On the WGSC Property in Some Classes of Groups

2009

The property of quasi-simple filtration (or qsf) for groups has been introduced in literature more than 10 years ago by S. Brick. This is equivalent, for groups, to the weak geometric simple connectivity (or wgsc). The main interest of these notions is that there is still not known whether all finitely presented groups are wgsc (qsf) or not. The present note deals with the wgsc property for solvable groups and generalized FC-groups. Moreover, a relation between the almost-convexity condition and the Tucker property, which is related to the wgsc property, has been considered for 3-manifold groups.

Functional calculi for convolution operators on a discrete, periodic, solvable group

2009

Suppose T is a bounded self-adjoint operator on the Hilbert space L2(X,μ) and let T=∫SpL2TλdE(λ) be its spectral resolution. Let F be a Borel bounded function on [−a,a], SpL2T⊂[−a,a]. We say that F is a spectral Lp-multiplier for T, if F(T)=∫SpL2TF(λ)dE(λ) is a bounded operator on Lp(X,μ). The paper deals with l1-multipliers, where X=G is a discrete (countable) solvable group with ∀x∈G, x4=1, μ is the counting measure and TΦ:l2(G)∋ξ↦ξ∗Φ∈l2(G), where Φ=Φ∗ is a l1(G) function, suppΦ generates G. The main result of the paper states that there exists a Ψ on G such that all l1-multipliers for TΨ are real analytic at every interior point of Spl2(G)TΨ. We also exhibit self-adjoint Φ′s in l1(G) suc…

Quadratic rational solvable groups

2012

Abstract A finite group G is quadratic rational if all its irreducible characters are either rational or quadratic. If G is a quadratic rational solvable group, we show that the prime divisors of | G | lie in { 2 , 3 , 5 , 7 , 13 } , and no prime can be removed from this list. More generally, if G is solvable and the field Q ( χ ) generated by the values of χ over Q satisfies | Q ( χ ) : Q | ⩽ k , for all χ ∈ Irr ( G ) , then the set of prime divisors of | G | is bounded in terms of k . Also, we prove that the degree of the field generated by the values of all characters of a semi-rational solvable group (see Chillag and Dolfi, 2010 [1] ) or a quadratic rational solvable group over Q is bou…

Some local properties defining $\mathcal T_0$-groups and related classes of groups

2016

We call $G$ a $\operatorname{Hall}_{\mathcal X}$-group if there exists a normal nilpotent subgroup $N$ of $G$ for which $G/N'$ is an ${\mathcal X}$-group. We call $G$ a ${\mathcal T}_0$-group provided $G/\Phi(G)$ is a ${\mathcal T}$-group, that is, one in which normality is a transitive relation. We present several new local classes of groups which locally define $\operatorname{Hall}_{\mathcal X}$-groups and ${\mathcal T}_0$-groups where ${\mathcal X}\in\{ {\mathcal T},\mathcal {PT},\mathcal {PST}\}$; the classes $\mathcal {PT}$ and $\mathcal {PST}$ denote, respectively, the classes of groups in which permutability and S-permutability are transitive relations.

Conjugacy classes, characters and products of elements

2019

Recently, Baumslag and Wiegold proved that a finite group $G$ is nilpotent if and only if $o(xy)=o(x)o(y)$ for every $x,y\in G$ of coprime order. Motivated by this result, we study the groups with the property that $(xy)^G=x^Gy^G$ and those with the property that $\chi(xy)=\chi(x)\chi(y)$ for every complex irreducible character $\chi$ of $G$ and every nontrivial $x, y \in G$ of pairwise coprime order. We also consider several ways of weakening the hypothesis on $x$ and $y$. While the result of Baumslag and Wiegold is completely elementary, some of our arguments here depend on (parts of) the classification of finite simple groups.

Mass, zero mass and ... nophysics

2017

In this paper we demonstrate that massless particles cannot be considered as limiting case of massive particles. Instead, the usual symmetry structure based on semisimple groups like $U(1)$, $SU(2)$ and $SU(3)$ has to be replaced by less usual solvable groups like the minimal nonabelian group ${\rm sol}_2$. Starting from the proper orthochronous Lorentz group ${\rm Lor}_{1,3}$ we extend Wigner's little group by an additional generator, obtaining the maximal solvable or Borel subgroup ${\rm Bor}_{1,3}$ which is equivalent to the Kronecker sum of two copies of ${\rm sol}_2$, telling something about the helicity of particle and antiparticle states.

Bases for induced characters

1996

AbstractIf G is a finite solvable group, we show that Isaacs' theory on partial characters on Hall π-subgroups can be developed for the nilpotent injectors of G. Therefore, the irreducible characters of G are partitioned into blocks associated to some nilpotent subgroups of G.

Permutable subnormal subgroups of finite groups

2009

The aim of this paper is to prove certain characterization theorems for groups in which permutability is a transitive relation, the so called PT -groups. In particular, it is shown that the finite solvable PT -groups, the finite solvable groups in which every subnormal subgroup of defect two is permutable, the finite solvable groups in which every normal subgroup is permutable sensitive, and the finite solvable groups in which conjugatepermutability and permutability coincide are all one and the same class. This follows from our main result which says that the finite modular p-groups, p a prime, are those p-groups in which every subnormal subgroup of defect two is permutable or, equivalentl…

An answer to a question of Isaacs on character degree graphs

2006

Abstract Let N be a normal subgroup of a finite group G. We consider the graph Γ ( G | N ) whose vertices are the prime divisors of the degrees of the irreducible characters of G whose kernel does not contain N and two vertices are joined by an edge if the product of the two primes divides the degree of some of the characters of G whose kernel does not contain N. We prove that if Γ ( G | N ) is disconnected then G / N is solvable. This proves a strong form of a conjecture of Isaacs.
