Unsolved Problems in Group Theory. The Kourovka Notebook

This is a collection of open problems in group theory proposed by hundreds of mathematicians from all over the world. It has been published every 2-4 years in Novosibirsk since 1965. This is the 19th edition, which contains 111 new problems and a number of comments on about 1000 problems from the previous editions.Comment: A few new solutions and references have been added or update

Many concepts of abstract algebra have facilitated through the construction of graphs which are used as tools in computer science. Conversely, graph theory has also helped to characterize certain algebraic properties of abstract algebraic structures. In this survey, we highlight the rich interplay between the two topics viz groups and power graphs from groups. In the last decade, extensive contribution has been made towards the investigation of power graphs. Our main motive is to provide a complete survey on the connectedness of power graphs and proper power graphs, the Laplacian and adjacency spectrum of power graph, isomorphism, and automorphism of power graphs, characterization of power graphs in terms of groups. Apart from the survey of results, this paper also contains some new material such as the contents of Section 2 (which describes the interesting case of the power graph of the Mathieu group M_{11}) and subsection 6.1 (where conditions are discussed for the reduced power graph to be not connected). We conclude this paper by presenting a set of open problems and conjectures on power graphs.Publisher PDFPeer reviewe

Algebraic Structures of Neutrosophic Triplets, Neutrosophic Duplets, or Neutrosophic Multisets

Neutrosophy (1995) is a new branch of philosophy that studies triads of the form (, , ), where is an entity {i.e. element, concept, idea, theory, logical proposition, etc.}, is the opposite of , while is the neutral (or indeterminate) between them, i.e., neither nor .Based on neutrosophy, the neutrosophic triplets were founded, which have a similar form (x, neut(x), anti(x)), that satisfy several axioms, for each element x in a given set.This collective book presents original research papers by many neutrosophic researchers from around the world, that report on the state-of-the-art and recent advancements of neutrosophic triplets, neutrosophic duplets, neutrosophic multisets and their algebraic structures – that have been defined recently in 2016 but have gained interest from world researchers. Connections between classical algebraic structures and neutrosophic triplet / duplet / multiset structures are also studied. And numerous neutrosophic applications in various fields, such as: multi-criteria decision making, image segmentation, medical diagnosis, fault diagnosis, clustering data, neutrosophic probability, human resource management, strategic planning, forecasting model, multi-granulation, supplier selection problems, typhoon disaster evaluation, skin lesson detection, mining algorithm for big data analysis, etc
