Real groups and Sylow 2-subgroups
2016
Abstract If G is a finite real group and P ∈ Syl 2 ( G ) , then P / P ′ is elementary abelian. This confirms a conjecture of Roderick Gow. In fact, we prove a much stronger result that implies Gow's conjecture.
Coupled fixed point, F-invariant set and fixed point of N-order
2010
In this paper, we establish some new coupled fixed point theorems in complete metric spaces, using a new concept of $F$-invariant set. We introduce the notion of fixed point of $N$-order as natural extension of that of coupled fixed point. As applications, we discuss and adapt the presented results to the setting of partially ordered cone metric spaces. The presented results extend and complement some known existence results from the literature.
Lagrangians, Hamiltonians and Noether’s Theorem
2015
This chapter is intended to remind the basic notions of the Lagrangian and Hamiltonian formalisms as well as Noether’s theorem. We shall first start with a discrete system with N degrees of freedom, state and prove Noether’s theorem. Afterwards we shall generalize all the previously introduced notions to continuous systems and prove the generic formulation of Noether’s Theorem. Finally we will reproduce a few well known results in Quantum Field Theory.
Generalized Lebesgue points for Sobolev functions
2017
In this article, we show that a function $f\in M^{s,p}(X),$ $0<s\leq 1,$ $0<p<1,$ where $X$ is a doubling metric measure space, has generalized Lebesgue points outside a set of $\mathcal{H}^h$-Hausdorff measure zero for a suitable gauge function $h.$
A Pedagogical Proof of Arrow's Impossibility Theorem
1999
In this note I consider a simple proof of Arrow's Impossibility Theorem (Arrow 1963). I start with the case of three individuals who have preferences on three alternatives. In this special case there are 133=2197 possible combinations of the three individuals' rational preferences. However, by considering the subset of linear preferences, and employing the full strength of the IIA axiom, I reduce the number of cases necessary to completely describe the SWF to a small number, allowing an elementary proof suitable for most undergraduate students. This special case conveys the nature of Arrow's result. It is well known that the restriction to three options is not really limiting (any larger se…
Sobolev embeddings, extensions and measure density condition
2008
AbstractThere are two main results in the paper. In the first one, Theorem 1, we prove that if the Sobolev embedding theorem holds in Ω, in any of all the possible cases, then Ω satisfies the measure density condition. The second main result, Theorem 5, provides several characterizations of the Wm,p-extension domains for 1<p<∞. As a corollary we prove that the property of being a W1,p-extension domain, 1<p⩽∞, is invariant under bi-Lipschitz mappings, Theorem 8.
Character sums and double cosets
2008
Abstract If G is a p-solvable finite group, P is a self-normalizing Sylow p-subgroup of G with derived subgroup P ′ , and Ψ is the sum of all the irreducible characters of G of degree not divisible by p, then we prove that the integer Ψ ( P ′ z P ′ ) is divisible by | P | for all z ∈ G . This answers a question of J. Alperin.
McKay natural correspondences on characters
2014
Let [math] be a finite group, let [math] be an odd prime, and let [math] . If [math] , then there is a canonical correspondence between the irreducible complex characters of [math] of degree not divisible by [math] belonging to the principal block of [math] and the linear characters of [math] . As a consequence, we give a characterization of finite groups that possess a self-normalizing Sylow [math] -subgroup or a [math] -decomposable Sylow normalizer.
A note on a result of Guo and Isaacs about p-supersolubility of finite groups
2016
In this note, global information about a finite group is obtained by assuming that certain subgroups of some given order are S-semipermutable. Recall that a subgroup H of a finite group G is said to be S-semipermutable if H permutes with all Sylow subgroups of G of order coprime to . We prove that for a fixed prime p, a given Sylow p-subgroup P of a finite group G, and a power d of p dividing such that , if is S-semipermutable in for all normal subgroups H of P with , then either G is p-supersoluble or else . This extends the main result of Guo and Isaacs in (Arch. Math. 105:215-222 2015). We derive some theorems that extend some known results concerning S-semipermutable subgroups.
On the orders of zeros of irreducible characters
2009
Let G be a finite group and p a prime number. We say that an element g in G is a vanishing element of G if there exists an irreducible character χ of G such that χ (g) = 0. The main result of this paper shows that, if G does not have any vanishing element of p-power order, then G has a normal Sylow p-subgroup. Also, we prove that this result is a generalization of some classical theorems in Character Theory of finite groups. © 2008 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
