Let $G$ be a simple algebraic group of type $E_6$ over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p>0$. We determine the submodule structure of the Weyl modul es with highest weight $r\omega_1$ for $0\leq r\leq p-1$, where $\omega_1$…

We fill in the details in a procedure outlined by Serre for drawing pictures of compact real Lie groups. In the case of Sp($2n$), the picture generated by the method is connected with abelian varieties over a number field or a finite field.…

Each Abelian subgroup of the fundamental group of a compact and locally simply connected $d$-dimensional length space with no conjugate points is isomorphic to $\mathbb{Z}^k$ for some $0 \leq k \leq d$. It follows from this and previously…

Following Isaacs (see [Isa08, p. 94]), we call a normal subgroup N of a finite group G large, if $C_G(N) \leq N$, so that N has bounded index in G. Our principal aim here is to establish some general results for systematically producing…

We prove that some subquotient categories of exact categories are abelian. This generalizes a result by Koenig-Zhu in the case of (algebraic) triangulated categories. As a particular case, if an exact category B with enough projectives and…

We study groups having the property that every non-abelian subgroup contains its centralizer. We describe various classes of infinite groups in this class, and address a problem of Berkovich regarding the classification of finite $p$-groups…

We construct a family of homomorphisms between Weyl modules for affine Lie algebras in characteristic p, which supports our conjecture on the strong linkage principle in this context. We also exhibit a large class of reducible Weyl modules…

We introduce and study a new class of representations of surface groups into Lie groups of Hermitian type, called {\em weakly maximal} representations. We prove that weakly maximal representations are discrete and injective and we describe…

We classify, up to isomorphism, all gradings by an arbitrary abelian group on simple finitary Lie algebras of linear transformations (special linear, orthogonal and symplectic) on infinite-dimensional vector spaces over an algebraically…

Let $P$ be a finite $p$-group and $p$ be an odd prime. Let $\mathcal{A}_p(P)_{\geq2}$ be a poset consisting of elementary abelian subgroups of rank at least 2. If the derived subgroup $P'\cong C_p\times C_p$, then the spheres occurring in…

We classify simple linearly compact n-Lie superalgebras with n>2 over a field F of characteristic 0. The classification is based on a bijective correspondence between non-abelian n-Lie superalgebras and transitive Z-graded Lie superalgebras…

For an arbitrary simple Lie algebra $\g$ and an arbitrary root of unity $q,$ the closed subsets of the Weyl alcove of the quantum group $U_q(\g)$ are classified. Here a closed subset is a set such that if any two weights in the Weyl alcove…

We announce the classification of Sato-Tate groups of abelian threefolds over number fields; there are 410 possible conjugacy classes of closed subgroups of USp(6) that occur. We summarize the key points of the "upper bound" aspect of the…

The article deals with profinite groups in which the centralizers are abelian (CA-groups), that is, with profinite commutativity-transitive groups. It is shown that such groups are virtually pronilpotent. More precisely, let G be a…

We extend results on transitive self-similar abelian subgroups of the group of automorphisms $\mathcal{A}_m$ of an $m$-ary tree $\mathcal{T}_m$ in \cite{BS}, to the general case where the permutation group induced on the first level of the…

We prove that infinite definably simple locally finite groups of finite centraliser dimension are simple groups of Lie type over locally finite fields. Then, we identify conditions on automorphisms of a stable group that make it resemble…

We consider closed, Weyl-transitive groups of automorphisms of thick buildings. For each element of such a group, we derive a combinatorial formula for its scale and establish the existence of a tidy subgroup for it that equals the…

We describe (braided-)commutative algebras with non-degenerate multiplicative form in certain braided monoidal categories, corresponding to abelian metric Lie algebras (so-called Drinfeld categories). We also describe local modules over…

In the category of finitely generated modules over an artinian ring, we classify all the abelian exact subcategories closed under predecessors or, equivalently, all the split torsion pairs with torsion-free class closed under quotients.

Regular groups and fields are common generalizations of minimal and quasi-minimal groups and fields, so the conjectures that minimal or quasi-minimal fields are algebraically closed have their common generalization to the conjecture that…
