Let $G=F\Gamma$ be a factorization of a finite group, with neither factor assumed normal and with $F\cap\Gamma$ allowed to be nontrivial. We prove that $\exp(G)$ divides $\operatorname{lcm}(|F|,|\Gamma|)$, or equivalently that $\gcd([G:F],[G:\Gamma])\exp(G)$ divides $|G|$. This answers a cohomological divisibility question posed by Natale. Combining the group-theoretic divisibility with Natale's exponent bound and a lifting argument, we prove Kashina's exponent conjecture, in the arbitrary-field formulation of Etingof and Gelaki, for every finite-dimensional semisimple and cosemisimple Hopf algebra $H$ over a field $k$ for which $\operatorname{Rep}(H\otimes_k\overline{k})$ is group-theoretical. The same argument proves the corresponding degree-three cohomological divisibility for coefficients in an arbitrary $G$-module. For complex group-theoretical categories, we also establish Frobenius-Schur exponent divisibility under a cohomological factorization hypothesis, without assuming a fiber functor. We derive applications to low-dimensional Hopf algebras and abelian extensions.
Let $K$ be an imaginary quadratic field and let $p \ge 5$ be a prime that is unramified in $K$. Let $\mathcal{A}_f/\mathbb{Q}$ be an abelian variety of $\mathrm{GL}_2$-type associated with a weight-two modular form $f$, with good non-ordinary reduction at $p$, and suppose that $(f,K)$ satisfies the generalized Heegner...
Ozaki proved that every finite $p$-group occurs as the Galois group of a maximal unramified $p$-extension of a number field. Hajir, Maire and Ramakrishna made this theorem effective, obtaining a base-field degree of order $|G|$. In this article, we reduce that degree by taking the Frattini structure of $G$ into account...
Let $d(G)$ denote the least size of a generating set of a finite group $G$. We prove that if $G$ has a family $\mathcal H$ of subgroups such that $d(H)\leq d$ for every $H\in\mathcal H$ and $\gcd\{\lvert G:H\rvert:H\in\mathcal H\}=1$, then $d(G)\leq d+1$. This gives an affirmative answer to Kourovka Problem 21.87. The...
Let $G$ be a torsion-free one-ended hyperbolic group and let $\phi\in\operatorname{Aut} (G)$. We prove that the mapping torus, or suspension, $$ M:=G_{\phi}=G\rtimes_\phi \mathbb{Z} $$ has solvable conjugacy problem. This builds on the pioneering work of Pr\'eaux who solved the conjugacy problem for all (geometrisable)...
We show that von Neumann algebras of fundamental groups of closed orientable surfaces of genus $g\geq2$ are free group factors on $2g-1$generators. The key technical ingredient involves a proof that the element $w=ABA^{-1}B^{-1}$ of the free group $\mathbb{F}_{2}=\langle A,B\rangle$ is freely complemented in the group...
Let $E/\mathbb Q$ be an elliptic curve and for each prime $p$, let $N_p$ denote the number of points of $E$ modulo $p$. The original version of the conjecture of Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer asserts that $\prod \limits _{p \leq x} \frac{N_p}{p} \sim C (\log x) ^{\text{rank}(E(\mathbb Q))}$ as $x \to \infty$. In this paper...
