Critical Groups of Simplicial Complexes [PDF]
We generalize the theory of critical groups from graphs to simplicial complexes. Specifically, given a simplicial complex, we define a family of abelian groups in terms of combinatorial Laplacian operators, generalizing the construction of the critical ...

Exponent-critical groups [PDF]
Abstract We define and investigate the property of being “exponent-critical” for a finite group. A finite group is said to be exponent-critical if its exponent is not the least common multiple of the exponents of its proper non-abelian subgroups. We explore properties of exponent-critical groups and give a characterization of such groups.

Eigenvalues and critical groups of Adinkras
Adinkras are signed graphs used to study supersymmetry in physics. We provide an introduction to these objects, and study the properties of their signed adjacency and signed Laplacian matrices. These matrices each have exactly two distinct eigenvalues (of equal multiplicity), making Adinkras closely related to the notions of strongly regular graphs. We

The concept of critical group was introduced by D. C. Cross (as reported byG. Higman in [5]): a finite group is calledcriticalif it is not contained in the variety generated by its proper factors. (Thefactorsof a groupGare the groups H/K where KH ≦G, and H/K is aproper factorofGunlessH = GandK=1).

A multiplicity theorem for parametric superlinear (p,q)-equations [PDF]
We consider a parametric nonlinear Robin problem driven by the sum of a \(p\)-Laplacian and of a \(q\)-Laplacian (\((p,q)\)-equation). The reaction term is \((p-1)\)-superlinear but need not satisfy the Ambrosetti-Rabinowitz condition.

We consider a nonlinear elliptic equation driven by the (p, q)–Laplacian plus an indefinite potential. The reaction is (p − 1)–superlinear and the boundary term is parametric and concave.

A Remark on Critical Groups [PDF]
Problem 24 of Hanna Neumann's book [3] reads: Does there exist, for a given integer n > 0, a Cross variety that is generated by its k-generator groups and contains (k+n)-generator critical groups? In such a variety, is every critical group that needs more than k generators a factor of a k-generator critical group, or at least of the free group of ...

The Fucik spectrum and critical groups [PDF]
We compute critical groups of zero for variational functionals arising from semilinear elliptic boundary value problems with jumping nonlinearities when the asymptotic limits of the nonlinearity fall in certain parts of Type (II) regions between curves of the Fucik spectrum.

Constant sign and nodal solutions for nonlinear Robin equations with locally defined source term
We consider a parametric Robin problem driven by a nonlinear, nonhomogeneous differential operator which includes as special cases the p-Laplacian and the (p,q)-Laplacian. The source term is parametric and only locally defined (that is, in a neighborhood
