Abstract.Using the classical results of G. E. Wall on the parametrization and sizes of (conjugacy) classes of finite classical groups, we present some gap results for the class sizes of the general linear groups and general unitary groups as well as their variations. In particular, we identify the classes in

The conjugacy classes in the finite-dimensional projective full linear, special linear and projective special linear groups over an arbitrary commutative field are determined. The results over a finite field are applied to certain enumerative problems.

AbstractGiven a group automorphismϕ: Γ → Γ, one has an action of Γ on itself byϕ-twisted conjugacy, namely,g.x = gxϕ(g-1). The orbits of this action are calledϕ-twisted conjugacy classes. One says that Γ has theR∞-property if there are infinitely manyϕ-twisted conjugacy classes for every automorphismϕof Γ. In this paper we show that SL(n; Z) and its congruence subgroups have the R8-property. Further we show that any (countable) abelian extension of Γ has the R8-property where Γ is a torsion free non-elementary hyperbolic group, or SL(n; Z); Sp(2n; Z) or a principal congruence subgroup of SL(n; Z) or the fundamental group of a complete Riemannian manifold of constant negative curvature.

AbstractIn this paper we characterize, in terms of their conjugacy classes, linear groups G such that $$G/\zeta _k(G)$$ G / ζ k ( G ) belongs to a certain group class $$\mathfrak {X}$$ X for several natural choices of $$\mathfrak {X}$$ X . Moreover, a description is given of linear groups with restrictions on layers.
