Almost polynomial growth: Classifying varieties of graded algebras
2015
Let G be a finite group, V a variety of associative G-graded algebras and c (V), n = 1, 2, …, its sequence of graded codimensions. It was recently shown by Valenti that such a sequence is polynomially bounded if and only if V does not contain a finite list of G-graded algebras. The list consists of group algebras of groups of order a prime number, the infinite-dimensional Grassmann algebra and the algebra of 2 × 2 upper triangular matrices with suitable gradings. Such algebras generate the only varieties of G-graded algebras of almost polynomial growth, i.e., varieties of exponential growth such that any proper subvariety is polynomially bounded. In this paper we completely classify all sub…
Degrees of rational characters of finite groups
2010
Abstract A classical theorem of John Thompson on character degrees states that if the degree of any complex irreducible character of a finite group G is 1 or divisible by a prime p, then G has a normal p-complement. In this paper, we consider fields of values of characters and prove some improvements of this result.
Gradings on the algebra of upper triangular matrices and their graded identities
2004
Abstract Let K be an infinite field and let UT n ( K ) denote the algebra of n × n upper triangular matrices over K . We describe all elementary gradings on this algebra. Further we describe the generators of the ideals of graded polynomial identities of UT n ( K ) and we produce linear bases of the corresponding relatively free graded algebras. We prove that one can distinguish the elementary gradings by their graded identities. We describe bases of the graded polynomial identities in several “typical” cases. Although in these cases we consider elementary gradings by cyclic groups, the same methods serve for elementary gradings by any finite group.
On irreducible products of characters
2021
Abstract We study the problem when the product of two non-linear Galois conjugate characters of a finite group is irreducible. We also prove new results on irreducible tensor products of cross-characteristic Brauer characters of quasisimple groups of Lie type.
Irreducible restriction and zeros of characters
2000
Let G be a finite group, let N be normal in G and suppose that X is an irreducible complex character of G. Then XN is not irreducible if and only if X vanishes on some coset of N in G.
A question from the Kourovka Notebook on formation products
2003
[EN] It is shown in this paper that if X is a class of simple groups such that pi(X) = char X, the X-saturated formation H generated by a finite group cannot be expressed as the Gaschütz product F o G of two non-X-saturated formations if H = G. It answers some open questions on products of formations. The relation between omega-saturated and X-saturated formations is also discussed.
Triple Factorizations and Supersolubility of Finite Groups
2015
AbstractIn this paper we analyse the structure of a finite group of minimal order among the finite non-supersoluble groups possessing a triple factorization by supersoluble subgroups of pairwise relatively prime indices. As an application we obtain some sufficient conditions for a triple factorized group by supersoluble subgroups of pairwise relatively prime indices to be supersoluble. Many results appear as consequences of our analysis.
FINITE TRIFACTORISED GROUPS AND -DECOMPOSABILITY
2018
We derive some structural properties of a trifactorised finite group $G=AB=AC=BC$, where $A$, $B$, and $C$ are subgroups of $G$, provided that $A=A_{\unicode[STIX]{x1D70B}}\times A_{\unicode[STIX]{x1D70B}^{\prime }}$ and $B=B_{\unicode[STIX]{x1D70B}}\times B_{\unicode[STIX]{x1D70B}^{\prime }}$ are $\unicode[STIX]{x1D70B}$-decomposable groups, for a set of primes $\unicode[STIX]{x1D70B}$.
Notes on the average number of Sylow subgroups of finite groups
2021
We show that if the average number of (nonnormal) Sylow subgroups of a finite group is less than $${{29} \over 4}$$ then G is solvable or G/F(G) ≌ A5. This generalizes an earlier result by the third author.
Finite groups with real-valued irreducible characters of prime degree
2008
Abstract In this paper we describe the structure of finite groups whose real-valued nonlinear irreducible characters have all prime degree. The more general situation in which the real-valued irreducible characters of a finite group have all squarefree degree is also considered.
