We give a combinatorial description of the Springer correspondence for classical Lie algebras $\mathfrak{g}$ of type $B,C$ or $D$ and their duals $\mathfrak{g}^*$ in characteristic 2. The combinatorics used here is of the same kind as those…

All gradings by abelian groups are classified on the following algebras over an algebraically closed field of characteristic not 2: the simple Lie algebra of type $G_2$ (characteristic not 3), the exceptional simple Jordan algebra, and the…

Let $G$ be a simply connected algebraic group of type $B,C$ or $D$ over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 2. We construct a Springer correspondence for the dual vector space of the Lie algebra of $G$. In particular, we…

As part of the development of the orbit method, Kirillov has counted the number of strictly upper triangular matrices with coefficients in a finite field of $q$ elements and fixed Jordan type. One obtains polynomials with respect to $q$…

We study the exceptional theta correspondence for real groups obtained by restricting the minimal representation of the split exceptional group of the type E_n, to a split dual pair where one member is the exceptional group of the type G_2.…

Let $G$ be a simple algebraic group over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p$, and assume that $p$ is a very good prime for $G$. Let $P$ be a parabolic subgroup whose unipotent radical $U_P$ has nilpotence class less than…

In the literature on finite groups of Lie type, there exist two different conventions about the labelling of the irreducible characters of Weyl groups of type~$F_4$. We point out some issues concerning these two conventions and their effect…

Some fine gradings on the exceptional Lie algebras $\mathfrak{e}_6$, $\mathfrak{e}_7$ and $\mathfrak{e}_8$ are described. This list tries to be exhaustive.

We investigate the graded Lie algebras of Cartan type $W$, $S$ and $H$ in characteristic 2 and determine their simple constituents and some exceptional isomorphisms between them. We also consider the graded Lie algebras of Cartan type $K$…

We prove some isomorphisms between exceptional W-algebras associated with exceptional simple Lie algebras.

Let $W$ be the Weyl group of type $BC_n$. We first provide restriction formulas of the total Springer representations for the symplectic Lie algebra in characteristic 2 and the exotic case to the maximal parabolic subgroup of $W$ which is…

Let $G = GL(V)$ for an N-dimensional vector space $V$ over an algebraically closed field k, and $G^{\theta}$ the fixed point subgroup of $G$ under an involution $\theta$ on $G$. In the case where $G^{\theta} = O(V)$, the generalized…

In this thesis we consider the maximal subalgebras of the exceptional Lie algebras in algebraically closed fields of positive characteristic. This begins with a quick recap of the article by Herpel and Stewart which considered the Cartan…

We illustrate some simple ideas that can be used for obtaining a classification of small-dimensional solvable Lie algebras.Using these we obtain the classification of 3 and 4 dimensional solvable Lie algebras (over fields of any…

We complete the determination of the generalised Springer correspondence for connected reductive algebraic groups, by proving a conjecture of Lusztig on the last open cases which occur for groups of type $E_8$.

It is well-known that every derivation of a semisimple Lie algebra $L$ over an algebraically closed field $F$ with characteristic zero is inner. The aim of this paper is to show what happens if the characteristic of $F$ is prime with $L$ an…
