The order of a group of even order

We will give an estimation of the order of a group of even order by the order of the centralizer of an involution using the classification of finite simple groups.

     

Non-Commuting Graphs of Nilpotent Groups

Let G be a non-abelian group and Z(G) be the center of G. The non-commuting graph Γ _G associated to G is the graph whose vertex set is G?Z(G) and two distinct elements x, y are adjacent if and only if xy ≠ yx. We prove that if G and H are non-abelian nilpotent groups with irregular isomorphic non-commuting graphs, then |G| = |H|.     

Torus actions on symplectic orbi-spaces

Which -dimensional orbi-spaces have effective symplectic - torus actions? As shown by Lerman and Tolman (1997) and Watson (1997), this question reduces to that of characterizing the finite subgroups of centralizers of tori in the real symplectic group . We resolve this question, and generalize our method to a calculation of the centralizers of all tori in .

     

Centralizers in free Poisson algebras

We prove an analog of the Bergman Centralizer Theorem for free Poisson algebras over an arbitrary field of characteristic 0. Some open problems are formulated.

     

中心化子的刻画

令X为实或复域F上的Banach空间,■为X上的标准算子代数,I是■的单位元.设Φ:■→■是可加映射.本文证明了,如果有正整数m,n,使得Φ满足条件Φ(A~(m+n+1))-A~mΦ(A)A~n∈FI对任意A成立,则存在λ∈F,使得对所有的A∈■,都有Φ(A)=λA.同样的结果对于自伴算子空间上的可加映射也成立.此外,本文还给出了中心素代数上满足条件(m+n)Φ(AB)-mAΦ(B)-nΦ(A)B∈FI的可加映射Φ的完全刻画.     

Characterizing centralizers and generalized derivations on triangular algebras by acting on zero product

Let U = Tri(A,M,B) be a triangular ring, where A and B are unital rings, and M is a faithful (A, B)-bimodule. It is shown that an additive map Φ on U is centralized at zero point (i.e., Φ(A)B = AΦ(B) = 0 whenever AB = 0) if and only if it is a centralizer. Let δ : U → U be an additive map. It is also shown that the following four conditions are equivalent: (1) δ is specially generalized derivable at zero point, i.e., δ(AB) = δ(A)B + Aδ(B) Aδ(I)B whenever AB = 0; (2) δ is generalized derivable at zero point, i.e., there exist additive maps τ1 and τ2 on U derivable at zero point such that δ(AB) = δ(A)B + Aτ1 (B) = τ2 (A)B + Aδ(B) whenever AB = 0; (3) δ is a special generalized derivation; (4) δ is a generalized derivation. These results are then applied to nest algebras of Banach space.     

Finite groups and the fixed points of coprime automorphisms

Let be a prime, and let be a finite -group acted on by an elementary abelian -group . The following results are proved:

1. If and is nilpotent of class at most for any , then the group is nilpotent of -bounded class.

2. If and is nilpotent of class at most for any , then the derived group is nilpotent of -bounded class.
