In this paper we describe how one can obtain Lie group structures on the group of (vertical) bundle automorphisms for a locally convex principal bundle P over the compact manifold M. This is done by first considering Lie group structures on…

Let $G$ be a finite group having a normal $p$-subgroup $N$ that contains its centralizer $\text{C}_{G}(N)$, and let $R$ be a $p$-adic ring. It is shown that any finite $p$-group of units of augmentation one in $RG$ which normalizes $N$ is…

The article establishes a long list of rigidity properties of lattices in G = SO(n,1) with n>=3 and G = SU(n,1) with n>=2 that are analogous to superrigidity of lattices in higher-rank Lie groups. The arguments are set in the context of…

Let k be an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic and G a simple algebraic group defined over k. Under the assumption that the characteristic is a good prime for G, we determine a maximal G-stable subvariety U' of the…

We classify irreducible unitary representations of the group of all infinite matrices over a $p$-adic field ($p\ne 2$) with integer elements equipped with a natural topology. Any irreducible representation passes through a group $GL$ of…

For a finite group $G$, let $\sigma(G)$ be the number of subgroups of $G$ and $\sigma_\iota(G)$ the number of isomorphism types of subgroups of $G$. Let $L=L_r(p^e)$ denote a simple group of Lie type, rank $r$, over a field of order $p^e$…

Suppose that $p$ is a prime, $G$ is a finite group and $H$ is a strongly $p$-embedded subgroup in $G$. We consider the possibility that $F^*(H)$ is a simple group of Lie rank 2 defined in characteristic $p$.

A complex irreducible character of a finite group G is said to be p-constant, for some prime p dividing the order of G, if it takes constant value at the set of p-singular elements of G. In this paper we classify irreducible p-constant…

Let $G$ be a group and $H \le K \le G$. We say that $H$ is $c$-embedded in $G$ with respect to $K$ if there is a subgroup $B$ of $G$ such that $G = HB$ and $H \cap B \le Z(K)$. Given a finite group $G$, a prime number $p$ and a Sylow…

Let G be a finitely presented group, and let p be a prime. Then G is 'large' (respectively, 'p-large') if some normal subgroup with finite index (respectively, index a power of p) admits a non-abelian free quotient. This paper provides a…

Let $A$ and $G$ be finite groups such that $A$ acts coprimely on $G$ by automorphisms. For any fixed prime divisor $p$ of $|G|$, we provide a complete characterization of the structure of a group $G$ in which every maximal $A$-invariant…

We consider a problem on the conditions of a compact Lie group G that the loop space of the p-completed classifying space be a p-compact group for a set of primes. In particular, we discuss the classifying spaces BG that are p-compact for…

We prove, for certain pairs G,G of finite groups of Lie type, that the p-fusion systems for G and G' are equivalent. In other words, there is an isomorphism between a Sylow p-subgroup of G and one of G' which preserves p-fusion. This…

We study finite groups which possess a strongly p-embedded subgroup for some odd prime p. The main results of the paper will be applied in the ongoing project to classify the simple groups of local characteristic p.

In this article we discuss a certain p-adic analogue of classical Schwarzian triangle groups, an analogue which is related to Mumford's uniformization of p-adic analytic curves. p-adic Schwarzian triangle groups are defined to be the Galois…

First let $G$ be a completely solvable Lie group. We recall the proof of the following result: Any closed subgroup of $G$ possesses a unique syndetic hull in $G$. As a consequence we conclude that any uniform subgroup $\Gamma$ of $G$ is…

We study the Oort groups for a prime p, i.e. finite groups G such that every G-Galois branched cover of smooth curves over an algebraically closed field of characteristic p lifts to a G-cover of curves in characteristic 0. We prove that all…

Given a finite group $G$ and a prime $p$, let $\mathcal{A}_p(G)$ be the poset of nontrivial elementary abelian $p$-subgroups of $G$. The group $G$ satisfies the Quillen dimension property at $p$ if $\mathcal{A}_p(G)$ has non-zero homology…

Let $p$ be a fixed prime number and let $R$ denote a uniserial $p$-adic space group of dimension $d_x=(p-1)p^{x-1}$ and with cyclic point group of order $p^x$. In this short note we prove that all the quotients of $R$ of size bigger than or…

It is a basic fact in infinite-dimensional Lie theory that the unit group G(A) of a continuous inverse algebra A is a Lie group. We describe criteria ensuring that the Lie group G(A) is regular in Milnor's sense. Notably, G(A) is regular if…
