Does any finite group of order $2m$ with odd $m$ have a subgroup of index 2? [closed]
Let $G$ be a finite group of order $2m$ where $m>1$ is an odd natural number.
Question. Is it true that any such $G$ has a subgroup $H$ of index 2?
If yes, I would be grateful for a reference or a …

A small rank linear combination of a small number of elements of a group
This is a version of
this question of Klim Efremenko.
Let $r>2$ be a natural number, say $r=3$ or $r=10$. Let $G$ be a finite group and $\rho$
be an irreducible complex representation of $G$. We con …

Involutive automorphisms of a finite abelian p-group
First, let $A$ be a finitely generated free abelian group, and $s$ an automorphism of order $2$ of $A$. Set $G=\{1,s\}$. Then we know that $A$ is a sum of indecomposable $G$-lattices $A_i$, where eac …

Symmetric subgroups of simple algebraic groups over finite fields
Let $G$ be a simply connected simple algebraic group over a field $k$.
Let $\theta\colon G\to G$ be an involution of $G$ over $k$ (an automorphism of order 2).
Let $H=(G^\theta)^0$, the identity comp …

Asymptotics of regular semisimple elements in finite groups of lie type
This seems to have nothing to do with algebraic groups.
I suppose that you mean that $G$ is a connected reductive group. So you have an irreducible algebraically variety $G$ and an open subvariety $X= …

Non-vanishing of the Tate-Shafarevich kernel in group cohomology
Let $G$ be a finite group. Let $M$ be a finite $G$-module (a finite abelian group with an action of $G$).
We consider a special kind of $G$-modules; in particular, our $M$ is a finite dimensional repr …

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, …

Permutation covering of a $G$-lattice
Let $G$ be a finite group.
By a $G$-lattice we mean a finitely generated free abelian group $L$ with an action of $G$.
We say that $L$ is a permutation $G$-lattice if $L$ has a ${{\mathbf{Z}}}$-basis …

How simple does a $\mathbb{Q}$-simple group remain after base change to $\mathbb{Q}_{\ell}$?
I assume that the question is: Is it true that there is always a prime $\ell$ such that $G_\ell$ has no absolutely simple direct factors?
The answer is YES. There are infinitely many such $\ell$.

Minimal rank of a permutation resolution of a $G$-lattice
Let $G$ be a finite group.
By a $G$-lattice I mean a finitely generated free abelian group $L$ with an action of $G$.
One says that $L$ is a permutation lattice if $L$ has a $\mathbb{Z}$-basis permut …

that is, a finitely generated abelian group on which $G$ acts.
Consider the functor
