We give necessary and sufficient conditions for an orthogonal group defined over a field of characteristic not 2 to contain a maximal torus of a given type.

Let $k$ be a field of characteristic different from $2$ and $3$. In this paper we study connected simple algebraic groups of type $A_2$, $G_2$ and $F_4$ defined over $k$, via their rank-$2$ $k$-tori. Simple, simply connected groups of type…

We give a concrete characterization of the rational conjugacy classes of maximal tori in groups of type $D_n$, with specific emphasis on the case of number fields and p-adic fields. This includes the forms associated to quadratic spaces,…

Let k be a finite field, a global field or a local non-archimedean field. Let H_1 and H_2 be two split, connected, semisimple algebraic groups defined over k. We prove that if H_1 and H_2 share the same set of maximal k-tori up to…

Embeddings of maximal tori into classical groups over global fields of characteristic not 2 are the subject matter of several recent papers, with special attention to the Hasse principle. The present paper gives necessary and sufficient…

Let $F$ be a local field and $E/F$ be a separable extension of degree $n$. Regard $T=\text{Res}_{E/F} \mathbb{G}_m$ as an elliptic maximal torus of $G=\mathrm{GL}_n$. We can construct an admissible embedding of L-groups…

We provide a characterization of homogeneous spaces under a reductive group scheme such that the geometric stabilizers are maximal tori. The quasi-split case over a semilocal base is of special interest and permits to answer a question…

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…

To follow up on the results of [1], we propose a computationally efficient explicit cyclic decomposition of the maximal tori in the groups $SL_n(q)$ and $SU_n(q)$ and their projective images. We also derive some corollaries to simplify…

The aim of this note is to revisit the question of local-global principles for embeddings of etale algebras with involution into central simple algebras with involution over global fields of characteristic not 2. A necessary and sufficient…

In this paper we study local-global principles for tori over semi-global fields, which are one variable function fields over complete discretely valued fields. In particular, we show that for principal homogeneous spaces for tori over the…

We give a concrete characterization of the rational conjugacy classes of maximal tori in groups of type G2, focusing on the case of number fields and p-adic fields. In the same context we characterize the rational conjugacy classes of A2…

Let G be a connected reductive group over the complex numbers with a fixed pinning. We define and study the totally positive part of the set of maximal tori of G.

We compare different local-global principles for torsors under a reductive group G defined over a semiglobal field F. In particular if the F-group G s a retract rational F-variety, we prove that the local global principle holds for the…

We count the conjugacy classes of maximal tori in the groups of symplectomorphisms of S^2 \times S^2 and of the blow-up of CP^2 at a point.

We prove the existence and uniqueness of a new maximal subgroup of the algebraic group of type $E_8$ in characteristic $3$. This has type $F_4$, and was missing from previous lists of maximal subgroups produced by Seitz and Liebeck--Seitz.…

We give explicit and elementary constructions of the categorical extensions of a torus by the circle and discuss an application to loop group extensions. Examples include maximal tori of simple and simply connected compact Lie groups and…
