We show how one can associate to a given class of finite type G-structures a classifying Lie algebroid. The corresponding Lie groupoid gives models for the different geometries that one can find in the class, and encodes also the different…

We present an alternate proof of Giraud's Theorem based on the fact that given the conditions on a category E for being a topos, its objects are sheaves by construction. Generalizing sets to R-modules for R a commutative ring, we prove that…

Let G be a connected linear algebraic group over an algebraically closed field k, and let H be a connected closed subgroup of G. We prove that the homogeneous variety G/H is a rational variety over k whenever H is solvable, or when dim(G/H)…

We show that if $G$ is a linear algebraic group over a number field and if $G$ is not a torus then for all but finitely many primes $p$ the $p$-adic completion of $G$ does not possess a Frobenius lift that is "Lie invariant mod $p$" (in the…

Let G be a finite group. The Plesken Lie algebra L[G] is a subalgebra of the complex group algebra C[G] and admits a direct-sum decomposition into simple Lie algebras based on the ordinary character theory of G. In this paper we review the…

Let $G$ be a group. We define the coprime graph of subgroups of $G$, denoted by $\mathcal P(G)$, is a graph whose vertex set is the set of all proper subgroups of $G$, and two distinct vertices are adjacent if and only if the order of the…

Let G be a finite non-abelian simple group and let p be a prime. We classify all pairs (G,p) such that the sum of the complex irreducible character degrees of G is greater than the index of a Sylow p-subgroup of G. Our classification…

We give a new definition of a $p$-adic $L$-function for a mixed signature character of a real quadratic field and for a nontrivial ray class character of an imaginary quadratic field. We then state a $p$-adic Stark conjecture for this…

Let $G$ be a simple algebraic group over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p>0$ and suppose that $p$ is a very good prime for $G$. We prove that any maximal Lie subalgebra $M$ of $\mathfrak{g} = {\rm Lie}(G)$ with ${\rm…

A connected linear algebraic group G is called a Cayley group if the Lie algebra of G endowed with the adjoint G-action and the group variety of G endowed with the conjugation G-action are birationally G-isomorphic. In particular, the…

It has been known since \cite{Pgroupchunk} that any group definable in an $o$-minimal expansion of the real field can be equipped with a Lie group structure. It is therefore natural to ask when is a Lie group Lie isomorphic to a group…

We establish a sufficient condition for a finitely generated pro-$p$ group to be accessible in terms of finite generation of the module of ends.

We consider families of abelian Galois coverings of the line. When the Jacobian of the general element is totally decomposable, i.e., is isogenous to a product of elliptic curves, we prove that they yield special subvarieties of $\A_g$ if…

We investigate some properties of the $p$-elements of a profinite group $G$. We prove that if $p$ is odd and the probability that a randomly chosen element of $G$ is a $p$-element is positive, then $G$ contains an open prosolvable subgroup.…

The notion of rigidity of Lie algebra is linked to the following problem: when does a Lie brackets $\mu$ on a vector space g satisfy that every Lie bracket $\mu_1$ sufficiently close to $\mu$ is of the form $\mu_1 = P.\mu $ for some P in…

This paper is about the $dfg$/$fsg$ decomposition for groups $G$ definable in $p$-adically closed fields. It is proved that for $G$ definably amenable, $G$ has a definable normal $dfg$ subgroup $H$ such that the quotient $G/H$ is a…

For a given abelian group G, we classify the isomorphism classes of G-gradings on the simple Lie algebras of types A_n (n >= 1), B_n (n >= 2), C_n (n >= 3) and D_n (n > 4), in terms of numerical and group-theoretical invariants. The ground…

Let G be a finitely presented group, and let p be a prime. Then G is 'large' (respectively, 'p-large') if some normal subgroup with finite index (respectively, index a power of p) admits a non-abelian free quotient. This paper provides a…

For a simple algebraic group G in characteristic p, a triple (a,b,c) of positive integers is said to be rigid for G if the dimensions of the subvarieties of G of elements of order dividing a,b,c sum to 2dim G. In this paper we complete the…

Two semisimple algebraic groups of the same type are said to be motivic equivalent if the motives of the associated projective homogeneous varieties of the same type are isomorphic. We give general criteria of motivic equivalence in terms…
