Finitely Generated Torsion-free Nilp otent Groups Admitting an Automorphism of Prime Order

Let G be a finitely generated torsion-free nilpotent group and α an automorphism of prime order p of G. If the map φ : G-→ G defined by gφ= [g, α]is surjective, then the nilpotent class of G is at most h(p), where h(p) is a function depending only on p. In particular, if α3= 1, then the nilpotent class of G is at most2.     

Finite groups with systems of Σ-embedded subgroups

In recent years,a series of papers about cover-avoiding property of subgroups appeared and all the studies were connected with chief factors of a finite group.However,about the cover-avoiding property of subgroups for non-chief factor,there is no study up to now.The purpose of this paper is to build the theory.Let A be a subgroup of a finite group G and Σ:G0≤G1≤…≤Gn some subgroup series of G.Suppose that for each pair(K,H) such that K is a maximal subgroup of H and G i 1 K < H G i for some i,either A ∩ H = ...     

Gauss Sum of Index 4： （1） Cyclic Case

Let p be a prime, m ≥ 2, and （m,p（p - 1）） = 1. In this paper, we will calculate explicitly the Gauss sum G（X） = ∑x∈F＊qX（x）ζ^Tp^（x） in the case of [（Z/mZ）＊ ： （p）] = 4, and -1 （不属于） （p）, where q P^f, f =φ（m）/4, X is a multiplicative character of Fq with order m, and T is the trace map for Fq/Fp. Under the assumptions [（Z/mZ）＊ ： （p）] = 4 and 1（不属于） （p）, the decomposition field of p in the cyclotomic field Q（ζm） is an imaginary quartic （abelian） field. And G（X） is an integer in K. We deal with the case where K is cyclic in this oaDer and leave the non-cvclic case to the next paper.     

Finite groups whose minimal subgroups are weakly H-subgroups

Let G be a finite group.A subgroup H of G is called an H-subgroup in G if NG(H) ∩Hg≤H for all g∈G.A subgroup H of G is called a weakly H-subgroup in G if there exists a normal subgroup K of G such that G=HK and H∩K is an H-subgroup in G.In this paper,we investigate the structure of the finite group G under the assumption that every subgroup of G of prime order or of order 4 is a weakly H-subgroup in G.Our results improve and generalize several recent results in the literature.     

Gauss Sum of Index 4： （2） Non-cyclic Case

Assume that m ≥ 2, p is a prime number, （m,p（p - 1）） = 1,-1 not belong to 〈p〉 belong to （Z/mZ）^＊ and [（Z/mZ）^＊：〈p〉]=4.In this paper, we calculate the value of Gauss sum G（X）=∑x∈F^＊x（x）ζp^T（x） over Fq,where q=p^f,f=φ（m）/4,x is a multiplicative character of Fq and T is the trace map from Fq to Fp.Under our assumptions,G（x） belongs to the decomposition field K of p in Q（ζm） and K is an imaginary quartic abelian unmber field.When the Galois group Gal（K/Q） is cyclic,we have studied this cyclic case in anotyer paper：＂Gauss sums of index four：（1）cyclic case＂（accepted by Acta Mathematica Sinica,2003）.In this paper we deal with the non-cyclic case.     

Normal edge-transitive Cayley graphs on non-abelian groups of order 4p, where p is a prime number

We determine all connected normal edge-transitive Cayley graphs on non-abelian groups with order 4p,where p is a prime number.As a consequence we prove if |G|=2δp,δ=0,1,2 and p prime,then Γ=Cay(G,S) is a connected normal 1/2 arc-transitive Cayley graph only if G=F4p,where S is an inverse closed generating subset of G which does not contain the identity element of G and F 4p is a group with presentation F4p = a,b|ap=b4=1,b-1ab=aλ,where λ2≡-1(mod p).     

On Two Theorems of Finite Solvable Groups

For a finite group G, let T（G） denote a set of primes such that a prime p belongs to T（G） if and only if p is a divisor of the index of some maximal subgroup of G. It is proved that if G satisfies any one of the following conditions： （1） G has a p-complement for each p∈T（G）; （2）│T（G）│= 2： （3） the normalizer of a Sylow p-subgroup of G has prime power index for each odd prime p∈T（G）; then G either is solvable or G/Sol（G）≌PSL（2, 7） where Sol（G） is the largest solvable normal subgroup of G.     

区传递的$2-(v, k, 1)$ 设计与单群$E_6(q)$

This article is a contribution to the study of block-transitive automorphism groups of 2-（v,k,1） block designs. Let D be a 2-（v,k,1） design admitting a block-transitive, pointprimitive but not flag-transitive automorphism group G. Let kr = （k,v-1） and q = pf for prime p. In this paper we prove that if G and D are as above and q （3（krk-kr ＋ 1）f）1/3, then G does not admit a simple group E6（q） as its socle.     

可解群的$\cd(G)-1$个特征标次数构成的图

Let G be a group. We consider the set cd（G）／{m}, where m ∈ cd（G）. We define the graph △（G - m） whose vertex set is p（G - m）, the set of primes dividing degrees in cd（G）／{m}. There is an edge between p and q in p（G - m） ifpq divides a degree a ∈ cd（G）／{m}. We show that if G is solvable, then △（G - m） has at most two connected components.     

On exceptional pq-groups

A finite group G is called exceptional if for a Galois extension F/k of number fields with the Galois group G,in the Brauer-Kuroda relation of the Dedekind zeta functions of fields between k and F,the zeta function of F does not appear.In the present paper we describe effectively all exceptional groups of orders divisible by exactly two prime numbers p and q,which have unique subgroups of orders p and q.

Brauer and Jones tied monoids

We introduce a ramified monoid, attached to each Brauer–type monoid, that is, to the symmetric group, to the Jones and Brauer monoids among others. Ramified monoids correspond to a class of tied monoids arising from knot theory and are interesting in themselves. The ramified monoid attached to the symmetric group is the Coxeter-like version of the so–called tied braid monoid. We give a presentation of the ramified monoid attached to the Brauer monoid. Also, we introduce and study two tied-like monoids that cannot be described as ramified monoids. However, these monoids can also be regarded as tied versions of the Jones and Brauer monoids.

On graphs with a given endomorphism monoid

Hedrlín and Pultr proved that for any monoid M there exists a graph G with endomorphism monoid isomorphic to M . In this paper we give a construction G(M) for a graph with prescribed endomorphism monoid M . Using this construction we derive bounds on the minimum number of vertices and edges required to produce a graph with a given endomorphism monoid for various classes of finite monoids. For example we show that for every monoid M , | M |=m there is a graph G with End(G)? M and |E(G)|≤(1 + 0(1))m². This is, up to a factor of 1/2, best possible since there are monoids requiring a graph with \begin{eqnarray*} && \frac{m^{2}}{2}(1 -0(1)) \end{eqnarray*} edges. We state bounds for the class of all monoids as well as for certain subclasses—groups, k‐cancellative monoids, commutative 3‐nilpotent monoids, rectangular groups and completely simple monoids. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Collapsing monoids consisting of permutations and constants

In this paper we determine all collapsing transformation monoids that contain at least one unary constant operation and whose nonconstant operations are permutations. Furthermore, we find an infinite family of transformation monoids that consist of at least three unary constant operations and some permutations for which the corresponding monoidal intervals are 2-element chains.
