Every abelian group is the class group of a simple Dedekind domain

Every Abelian Group Is a Class Group

Let T be the set of minimal primes of a Krull domain A. If S is a subset of T9 we form B = n AP for PeS and study the relation of the class group of B to that of A. We find that the class group of B is always a homomorphic image of that of A. We use this type of construction to obtain a Krull domain with specified class group and then alter such a Krull domain to obtain a Dedekind domain with t...

THE AUTOMORPHISM GROUP OF NON-ABELIAN GROUP OF ORDER p^4

Let G be a finite non-abelian group of order p^4 . In this paper we give a structure theorem for the Sylow p-subgroup, Aut_p(G)  , of the automorphism group of G.

How Abelian is a Finite Group?

A well known theorem of G. A. Miller [4] (see also [2]) shows that a p-group of order p" where n > v(v 1)/2 contains an Abelian subgroup of order p° . It is clear that this theorem together with Sylow's Theorem implies that any finite group of large order contains an Abelian p-group of large order . In this note we use simple number theoretic considerations to make this implication more precise...

Reciprocal class of random walks on a Abelian group

Processes having the same bridges as a given reference Markov process constitute its reciprocal class. In this paper we study the reciprocal class of a continuous time random walk with values in a countable Abelian group, compute explicitly its reciprocal characteristics and present an integral characterization of it. Our main tool is a new iterated version of the celebrated Mecke’s formula fro...
