Bogomolov Multipliers for Some p-groups of Nilpotency Class 2

The Bogomolov multiplier B0 （G） of a finite group G is defined as the subgroup of the Schur multiplier consisting of the cohomology classes vanishing after restriction to all abelian subgroups of G. The triviality of the Bogomolov multiplier is an obstruction to Noether＇s problem. We show that if G is a central product of G1 and G2, regarding Ki ≤ Z（Gi）,i = 1,2, and θ ： G1 →G2 is a group homomorphism such that its restriction θ｜K1 ： K1 → K2 is an isomorphism, then the triviality of Bo（G1/K1）, Bo（G1） and B0（G2） implies the triviality of Bo（G）. We give a positive answer to Noether＇s problem for all 2-generator p-groups of nilpotency class 2, and for one series of 4-generator p-groups of nilpotency class 2 （with the usual requirement for the roots of unity）.

Homotopy epimorphisms preserve nilpotency

Recall that f: X→Y is a homotopy epimorphism (monomorphism) if given u, v: Y→W(u, v:W→X), u(?)of(?)v(?)f implies u(?)v(f(?)u(?)f(?)v implies u(?)v). In ref. [1], Lin and Shen

On Local Nilpotency of the Normal Subgroups of a Group

A group G is said to have property μ whenever N is a non-locally nitpotent normal subgroup of G, there is a finite non-nilpotent G-quotient of N. FC-groups and groups with property v satisfy property μ, where a group G is said to have property v if every non-nilpotent normal subgroup of G has a finite non-nilpotent G-quotient. HP（G） is the Hirsch-Plotkin radical of G, and φf （G） is the intersection of all the maximal subgroups of finite index in G （here φf（G） = G if no such maximal subgroups exist）. It is shown that a group G has property μ if and only if HP（G/φf（G）） = HP（G）/φf（G） and that the class of groups with property v is a proper subclass of that of groups with property it. Also, the structure of the normal subgroups of a group： nilpotency with the minimal condition, is investigated.

Successive Approximation of p-Class Towers

Let F be a number field and p be a prime. In the successive approximation theorem, we prove that, for each integer n ≥ 1, finitely many candidates for the Galois group of the nth stage of the p-class tower over F are determined by abelian type invariants of p-class groups C1pE of unramified extensions E/F with degree [E : F] = pn-1. Illustrated by the most extensive numerical results available currently, the transfer kernels (TE, F) of the p-class extensions TE, F : C1pF → C1pE from F to unramified cyclic degree-p extensions E/F are shown to be capable of narrowing down the number of contestants significantly. By determining the isomorphism type of the maximal subgroups S G of all 3-groups G with coclass cc(G) = 1, and establishing a general theorem on the connection between the p-class towers of a number field F and of an unramified abelian p-extension E/F, we are able to provide a theoretical proof of the realization of certain 3-groups S with maximal class by 3-tower groups of dihedral fields E with degree 6, which could not be realized up to now.

Some additive results for the generalized Drazin inverse in a Banach algebra

Let a, b be two generalized Drazin invertibleelements in a Banach algebra. An explicit expression for thegeneralized Drazin inverse of the sum a ＋ b in terms of a, b,as, bd is given.

Let Fq be a finite field. In this paper, a construction of Cartesian au-thentication codes from the normal form of a class of nilpotent matrices over the field Fq is presented. Moreover, assume that the encoding rules are chosen according to a uniform probability distribution, the probabilities PI and PS, of a successful im-personation attack and of a successful substitution attack respectively, of these codes are also computed.

Finitely Generated Torsion-free Nilpotent Groups Admitting an Automorphism of Prime Order

Let G be a finitely generated torsion-free nilpotent group and a an automorphism of prime order p of G. If the map ψ ： G → G defined by g^φ = [g, α] is surjective, then the nilpotent class of G is at most h（p）, where h（p） is a function depending only on p. In particular, if α^3 = 1, then the nilpotent class of G is at most 2.

Linear Operators That Strongly Preserve Nilpotent Matrices over Antinegative Semirings

Let S be an antinegative commutative semiring without zero divisors and Mn（S） be the semiring of all n × n matrices over S. For a linear operator L on Mn（S）, we say that L strongly preserves nilpotent matrices in Mn（S） if for any A ∈ Mn（S）, A is nilpotent if and only if L（A） is nilpotent. In this paper, the linear operators that strongly preserve nilpotent matrices over S are characterized.

Thermal Stresses and Theorem on Decomposition

The thermal expansion strain is considered as a special case of eigenstrain.The authors proved the theorem on decomposition of eigenstrain existing in a body into two constituents:Impotent eigenstrain(not causing stress in any point of a body)and nilpotent eigenstrain(not causing strain in any point of a body).According to this theorem,the thermal stress can be easily found through the nilpotent eigenstrain.If the eigenstrain is an impotent one,the thermal stress vanishes.In this case,the eigenstrain must be compatible.The authors suggest a new approach to measure of eigenstrain incompatibility and hence to estimate of thermal stresses.

Optimal control of quadratic functionals for affine nonlinear systems

In this paper we analyze the optimal control problem for a class of afflne nonlinear systems under the assumption that the associated Lie algebra is nilpotent. The Lie brackets generated by the vector fields which define the nonlinear system represent a remarkable mathematical instrument for the control of affine systems. We determine the optimal control which corresponds to the nilpotent operator of the first order. In particular, we obtain the control that minimizes the energy of the given nonlinear system. Applications of this control to bilinear systems with first order nilpotent operator are considered.

Exact Solution of a Linear Difference Equation in a Finite Number of Steps

An exact solution of a linear difference equation in a finite number of steps has been obtained. This refutes the conventional wisdom that a simple iterative method for solving a system of linear algebraic equations is approximate. The nilpotency of the iteration matrix is the necessary and sufficient condition for getting an exact solution. The examples of iterative equations providing an exact solution to the simplest algebraic system are presented.

A Note on Nilpotent Operators

We find that a bounded linear operator T on a complex Hilbert space H satisfies the norm relation |||T|na|| =2q, for any vector a in H such that q≤(||Ta||-4-1||Ta||2)≤1.A partial converse to Theorem 1 by Haagerup and Harpe in [1] is suggested. We establish an upper bound for the numerical radius of nilpotent operators.
