In his paper [8], N. Itô gives an elegant proof that the Sylow p-group of a finite solvable linear group of degree n over the field of complex numbers is necessarily normal if p > n+1. Moreover he shows that this bound on p is the best possible when p is a Fermat prime (i.e. a prime of the form 2sk + 1) but that the bound may be improved to p > n when p is not a Fermat prime.
Generic-case approach to algorithmic problems was suggested by A. Miasnikov, I. Kapovich, P. Schupp and V. Shpilrain in 2003. This approach studies behavior of an algo-rithm on typical (almost all) inputs and ignores the rest of inputs. In this paper, we prove that the subset sum problems for the monoid of integer positive unimodular matrices of the second order, the special linear group of the second order, and the modular group are generically solvable in polynomial time.
AbstractWe derive a new methodology for the construction of high-order integrators for sampling the invariant measure of ergodic stochastic differential equations with dynamics constrained on a manifold. We obtain the order conditions for sampling the invariant measure for a class of Runge–Kutta methods applied to the constrained overdamped Langevin equation. The analysis is valid for arbitrarily high order and relies on an extension of the exotic aromatic Butcher-series formalism. To illustrate the methodology, a method of order two is introduced, and numerical experiments on the sphere, the torus and the special linear group confirm the theoretical findings.
AbstractLet {G_{n}} denote either the group {\mathrm{SO}(2n+1,F)} or {\mathrm{Sp}(2n,F)} over a non-archimedean local field of characteristic different than two. We study parabolically induced representations of the form {\langle\Delta\rangle\rtimes\sigma}, where {\langle\Delta\rangle} denotes the Zelevinsky segment representation of the general linear group attached to the segment Δ, and σ denotes a discrete series representation of {G_{n}}. We determine the composition series of {\langle\Delta\rangle\rtimes\sigma} in the case when {\Delta=[\nu^{a}\rho,\nu^{b}\rho]} where a is half-integral.
We discuss the quantum problem of a charged particle in a multiply connected region encircling a magnetic tube, using a theory in which space and internal coordinates are derived from the parameters of a linear group of transformations (group space quantum theory). Based only on symmetry considerations, we show that, the magnetic flux in the tube must be quantized in multiples of the Dirac monopole charge.
