In this paper we consider again the group-theoretic configuration studied in (1) and (2). Let G be an additive group (not necessarily abelian), let M be a system of operators for G, and let ϕ be a family of admissible subgroups which form a complete lattice relative to intersection and compositum. Under these circumstances we call G an M — ϕ group. In (1) we studied the normal chains for an M — ϕ group and the relation between certain normal chains. In (2) we considered the possibility of representing an M — ϕ group as the direct sum of certain of its subgroups, and proved that with suitable restrictions on the M — ϕ group the analogue of the following theorem for finite groups holds: A group is the direct product of its Sylow subgroups if and only if it is nilpotent. Here we show that under suitable hypotheses (hypotheses (I), (II), and (III) stated at the beginning of §3) it is possible to generalize to M — ϕ groups many of the Sylow theorems of classical group theorem.

We construct the [Formula: see text] theory analogue of the particles that transform under the Poincaré group, that is, the irreducible representations of the semi-direct product of the Cartan involution subalgebra of [Formula: see text] with its vector representation. We show that one such irreducible representation has only the degrees of freedom of 11-dimensional supergravity. This representation is most easily discussed in the light cone formalism and we show that the duality relations found in [Formula: see text] theory take a particularly simple form in this formalism. We explain that the mysterious symmetries found recently in the light cone formulation of maximal supergravity theories are part of [Formula: see text]. We also argue that our familiar space–times have to be extended by additional coordinates when considering extended objects such as branes.

In the course of investigating the structure of finite groups which have a representation in the form ABA, for suitable subgroups A and B, we have been forced to study groups G which admit an automorphism ϕ such that every element of G lies in at least one of the orbits under ϕ of the elements g, gϕr(g), gϕrϕ(g)ϕ2r(g), gϕr(g)ϕr2r(g)ϕ3r(g), etc., where g is a fixed element of G and r is a fixed integer.In a previous paper on ABA-groups written jointly with I. N. Herstein (4), we have treated the special case r = 0 (in which case every element of G can be expressed in the form ϕi(gj)), and have shown that if the orders of ϕ and g are relatively prime, then G is either Abelian or the direct product of an Abelian group of odd order and the quaternion group of order 8.

AbstractThe authors determine all the absolutely irreducible representations of degree up to 250 of quasi-simple finite groups, excluding groups that are of Lie type in their defining characteristic. Additional information is also given on the Frobenius-Schur indicators and the Brauer character fields of the representations.

Let [Formula: see text] be a group and [Formula: see text] be the [Formula: see text]-absolute center of [Formula: see text], that is, the set of all elements of [Formula: see text] fixed by all class preserving automorphisms of [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we classify all finite groups [Formula: see text], whose [Formula: see text]-absolute central factors are isomorphic to the direct product of cyclic groups, [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]. Moreover, we consider finite groups which can be written as the union of centralizers of class preserving automorphisms and study the structure of [Formula: see text] for groups, in which the number of distinct centralizers of class preserving automorphisms is equal to 4 or 5.
