A positive extension of Eilenberg’s variety theorem for non-regular languages.

Abstract:

In this paper we go further with the study initiated by Behle, Krebs and Reifferscheid (in: Proceedings CAI 2011, Lecture Notes in Computer Science, vol 6742, pp 97–114, 2011), who gave an Eilenberg-type theorem for non-regular languages via typed monoids. We provide a new extension of that result, inspired by the one carried out by Pin in the regular case in 1995, who considered classes of languages not necessarily closed under complement. We introduce the so-called positively typed monoids, and give a correspondence between varieties of such algebraic structures and positive varieties of possibly non-regular languages. We also prove a similar result for classes of languages with weaker closure properties.

Abstract

A remarkable result of Thompson states that a finite group is soluble if and only if all its two-generated subgroups are soluble. This result has been generalized in numerous ways, and it is in the core of a wide area of research in the theory of groups, aiming for global properties of groups from local properties of two-generated (or more generally, n-generated) subgroups. We contribute an extension of Thompson’s theorem from the perspective of factorized groups. More precisely, we study finite groups G = AB with subgroups A, B such that ⟨a, b⟩ is soluble for all aA and bB. In this case, the group G is said to be an S-connected product of the subgroups A and B for the class S of all finite soluble groups. Our Main Theorem states that G = AB is S-connected if and only if [A, B] is soluble. In the course of the proof, we derive a result about independent primes regarding the soluble graph of almost simple groups that might be interesting in its own right.

Abstract

We provide structural criteria for some finite factorised groups G=AB when the conjugacy class sizes in G of certain π-elements in AB are either π-numbers or π′-numbers, for a set of primes π. In particular, we extend for products of groups some earlier results.

Abstract

The aim of this paper is to prove the following result: Let π be a set of odd primes. If the group G = AB is the product of two π-decomposable subgroups A = Aπ × Aπ′ and B = Bπ × Bπ′, then G has a unique conjugacy class of Hall π-subgroups, and any π-subgroup is contained in a Hall π-subgroup (i.e. G satisfies property Dπ).

Abstract

For a non-empty class of groups L, a finite group G=AB is said to be an L-connected product of the subgroups A and B if ⟨a,b⟩∈L for all aA and bB. In a previous paper, we prove that, for such a product, when L=S is the class of finite soluble groups, then [A,B] is soluble. This generalizes the theorem of Thompson that states the solubility of finite groups whose two-generated subgroups are soluble. In the present paper, our result is applied to extend to finite groups previous research about finite groups in the soluble universe. In particular, we characterize connected products for relevant classes of groups, among others, the class of metanilpotent groups and the class of groups with nilpotent derived subgroup. Additionally, we give local descriptions of relevant subgroups of finite groups.

Abstract

Let the group G = AB be the product of subgroups A and B, and let p be a prime. We prove that p does not divide the conjugacy class size (index) of each p-regular element of prime power order xAB if and only if G is p-decomposable, i.e. G=Op(G) × Op’(G).

Abstract

An element g of a finite group G is said to be vanishing in G if there exists an irreducible character χ of G such that χ(g) = 0; in this case, g is also called a zero of G. The aim of this paper is to obtain structural properties of a factorised group G = AB when we impose some conditions on prime power order elements gAB which are (non-)vanishing in G.
