Closed BLD-elliptic manifolds have virtually Abelian fundamental groups
We show that a closed, connected, oriented, Riemannian n-manifold, admitting a branched cover of bounded length distortion from R, has a virtually Abelian fundamental group.
متن کاملFinite groups have even more centralizers
For a finite group $G$, let $Cent(G)$ denote the set of centralizers of single elements of $G$. In this note we prove that if $|G|leq frac{3}{2}|Cent(G)|$ and $G$ is 2-nilpotent, then $Gcong S_3, D_{10}$ or $S_3times S_3$. This result gives a partial and positive answer to a conjecture raised by A. R. Ashrafi [On finite groups with a given number of centralizers, Algebra Collo...
متن کاملAlgorithms for Polycyclic-by-finite Groups Algorithms for Polycyclic-by-finite Groups Table of Contents
OF THE DISSERTATION Algorithms for Polycyclic-by-Finite Groups by Gretchen Ostheimer Dissertation Director: Professor Charles C. Sims Let R be a number eld. We present several algorithms for working with polycyclicbynite subgroups of GL(n;R). Let G be a subgroup of GL(n;R) given by a nite generating set of matrices. We describe an algorithm for deciding whether or not G is polycyclic-bynite. Fo...
متن کاملgroups whose proper subgroups of infinite rank have polycyclic-by-finite conjugacy classes
a group g is said to be a (pf)c-group or to have polycyclic-by-finite conjugacy classes, if g/c_{g}(x^{g}) is a polycyclic-by-finite group for all xin g. this is a generalization of the familiar property of being an fc-group. de falco et al. (respectively, de giovanni and trombetti) studied groups whose proper subgroups of infinite rank have finite (respectively, polycyclic) conjugacy classes. ...
متن کاملAutomorphism groups of polycyclic-by-finite groups and arithmetic groups
We show that the outer automorphism group of a polycyclic-by-finite group is an arithmetic group. This result follows from a detailed structural analysis of the automorphism groups of such groups. We use an extended version of the theory of the algebraic hull functor initiated by Mostow. We thus make applicable refined methods from the theory of algebraic and arithmetic groups. We also construc...
