Cayley digraphs of finite abelian groups are often used to model communication networks. Because of their applications, extremal Cayley digraphs have been studied extensively in recent years. Given any positive integers d and k. Let m*(d, k) denote the largest positive integer m such that there exists an m-element finite abelian group Γ and a k-element subset A of Γ such that diam ( Cay (Γ, A)) ≤ d, where diam ( Cay (Γ, A)) denotes the diameter of the Cayley digraph Cay (Γ, A) of Γ generated by A. Similarly, let m(d, k) denote the largest positive integer m such that there exists a k-element set A of integers with diam (ℤm, A)) ≤ d. In this paper, we prove, among other results, that [Formula: see text] for all d ≥ 1 and k ≥ 1. This means that the finite abelian group whose Cayley digraph is optimal with respect to its diameter and degree can be a cyclic group.

AbstractWe provide explicit and unified formulas for the cocycles of all degrees on the normalized bar resolutions of finite abelian groups. This is achieved by constructing a chain map from the normalized bar resolution to a Koszul-like resolution for any given finite abelian group. With a help of the obtained cocycle formulas, we determine all the braided linear Gr-categories and compute the Dijkgraaf–Witten Invariants of the n-torus for all n.

In this paper, we mainly count the number of subgroup chains of a finite nilpotent group. We derive a recursive formula that reduces the counting problem to that of finite p-groups. As applications of our main result, the classification problem of distinct fuzzy subgroups of finite abelian groups is reduced to that of finite abelian p-groups. In particular, an explicit recursive formula for the number of distinct fuzzy subgroups of a finite abelian group whose Sylow subgroups are cyclic groups or elementary abelian groups is given.

Let$G$be a finite abelian group and$A\subseteq G$. For$n\in G$, denote by$r_{A}(n)$the number of ordered pairs$(a_{1},a_{2})\in A^{2}$such that$a_{1}+a_{2}=n$. Among other things, we prove that for any odd number$t\geq 3$, it is not possible to partition$G$into$t$disjoint sets$A_{1},A_{2},\dots ,A_{t}$with$r_{A_{1}}=r_{A_{2}}=\cdots =r_{A_{t}}$.

We study the dynamics of endomorphisms on a finite abelian group. We obtain the automorphism group for these dynamical systems. We also give criteria and algorithms to determine whether it is a fixed point system.

Let $G=C_{n_1}\oplus \ldots \oplus C_{n_r}$ be a finite abelian group with $r=1$ or $1 < n_1|\ldots|n_r$, and let $S=(a_1,\ldots,a_t)$ be a sequence of elements in $G$. We say $S$ is an unextendible sequence if $S$ is a zero-sum free sequence and for any element $g\in G$, the sequence $Sg$ is not zero-sum free any longer. Let $L(G)=\lceil \log_2{n_1}\rceil+\ldots+\lceil \log_2{n_r}\rceil$ and $d^*(G)=\sum_{i=1}^r(n_i-1)$, in this paper we prove, among other results, that the minimal length of an unextendible sequence in $G$ is not bigger than $L(G)$, and for any integer $k$, where $L(G)\leq k \leq d^*(G)$, there exists at least one unextendible sequence of length $k$.

Let G be a finite subgroup of GL(n, C) (C is the field of complex numbers). Then G acts naturally on the polynomial ring S = C[X1, …, Xn]. We consider the followingProblem. When is the invariant subring SG a complete intersection?In this paper, we treat the case where G is a finite Abelian group. We can solve the problem completely. The result is stated in Theorem 2.1.

A subset A of a given finite abelian group G is called (k,l)-sum-free if the sum of k (not necessarily distinct) elements of A does not equal the sum of l (not necessarily distinct) elements of A. We are interested in finding the maximum size λk,l(G) of a (k,l)-sum-free subset in G. A (2,1)-sum-free set is simply called a sum-free set. The maximum size of a sum-free set in the cyclic group ℤn was found almost 40 years ago by Diamanda and Yap; the general case for arbitrary finite abelian groups was recently settled by Green and Ruzsa. Here we find the value of λ3,1(ℤn). More generally, a recent paper by Hamidoune and Plagne examines (k,l)-sum-free sets in G when k - l and the order of G are relatively prime; we extend their results to see what happens without this assumption.

Let A be a cyclic group of order pn, where p is a prime, and B be a finite abelian group or a finite p-group which is determined by its endomorphism semigroup in the class of all groups. It is proved that under these assumptions the wreath product A Wr B is determined by its endomorphism semigroup in the class of all groups. It is deduced from this result that if A, B, A0,…, An are finite abelian groups and A0,…, An are p-groups, p prime, then the wreath products A Wr B and An Wr (…( Wr (A1 Wr A0))…) are determined by their endomorphism semigroups in the class of all groups.

Let [Formula: see text] denote the set of positive integers that may appear as the real genus of a finite abelian group. We obtain a set of (simple) necessary conditions for an integer [Formula: see text] to belong to [Formula: see text]. We also prove that the real genus of an abelian group is not congruent to 3 modulo 4 and that the genus of an abelian group of odd order is a multiple of 4. Finally, we obtain upper and lower bounds for the density of the set [Formula: see text].

Hajós [2] asked if each factorization of a finite abelian group is quasi-periodic. Sands [5] exhibited a counter-example. We will show that a sizeable family of finite abelian groups admits nonquasi-periodic factorizations. We also describe a small family whose members have only quasi-periodic factorizations.
