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…

For an arbitrary finite monoid $M$ and subgroup $K$ of the unit group of $M$, we prove that there is a bijection between irreducible representations of $M$ with nontrivial $K$-fixed space and irreducible representations of $\mathcal{H}_K$,…

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 $X_0$…
Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $2$. We consider the commuting variety and the commuting nilpotent variety of the Lie algebra $\mathfrak{sp}_{2n}$, namely the sets $\mathcal{C}_2(\mathfrak{sp}_{2n})=\{ (x,y) \in…
Let R be the connected component of the identity of the variety of representations of a finitely generated nilpotent group N into a connected reductive complex affine algebraic group G. We determine the mixed Hodge structure on the…
We study the combinatorial equivalence of separable elements in types $A$ and $B$. A bijection is constructed from the set of separable permutations in the symmetric group $S_{n+1}$ to the set of separable signed permutations in the…
Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field. Consider a reductive group $G$ over $k$. Let $X$ be a projective variety over $k$ with a $G$-action and let $L$ be a very ample $G$-linearized line bundle on $X$. Suppose that $L$ descends to the…
We prove that for no nontrivial ordered abelian group G, the ordered power series field R((G)) admits an exponential, i.e. an isomorphism between its ordered additive group and its ordered multiplicative group of positive elements, but that…
Let A be a character sheaf on a reductive connected group G over an algebraically closed field. Assuming that the characteristic is not bad, we show that for certain conjugacy classes D in G the restriction of A to D is a local system up to…
In this paper we extend a result for representations of the Additive group $G_a$ given in [3] to the Heisenberg group $H_1$. Namely, if $p$ is greater than 2d then all $d$-dimensional characteristic $p$ representations for $H_1$ can be…
In this paper we give an intimate connection between the characteristic zero representation theories of the Additive and Heisenberg groups, and their characteristic p >0 theories when p is much larger than the dimension a representation. In…
Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic 2. We prove that the restricted nilpotent commuting variety ${\mathcal C}$, that is the set of pairs of $(n\times n)$-matrices $(A,B)$ such that $A^2=B^2=[A,B]=0$, is…
Let $P(G)$ denotes the set of sizes of fibers of non-trivial commutators of the commutator word map. Here, we prove that $|P(G)|=1$, for any finite group $G$ of nilpotency class $3$ with exactlly two conjugacy class sizes. We also show that…
Let $\mathcal{N}_{\mathfrak{g}^*}$ be the variety of nilpotent elements in the dual of the Lie algebra of a reductive algebraic group over an algebraically closed field. In \cite{Lu2} Lusztig proposes a definition of a partition of…
