Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a simple Lie algebra of exceptional type over an algebraically closed field $k$, and let $G$ be a simple linear algebraic group with Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$. For $\mathrm{char} \, k =p >0$, we present a complete…

By a proper cover of a finite group G we mean an extension of a nontrivial finite group by G. Our purpose is to show that a proper cover of a finite simple group L of Lie type always contains an element whose order differs from the element…

A group is said to be C*-simple if its reduced C*-algebra is simple. We establish an intrinsic (group-theoretic) characterization of groups with this property. Specifically, we prove that a discrete group is C*-simple if and only if it has…

Given a minuscule representation of a simple Lie algebra, we find an algebraic model for the action of a regular element and show that these models can be glued together over the adjoint quotient, viewed as the set of all regular conjugacy…

Let $(A,\cdot,\omega)$ be a simple $n$-Lie Poisson algebra over a field of zero characteristic, $ 1 \in A.$ Then we prove that the $n$-Lie algebra $A^{[1]}/(A^{[1]}\cap Z)$ is simple, where $A^{[1]}$ denotes the derived $n$-Lie ideal and…

In this paper we show that if S is a simple classical group, a group G is contained in inner-diagonal automorphisms of S and contains S, and H is a solvable Hall subgroup of G, then there exists five conjugates of H, whose intersection is…

Let a real Lie group $G$ have a $C^\infty$ action on a real manifold $M$. Assume every nontrivial element of $G$ has nowhere dense fixpoint set in $M$. First, we show, in every frame bundle, except possibly the $0$th, that each stabilizer…

An element $g$ of a Lie group is called stably elliptic if it is contained in the interior of the set $G^e$ of elliptic elements, characterized by the property that $\mathrm{Ad}(g)$ generates a relatively compact subgroup. Stably elliptic…

If $G$ is a finite classical group, linear or unitary in any characteristic, and orthogonal in odd characteristic, we give an approximate formula for $\chi(g)$ in which the error term is much smaller than the estimate, when $g\in G$ is an…

We solve the long standing problem of classification of standard compact Clifford-Klein forms of homogeneous spaces of simple non-compact real Lie groups under the extra assumption that $G$, $H$, $L$ are simple and absolutely simple. Then…

The covering number of a non-linear character $\chi$ of a finite group $G$ is the least positive integer $k$ such that every irreducible character of $G$ occurs in $\chi^k$. We determine the covering numbers of irreducible characters of the…

Let G be a group and H be a subgroup of G which is either finite or of finite index in G. In this note, we give some characterizations for normality of H in G. As a consequence we get a very short and elementary proof of the Main Theorem of…

We show, when $G$ is a nilpotent or reductive Lie group, that the entropy of any surjective endomorphism coincides with the entropy of its restriction to the toral component of the center of $G$. In particular, if $G$ is a semi-simple Lie…

For a finite group $G$, let $N(G)$ denote the set of conjugacy class sizes of $G$. We show that if every finite group $G$ with trivial center such that $N(G)$ equals to $N(Alt_n)$, where $n>1361$ and at least one of numbers $n$ or $n-1$ are…

New continuous group transforms, together with their discretization over a lattice of any density and admissible symmetry, are defined for a general compact simple Lie groups of rank $2\leq n<\infty$. Rank 1 transforms are known. Rank 2…

The moduli space for a flat G-bundle over the two-torus is completely determined by its holonomy representation. When G is compact, connected, and simply connected, we show that the moduli space is homeomorphic to a product of two tori mod…

Let G be a Lie group with Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$, $h \in \frak{g}$ an element for which the derivation ad(h) defines a 3-grading of $\mathfrak{g}$ and $\tau_G$ an involutive automorphism of G inducing on $\mathfrak{g}$ the involution…

Let $G$ be the alternating group $\mbox{Alt}(n)$ on $n$ letters. We prove that for any $\varepsilon > 0$ there exists $N = N(\varepsilon) \in \mathbb{N}$ such that whenever $n \geq N$ and $A$, $B$, $C$, $D$ are normal subsets of $G$ each of…

Let $N$ be a normal subgroup of a finite group $G$. In this paper, we consider the elements $g$ of $N$ such that $\chi(g)\neq 0$ for all irreducible characters $\chi$ of $G$. Such an element is said to be non-vanishing in $G$. Let $p$ be a…
