In this article, we show that for all finite irreducible Coxeter groups $G$ with a conjugation closed subset $C$, the conjugation quandle $\rm{Conj}(G,C)$ satisfies the Hayashi property.
In this paper, we give the enumeration of z-classes in finite Coxeter groups.
Let $G$ be a group and $α: G \times G \to G$ denote the commutator map. In the case of finite groups, Frobenius gave the formula to compute the cardinalities of the fibres $α^{-1}(g)$ in terms of the character values $χ(g)$ for irreducible characters $χ$ of $G$. We generalise this formula to compact Lie groups. Further, we connect this generalised formula to the commutator probability of the concerned groups.
Let $G$ be an algebraic group. For $d\geq 1$, we define the commuting probabilities $cp_d(G) = \frac{dim(\mathfrak C_d(G))}{dim(G^d)}$, where $\mathfrak C_d(G)$ is the variety of commuting $d$-tuples in $G$. We prove that for a reductive group $G$ when $d$ is large, $cp_d(G)\sim \fracα{n}$ where $n=\dim(G)$, and $α$ is the maximal dimension of an Abelian subgroup of $G$. For a finite reductive group $G$ defined over the field $\mathbb F_q$, we show that $cp_{d+1}(G(\mathbb F_q))\sim q^{(α-n)d}$, and give several examples.
This paper concerns the enumeration of simultaneous conjugacy classes of $k$-tuples of commuting matrices in the upper triangular group $GT_n(\mathbf F_q)$ and unitriangular group $UT_m(\mathbf F_q)$ over the finite field $\mathbf F_q$ of odd characteristic. This is done for $n=2,3,4$ and $m=3,4,5$, by computing the branching rules. Further, using the branching matrix thus computed, we explicitly get the commuting probabilities $cp_k$ for $k\leq 5$ in each case.
Let $G$ be a finite group. This expository article explores the subject of commuting probability in the group $G$ and its relation with simultaneous conjugacy classes of commuting tuples in $G$. We also point out the relevance of this topic in context of topology where similar problems are studied when $G$ is a Lie group.
This paper concerns the enumeration of simultaneous conjugacy classes of tuples of commuting unitary matrices and of commuting symplectic matrices over a finite field $\mathbf{F}_q$ of odd size. For any given conjugacy class, the orbits for the action of its centralizer group on itself by conjugation are called branches. We determine the branching rules for the unitary groups $U_2(\mathbf{F}_q), U_3(\mathbf{F}_q)$, and for the symplectic groups $Sp_2(\mathbf{F}_q), Sp_4(\mathbf{F}_q)$.
We have for positive integers $n$, $k$ and finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$, $c(n,k,q)$, as the number of simultaneous similarity classes of $k$-tuples of commuting $n\times n$ matrices over the $\mathbb{F}_q$. In this paper, it has been shown that $c(n,k,q)$ as a function of $k$ for fixed $n$ and $q$ is asymptotically $q^{m(n)k}$, where $m(n) = \left[\frac{n^2}{4}\right] + 1$, which is the dimension of the maximal commutative subalgebra of $M_n(\mathbb{F}_q)$ (the algebra of $n\times n$ matrices over $\mathbb{F}_q$).
This paper concerns the enumeration of isomorphism classes of modules of a polynomial algebra in several variables over a finite field. This is the same as the classification of commuting tuples of matrices over a finite field up to simultaneous similarity. Let $c_{n,k}(q)$ denote the number of isomorphism classes of $n$-dimensional $\mathbb{F}_q[x_1,\dotsc,x_k]$-modules. The generating function $\sum_k c_{n,k}(q)t^k$ is a rational function. We compute this function for $n\leq 4$. We find that its coefficients are polynomial functions in $q$ with non-negative integer coefficients.
