For connected reductive groups G over a finite extension F of Q_p and L the maximal unramified extension of F we study the sets H_{\mu, N}(G) of elements b in G(L) with given Hodge points of (b\sigma), (b\sigma)^2, ..., (b\sigma)^N. We…

We explore finitely generated groups by studying the nilpotent towers and the various Lie algebras attached to such groups. Our main goal is to relate an isomorphism extension problem in the Postnikov tower to the existence of certain…

For a finite group G, we study the higher commuting probabilities, namely the probabilities that r randomly chosen elements of G commute pairwise, together with the corresponding numbers of simultaneous conjugacy classes of commuting…

In this work we discuss whether the non-commuting graph of a finite group can determine its nilpotency. More precisely, Abdollahi, Akbari and Maimani conjectured that if $G$ and $H$ are finite groups with isomorphic non-commuting graphs and…

Let $k$ be a perfect field of odd characteristic $p$ and $X_0$ a smooth connected algebraic variety over $k$ which is assumed to be $W_2(k)$-liftable. In this short note we associate a de Rham bundle to a nilpotent Higgs bundle over $X_0$…
