AbstractIn this paper we use Takeuchy–Ulbrich's cohomology of complexes of categories with abelian group structure to introduce a cohomology theory for simplicial sets, or topological spaces, with coefficients in symmetric cat-groups . This cohomology is the usual one when abelian groups are taken as coefficients, and the main topological significance of this cohomology is the fact that it is equivalent to the reduced cohomology theory defined by a Ω-spectrum, {}, canonically associated to . We use the spaces to prove that symmetric cat-groups model all homotopy type of spaces X with Πi(X) = 0 for all i ╪ n, n + 1 and n ≥ 3, and then we extend Eilenberg–MacLane's classification theorem to those spaces: .

An abelian topological group can be considered simply as an abelian group or as a topological space. The question considered in this article is whether the topological group structure is determined by these weaker structures. Denote homeomorphism, isomorphism, and homeomorphic isomorphism by ≈, ≅ , and =, respectively. The principal results are these.Theorem 1. If G1andG2are locally compact and connected, then G1≈ G2implies G1= G2.

AbstractLet G be a stable abelian group with regular modular generic. We show that either1. there is a definable nongeneric K ≤ G such that G/K has definable connected component and so strongly regular generics, or2. distinct elements of the division ring yielding the dependence relation are represented by subgroups of G × G realizing distinct strong types (when regarded as elements of Geq).In the latter case one can choose almost 0-definable subgroups representing the elements of the division ring. We find a bound ((G: G0)) for the size of the division ring in case G has no definable subgroup K so that G/K is infinite with definable connected component. We show in case (2) that the group G/H, where H consists of all nongeneric points of G, inherits a weakly minimal group structure from G naturally, and Th(G/H) is independent of the particular model G as long as G/H is infinite.

Abstract Extending a result by Alon, Linial, and Meshulam to abelian groups, we prove that if G is a finite abelian group of exponent m and S is a sequence of elements of G such that any subsequence of S consisting of at least $$|S| - m\ln |G|$$ elements generates G, then S is an additive basis of G . We also prove that the additive span of any l generating sets of G contains a coset of a subgroup of size at least $$|G{|^{1 - c{ \in ^l}}}$$ for certain c=c(m) and $$ \in = \in (m) < 1$$ ; we use the probabilistic method to give sharper values of c(m) and $$ \in (m)$$ in the case when G is a vector space; and we give new proofs of related known results.

AbstractLet G be an abelian group. The aim of this short paper is to describe a way to identify pure subgroups H of G by looking only at how the subgroup lattice $$\mathcal {L}(H)$$ L ( H ) embeds in $$\mathcal {L}(G)$$ L ( G ) . It is worth noticing that all results are carried out in a local nilpotent context for a general definition of purity.

Let Λ be a commutative local uniserial ring of length n, p be a generator of the maximal ideal, and k be the radical factor field. The pairs (B, A) where B is a finitely generated Λ-module and A ⊆B a submodule of B such that pmA = 0 form the objects in the category [Formula: see text]. We show that in case m = 2 the categories [Formula: see text] are in fact quite similar to each other: If also Δ is a commutative local uniserial ring of length n and with radical factor field k, then the categories [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are equivalent for certain nilpotent categorical ideals [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]. As an application, we recover the known classification of all pairs (B, A) where B is a finitely generated abelian group and A ⊆ B a subgroup of B which is p2-bounded for a given prime number p.

In 2004, a counterexample was given for a 1965 result of R. J. Elliott claiming that discrete spectral synthesis holds on every Abelian group. Since then the investigation of discrete spectral analysis and synthesis has gained traction. Characterizations of the Abelian groups that possess spectral analysis and spectral synthesis, respectively, were published in 2005. A characterization of the varieties on discrete Abelian groups enjoying spectral synthesis is still missing. We present a ring theoretical approach to the issue. In particular, we provide a generalization of the Principal Ideal Theorem on discrete Abelian groups.

The object of this paper is to prove that for a finite abelian group G the natural map is injective, where Â(G) is the completion of the Burnside ring of G and σ0(BG) is the stable cohomotopy of the classifying space BG of G. The map â is detected by means of an M U* exponential characteristic class for permutation representations constructed in (11). The result is a generalization of a theorem of Laitinen (4) which treats elementary abelian groups using ordinary cohomology. One interesting feature of the present proof is that it makes explicit use of the universality of the formal group law of M U*. It also involves a computation of M U*(BG) in terms of the formal group law. This may be of independent interest. Since writing the paper the author has discovered that M U*(BG) has previously been calculated by Land-weber(5).

AbstractIn this paper, we study “the ring of component functions” of SL(2, C)-representations of free abelian groups. This is a subsequent research of our previous work [11] for free groups. We introduce some descending filtration of the ring, and determine the structure of its graded quotients.Then we give two applications. In [30], we constructed the generalized Johnson homomorphisms. We give an upper bound on their images with the graded quotients. The other application is to construct a certain crossed homomorphisms of the automorphism groups of free groups. We show that our crossed homomorphism induces Morita's 1-cocycle defined in [22]. In other words, we give another construction of Morita's 1-cocyle with the SL(2, C)-representations of the free abelian group.
