AbstractIn this paper, the Brauer trees are completed for the sporadic simple Lyons group Ly in characteristics 37 and 67. The results are obtained using tools from computational representation theory—in particular, a new condensation technique—and with the assistance of the computer algebra systems MeatAxe and GAP.

The method of evaluation of Clebsch–Gordan coefficients to calculate the direct product of transitive representations for a finite group is developed. This procedure is based on the Mackey theorem and on the canonical realization of transitive representations. It is shown that the Clebsch–Gordan decomposition is associated with a natural interpretation of an orbit of a resultant transitive representation and it is analogous to a fibre bundle with the fibration being determined by constituent transitive representations.

Let k be a knot in S3, ψ: π1(S3–k)→Zα1 * Zα2 an epimorphism sending a meridian to an element of length 2 and ω: Zα1 * Zα2→Sσ a transitive representation into a symmetric group. Information is given (in Theorem B##) on the homologies of the unbranched and branched covers associated to ωψ which generalizes a conjecture of Riley. When k is a torus knot these homologies are actually computed.

The nonsolvable R-groups as defined by Walter [3] are groups of orders (q3+l)q3(q — 1), q = 32n+1, n ≥ 0. These are the groups of Ree type discussed by Ward [4] together with the Ree group R(3) of order 28.27.2. The R-group with parameter q has a doubly transitive representation of degree q3+1 but in this note we will prove that it cannot contain a sharply doubly transitive subset.

We construct the inverse partition semigroup[Formula: see text], isomorphic to the dual symmetric inverse monoid[Formula: see text], introduced in [6]. We give a convenient geometric illustration for elements of [Formula: see text]. We describe all maximal subsemigroups of [Formula: see text] and find a generating set for [Formula: see text] when X is finite. We prove that all the automorphisms of [Formula: see text] are inner. We show how to embed the symmetric inverse semigroup into the inverse partition one. For finite sets X, we establish that, up to equivalence, there is a unique faithful effective transitive representation of [Formula: see text], namely to [Formula: see text]. Finally, we construct an interesting [Formula: see text]-cross-section of [Formula: see text], which is reminiscent of [Formula: see text], the [Formula: see text]-cross-section of [Formula: see text], constructed in [4].
