Suppose that $G$ is a simple adjoint reductive group over $\mathbf{Q}$, with an exceptional Dynkin type, and with $G(\mathbf{R})$ quaternionic (in the sense of Gross-Wallach). Then there is a notion of modular forms for $G$, anchored on the…

Let $G$ be a group. A function $G\rightarrow G$ of the form $x\mapsto x^{\alpha}g$ for a fixed automorphism $\alpha$ of $G$ and a fixed $g\in G$ is called an affine map of $G$. In this paper, we study finite groups $G$ with an affine map of…

We study automorphisms $\alpha$ of a totally disconnected, locally compact group $G$ which are expansive in the sense that, for some identity neighbourhood $U$, the sets $\alpha^n(U)$ (for integers $n$) intersect in the trivial group.…

We prove that for no nontrivial ordered abelian group G, the ordered power series field R((G)) admits an exponential, i.e. an isomorphism between its ordered additive group and its ordered multiplicative group of positive elements, but that…

In this paper, we study the moduli space of unipotent Weil-Deligne representations valued in a split reductive group $G$ and characterise which irreducible components are smooth. We apply the smoothness results proved to show that a certain…

Let $G$ be a simple algebraic group of exceptional type over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p \geqslant 0$ which is not algebraic over a finite field. Let $\mathcal{C}_1, \ldots, \mathcal{C}_t$ be non-central conjugacy…

Let $G$ be a group. The central automorphism group $Aut_c(G)$ of $G$ is the centralizer of $Inn(G)$ the subgroup of $Aut(G)$ of inner automorphisms. There is a one to one map $ \sigma \mapsto h_\sigma$ from the set $Aut_c(G)$ onto the set…

Let G be a reductive group over a commutative ring R. We say that G has isotropic rank >=n, if every normal semisimple reductive R-subgroup of G contains (G_m)^n. We prove that if G has isotropic rank >=1 and R is a regular domain…

The classical decomposition theory for states on a C*-algebra that are invariant under a group action has been studied by using the theory of orthogonal measures on the state space \cite{BR1}. In \cite{BK3}, we introduced the notion of…

In ``Rips complexes and covers in the uniform category'' the authors define, following James, covering maps of uniform spaces and introduce the concept of generalized uniform covering maps. Conditions for the existence of universal uniform…

An isomorphism between the group ring of a finite group and a ring of certain block diagonal matrices is established. The group ring $RG$ of a finite group $G$ is isomorphic to the set of {\em group ring matrices} over $R$. It is shown that…

We show that for algebraic groups over local fields of characteristic zero, the following are equivalent: Every homomorphism has a closed image, every unitary representation decomposes into a direct sum of finite-dimensional and mixing…

Let $G$ be a simple linear algebraic group over an algebraically closed field $K$ of characteristic two. Any non-trivial self-dual irreducible $K[G]$-module $W$ admits a non-degenerate $G$-invariant alternating bilinear form, thus giving a…

We continue the study of separable elements in finite Weyl groups. These elements generalize the well-studied class of separable permutations. We show that the multiplication map $W/U \times U \to W$ is a length-additive bijection, or…

We introduce a directed graph related to a group $G$, which we call the N-prime graph $\Gamma_{\rm{N}}(G)$ of $G$ and which is a refinement of the classical Gruenberg-Kegel graph. The vertices of $\Gamma_{\rm{N}}(G)$ are the primes $p$ such…

Let $G$ be a $(2,m,n)$-group and let $x$ be the number of distinct primes dividing $\chi$, the Euler characteristic of $G$. We prove, first, that, apart from a finite number of known exceptions, a non-abelian simple composition factor $T$…

This paper is a generalization of a previous paper by the author to connected unipotent linear algebraic groups. The notion of an $ \alpha $-pair answers when an open $ G $-stable, affine, sub-variety $ D(H) $ is a trivial bundle over $ G…

Let $G$ be a simple algebraic group defined over a finite field of good characteristic, with associated Frobenius endomorphism $F$. In this article we extend an observation of Lusztig, (which gives a numerical relationship between an…

The power graph $\mathscr{P}(G)$ of a group $G$ is an undirected graph with all the elements of $G$ as vertices and where any two vertices $u$ and $v$ are adjacent if and only if $u=v^m $ or $v=u^m$, $ m \in$ $\mathbb{Z}$. For a simple…

The non-solvable graph of a finite group G is a simple graph whose vertices are the elements of G and there is an edge between x and y if and only if the subgroup generated by x and y is not solvable. The isolated vertices in the…
