Let N be the normalizer of a maximal torus T in a split reductive group over F_q, and let w be an involution in the Weyl group N/T. We construct a section of W satisfying the braid relations, such that the image of the lift n of w under the…

Let $G$ be a finite group of Lie type $E_6$ over $F_q$ (adjoint or simply connected) and $W$ be the Weyl group of $G$. We describe maximal tori $T$ such that $T$ has a complement in its algebraic normalizer $N(G,T)$. It is well known that…

Let $G$ be a finite group of Lie type $E_l$ with $l\in\{6,7,8\}$ over $F_q$ and $W$ be the Weyl group of $G$. We describe all maximal tori $T$ of $G$ such that $T$ has a complement in its algebraic normalizer $N(G,T)$. Let $T$ correspond to…

The normalizer $N_G(H_G)$ of a maximal torus $H_G$ in a semisimple complex Lie group $G$ does not in general allow a presentation as a semidirect product of $H_G$ and the corresponding Weyl group $W_G$. Meanwhile, splitting holds for…

Suppose $G$ is a reductive algebraic group, $T$ is a Cartan subgroup, $N=\text{Norm}(T)$, and $W=N/T$ is the Weyl group. If $w\in W$ has order $d$, it is natural to ask about the orders lifts of $w$ to $N$. It is straightforward to see that…

Let $G$ be a finite group of Lie type $F_4$ with the Weyl group $W$. For every maximal torus $T$ of $G$, we find the minimal order of a supplement to $T$ in its algebraic normalizer $N(G,T)$. In particular, we obtain all maximal tori having…

Given a complex connected reductive Lie group $G$ with a maximal torus $H\subset G$, Tits defined an extension $W_G^T$ of the corresponding Weyl group $W_G$. The extended group is supplied with an embedding into the normalizer $N_G(H)$,…

We determine the groups which can appear as the normalizer of a maximal torus in a connected 2-compact group. The technique depends on using ideas of Tits to give a novel description of the normalizer of the torus in a connected compact Lie…

We construct reflection and translation operators on the Hilbert space corresponding to the torus by projecting them from the plane. These operators are shown to have the same group properties as their analogue on the plane. The…

Let $G$ be a finite group of Lie type and $T$ a maximal torus of $G$. In this paper we complete the study of the question of the existence of a complement for the torus $T$ in its algebraic normalizer $N(G,T)$. It is proved that every…

Let $X$ be a smooth scheme over a perfect field $k$ of positive characteristic. M.V.~Nori and V.~Srinivas studied infinitesimal liftings of Frobenius morphism $F:X\to X$. Namely, given a Frobenius lifting $F_Y: Y\to Y$ over $W_{n-1}(k)$ the…

Let T be a maximal torus of a connected reductive group G that acts linearly on a projective variety X so that all semi-stable points are stable. This paper compares the integration on the geometric invariant theory quotient X//G of Chow…

We prove that the set of elements of a given finite order in the connected component $N_w$ of the normalizer $N_G(T)$ of a maximal torus $T$ of a semisimple group $G$ is either empty or a disjoint union of finitely many irreducible…

We show that for a reductive group $G$ over a field $k$ the $\mathbb{A}^1$-Euler characteristic of the variety of maximal tori in $G$ is an invertible element of the Grothendieck-Witt ring $\mathrm{GW}(k)$, settling the weak form of a…

In this paper we find all symplectic groups and their maximal tori in which normalizer of a torus is split over the torus.

We construct a local deformation problem for residual Galois representations $\bar{\rho}$ valued in an arbitrary reductive group $\hat{G}$ which we use to develop a variant of the Taylor-Wiles method. Our generalization allows Taylor-Wiles…

Let $G$ be a finite simple group of Lie type and let $T$ be a maximal torus of $G$. It is well known that if the defining field of $G$ is large enough, then the normaliser of $T$ in $G$ is equal to the algebraic normaliser $N(G,T)$. We…

Given a simple connected compact Lie group $K$ and a maximal torus $T$ of $K$, the Weyl group $W=N_K(T)/T$ naturally acts on $T$. First, we use the combinatorics of the (extended) affine Weyl group to provide an explicit $W$-equivariant…
