a theorem of Codogni and Patakfalvi to the logarit ...
The recently introduced polar codes constitute a breakthrough in coding theory due to their capacity-achieving property. This goes hand in hand with a quasilinear construction, encoding, and successive cancellation list decoding procedures based on the Plo ...
We show that the finitely generated simple left orderable groups G(rho) constructed by the first two authors in Hyde and Lodha [Finitely generated infinite simple groups of homeomorphisms of the real line. Invent. Math. (2019), doi:10.1007/s00222-01900880- ...
For the group of endo-permutation modules of a finite p-group, there is a surjective reduction homomorphism from a complete discrete valuation ring of characteristic 0 to its residue field of characteristic p. We prove that this reduction map always has a ...
It is well-known that a finite group possesses a universal central extension if and only if it is a perfect group. Similarly, given a prime number p, we show that a finite group possesses a universal p′-central extension if and only if the p′-part of its a ...
We prove that a closed subgroup H of a locally compact group G is a set of p-uniqueness (1 < p < infinity) if and only if H is locally negligible. We also obtain the inverse projection theorem for sets of p-uniqueness. ...
Nowadays, one area of research in cryptanalysis is solving the Discrete Logarithm Problem (DLP) in finite groups whose group representation is not yet exploited. For such groups, the best one can do is using a generic method to attack the DLP, the fastest ...
Let G be a finite group and (K, O, k) be a p-modular system. Let R = O or k. There is a bijection between the blocks of the group algebra and the blocks of the so-called p-local Mackey algebra mu(1)(R)(G). Let b be a block of RG with abelian defect group D ...
Let G be a finite group and R be a commutative ring. The Mackey algebra μR(G) shares a lot of properties with the group algebra RG however, there are some differences. For example, the group algebra is a symmetric algebra and this is not always the case fo ...
Let G be a finite group and let T(G) be the abelian group of equivalence classes of endotrivial kG-modules, where k is an algebraically closed field of characteristic p. We determine, in terms of the structure of G, the kernel of the restriction map from T ...
We provide characterizations of p-nilpotency for fusion systems and p-local finite groups that are inspired by known result for finite groups. In particular, we generalize criteria by Atiyah, Brunetti, Frobenius, Quillen, Stammbach and Tate. ...
Atherosclerosis is the commonest and most important vascular disease. Andrographolide (AND) is the main bioactive component of the medicinal plant Andrographis paniculata and is used in traditional medicine. This study was aimed to evaluate the antiatherog ...
We survey the mixing patterns which can be derived from the discrete groups Sigma(36 x 3), Sigma( 72 x 3), Sigma(216 x 3) and Sigma(360 x 3), if these are broken to Abelian subgroups G(e) and G(nu) in the charged lepton and neutrino sector, respectively. S ...
Let G be a finite group with a Sylow 2-subgroup P which is either quaternion or semi-dihedral. Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic 2. We prove the existence of exotic endotrivial kG-modules, whose restrictions to P are isomorphic to th ...
The aim of this paper is to construct an equivalent of the Dade group of a p-group for an arbitrary finite group G, whose elements are equivalences classes of endo-p-permutation modules. To achieve this goal we use the theory of relative projectivity with ...
Is the cohomology of the classifying space of a p-compact group, with Noetherian twisted coefficients, a Noetherian module? In this paper we provide, over the ring of p-adic integers, such a generalization to p-compact groups of the Evens-Venkov Theorem. W ...
This dissertation is concerned with modular representation theory of finite groups, and more precisely, with the study of classes of representations, which we shall term relative endotrivial modules. Given a prime number p, a finite group G of order divisi ...
Let G be a finite group and let R be a commutative ring. We analyse the (G,G)-bisets which stabilize an indecomposable RG-module. We prove that the minimal ones are unique up to equivalence. This result has the same flavor as the uniqueness of vertices and ...
