Almost quaternion-hermitian manifolds with large automorphism group

We study almost quaternion-hermitian manifolds with large automorphism group, and classify them when the dimension of the group is close to the maximal dimension.     

Left invariant metrics and curvatures on simply connected three‐dimensional Lie groups

For each simply connected three‐dimensional Lie group we determine the automorphism group, classify the left invariant Riemannian metrics up to automorphism, and study the extent to which curvature can be altered by a change of metric. Thereby we obtain the principal Ricci curvatures, the scalar curvature and the sectional curvatures as functions of left invariant metrics on the three‐dimensional Lie groups. Our results improve a bit of Milnor's results of [7] in the three‐dimensional case, and Kowalski and Nikv?cevi?'s results [6, Theorems 3.1 and 4.1] (© 2009 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

Integral point sets in higher dimensional affine spaces over finite fields

We consider point sets in the m-dimensional affine space where each squared Euclidean distance of two points is a square in Fq. It turns out that the situation in is rather similar to the one of integral distances in Euclidean spaces. Therefore we expect the results over finite fields to be useful for the Euclidean case.We completely determine the automorphism group of these spaces which preserves integral distances. For some small parameters m and q we determine the maximum cardinality I(m,q) of integral point sets in . We provide upper bounds and lower bounds on I(m,q). If we map integral distances to edges in a graph, we can define a graph Gm,q with vertex set . It turns out that Gm,q is strongly regular for some cases.     

A birational embedding with two Galois points for quotient curves

A criterion for the existence of a birational embedding with two Galois points for quotient curves is presented. We apply our criterion to several curves, for example, some cyclic subcovers of the Giulietti–Korchmáros curve or of the curves constructed by Skabelund. New examples of plane curves with two Galois points are described, as plane models of such quotient curves.     

Classification of Hadamard matrices of order 44 with automorphisms of order 7

The Hadamard matrices of order 44 possessing automorphisms of order 7 are classified. The number of their equivalence classes is 384. The order of their full automorphism group is calculated. These Hadamard matrices yield 1683 nonisomorphic 3-(44,22,10) designs, 57932 nonisomorphic 2-(43,21,10) designs, and two inequivalent extremal binary self-dual doubly even codes of length 88 (one of them being new).     

On a Method of J. H. C. Whitehead

In this article which is partly a continuation of Goldstein (1999 Goldstein , R. Z. ( 1999 ). The length and thickness of words in a free group . Proc. Amer. Math. Soc. 127 ( 10 ): 2857 – 2863 . [CSA] [CROSSREF]  [Google Scholar]), we give some necessary and sufficient conditions for an element of a free group to be primitive. For certain words x, we also give a lower bound on the length of words obtained from x by an automorphism. In the last section we give another proof of the Primitivity Theorem recently proven by Lee, using ideas from the first part of the article.     

Classifying Finite Simple Groups with Respect to the Number of Orbits Under the Action of the Automorphism Group

Abstract

Let ω(G) denote the number of orbits on the finite group G under the action of Aut(G). Using the classification of finite simple groups, we prove that for any positive integer n, there is only a finite number of (non-abelian) finite simple groups G satisfying ω(G) ≤ n. Then we classify all finite simple groups G such that ω(G) ≤ 17. The latter result was obtained by computational means, using the computer algebra system GAP.     

Hyperelliptic curves over of every -rank without extra automorphisms

We prove that for any pair of integers such that or 0$">, there exists a (hyper)elliptic curve over of genus and -rank whose automorphism group consists of only identity and the (hyper)elliptic involution. As an application, we prove the existence of principally polarized abelian varieties over of dimension and -rank such that .
