Combinatorial designs and finite group theory form a rich intersection of discrete mathematics and algebra, where structured arrangements of elements are studied alongside the algebraic properties of ...

Commuting graphs have emerged as a powerful framework for elucidating complex relationships within finite group theory. In these graphs, vertices typically represent non-central elements of a group, ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. In 2003, a German graduate student named Britta Späth encountered the McKay conjecture, one of the biggest open problems in the ...

In 2003, a German graduate student named Britta Späth encountered the McKay conjecture, one of the biggest open problems in the mathematical realm known as group theory. At first her goals were ...
