this is a survey article on centralizers of finite‎ ‎subgroups in locally finite‎, ‎simple groups or lfs-groups as we‎ ‎will call them‎. ‎we mention some of the open problems about‎ ‎centralizers of subgroups in lfs-groups and applications of the‎ ‎known information about the centralizers of subgroups to the‎ ‎structure of the locally finite group‎. ‎we also prove the‎ ‎following‎: ‎let $g$ be...

let g = (v,e) be a locally finite graph, i.e. a graph in which every vertex has finitely many adjacent vertices. in this paper, we associate a topology to g, called graphic topology of g and we show that it is an alexandroff topology, i.e. a topology in which intersec- tion of every family of open sets is open. then we investigate some properties of this topology. our motivation is to give an e...

a result of dixon‎, ‎evans and smith shows that if $g$ is a locally (soluble-by-finite) group whose proper subgroups are (finite rank)-by-abelian‎, ‎then $g$ itself has this property‎, ‎i.e‎. ‎the commutator subgroup of $g$ has finite rank‎. ‎it is proved here that if $g$ is a locally (soluble-by-finite) group whose proper subgroups have minimax commutator subgroup‎, ‎then also the commutator s...

it is proved here that if $g$ is a locally graded group satisfying the minimal condition on subgroups which are not locally supersoluble, then $g$ is either locally supersoluble or a vcernikov group. the same conclusion holds for locally finite groups satisfying the weak minimal condition on non-(locally supersoluble) subgroups. as a consequence, it is shown that any infinite locally graded gro...

‎we pursue further our‎ ‎investigation‎, ‎begun in [h.~smith‎, ‎groups with all subgroups subnormal or‎ ‎nilpotent-by-{c}hernikov‎, ‎emph{rend‎. ‎sem‎. ‎mat‎. ‎univ‎. ‎padova}‎ ‎126 (2011)‎, ‎245--253] and continued in [g.~cutolo and h.~smith‎, ‎locally finite groups with all subgroups‎ ‎subnormal or nilpotent-by-{c}hernikov‎. ‎emph{centr‎. ‎eur‎. ‎j‎. ‎math.} (to appear)] ‎‎‎of groups $g$ in w...

we characterize strictly diagonal type of embeddings offinitary symmetric groups in terms of cardinality and the characteristic. namely, we prove thefollowing.let $kappa$ be an infinite cardinal. if$g=underset{i=1}{stackrel{infty}bigcup} g_i,$ where $ g_i=fsym(kappa n_i)$,$(h=underset{i=1}{stackrel{infty}bigcup}h_i, $ where $ h_i=alt(kappa n_i) ), $ is a group of strictly diagonal type and$xi=(...

In this work, we study direct limits of finite dimensional basic classical simple Lie superalgebras and obtain the conjugacy classes of Cartan subalgebras under the group of automorphisms.

In this paper, we study $L^p$-conjecture on locally compact hypergroups and by some technical proofs we give some sufficient and necessary conditions  for a weighted Lebesgue space  $L^p(K,w)$ to be a convolution Banach algebra, where $1<p<infty$, $K$ is a locally compact hypergroup and $w$ is a weight function on $K$.  Among the other things, we also show that if $K$ is a locally compact hyper...
