We formulate and prove relative versions of several classical decompositions known in the theory of Chevalley groups over commutative rings. As an application we obtain upper estimates for the width of principal congruence subgroups in…
In this paper, we prove two structure theorems for twisted Chevalley groups $G_\sigma (R)$ over a commutative ring $R$ with unity. The first theorem concerns the normality of $E'_\sigma (R,J)$, the elementary congruence subgroups at level…
Let $G$ be the universal Chevalley-Demazure group scheme corresponding to a reduced irreducible root system of rank $\geq 2$, and let $R$ be a commutative ring. We analyze the linear representations $\rho \colon G(R)^+ \to GL_n (K)$ over an…
An estimate on the commutator width is given for Chevalley groups over rings of stable rank 1, and the general method suitable for other rings of small dimension.
We revisit localisation and patching method in the setting of Chevalley groups. Introducing certain subgroups of relative elementary Chevalley groups, we develop relative versions of the conjugation calculus and the commutator calculus in…
The current article continues a series of papers on decomposition of unipotents and its applications. Let $G(\Phi,R)$ be a Chevalley group with a reduced irreducible root system $\Phi$ over a commutative ring $R$. Fix $h\in G(\Phi,R)$. Call…
In this paper we prove that every automorphism of a Chevalley group (or its elementary subgroup) with root system of rank >1 over a commutative ring (with 1/2 for the systems A_2, F_4, B_l, C_l; with 1/2 and 1/3 for the system G_2) is…
This work is the first in a series of papers devoted to constructing tables of structure constants for the complex simple Lie algebras and to finding an explicit form of Chevalley commutator formulas. The work consists of three parts. In…
This article is the second in the series and is devoted to the type G_2. The work consists of two parts. In the first part we calculate the structure constants of the complex simple Lie algebra of type G_2. All structure constants are…
We show how the theory of canonical bases in modified universal enveloping algebras can be used to develop the theory of Chevalley groups over any commutative ring with 1.
In the present paper, which is a direct sequel of our papers [10,11,35] joint with Roozbeh Hazrat, we achieve a further dramatic reduction of the generating sets for commutators of relative elementary subgroups in Chevalley groups. Namely,…
Let $G$ be a simply connected Chevalley--Demazure group scheme without $SL_2$-factors. For any unital commutative ring $R$, we denote by $E(R)$ the standard elementary subgroup of $G(R)$, that is, the subgroup generated by the elementary…
In this paper we consider Chevalley groups over commutative rings with~$1$, constructed by irreducible root systems of rank $>1$. We always suppose that for the systems $A_2, B_\ell, C_\ell, F_4, G_2$ our rings contain $1/2$ and for the…
In this paper we prove that every automorphism of a Chevalley group with the root system G_2 over a commutative ring R with 1/3, generated by all its invertible elements and the ideal 2R is a composition of ring and inner automorphisms.
In the present paper, which is a direct sequel of our paper [12] joint with Roozbeh Hazrat, we prove unrelativised version of the standard commutator formula in the setting of Chevalley groups. Namely, let $\Phi$ be a reduced irreducible…
This thesis investigates certain structural properties of twisted Chevalley groups over commutative rings, focusing on three key problems. Let $R$ be a commutative ring satisfying mild conditions. Let $G_{\pi,\sigma} (\Phi, R)$ denote a…
In this paper we prove that every automorphism of (elementary) adjoint Chevalley group with root system of rank $>1$ over a commutative ring (with 1/2 for the systems $A_2$, $F_4$, $B_l$, $C_l$; with 1/2 and 1/3 for the system $G_2$) is…
The goal of this paper is to establish a general rigidity statement for abstract representations of elementary subgroups of Chevalley groups of rank at least 2 over a class of commutative rings that includes the localizations of 1-generated…
We aim to construct a non-commutative algebraic geometry by using generalised valuations. To this end, we introduce groupoid valuation rings and associate suitable value functions to them. We show that these objects behave rather like their…
In the paper we prove that every automorphism of and elementary adjoint Chevalley group of types $A_l, D_l$, or $E_l$, over local commutative ring with 1/2 is a composition of a ring automorphism and conjugation by some matrix from the…
