Generalized Braid Groups and Mapping Class Gropus

1997

Given a chord system of D2, we associate a generalized braid group, a surface and a homomorphism from this braid group to the mapping class group of the surface. We disprove a conjecture stated in an article by Perron and Vannier by showing that generally this homomorphism is not injective.

On Brauer’s Height Zero Conjecture

2014

In this paper, the unproven half of Richard Brauer’s Height Zero Conjecture is reduced to a question on simple groups.

Homogeneous products of characters

2004

I. M. Isaacs has conjectured (see \cite{isa00}) that if the product of two faithful irreducible characters of a solvable group is irreducible, then the group is cyclic. In this paper we prove a special case of the following conjecture, which generalizes Isaacs conjecture. Suppose that $G$ is solvable and that $\psi,\phi\in\Irr(G)$ are faithful. If $\psi \phi=m\chi$ where $m$ is a positive integer and $\chi \in \Irr(G)$ then $\psi$ and $\phi$ vanish on $G- Z(G)$. In particular we prove that the above conjecture holds for $p$-groups.

POLYNOMIAL GROWTH OF THE*-CODIMENSIONS AND YOUNG DIAGRAMS

2001

Let A be an algebra with involution * over a field F of characteristic zero and Id(A, *) the ideal of the free algebra with involution of *-identities of A. By means of the representation theory of the hyperoctahedral group Z 2wrS n we give a characterization of Id(A, *) in case the sequence of its *-codimensions is polynomially bounded. We also exhibit an algebra G 2 with the following distinguished property: the sequence of *-codimensions of Id(G 2, *) is not polynomially bounded but the *-codimensions of any T-ideal U properly containing Id(G 2, *) are polynomially bounded.

Product of nilpotent subgroups

2000

We will say that a subgroup X of G satisfies property C in G if \({\rm C}_{G}(X\cap X^{{g}})\leqq X\cap X^{{g}}\) for all \({g}\in G\). We obtain that if X is a nilpotent subgroup satisfying property C in G, then XF(G) is nilpotent. As consequence it follows that if \(N\triangleleft G\) is nilpotent and X is a nilpotent subgroup of G then \(C_G(N\cap X)\leqq X\) implies that NX is nilpotent.¶We investigate the relationship between the maximal nilpotent subgroups satisfying property C and the nilpotent injectors in a finite group.

Polynomial Identities of Algebras of Small Dimension

2009

It is well known that given an associative algebra or a Lie algebra A, its codimension sequence c n (A) is either polynomially bounded or grows at least as fast as 2 n . In [2] we proved that for a finite dimensional (in general nonassociative) algebra A, dim A = d, the sequence c n (A) is also polynomially bounded or c n (A) ≥ a n asymptotically, for some real number a > 1 which might be less than 2. Nevertheless, for d = 2, we may take a = 2. Here we prove that for d = 3 the same conclusion holds. We also construct a five-dimensional algebra A with c n (A) < 2 n .

Group-graded algebras with polynomial identity

1998

LetG be a finite group and letR=Σg∈GRg be any associative algebra over a field such that the subspacesRg satisfyRgRh⊆Rgh. We prove that ifR1 satisfies a PI of degreed, thenR satisfies a PI of degree bounded by an explicit function ofd and the order ofG. This result implies the following: ifH is a finite-dimensional semisimple commutative Hopfalgebra andR is anyH-module algebra withRH satisfying a PI of degreed, thenR satisfies a PI of degree bounded by an explicit function ofd and the dimension ofH.

p-Parts of Brauer character degrees

2014

Abstract Let G be a finite group and let p be an odd prime. Under certain conditions on the p-parts of the degrees of its irreducible p-Brauer characters, we prove the solvability of G. As a consequence, we answer a question proposed by B. Huppert in 1991: If G has exactly two distinct irreducible p-Brauer character degrees, then is G solvable? We also determine the structure of non-solvable groups with exactly two irreducible 2-Brauer character degrees.

The McKay conjecture and Galois automorphisms

2004

The main problem of representation theory of finite groups is to find proofs of several conjectures stating that certain global invariants of a finite group G can be computed locally. The simplest of these conjectures is the ?McKay conjecture? which asserts that the number of irreducible complex characters of G of degree not divisible by p is the same if computed in a p-Sylow normalizer of G. In this paper, we propose a much stronger version of this conjecture which deals with Galois automorphisms. In fact, the same idea can be applied to the celebrated Alperin and Dade conjectures.
