Abstract

The graded Hecke algebra for a finite Weyl group is intimately related to the geometry of the Springer correspondence. A construction of Drinfeld produces an analogue of a graded Hecke algebra for any finite subgroup of GL(V). This paper classifies all the algebras obtained by applying Drinfeld's construction to complex reflection groups. By giving explicit (though nontrivial) isomorphisms, we show that the graded Hecke algebras for finite real reflection groups constructed by Lusztig are all isomorphic to algebras obtained by Drinfeld's construction. The classification shows that there exist algebras obtained from Drinfeld's construction which are not graded Hecke algebras as defined by Lusztig for real as well as complex reflection groups.

Finiteness conditions on skew braces and solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation

A finite non-degenerate set-theoretic solution $(X,r)$ of the Yang-Baxter equation gives rise to a structure skew brace $B(X,r)$ that is a $λ_f$-skew brace, i.e. every element has finitely many $λ$-images, and whose additive group is $FC$. This motivates the study of finiteness conditions on skew braces. We first study the general class of $λ_f$ skew braces and the subclass where the additive group is $FC$, showing that these properties share a resemblance to finite conjugacy, having an analog of the $FC$-center and several analogous structural results. Furthermore, by passing through the structure skew brace of a solution, this property measures whether elements are contained in a finite decomposition factor, identifying a class of infinite solutions that may exhibit similar properties to finite ones. Finally, we show that for a sub skew brace where both groups have finite index, both indices need to coincide and that such a sub skew brace contains a strong left ideal of finite index.

Non-uniform exponential growth and the decay of growth rates in growing dimensions

We provide the first example of a finitely presented, and the first example of a simple, group of non-uniform exponential growth. The example is given by Thompson's group $V$. Our methods also show that the infimal exponential growth rates of $\mathrm{Aut}(F_{2^{n+2}})$ and of $\mathrm{EL}_{2^{n+2}}(R)$, for every finitely generated ring $R$, tend to $1$. As an application, we obtain the first example of an acylindrically hyperbolic group, and the first example of a Kazhdan group, of non-uniform exponential growth.

Solvable Supplements to Normalizers of Cyclic 2-Subgroups

Amberg and Kazarin proved that a finite group is solvable if the normalizer of every cyclic subgroup of prime power order has a solvable supplement. We substantially relax this hypothesis by requiring it only for cyclic $2$-subgroups. This condition, denoted by $\mathrm{SSN}_2$, sharply restricts the nonabelian composition factors of the group to the family $\PSL_2(q)$, where $q\geq7$ is a prime power satisfying $q\equiv3\pmod4$. Conversely, this family is precisely the nonabelian finite simple groups that satisfy $\mathrm{SSN}_2$. Consequently, a finite group satisfying $\mathrm{SSN}_2$ is solvable if and only if it has no section isomorphic to one of these groups.
