We show that the subgroup lattice of any finite group satisfies Frankl’s Union-Closed Conjecture. We show the same for all lattices with a modular coatom, a family which includes all supersolvable and dually semimodular lattices. A common technical result used to prove both may be of some independent interest.

Abstract Let {\mathfrak{F}} be a non-empty class of groups, let G be a finite group and let {\mathcal{L}(G)} be the lattice of all subgroups of G. A chief {H/K} factor of G is {\mathfrak{F}} -central in G if {(H/K)\rtimes(G/C_{G}(H/K))\in\mathfrak{F}} . Let {\mathcal{L}_{c\mathfrak{F}}(G)} be the set of all subgroups A of G such that every chief factor {H/K} of G between {A_{G}} and {A^{G}} is {\mathfrak{F}} -central in G; {\mathcal{L}_{\mathfrak{F}}(G)} denotes the set of all subgroups A of G with {A^{G}/A_{G}\in\mathfrak{F}} . We prove that the set {\mathcal{L}_{c\mathfrak{F}}(G)} and, in the case when {\mathfrak{F}} is a Fitting formation, the set {\mathcal{L}_{\mathfrak{F}}(G)} are sublattices of the lattice {\mathcal{L}(G)} . We also study conditions under which the lattice {\mathcal{L}_{c\mathfrak{N}}(G)} and the lattice of all subnormal subgroup of G are modular.

For a finite group [Formula: see text], we associate the quantity [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] is the subgroup lattice of [Formula: see text]. Different properties and problems related to this ratio are studied throughout this paper. We determine the second minimum value of [Formula: see text] on the class of [Formula: see text]-groups of order [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] is an integer. We show that the set containing the quantities [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] is a finite (abelian) group, is dense in [Formula: see text] Finally, we consider [Formula: see text] to be a function on [Formula: see text] and we indicate some of its properties, the main result being the classification of finite abelian [Formula: see text]-groups [Formula: see text] satisfying [Formula: see text]

Abstract We establish, in the setting of equivariant motivic homotopy theory for a finite group, a version of tom Dieck’s splitting theorem for the fixed points of a suspension spectrum. Along the way we establish structural results and constructions for equivariant motivic homotopy theory of independent interest. This includes geometric fixed-point functors and the motivic Adams isomorphism.

We present a two-parameter family $(G_{m,k})_{m, k \in \mathbb{N}_{\geq 2}}$, of finite, non-abelian random groups and propose that, for each fixed k, as m → ∞ the commuting graph of Gm,k is almost surely connected and of diameter k. We present heuristic arguments in favour of this conjecture, following the lines of classical arguments for the Erdős–Rényi random graph. As well as being of independent interest, our groups would, if our conjecture is true, provide a large family of counterexamples to the conjecture of Iranmanesh and Jafarzadeh that the commuting graph of a finite group, if connected, must have a bounded diameter. Simulations of our model yielded explicit examples of groups whose commuting graphs have all diameters from 2 up to 10.

AbstractVarious lattices of subgroups of a finite transitive permutation group G can be used to define a set of ‘basic’ permutation groups associated with G that are analogues of composition factors for abstract finite groups. In particular G can be embedded in an iterated wreath product of a chain of its associated basic permutation groups. The basic permutation groups corresponding to the lattice L of all subgroups of G containing a given point stabiliser are a set of primitive permutation groups. We introduce two new subgroup lattices contained in L, called the seminormal subgroup lattice and the subnormal subgroup lattice. For these lattices the basic permutation groups are quasiprimitive and innately transitive groups, respectively.

Abstract It is of interest to study how contextual quantum mechanics is, in terms of the violation of Kochen Specker state-independent and state-dependent non-contextuality inequalities. We present state-independent non-contextuality inequalities with large violations, in particular, we exploit a connection between Kochen-Specker proofs and pseudo-telepathy games to show KS proofs in Hilbert spaces of dimension $d \geq 2^{17}$ with the ratio of quantum value to classical bias being $O(\sqrt{d}/\log d)$. We study the properties of this KS set and show applications of the large violation. It has been recently shown that Kochen-Specker proofs always consist of substructures of state-dependent contextuality proofs called $01$-gadgets or bugs. We show a one-to-one connection between $01$-gadgets in $\mathbb{C}^d$ and Hardy paradoxes for the maximally entangled state in $\mathbb{C}^d \otimes \mathbb{C}^d$. We use this connection to construct large violation $01$-gadgets between arbitrary vectors in $\mathbb{C}^d$, as well as novel Hardy paradoxes for the maximally entangled state in $\mathbb{C}^d \otimes \mathbb{C}^d$, and give applications of these constructions. As a technical result, we show that the minimum dimension of the faithful orthogonal representation of a graph in $\mathbb{R}^d$ is not a graph monotone, a result that may be of independent interest.

Given a finite group G, we introduce the permutability degree of G, as pd(G) = 1/|G| |L(G)| ?X?L(G)|PG(X)|, where L(G) is the subgroup lattice of G and PG(X) the permutizer of the subgroup X in G, that is, the subgroup generated by all cyclic subgroups of G that permute with X ? L(G). The number pd(G) allows us to find some structural restrictions on G. Successively, we investigate the relations between pd(G), the probability of commuting subgroups sd(G) of G and the probability of commuting elements d(G) of G. Proving some inequalities between pd(G), sd(G) and d(G), we correlate these notions.
