Let A be a finitely generated abelian group. We describe the automorphism group Aut(A) using the rank of A and its torsion part p-part A(p). For a finite abelian p-group A of type (k(1),..., k(n)), simple necessary and sufficient conditions for an n x n-matrix over integers to be associated with an automorphism of A are presented. Then, the automorphism group Aut(A) for a finite p-group A of type (k(1), k(2)) is analyzed. (C) 2008 Mathematical Institute Slovak Academy of Sciences.

In this work we make some contributions to the theory of actions of abelian p-groups on the n-Torus T-n. Set congruent to Z(pk1)(h1) x Z(pk2)(h2) x...x Z(pkr)(hr), r >= 1, k(1) >= k(2) >=...>= k(r) >= 1, p prime. Suppose that the group H acts freely on T-n and the induced representation on pi(1)(T-n) congruent to Z(n) is faithful and has first Betti number b. We show that the numbers n, p, b, k(i) and h(i) (i = 1,..,r) satisfy some relation. In particular, when H congruent to Z(p)(h), the minimum value of n is phi(p) + b when b >= 1. Also when H congruent to Z(pk1) x Z(p) the minimum value of n is phi(p(k1)) + p - 1 + b for b >= 1. Here phi denotes the Euler function.

Let D( m, n; k) be the semi-direct product of two finite cyclic groups Z/m = < x > and Z/n = < y >, where the action is given by yxy(-1) = x(k). In particular, this includes the dihedral groups D(2m). We calculate the automorphism group Aut (D(m, n; k)).

In this thesis we study the invariant rings for the Sylow p-subgroups of the nite classical groups. We have successfully constructed presentations for the invariant rings for the Sylow p-subgroups of the unitary groups GU(3; Fq2) and GU(4; Fq2 ), the symplectic group Sp(4; Fq) and the orthogonal group O+(4; Fq) with q odd. In all cases, we obtained a minimal generating set which is also a SAGBI basis. Moreover, we computed the relations among the generators and showed that the invariant ring for these groups are a complete intersection. This shows that, even though the invariant rings of the Sylow p-subgroups of the general linear group are polynomial, the same is not true for Sylow p-subgroups of general classical groups. We also constructed the generators for the invariant elds for the Sylow p-subgroups of GU(n; Fq2 ), Sp(2n; Fq), O+(2n; Fq), O-(2n + 2; Fq) and O(2n + 1; Fq), for every n and q. This is an important step in order to obtain the generators and relations for the invariant rings of all these groups.

Eine Gruppe G hat endlichen Prüferrang (bzw. Ko-zentralrang) kleiner gleich r, wenn für jede endlich erzeugte Gruppe H gilt: H (bzw. H modulo seinem Zentrum) ist r-erzeugbar. In der vorliegenden Arbeit werden, soweit möglich, die bekannten Sätze über Gruppen von endlichem Prüferrang (kurz X-Gruppen), auf die wesentlich größere Klasse der Gruppen mit endlichem Ko-zentralrang (kurz R-Gruppen) verallgemeinert.Für lokal nilpotente R-Gruppen, welche torsionsfrei oder p-Gruppen sind, wird gezeigt, dass die Zentrumsfaktorgruppe eine X-Gruppe sein muss. Es folgt, dass Hyperzentralität und lokale Nilpotenz für R-Gruppen identische Bediungungen sind. Analog hierzu sind R-Gruppen genau dann lokal auflösbar, wenn sie hyperabelsch sind. Zentral für die Strukturtheorie hyperabelscher R-Gruppen ist die Tatsache, dass solche Gruppen eine aufsteigende Normalreihe abelscher X-Gruppen besitzen. Es wird eine Sylowtheorie für periodische hyperabelsche R-Gruppen entwickelt. Für torsionsfreie hyperabelsche R-Gruppen wird deren Auflösbarkeit bewiesen. Des weiteren sind lokal endliche R-Gruppen fast hyperabelsch. Für R-Gruppen fallen sehr große Gruppenklassen mit den fast hyperabelschen Gruppen zusammen. Hierzu wird der Begriff der Sektionsüberdeckung eingeführt und gezeigt, dass R-Gruppen mit fast hyperabelscher Sektionsüberdeckung fast hyperabelsch sind.

