چکیده

Let k be a positive integer, and suppose that the number of elements of a group G that are not k th powers in G is nonzero but finite. If G is finite, we obtain an upper bound on |G|, and we present some conditions sufficient to guarantee that G actually is finite.

Non-Abelian Sequenceable Groups Involving ?-Covers

A non-abelian finite group is called sequenceable if for some positive integer , is -generated ( ) and there exist integers such that every element of is a term of the -step generalized Fibonacci sequence , , , . A remarkable application of this definition may be find on the study of random covers in the cryptography. The 2-step generalized sequences for the dihedral groups studi...

A remark on asymptotic enumeration of highest weights in tensor powers of a representation

We consider the semigroup $S$ of highest weights appearing in tensor powers $V^{otimes k}$ of a finite dimensional representation $V$ of a connected reductive group. We describe the cone generated by $S$ as the cone over the weight polytope of $V$ intersected with the positive Weyl chamber. From this we get a description for the asymptotic of the number of highest weights appearing in $V^{otime...

The upper domatic number of powers of graphs

Let $A$ and $B$ be two disjoint subsets of the vertex set $V$ of a graph $G$. The set $A$ is said to dominate $B$, denoted by $A rightarrow B$, if for every vertex $u in B$ there exists a vertex $v in A$ such that $uv in E(G)$. For any graph $G$, a partition $pi = {V_1,$ $V_2,$ $ldots,$ $V_p}$ of the vertex set $V$ is an textit{upper domatic partition} if $V_i rightarrow V_j$ or $V_j rightarrow...

A Characterization of the Suzuki Groups by Order and the Largest Elements Order

One of the important problems in group theory is characterization of a group by a given property, that is, to prove there exist only one group with a given property. Let  be a finite group. We denote by  the largest order of elements of . In this paper, we prove that some Suzuki groups are characterizable by order and the largest order of elements. In fact, we prove that if  is a group with  an...

Distinguishing number and distinguishing index of natural and fractional powers of graphs

‎The distinguishing number (resp. index) $D(G)$ ($D'(G)$) of a graph $G$ is the least integer $d$‎ ‎such that $G$ has an vertex labeling (resp. edge labeling) with $d$ labels that is preserved only by a trivial‎ ‎automorphism‎. ‎For any $n in mathbb{N}$‎, ‎the $n$-subdivision of $G$ is a simple graph $G^{frac{1}{n}}$ which is constructed by replacing each edge of $G$ with a path of length $n$...
