Torsion units in integral group ring of Higman-Sims simple group

Abstract

Using the Luthar-Passi method, we investigate the classical Zassenhaus conjecture for the normalized unit group of the integral group ring of the Higman-Sims simple sporadic group HS. As a consequence, we confirm the Kimmerle's conjecture on prime graphs for this sporadic group.

Comparing Numbers of Diagonal Subsemigroups and Congruences for Semigroups

Given a semigroup $S$, a diagonal subsemigroup $ρ$ is defined to be a reflexive and compatible relation on $S$, i.e. a subsemigroup of the direct square $S\times S$ containing the diagonal $\{ (s,s)\colon s\in S\}$. When $S$ is finite, we define the DSC coefficient $χ(S)$ to be the ratio of the number of congruences to the number of diagonal subsemigroups. In a previous work we observed that $χ(S) = 1$ if and only if $S$ is a group. Here we show that for any rational $α$ with $0 < α\leq 1$, there exists a semigroup with $χ(S) = α$. We do this by utilizing the Rees matrix construction and adapting the congruence classification of such semigroups to describe their diagonal subsemigroups.

General Polynomials and Eigenvalues Over Cayley--Dickson Algebras

In this paper, we provide an explicit method for determining the zero set of monic quadratic general polynomials over Cayley--Dickson algebras with any base field of characteristic not equal to $2$, which reduces the problem to finding the roots of univariate polynomials over the base field. For the special case of locally-complex Cayley--Dickson algebras over the reals, we prove that every such polynomial has a root. We prove the existence of right eigenvalues for any $2 \times 2$ matrix over Cayley's octonions (the real octonion division algebra), and our root-finding method allows the computation of some of the right eigenvalues.

Extending Structures for $n$-Lie Algebras

Motivated by the Casas-Loday-Pirashvili maps concerning representations of $n$-Leibniz algebras, we give an intrinsic characterization of the cohomology of $n$-Lie algebras with coefficient in a representation space $V$. We investigated the cohomology theory of $n$-Lie algebras in three different ways: cohomology theory of Leibniz algebras, infinitesimal deformation and abelian extension. In the main part of this paper, we solve the extending problems for $n$-Lie algebras. A necessary and sufficient unified-product criterion is obtained. The case of crossed products, sparse non-abelian extensions, matched pairs are studied as special cases. We also investigate the factorizations, deformation maps, and complements problem for $n$-Lie algebras. An appendix removes the general non-reduced unified product with all intermediate mixed components.