Groups preserving a distributive product are encountered often in algebra. Examples include automorphism groups of associative and nonassociative rings, classical groups, and automorphism groups of p-groups. While the great variety of such products precludes any realistic hope of describing the general structure of the groups that preserve them, it is reasonable to expect that insight may be gained from an examination of the universal distributive products: tensor products. We give a detailed description of the groups preserving tensor products over semisimple and semiprimary rings, and present effective algorithms to construct generators for these groups. We also discuss applications of our methods to algorithmic problems for which all currently known methods require an exponential amount of work. (C) 2013 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

The electro-oxidation of carbon materials enormously degrades their performance and limits their wider utilization in multiple electrochemical applications. In this work, the positive influence of phosphorus functionalities on the overall electrochemical stability of carbon materials has been demonstrated under different conditions. We show that the extent and selectivity of electroxidation in P-containing carbons are completely different to those observed in conventional carbons without P. The electro-oxidation of P-containing carbons involves the active participation of phosphorus surface groups, which are gradually transformed at high potentials from less-to more-oxidized species to slow down the introduction of oxygen groups on the carbon surface (oxidation) and the subsequent generation of (C*OOH)-like unstable promoters of electro-gasification. The highest-oxidized P groups (–C–O–P-like species) seem to distribute the gained oxygen to neighboring carbon sites, which finally suffer oxidation and/or gasification. So it is thought that P-groups could act as mediators of carbon oxidation although including various steps and intermediates compared to electroxidation in P-free materials.

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).

BACKGROUND Renal ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury is manifested by acute renal failure (ARF) and acute tubular necrosis (ATN). The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of preconditioning with 3, 3, 5 triiodothyronine (T3) to prevent I/R renal injury. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS THE RATS WERE DIVIDED INTO FOUR GROUPS: sham-operated, placebo-treated (SO-P), sham-operated T3- treated (SO- T3), I/R-injured placebo-treated (IR-P), and I/R-injured T3-treated (IR- T3) groups. At 24 h before ischemia, the animals received a single dose of T3 (100 μg/kg). Renal function and plasma, urinary, and tissue variables were studied at 4, 24, and 48 h of reperfusion, including biochemical, oxidative stress, and inflammation variables, PARP-1 immunohistochemical expression, and ATN morphology. In comparison to the SO groups, the IR-P groups had higher plasma urea and creatinine levels and greater proteinuria (at all reperfusion times) and also showed: increased oxidative stress-related plasma, urinary, and tissue variables; higher plasma levels of IL6 (proinflammatory cytokine); increased glomerular and tubular nuclear PARP-1 expression; and a greater degree of ATN. The IR-T3 group showed a marked reduction in all of these variables, especially at 48 h of reperfusion. No significant differences were observed between SO-P and SO-T3 groups. CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrates that preconditioning rats with a single dose of T3 improves the clinical signs and ATN of renal I/R injury. These beneficial effects are accompanied by reductions in oxidative stress, inflammation, and renal PARP-1 expression, indicating that this sequence of factors plays an important role in the ATN induced by I/R injury.

