We study solvability, nilpotency and splitting property for algebraic supergroups over an arbitrary field $K$ of characteristic $\mathrm{char}\, K \ne 2$. Our first main theorem tells us that an algebraic supergroup $\mathbb{G}$ is solvable…

We prove that a finitely generated Lie algebra $L$ such that (i) every commutator in generators is ad-nilpotent, and (ii) $ L$ satisfies a polynomial identity, is nilpotent. As a corollary we get that a finitely generated residually-$p$…

We study finite-dimensional nonassociative algebras. We prove the implicit function theorem for such algebras. This allows us to establish a correspondence between such algebras and quasigroups, in the spirit of classical correspondence…

Suppose that $\mathbf{G}$ is a connected reductive group over a finite extension $F/\mathbb{Q}_p$, and that $C$ is a field of characteristic $p$. We prove that the group $\mathbf{G}(F)$ admits an irreducible admissible supercuspidal, or…

Let $\mathcal{N}_{\mathfrak{g}^*}$ be the variety of nilpotent elements in the dual of the Lie algebra of a reductive algebraic group over an algebraically closed field. In \cite{Lu2} Lusztig proposes a definition of a partition of…

Let $F$ be a non-Archimedean locally compact field, let $G$ be a split connected reductive group over $F$. For a parabolic subgroup $Q\subset G$ and a ring $L$ we consider the $G$-representation on the $L$-module$$(*)\quad\quad\quad\quad…

We show that every Fell bundle B over a locally compact group G is "proper" in a sense recently introduced by Ng. Combining our results with those of Ng we show that if B satisfies the "approximation property" then it is amenable in the…

Let K be any field, and let G be a semisimple group over K. Suppose the characteristic of K is positive and is very good for G. We describe all group scheme homomorphisms phi:SL(2) --> G whose image is geometrically G-completely reducible…

Let $G$ be a simple simply-connected algebraic group over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $p>0$ with $\mathfrak{g}={\rm Lie}(G)$. We discuss various properties of nilpotent orbits in $\mathfrak{g}$, which have previously…

We study groups $G$ where the $\varphi$-conjugacy class $[e]_{\varphi}=\{g^{-1}\varphi(g)~|~g\in G\}$ of the unit element is a subgroup of $G$ for every automorphism $\varphi$ of $G$. If $G$ has $n$ generators, then we prove that the $k$-th…

Let $G$ be a connected, simply connected one-parameter metabelian nilpotent Lie group, that means, the corresponding Lie algebra has a one-codimensional abelian subalgebra. In this article we show that $G$ contains a discrete cocompact…

Let $G$ be a connected, simply connected nilpotent Lie group, identified with a real algebraic subgroup of $\mathrm{UT}(n,\mathbb{R})$, and let $\Gamma$ be a lattice in $G$, with $\pi:G\to G/\Gamma$ the quotient map. For a semi-algebraic…

Let K be a field and A be a commutative associative K-algebra which is an integral domain. The Lie algebra Der A of all K-derivations of A is an A-module in a natural way and if R is the quotient field of A, then RDer A is a vector space…

For a quasi-split tamely connected reductive group G over a p-adic field, we prove that its (monodromic) affine Hecke category is canonically equivalent to its equal characteristic counterpart as monoidal categories.

Let $G$ be a connected reductive group over a non-archimedean local field $F$ of residue characteristic $p$, $P$ be a parabolic subgroup of $G$, and $R$ be a commutative ring. When $R$ is artinian, $p$ is nilpotent in $R$, and…

Let $G$ be a connected reductive group over a $p$-adic local field $F$. We propose and study the notions of $G$-$\varphi$-modules and $G$-$(\varphi,\nabla)$-modules over the Robba ring, which are exact faithful $F$-linear tensor functors…

We prove that for p-optimal fields (a very large subclass of p-minimal fields containing all the known examples) a cell decomposition theorem follows from methods going back to Denef's paper [Invent. Math, 77 (1984)]. We derive from it the…
