On metacyclic Fibonacci groups

Fibonacci lengths for certain metacyclic groups

For a finitely generated group G = 〈A〉 where A = {a1, a2, . . . , an} the sequence xi = ai+1, 0 ≤ i ≤ n − 1, xi+n = ∏n j=1 xi+j−1, i ≥ 0, is called the Fibonacci orbit of G with respect to the generating set A, denoted FA(G). If FA(G) is periodic we call the length of the period of the sequence the Fibonacci length of G with respect to A, written LENA(G). In this paper we examine the Fibonacci ...

Character Tables of Metacyclic Groups

We show that two metacyclic groups of the following types are isomorphic if they have the same character tables: (i) split metacyclic groups, (ii) the metacyclic p-groups and (iii) the metacyclic {p, q}-groups, where p, q are odd primes. 2010 Mathematics Subject Classification.

QUASI-PERMUTATION REPRESENTATIONS OF METACYCLIC 2-GROUPS

By a quasi-permutation matrix we mean a square matrix over the complex field C with non-negative integral trace. Thus, every permutation matrix over C is a quasipermutation matrix. For a given finite group G, let p(G) denote the minimal degree of a faithful permutation representation of G (or of a faithful representation of G by permutation matrices), let q(G) denote the minimal degree of a fa...

Twisted Group Rings of Metacyclic Groups

Given a finite metacyclic group G, a central extension F having the projective lifting property over all fields is constructed. This extension and its group rings are used to investigate the faithful irreducible projective representations of G and the fields over which they can be realized. A full description of the finite metacyclic groups having central simple twisted group rings over fields ...
