We provide a new condition for an absolutely almost simple algebraic group to have good reduction with respect to a discrete valuation of the base field which is formulated in terms of the existence of maximal tori with special properties.…
We prove an induction theorem for the higher algebraic K-groups of group algebras $kG$ of finite groups $G$ over characteristic $p$ finite fields $k$. For a certain class of finite groups, which we call $p$-isolated, this reduces…
G. Navarro has conjectured a necessary and sufficient condition for a finite group $G$ to have a self-normalizing Sylow 2-subgroup, which is given in terms of the ordinary irreducible characters of $G$. In a previous article, the author has…
The Boone--Higman conjecture is that every recursively presented group with solvable word problem embeds in a finitely presented simple group. We discuss a brief history of this conjecture and work towards it. Along the way we describe some…
In this article we give sufficient conditions for a group to have simple derived subgroup; the argument is based on generalising properties observed for extremely proximal micro-supported actions on the Cantor space, and generalises…
We prove the semisimplicity conjecture for A-motives over finitely generated fields K. This conjecture states that the rational Tate modules V_p(M) of a semisimple A-motive M are semisimple as representations of the absolute Galois group of…
We study representations of the classical infinite dimensional real simple Lie groups $G$ induced from factor representations of minimal parabolic subgroups $P$. This makes strong use of the recently developed structure theory for those…
We introduce a new class of transitive permutation groups which properly contains the automorphism groups of vertex-transitive graphs and digraphs. We then give a sufficient condition for a quotient of this family to remain in the family,…
We propose a procedure for automated implicit inductive theorem proving for equational specifications made of rewrite rules with conditions and constraints. The constraints are interpreted over constructor terms (representing data values),…
As a step to establish the blockwise Alperin weight conjecture for all finite groups, we verify the inductive blockwise Alperin weight condition introduced by Navarro--Tiep and Sp\"ath for simple groups of Lie type $\mathsf A$, split or…
We gather evidence on a new local-global conjecture of Moret\'o and Rizo on values of irreducible characters of finite groups. For this we study subnormalisers and picky elements in finite groups of Lie type and determine them in many…
We construct analogues of FI-modules where the role of the symmetric group is played by the general linear groups and the symplectic groups over finite rings and prove basic structural properties such as Noetherianity. Applications include…
The main aim of this paper is the description of a large class of lattices in some nilpotent Lie groups, sometimes filiformes, carrying a flat left invariant linear connection anf often a left invariant symplectic form. As a consequence we…
The classification of irreducible, spherical characters of the infinite-dimensional unitary/orthogonal/symplectic groups can be obtained by finding all possible limits of normalized, irreducible characters of the corresponding…
We define basic notions in the category of conic representations of a topological group and prove elementary facts about them. We show that a conic representation determines an ordinary dynamical system of the group together with a…
Suppose that a finite group $G$ admits an automorphism $\varphi $ of order $2^n$ such that the fixed-point subgroup $C_G(\varphi ^{2^{n-1}})$ of the involution $\varphi ^{2^{n-1}}$ is nilpotent of class $c$. Let $m=|C_G(\varphi)|$ be the…
Let $G$ be a real reductive Lie group, $L$ a compact subgroup, and $\pi$ an irreducible admissible representation of $G$. In this article we prove a necessary and sufficient condition for the finiteness of the multiplicities of $L$-types…
We prove that if $G$ is a finite simple group and $x, y \in G$ are involutions, then $|x^G \cap C_G(y)| \rightarrow \infty$ as $|G| \rightarrow \infty$. This extends results of Guralnick-Robinson and Skresanov. We also prove a related…
The purpose of this paper is to explore the concept of localization, which comes from homotopy theory, in the context of finite simple groups. We give an easy criterion for a finite simple group to be a localization of some simple subgroup…
We verify the inductive blockwise Alperin weight (BAW) and the inductive Alperin-McKay (AM) conditions introduced by the second author for blocks of finite quasisimple groups with cyclic defect groups. Furthermore we establish a criterion…
