We prove the semisimplicity conjecture for A-motives over finitely generated fields K. This conjecture states that the rational Tate modules V_p(M) of a semisimple A-motive M are semisimple as representations of the absolute Galois group of…

Let $G$ be the simple algebraic group $\mathrm{SL}_2$ defined over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $p > 0$. Using results of A. Parker, we develop a method which gives, for any $q \in \mathbb{N}$, a closed form…

Suppose $G$ is a simple group. For any nontrivial elements $g$ and $h$, $g$ can be written as a finite product of conjugates of $h$ or the inverse of $h$. G is called uniformly simple if the length of such an expression is uniformly…

Rosenbrock's theorem on polynomial system matrices is a classical result in linear systems theory that relates the Smith-McMillan form of a rational matrix $G$ with the Smith forms of an irreducible polynomial system matrix $P$ giving rise…

Given a quaternionic form G of a p-adic classical group (p odd) we classify all cuspidal irreducible representations of G with coefficients in an algebraically closed field of characteristic different from p. We prove two theorems: At…

We find upper and lower bounds of the multiplicities of irreducible admissible representations $\pi$ of a semisimple Lie group $G$ occurring in the induced representations $Ind_H^G\tau$ from irreducible representations $\tau$ of a closed…

By a quasi-representation of a group $G$ we mean an approximately multiplicative map of $G$ to the unitary group of a unital $C^*$-algebra. A quasi-representation induces a partially defined map at the level $K$-theory. In the early 90s…

Given a connected linear algebraic group $G$, we descrive the subgroup of $G$ generated by all semisimple elements.

The Exel-Loring formula asserts that two topological invariants associated to a pair of almost commuting unitary matrices coincide. Such a pair can be viewed as a quasi-representation of $\mathbb{Z}^2$. We give a generalization of this…

Recent results of Qu and Tuarnauceanu describe explicitly the finite p-groups which are not elementary abelian and have the property that the number of their subgroups is maximal among p-groups of a given order. We complement these results…

We conjecture that if $G$ is a finite primitive group and if $g$ is an element of $G$, then either the element $g$ has a cycle of length equal to its order, or for some $r,m$ and $k$, the group $G\leq S_m\wr S_r$, preserving a product…

A Chevalley type integral basis for the ortho-symplectic Lie superalgebra is constructed. The simple modules of the ortho-symplectic supergroup over an algebraically closed field of prime characteristic not equal to 2 are classified, where…

Let $\mathbb{F}$ be an algebraically closed field and $G$ be an almost quasi-simple group. An important problem in representation theory is to classify the subgroups $H<G$ and $\mathbb{F} G$-modules $L$ such that the restriction…

Using the general framework of polynomial representations defined by Doty and generalizing the definition given by Doty, Nakano and Peters for $G = \mathrm{GL}_n$, we consider polynomial representations of $G_r T$ for an arbitrary closed…

For a finite loop $Q$, let $P (Q)$ be the set of elements that can be represented as a product containing each element of $Q$ precisely once. Motivated by the recent proof of the Hall-Paige conjecture, we prove several universal…

For a unital ring $S$, an $S$-linear quasigroup is a unital $S$-module, with automorphisms $\rho$ and $\lambda$ giving a (nonassociative) multiplication $x\cdot y=x^\rho+y^\lambda$. If $S$ is the field of complex numbers, then ordinary…

The first part of this article is devoted to characterizing the cocycles $\alpha$ of a finite group $G$ that give rise to faithful projective representations of $G$. We prove that a $p$-group $G$ admits a faithful irreducible projective…

Let~$G$ be a unitary group of an~$\epsilon$-hermitian form~$h$ given over a nonarchimedean local field~$F_0$ of odd residue characteristic. We introduce a geometric combinatoric condition under which we prove "Intertwining implies…

We show that a minimal clone has a nontrivial weakly abelian representation iff it has a nontrivial abelian representation, and that in this case all representations are weakly abelian.

Let $G$ be a finite cyclic group. Every sequence $S$ over $G$ can be written in the form $S=(n_1g)\cdot...\cdot(n_kg)$ where $g\in G$ and $n_1,\cdots,n_k\in[1,{\hbox{\rm ord}}(g)]$, and the index $\ind S$ of $S$ is defined to be the minimum…
