We study certain function algebras and their operator algebra completions on r-discrete abelian groupoids, the corresponding conditional expectations, maximal abelian subalgebras (masa) and eigen-functionals. We give a semidirect product decomposition for an abelian groupoid. This is done through a matched pair and leads to a C*-diagonal (for a special case). We use this decomposition to study ...

In this paper, we prove that every semi-Cayley graph over a group G is quasi-abelian if and only if G is abelian.

Sets with a self-distributive operation (in the sense of ( ◃ b ) c = ), in particular quandles, appear knot and braid theories, Hopf algebra classification, study Yang–Baxter equation, other areas. An important invariant quandles is their structure group. The group finite quandle known to be either “boring” (free abelian), or “interesting” (non-abelian torsion). In this paper we explicitly desc...

Let $G$ be a non-abelian finite group. In this paper, we prove that $Gamma(G)$ is $K_4$-free if and only if $G cong A times P$, where $A$ is an abelian group, $P$ is a $2$-group and $G/Z(G) cong mathbb{ Z}_2 times mathbb{Z}_2$. Also, we show that $Gamma(G)$ is $K_{1,3}$-free if and only if $G cong {mathbb{S}}_3,~D_8$ or $Q_8$.

the theorem 12 in [a note on $p$-nilpotence and solvability of finite groups, j. algebra 321(2009) 1555--1560.] investigated the non-abelian simple groups in which some maximal subgroups have primes indice. in this note we show that this result can be applied to prove that the finite groups in which every non-nilpotent maximal subgroup has prime index aresolvable.

abstractlet w be a non-empty subset of a free group. the automorphism of a group g is said to be a marginal automorphism, if for all x in g,x^−1alpha(x) in w^*(g), where w^*(g) is the marginal subgroup of g.in this paper, we give necessary and sufficient condition for a purelynon-abelian p-group g, such that the set of all marginal automorphismsof g forms an elementary abelian p-group.
