It is shown that a Cayley multigraph over a group G with generating multiset S is integral (i.e., all of its eigenvalues are integers) if S lies in the integral cone over the boolean algebra generated by the normal subgroups of G. The converse holds in the case when G is abelian. This in particular gives an alternative, character-theoretic proof of a theorem of Bridges and Mena (1982). We exten...

This paper proves a finiteness result for families of integral points on a semiabelian variety minus a divisor, generalizing the corresponding result of Faltings for abelian varieties. Combined with the main theorem of the first part of this paper, this gives a finiteness statement for integral points on a closed subvariety of a semiabelian variety, minus a divisor. In addition, the last two se...

We prove Abelian magnetic monopole dominance in the string tension of QCD. Abelian and monopole dominance in low energy physics of QCD has been confirmed for various quantities by recent Monte Carlo simulations of lattice gauge theory. In order to prove this dominance, we use the reformulation of continuum Yang-Mills theory in the maximal Abelian gauge as a deformation of a topological field th...

given a non-abelian finite group $g$, let $pi(g)$ denote the set of prime divisors of the order of $g$ and denote by $z(g)$ the center of $g$. thetextit{ prime graph} of $g$ is the graph with vertex set $pi(g)$ where two distinct primes $p$ and $q$ are joined by an edge if and only if $g$ contains an element of order $pq$ and the textit{non-commuting graph} of $g$ is the graph with the vertex s...

it was shown in [a. azimifard, e. samei, n. spronk, jfa 256 (2009)] that the zl-amenability constant of a finite group is always at least~$1$, with equality if and only if the group is abelian. it was also shown in [a. azimifard, e. samei, n. spronk, op cit.] that for any finite non-abelian group this invariant is at least $301/300$, but the proof relies crucially on a deep result of d. a. ride...

In this article, by using a partial on locally compact semi-direct product groups, we present a compatible extension of the Fourier transform. As a consequence, we extend the fundamental theorems of Abelian Fourier transform to non-Abelian case.
