چکیده

In recent years the term ‘chiral’ has been used for geometric and combinatorial figures which are symmetrical by rotation but not by reflection. The correspondence of groups and polytopes is used to construct infinite series of chiral and regular polytopes whose facets or vertex-figures are chiral or regular toroidal maps. In particular, the groups PSL,(Z,) are used to construct chiral polytopes, while PSL,(Z,[I]) and PSL,(Z,[w]) are used to construct regular polytopes.

Flag-transitive Point-primitive symmetric designs and three dimensional projective special linear groups

The main aim of this article is to study (v,k,λ)-symmetric designs admitting a flag-transitive and point-primitive automorphism group G whose socle is PSL(3,q). We indeed show that the only possible design satisfying these conditions is a Desarguesian projective plane PG(2,q) and G > PSL(3,q).

Maximum sum element orders of all proper subgroups of PGL(2, q)

In this paper we show that if q is a power of a prime p , then the projective special linear group PSL(2, q) and the stabilizer of a point of the projective line have maximum sum element orders among all proper subgroups of projective general linear group PGL(2, q) for q odd and even respectively

Characterization of projective special linear groups in dimension three by their orders and degree patterns

The prime graph $Gamma(G)$ of a group $G$ is a graph with vertex set $pi(G)$, the set of primes dividing the order of $G$, and two distinct vertices $p$ and $q$ are adjacent by an edge written $psim q$ if there is an element in $G$ of order $pq$. Let $pi(G)={p_{1},p_{2},...,p_{k}}$. For $pinpi(G)$, set $deg(p):=|{q inpi(G)| psim q}|$, which is called the degree of $p$. We also set $D(G):...

Triple factorization of non-abelian groups by two maximal subgroups

The triple factorization of a group $G$ has been studied recently showing that $G=ABA$ for some proper subgroups $A$ and $B$ of $G$, the definition of rank-two geometry and rank-two coset geometry which is closely related to the triple factorization was defined and calculated for abelian groups. In this paper we study two infinite classes of non-abelian finite groups $D_{2n}$ and $PSL(2,2^{n})$...
