The modular reduction of the Steinberg lattice of the general linear group is studied

We define a certain compactifiction of the general linear group and give a modular description for its points with values in arbitrary schemes. This is a first step in the construction of a higher rank generalization of Gieseker's…

Let $G$ be a finite group of Lie type and $\St_k$ be the Steinberg representation of $G$, defined over a field $k$. We are interested in the case where $k$ has prime characteristic~$\ell$ and $\St_k$ is reducible. Tinberg has shown that the…

The Steinberg tensor product theorem is a fundamental result in the modular representation theory of reductive algebraic groups. It describes any finite-dimensional simple module of highest weight $\lambda$ over such a group as the tensor…

This is a preliminary version of the first chapter of a book project on the character theory of finite groups of Lie type. It provides the foundations from the general theory of reductive algebraic groups over a finite field.

Let $G$ be a finite group of Lie type and $\ell$ be a prime which is not equal to the defining characteristic of $G$. In this note we discuss some open problems concerning the $\ell$-modular irreducible representations of $G$. We also…

We study basic geometric properties of some group analogue of affine Springer fibers and compare with the classical Lie algebra affine Springer fibers. The main purpose is to formulate a conjecture that relates the number of irreducible…

Let G be a connected reductive algebraic group defined over an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic. We study a generalization of the notion of G-complete reducibility in the context of Steinberg endomorphisms of G. Our…

We generalize results of P. Schneider and U. Stuhler for GL_l+1 to a reductive algebraic group G defined and split over a non-archimedean local field K. Following their lines, we prove that the generalized Steinberg representations of G…

In this paper we introduce and study the lattice of normal subgroups of a group $G$ that determine solitary quotients. It is closely connected to the well-known lattice of solitary subgroups of $G$ (see \cite{5}). A precise description of…

The work of Bernstein-Zelevinsky and Zelevinsky gives a good understanding of irreducible subquotients of a reducible principal series representation of $GL_n(F)$, $F$ a $p$-adic field (without specifying their multiplicities which is done…

In this paper we study the general group classification of systems of linear second-order ordinary differential equations inspired from earlier works and recent results on the group classification of such systems. Some interesting results…

We prove that the isomorphism problem for group algebras reduces to group algebras over finite extensions of the prime field. In particular, the modular isomorphism problem reduces to finite modular group algebras.

Let $G$ be a simple algebraic group over an algebraically closed field of prime characteristic. If $M$ is a finite dimensional $G$-module that is projective over the Frobenius kernel of $G$, then its character is divisible by the character…

We obtain restrictions on units of even order in the integral group ring $\mathbb{Z}G$ of a finite group $G$ by studying their actions on the reductions modulo $4$ of lattices over the $2$-adic group ring $\mathbb{Z}_2G$. This improves the…

In this paper we begin to study the subalgebra lattice of a Leibniz algebra. In particular, we deal with Leibniz algebras whose subalgebra lattice is modular, upper semi-modular, lower semi-modular, distributive, or dually atomistic. The…

Let $G$ be a finite group and, for a prime $p$, let $S$ be a Sylow $p$-subgroup of $G$. A character $\chi$ of $G$ is called $\Syl_p$-regular if the restriction of $\chi$ to $S$ is the character of the regular representation of $S$. If, in…

We begin to study Steinberg groups associated with a locally isotropic reductive group $G$ over a arbitrary ring. We propose a construction of such a Steinberg group functor as a group object in a certain completion of the category of…

James' submodule theorem is a fundamental result in the representation theory of the symmetric groups and the finite general linear groups. In this note we consider a version of that theorem for a general finite group with a split…
