AbstractThe class of multi-EGS groups is a generalisation of the well-known Grigorchuk–Gupta–Sidki (GGS-)groups. Here we classify branch multi-EGS groups with the congruence subgroup property and determine the profinite completion of all branch multi-EGS groups. Additionally, our results show that branch multi-EGS groups are just infinite.

AbstractLet Fq be a finite field with q elements, V an n-dimensional vector space over Fq and 𝒱 the projective space associated to V. Let G≤GLn(Fq) be a classical group and PG be the corresponding projective group. In this note we prove that if Fq (V )G is purely transcendental over Fq with homogeneous polynomial generators, then Fq (𝒱)PG is also purely transcendental over Fq. We compute explicitly the generators of Fq (𝒱)PG when G is the symplectic, unitary or orthogonal group.

We investigate projective properties of Lorentzian surfaces. In particular, we prove that if T is a non-flat torus, then the index of its isometry group in its projective group is at most two. We also prove that any topologically finite non-compact surface can be endowed with a metric having a non-isometric projective transformation of infinite order.

The subsemigroups of the projective group on the line that are described in this paper are those that can be generated by a pair of infinitesimal transformations. One denotes by G the connected component of the identity of this group; Theorem 1 gives a necessary and sufficient condition for a pair of infinitesimal transformations to generate a subsemigroup which is equal to G (and hence is actually a group). This condition is reformulated in a geometric manner in Theorem 1*.

One important point in the determination of the automorphisms of the classical groups is the study of group-theoretic properties of the elements of order 2, that is, the involutions. The group of similitudes and the projective group of similitudes of a non-degenerate quadratic form Q are extensions of the orthogonal group and the projective orthogonal group, respectively. These extended groups may contain involutions which do not belong to the orthogonal group or the projective orthogonal group. To study the automorphisms of such groups, group-theoretic properties of some of these new involutions should be established.The aim of this paper is to give some properties of a similitude T of ratio ρ whose square T2 is equal to the scalar multiplication by — p (it is always assumed that we are dealing with a field of characteristic ≠2). If ρ = — 1, T is an involution in the group of similitudes and for any ρ the coset of T in the projective group of similitudes is an involution.

We study the symmetries of the equations describing a nonstationary and isentropic flow for an ideal and compressible fluid in four-dimensional space-time. We prove that this system of equations is invariant under the Galilean-similitude group. In the special case of the adiabatic exponent γ = 5/3, corresponding to a diatomic gas, the symmetry group of this system is larger. It is invariant under the Galilean-projective group. A representatives list of subalgebras of Galilean similitude and Galilean-projective Lie algebras, obtained by the method of classification by conjugacy classes under the action of their respective Lie groups, is presented. The results are given in a normalized list and summarized in tables. Examples of invariant and nonreducible partially invariant solutions, obtained from this classification, is constructed. The final part of this work contains an analysis of this classification in connection with a further classification of the symmetry algebras for the Euler and magnetohydrodynamics equations.
