Groups with the Minimal Condition on Non-“Nilpotent-by-Finite” Subgroups

We characterize the groups which do not have non-trivial perfect sections and such that any strictly descending chain of non-“nilpotent-by-finite” subgroups is finite.

The Interval [0,1] Admits no Functorial Embedding into a Finite-Dimensional or Metrizable Topological Group

An embedding X ⊂ G of a topological space X into a topological group G is called functorial if every homeomorphism of X extends to a continuous group homomorphism of G. It is shown that the interval [0, 1] admits no functorial embedding into a finite-dimensional or metrizable topological group.

Isomorphism of Commutative Group Algebras of Finite Abelian Groups

Let a commutative ring R be a direct product of indecomposable rings with identity and let G be a finite abelian p-group. In the present paper we give a complete system of invariants of the group algebra RG of G over R when p is an invertible element in R. These investigations extend some classical results of Berman (1953 and 1958), Sehgal (1970) and Karpilovsky (1984) as well as a result of Mollov (1986).

On some Finite-Dimensional Representations of Artin Braid Group

Валентин В. Илиев - Авторът изучава някои хомоморфни образи G на групата на Артин на плитките върху n нишки в крайни симетрични групи. Получените пермутационни групи G са разширения на симетричната група върху n букви чрез подходяща абелева група. Разширенията G зависят от един целочислен параметър q ≥ 1 и се разцепват тогава и само тогава, когато 4 не дели q. В случая на нечетно q са намерени всички крайномерни неприводими представяния на G, а те от своя страна генерират безкрайна редица от неприводими представяния на групата на плитките.

On Projective Plane of Order 13 with a Frobenius Group of Order 39 as a Collineation Group

One of the most outstanding problems in combinatorial mathematics and geometry is the problem of existence of finite projective planes whose order is not a prime power.

The Automorphism Group of the Free Algebra of Rank Two

The theorem of Czerniakiewicz and Makar-Limanov, that all the automorphisms of a free algebra of rank two are tame is proved here by showing that the group of these automorphisms is the free product of two groups (amalgamating their intersection), the group of all affine automorphisms and the group of all triangular automorphisms. The method consists in finding a bipolar structure. As a consequence every finite subgroup of automorphisms (in characteristic zero) is shown to be conjugate to a group of linear automorphisms.

Algorithms for Generating Near-Rings on Finite Cyclic Groups

In the present work are described the algorithms that generate all near-rings on finite cyclic groups of order 16 to 29.