Dans la th´eorie des repr´esentations modulaires des groupes finis, les modules d?endo-permutation occupent une place importante. En e_et, c?est le r?ole jou´e par ces modules dans l?analyse de la structure de certains modules simples pour des groupes finis p-nilpotents, qui a amen´e E. Dade `a en introduire le concept, en 1978. Quelques ann´ees plus tard, L. Puig a d´emontr´e que la source de n?importe quel module simple pour un groupe fini p-r´esoluble quelconque est un module d?endo-permutation. Plus r´ecemment, on s?est rendu compte que ces modules interviennent aussi dans l?analyse locale des cat´egories d´eriv´ees et dans l?´etude des syst`emes de fusion. La situation que l?on consid`ere est la suivante. On se donne un nombre premier p, un p-groupe fini P, un corps alg´ebriquement clos k de caract´eristique p et on veut d´eterminer tous les kP-modules d?endo-permutation couverts ind´ecomposables de type fini, c?est-`a-dire tous les kP-modules ind´ecomposables de type fini, tels que leur alg`ebre d?endomorphismes est un kP-module de permutation ayant un facteur direct trivial. On d´efinit une relation d?´equivalence sur l?ensemble de ces kP-modules et le produit tensoriel des modules induit une structure de groupe ab´elien sur l?ensemble des classes d?´equivalence. On appelle ce groupe, le groupe de Dade de P. Ainsi, classifier les modules d?endo-permutation couverts revient `a d´eterminer le groupe de Dade de P. Le groupe de Dade d?un p-groupe fini arbitraire est encore inconnu, bien qu?E. Dade, en 1978, ´etait d´ej`a parvenu `a la classification dans le cas o`u P est ab´elien. La premi`ere partie de ce travail de th`ese est consacr´ee au probl`eme de la classification dans le cas g´en´eral et r´esoud la question dans le cas de deux familles de p-groupes finis, `a savoir celle des p-groupes m´etacycliques, pour un nombre premier p impair, et celle des 2-groupes extrasp´eciaux, de la forme D8 _ · · · _ D8. Ces deux choix ont ´et´e motiv´es par le fait que ces groupes sont "presque" ab´eliens. De plus, certains r´esultats sur la structure du groupe de Dade d?un p-groupe fini quelconque rendent le groupe de Dade des groupes de ces deux familles plus simple `a ´etudier. Dans un deuxi`eme temps, nous nous sommes int´eress´es `a deux occurrences de ces modules dans la th´eorie de la repr´esentation des groupes finis, c?est-`a-dire `a deux raisons qui motivent leur ´etude. Ainsi, nous avons r´ealis´e des modules d?endo-permutation comme sources de modules simples. En particulier, il s?av`ere que, dans le cas d?un nombre premier p impair, tout module d?endo-permutation ind´ecomposable dont la classe est un ´el´ement de torsion dans le groupe de Dade est la source d?un module simple. Finalement, nous avons d´etermin´e, parmi tous les modules d?endo-permutation connus actuellement, lesquels poss`edent une r´esolution de permutation endo-scind´ee. Nous sommes arriv´es `a la conclusion que les seuls modules d?endo-permutation qui n?ont pas de r´esolution de permutation endo-scind´ee sont les modules "exceptionnels" apparaissant pour un 2-groupe de quaternions g´en´eralis´es.<br/><br/>In modular representation theory, endo-permutation modules occupy an important position. Indeed, the role that these modules play, in the analysis of the structure of some particular simple modules for finite p-nilpotent groups, induced E. Dade, in 1978, to give them their current name. A few years later, L. Puig proved that the source of any simple module for any finite psolvable group is an endo-permutation module. More recently, the occurrence of endo-permutation modules has also been noticed in the local analysis of splendid equivalences between derived categories and in the study of fusion systems. We consider the following situation. Given a prime number p, a finite pgroup P and an algebraically closed field k of characteristic p, we are looking for all finitely generated indecomposable capped endo-permutation kP-modules. That is, all finitely generated indecomposable kP-modules such that their endomorphism algebra is a permutation kP-module having a trivial direct summand. Then, we define an equivalence relation on the set of all isomorphism classes of such modules, and it turns out that the tensor product (over k) induces a structure of abelian group on this set. We call this group the Dade group of P. Hence, classifying all indecomposable finitely generated capped endo-permutation kPmodules