Let H be a reductive subgroup of a reductive group G over an algebraically closed field k. We consider the action of H on G^n, the n-fold Cartesian product of G with itself, by simultaneous conjugation. We give a purely algebraic…

Let A be an algebra whose group of units U(A) satisfies a Laurent polynomial identity (LPI). We establish conditions on these polynomials in such a way that nil-generated algebras and group algebras with torsion groups over infinite fields…

The trialitarian automorphisms considered in this paper are the outer automorphisms of order 3 of adjoint classical groups of type D_4 over arbitrary fields. A one-to-one correspondence is established between their conjugacy classes and…

The aim of this note is to understand under which conditions invertible modules over a commutative S-algebra in the sense of Elmendorf, Kriz, Mandell and May give rise to elements in the algebraic Picard group of invertible graded modules…

Let $G$ be a connected semisimple algebraic group over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, and let $\th$ be an automorphism of $G$. We give a characterization of $\th$-twisted spherical conjugacy classes in $G$ by a…

We prove that Ad-semisimple conjugacy classes in a connected Lie group $G$ are closed embedded submanifolds of $G$. We also prove that if $\alpha:H\to G$ is a homomorphism of connected Lie groups such that the kernel of $\alpha$ is discrete…

Let $G$ be the linear algebraic group $SL_3$ over a field $k$ of characteristic two. Let $A$ be a finitely generated commutative $k$-algebra on which $G$ acts rationally by $k$-algebra automorphisms. We show that the full cohomology ring…

Recently we showed that Hessenberg matrices are proper to represent conjugacy classes in SL(n,Z). In this paper we focus on the reducibility properties in the set of Hessenberg matrices of SL(3,Z). We investigate the first interesting open…

It is shown that the problem of reduction can be formulated in a uniform way using the theory of invariants. This provides a powerful tool of analysis and it opens the road to new applications of these algebras, beyond the context of…

Let $\Sigma_{g,p}$ be an orientable surface of genus $g$ and of finite type without boundary (i.e. an orientable closed surface with a finite number $p$ of points removed). In this paper we study the R$_{\infty}$-property for the surface…

The automorphisms groups and derivation algebras of all two-dimensional algebras over algebraically closed fields are described.

We consider the properties weak cancellation, K_1-surjectivity, good index theory, and K_1-injectivity for the class of extremally rich C*-algebras, and for the smaller class of isometrically rich C*-algebras. We establish all four…

We introduce the classes of TAP groups, in which various types of algebraic fibring are detected by the non-vanishing of twisted Alexander polynomials. We show that finitely presented LERF groups lie in the class $\mathsf{TAP}_1(R)$ for…

Two automorphisms of a simple stable AF algebra with a finite dimensional lattice of lower semicontinuous traces are shown to be outer conjugate if they act in the same way on the K-group and the extremal traces are scaled by numbers which…

We study generic properties of topological groups in the sense of Baire category. First we investigate countably infinite (discrete) groups. We extend a classical result of B. H. Neumann, H. Simmons and A. Macintyre on algebraically closed…

In 1995, S. Adams and G. Stuck as well as A. Zeghib independently provided a classification of non-compact Lie groups which can act isometrically and locally effectively on compact Lorentzian manifolds. In the case that the corresponding…

We continue the study of character sheaves on a not necessarily connected reductive group. We prove orthogonality formulas for certain characteristic functions.

We show that the finiteness length of an $S$-arithmetic subgroup $\Gamma$ in a noncommutative isotropic absolutely almost simple group $G$ over a global function field is one less than the sum of the local ranks of $G$ taken over the places…
