Some questions about the Lévy monoid of certain densities

Let $\bf H$ be a set, $f: \mathcal P({\bf H}) \rightharpoonup \bf R$ a partial function, and $\mathcal{D}$ the domain of $f$. Next, denote by $\mathcal M(f)$ the set of all (total) functions $\theta: ...

Bourgain-Gamburd-like theorems in the non-algebraic case

For $\mu$ a Borel probability measure on the compact group $G=\operatorname{SU}(d)$, Bourgain-Gamburd prove that the spectral radius of the associated operator on $L^2(G)$ is strictly less than one, ...

Localized at $p$ integral representations of finite elementary $p$-groups

Let $C_p$ be a cyclic group of prime order $p$. Let $F=C_p^n=C_p\times\dots\times C_p$ ($n$ times). I would like to to classify finite dimensional representations of $F$ over ${\mathbb{Z}}$. However, ...

Monotonicity of the cycle index polynomial under restriction

The cycle index (polynomial) of the symmetric group $\mathfrak{S}_n$ is given by the formula: $$Z(\mathfrak{S}_n)(x_1,\dots,x_n)=\sum_{1j_1+2j_2+\cdots+nj_n=n}\prod_{k=1}^n\frac{x_k^{j_k}}{k^{j_k}j_k!}...

Existence of countable dense normal subgroups of global Galois group

Let $K$ be a number field, $S$ a finite set of primes of $K$ and $ G_{K,S} $ the Galois group of the maximal extension of $ K $ (inside a fixed algebraic closure of $K$) unramified outside $ S $. In ...

A non-surjective coboundary map induced by a central extension

Let $k$ be a number field and $$ 1\to A \to B \to C \to 1$$ be a central extension of finite groups over $\mathcal{O}_k$ (the ring of integers of $k$), with $B$ non-commutative. Consider the induced ...