is equivalent to determining the Dade group of P. At present, the Dade group of an arbitrary finite p-group is still unknown. However, E. Dade computed the Dade group of all finite abelian p-groups, in 1978 already. The first part of this doctoral thesis is concerned with the problem of the classification in the general case and solve it in the case of two families of finite p-groups, namely the metacyclic p-groups, for an odd prime number p, and the extraspecial 2-groups of the shape D8 _· · ·_D8. These two choices have been motivated by the fact that these groups are not far from being abelian. Moreover, some general results concerning the Dade group of arbitrary finite p-groups suggest that the Dade group of the groups belonging to these two families is easier to study. In the second part of this thesis, we have been looking at two particular occurrences of these modules in representation theory of finite groups which motivate the interest of their classification. Thus, we realised endo-permutation modules as sources of simple modules. In particular, it turns out that, in case p is an odd prime, any indecomposable module whose class in the Dade group is a torsion element is the source of some simple module. Finally, we considered all the modules we know at present and determined which ones have an endo-split permutation resolution. We could then conclude that all but the "exceptionnal" modules occurring in the generalized quaternion case have an endo-split permutation resolution.<br/><br/>"Module d?endo-permutation" n?est pas le nom d?une maladie exotique contagieuse (du moins pas `a ma connaissance), comme vous pourriez peut-?etre l?imaginer si vous faites partie des personnes qui croient que le titre de docteur n?est destin´e qu?aux m´edecins. Dans ce cas, il se peut que le sujet dont il est question ici vous cause quelques naus´ees et r´eveille de douloureux souvenirs d?´ecole, car un module d?endo-permutation est un objet math´ematique, alg´ebrique, plus pr´ecis´ement. Ce concept a ´et´e introduit il y a un quart de si`ecle, de l?autre c?ot´e de l?Atlantique, et il s?est r´ev´el´e su_samment int´eressant pour qu?aujourd?hui il ait franchi bien des fronti`eres, celles de l?alg`ebre y compris. Mais de quoi s?agit-il ? Si vous entendez le terme "endo-permutation" probablement pour la premi`ere fois, ce n?est certainement pas le cas pour celui de "module". Cependant, sa d´efinition dans le pr´esent contexte ne co¨ýncide avec aucune de celles figurant dans les dictionnaires ordinaires. Les personnes qui ont d´ej`a entendu parler de Frobenius, Burnside, Schur, ou encore Brauer, pourront vous dire qu?un module est une repr´esentation. "De quoi ?" vous demanderezvous. "Un spectacle de marionnettes, peut-?etre ?" Bien s?ur que non ! Un module d?endo-permutation est une repr´esentation particuli`ere de certains groupes finis, o`u un groupe n?est pas un groupe de rock, comme vous pouvez vous en douter, mais d´esigne un objet math´ematique connu par tous les ´etudiants en sciences au terme de leur premi`ere ann´ee universitaire (en th´eorie, du moins). La "popularit´e" de la notion de groupe, fini ou non, est due au fait que les groupes sont fr´equemment utilis´es, aussi bien dans le domaine abstrait des math´ematiques, que dans le monde r´eel des physiciens, chimistes et autres biologistes (pour ne citer qu?eux). "Mais comment peut-on utiliser concr`etement ces objets invisibles ?" vous demanderez-vous alors. Et bien, justement, en les consid´erant par l?interm´ediaire de leurs repr´esentations, c?est-`a-dire en leur associant des matrices, de fa¸con plus ou moins naturelle. Or, comme il y a "beaucoup trop" de matrices pour un groupe donn´e, elles sont classifi´ees selon certaines de leurs propri´et´es, ce qui permet de les r´epertorier dans diverses familles (celle des modules d?endo-permutation, par exemple). Un groupe est ainsi rendu "concret", car les donn´ees matricielles sont manipulables par tous les scienti- fiques (et leurs ordinateurs), qui peuvent alors les utiliser dans leurs recherches, afin de contribuer au progr`es de la science. En toute franchise, c?est bien loin de ces soucis terre-`a-terre que ce travail de th`ese sur la classification des modules d?endo-permutation a ´et´e accompli. En fait, quitte `a choquer certaines ?ames sensibles, sa r´ealisation est surtout due au caract`ere ´epicure de son auteur, qui, avouons-le, en a ´et´e pleinement satisfait !

