On the polycirculant conjecture

Abstract

In the paper the foundation of the $k$-orbit theory is developed. The theory opens a new simple way to the investigation of groups and multidimensional symmetries. The relations between combinatorial symmetry properties of a $k$-orbit and its automorphism group are found. It is found the local property of a $k$-orbit. The difference between 2-closed group and $m$-closed group for $m>2$ is discovered. It is explained the specific property of Petersen graph automorphism group $n$-orbit. It is shown that any non-trivial primitive group contains a transitive imprimitive subgroup and as a result it is proved that the automorphism group of a vertex transitive graph (2-closed group) contains a regular element (polycirculant conjecture). Using methods of the $k$-orbit theory, it is considered different possibilities of permutation representation of a finite group and shown that the most informative, relative to describing of the structure of a finite group, is the permutation representation of the lowest degree. Using this representation it is obtained a simple proof of the W. Feit, J.G. Thompson theorem: Solvability of groups of odd order. It is described the enough simple structure of lowest degree representation of finite groups and found a way to constructing of the simple full invariant of a finite group. To the end, using methods of $k$-orbit theory, it is obtained one of possible polynomial solutions of the graph isomorphism problem.

A Theory of Scales and Orbit Covers

This paper develops a formal theory of musical scales and their harmonic coverings and introduces orbit covers: coverings obtained by translating a fixed subset across a scale via a group action. Orbit covers generalize familiar constructions, such as the covering of the diatonic scale by tertian triads, and are motivated by the search for a generalized harmonic framework extending common-practice tonality. We model modes as group structures associated with pitch-class sets and scales as torsors, introducing scale covers and, in particular, orbit covers. To each orbit cover we associate a nerve complex encoding its intersection structure and associated topological invariants. We classify triadic orbit covers of heptatonic scales up to affine symmetry and nerve isomorphism. These results support a broader theory of harmonic organization with analytical and compositional applications.
