Group Theory

We study a class of measure-theoretic objects that we call cubic couplings, on which there is a common generalization of the Gowers norms and the Host- Kra seminorms. Our main result yields a complete structural description of cubic couplings, using...

The study of finite groups factorised as a product of two or more subgroups has become a subject of great interest during the last years with applications not only in group theory, but also in other areas like cryptography and coding theory. It has...

In just over 100 pages, this book provides basic, essential knowledge of some of the tools of real analysis: the Hardy-Littlewood maximal operator, the Calderon-Zygmund theory, the Littlewood-Paley theory, interpolation of spaces and operators, and the...

For a finite group G, we denote by ?(G) the number of Aut(G)-orbits on G, and by o(G) the number of distinct element orders in G. In this paper, we are primarily concerned with the two quantities d(G) := ?(G) ? o(G) and q(G) := ?(G)/ o(G), each of which...

Fifty years after it made the transition from mimeographed lecture notes to a published book, Armand Borel's Introduction aux groupes arithmetiques continues to be very important for the theory of arithmetic groups. In particular, Chapter III of the book...

Graph theory and especially the study of graph homomorphisms has developed exponentially in the last couple of decades. Originally based on the authors' graduate course lecture notes, this is still the only book devoted entirely to graph homomorphisms,...

Study 79 contains a collection of papers presented at the Conference on Discontinuous Groups and Ricmann Surfaces at the University of Maryland, May 21-25, 1973. The papers, by leading authorities, deal mainly with Fuchsian and Kleinian groups,...

Descent in Buildings begins with the resolution of a major open question about the local structure of Bruhat-Tits buildings. The authors then put their algebraic solution into a geometric context by developing a general fixed point theory for groups...

The theory of finite simple groups enjoyed a period of spectacular activity in the 1950s and 1960s. The first edition of Gorenstein's book was published in 1968, at the time of some of the first major classification results. The second edition was...

Codes and Rings: Theory and Practice is a systematic review of literature that focuses on codes over rings and rings acting on codes. Since the breakthrough works on quaternary codes in the 1990s, two decades of research have moved the field far beyond...

This book collects a series of contributions addressing the various contexts in which the theory of Lie groups is applied. A preliminary chapter serves the reader both as a basic reference source and as an ongoing thread that runs through the subsequent...

Originally written in 1940, this book remains a classical source on representations and characters of finite and compact groups. The book starts with necessary information about matrices, algebras, and groups. Then the author proceeds to representations...

This monograph covers in a comprehensive manner the current state of classification theory with respect to infinite abelian groups. A wide variety of ways to characterise different classes of abelian groups by invariants, isomorphisms and duality...

This proceedings volume documents the contributions presented at the conference held at Fairfield University and at the Graduate Center, CUNY in 2018 celebrating the New York Group Theory Seminar, in memoriam Gilbert Baumslag, and to honor Benjamin Fine...

This monograph provides an introduction to the theory of Clifford algebras, with an emphasis on its connections with the theory of Lie groups and Lie algebras. The book starts with a detailed presentation of the main results on symmetric bilinear forms...

This book offers a detailed introduction to graph theoretic methods in profinite groups and applications to abstract groups. It is the first to provide a comprehensive treatment of the subject. The author begins by carefully developing relevant...

This volume contains papers presented at a conference held in April 2007 at the CRM in Montreal honouring the remarkable contributions of John McKay over four decades of research. Papers by invitees who were unable to attend the conference are also...

This book provides an introduction to topological groups and the structure theory of locally compact abelian groups, with a special emphasis on Pontryagin-van Kampen duality, including a completely self-contained elementary proof of the duality theorem...

The aim of this monograph is to give an overview of various classes of in?ni- dimensional Lie groups and their applications, mostly in Hamiltonian - chanics, ?uid dynamics, integrable systems, and complex geometry. We have chosen to present the unifying...

This modern translation of Sophus Lie's and Friedrich Engel's "Theorie der Transformationsgruppen I" will allow readers to discover the striking conceptual clarity and remarkably systematic organizational thought of the original German text. Volume I...

This book is about the computational aspects of invariant theory. Of central interest is the question how the invariant ring of a given group action can be calculated. Algorithms for this purpose form the main pillars around which the book is built...

A large international conference celebrated the 50-year career of Anatole Katok and the body of research across smooth dynamics and ergodic theory that he touched. In this book many leading experts provide an account of the latest developments at the...

In this book the author presents the dynamical systems in infinite dimension, especially those generated by dissipative partial differential equations. This book attempts a systematic study of infinite dimensional dynamical systems generated by...