The title compound, potassium nickel(II) digallium tris-( phosphate) dihydrate, K[NiGa2(PO4)(3)(H2O)(2)], was synthesized hydrothermally. The structure is constructed from distorted trans-NiO4(H2O)2 octahedra linked through vertices and edges to GaO5 trigonal bipyramids and PO4 tetrahedra, forming a three-dimensional framework of formula [NiGa2(PO4)(3)(H2O)(2)](-). The K, Ni and one P atom lie on special positions (Wyckoff position 4e, site symmetry 2). There are two sets of channels within the framework, one running parallel to the [10 (1) over bar] direction and the other parallel to [001]. These intersect, forming a three-dimensional pore network in which the water molecules coordinated to the Ni atoms and the K+ ions required to charge balance the framework reside. The K+ ions lie in a highly distorted environment surrounded by ten O atoms, six of which are closer than 3.1 angstrom. The coordinated water molecules are within hydrogen-bonding distance to O atoms of bridging Ga-O-P groups.

The Capacitated Centered Clustering Problem (CCCP) consists of defining a set of p groups with minimum dissimilarity on a network with n points. Demand values are associated with each point and each group has a demand capacity. The problem is well known to be NP-hard and has many practical applications. In this paper, the hybrid method Clustering Search (CS) is implemented to solve the CCCP. This method identifies promising regions of the search space by generating solutions with a metaheuristic, such as Genetic Algorithm, and clustering them into clusters that are then explored further with local search heuristics. Computational results considering instances available in the literature are presented to demonstrate the efficacy of CS. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

OBJETIVO: Investigar as repercussões clínicas, biomecânicas e histomorfométricas do ácido zoledrônico em tíbias de ratas osteoporóticas, após ooforectomia bilateral. MÉTODOS: Foram estudadas, prospectivamente, 40 ratas da linhagem Wistar (Rattus novergicus albinus). Com 60 dias de vida, os animais foram aleatorizados em dois grupos de acordo com o procedimento cirúrgico: ooforectomia bilateral (O) (n=20) e pseudo-cirurgia (sham) (P) (n=20). Após 30 dias, os animais foram divididos em quatro subgrupos, de acordo com a administração de 0,1mg/kg de ácido zoledrônico (AZ) ou água destilada (AD): OAZ (n=10), OAD (n=10), PAZ (n=10) e PAD (n=10). Após 12 meses, os animais foram eutanasiados e suas tíbias analisadas. No estudo clínico foi considerado o peso dos animais; no estudo biomecânico foram realizados ensaios compressivos e na análise histomorfométrica foi determinada a área trabecular óssea. RESULTADOS: Os grupos O tiveram aumento de peso significativamente maior que os grupos P (p=0,005). Os grupos OAZ e PAZ tiveram aumento, não significativo, de peso quando comparados aos grupos OAD (p=0,47) e PAD (p=0,68). Os grupos com ácido zoledrônico e com água destilada suportaram carga máxima, semelhante (p=0,2), no momento em que ocorreu fratura. Nos grupos com ácido zoledrônico verificou-se o aumento não significante da área trabecular óssea quando comparados aos grupos com água destilada (p=0,21). Houve correlação positiva entre a área trabecular e a carga máxima (p=0,04; r=0,95). CONCLUSÃO: O ácido zoledrônico não influiu significativamente no peso dos animais. Os resultados mostraram aumento, não significante, tanto da resistência óssea diafisária tibial, como da área trabecular óssea.

Objetivo: estudar as repercussões da hipertensão sobre o peso da placenta e índice placentário. Métodos: foram utilizadas 82 ratas virgens da linhagem Wistar em idade de reprodução. Após a indução da hipertensão arterial experimental (Modelo Goldblatt I -- 1 rim-1 clipe) as ratas foram sorteadas para compor os 4 grandes grupos experimentais (controle, manipulação, nefrectomia e hipertensão). A seguir, as ratas foram distribuídas por sorteio em 8 subgrupos, sendo quatro prenhes (P) e quatro não-prenhes. Após acasalamento, dos quatro grupos prenhes obtivemos com o nascimento dos recém-nascidos (RN) os seguintes grupos: RN-C, RN-M, RN-N e RN-H, respectivamente, controle, manipulação, nefrectomizado e hipertenso. Resultados: quanto ao peso da placenta, o do grupo RN-C foi estatisticamente maior que o de todos os demais grupos. Por outro lado, verifica-se que o peso das placentas provenientes do grupo RN-M foi maior que o dos grupos RN-N e RN-H, os quais não diferiram entre si. Os índices placentários dos grupos P-C (Md = 0,1085) e P-M (Md = 0,1110) não diferiram entre si, mas foram menores que os dos grupos P-N (Md = 0,1175) e P-H (Md = 0,1211), os quais também não diferiram entre si. Conclusões: a hipertensão e a nefrectomia unilateral determinaram redução do peso das placentas e aumento do índice placentário, evidenciando repercussões no desenvolvimento placentário e fetal.
