For a finite group $G$, let $\sigma(G)$ be the number of subgroups of $G$ and $\sigma_\iota(G)$ the number of isomorphism types of subgroups of $G$. Let $L=L_r(p^e)$ denote a simple group of Lie type, rank $r$, over a field of order $p^e$…
We prove that an element from the Chevalley group of type $E_6$ or $E_7$ over a polynomial ring with coefficients in a small-dimensional ring can be reduced to an element of certain proper subsystem subgroup by a bounded number of…
The paper studies the lattice of subgroups of an isotropic reductive group G(R) over a commutative ring R, normalized by the elementary subgroup E(R). We prove the sandwich classification theorem for this lattice under the assumptions that…
Let $G$ be a finite group and $H$ be a subgroup of $G$. Then $H$ is called a weakly $S\Phi$-supplemented subgroup of $G$, if there exists a subgroup $T$ of $G$ such that $G =HT$ and $H \cap T \leq \Phi (H) H_{sG}$, where $H_{sG}$ denotes…
In this paper we prove that every automorphism of a Chevalley group (or its elementary subgroup) with root system of rank >1 over a commutative ring (with 1/2 for the systems A_2, F_4, B_l, C_l; with 1/2 and 1/3 for the system G_2) is…
We prove that every locally inner endomorphism of a Chevalley group (or its elementary subgroup) over a local ring with an irreducible root system of rank >1 (with 1/2 for the systems A_2, F_4, B_l, C_l and with 1/3 for the system G_2) is…
Given a partial action $\alpha$ of a groupoid $G$ on a ring $R$, we study the associated partial skew groupoid ring $R \rtimes_{\alpha} G$, which carries a natural $G$-grading. We show that there is a one-to-one correspondence between the…
Let G be a semisimple complex algebraic group, and H a wonderful subgroup of G. We prove several results relating the subgroup H to the properties of a combinatorial invariant S of G/H, called its spherical system. It is also possible to…
In this paper we establish a definitive result which almost completely closes the problem of bounded elementary generation for Chevalley groups of rank $\ge 2$ over arbitrary Dedekind rings $R$ of arithmetic type, with uniform bounds.…
The current article continues a series of papers on decomposition of unipotents and its applications. Let $G(\Phi,R)$ be a Chevalley group with a reduced irreducible root system $\Phi$ over a commutative ring $R$. Fix $h\in G(\Phi,R)$. Call…
Let $\Gamma$ be a discrete subgroup of a simply connected, solvable Lie group~$G$, such that $\Ad_G\Gamma$ has the same Zariski closure as $\Ad G$. If $\alpha \colon \Gamma \to \GL_n(\real)$ is any finite-dimensional representation…
We develop a new approach to highest weight categories $\cal{C}$ with good (and cogood) posets of weights via pseudocompact algebras by introducing ascending (and descending) quasi-hereditary pseudocompact algebras. For $\cal{C}$ admitting…
Given a complex simply connected simple algebraic group $G$ of exceptional type and a maximal parabolic subgroup $P \subset G$, we classify all triples $(G,P,H)$ such that $H \subset G$ is a maximal reductive subgroup acting spherically on…
By a theorem of Chevalley the image of a morphism of varieties is a constructible set. The algebraic version of this fact is usually stated as a result on "extension of specializations" or "lifting of prime ideals". We present a difference…
We study reductive subgroups $H$ of a reductive linear algebraic group $G$ -- possibly non-connected -- such that $H$ contains a regular unipotent element of $G$. We show that under suitable hypotheses, such subgroups are $G$-irreducible in…
Let $G$ be a connected and simply connected semisimple algebraic group over $\Bbb Q$ and let $\Gamma\subset G(\Bbb Q)$ be an arithmetic subgroup. Let $K_\infty\subset G(\Bbb R)$ be a maximal compact subgroup and let $d$ be the dimension of…
Let $\hat G$ be the finite simply connected version of an exceptional Chevalley group, and let $V$ be a nontrivial irreducible module, of minimal dimension, for $\hat G$ over its field of definition. We explore the overgroup structure of…
The paper was motivated by a question of Vilonen, and the main results have been used by Mirkovic and Vilonen to give a geometric interpretation of the dual group (as a Chevalley group over Z) of a reductive group. We define a…
Let $\Phi$ be a reduced irreducible root system of rank $\ge 2$, let $R$ be a commutative ring and let $I,J$ be two ideals of $R$. In the present paper we describe generators of the commutator groups of relative elementary subgroups…
In this paper some results on the Lie structure of prime superalgebras are discussed. We prove that, with the exception of some special cases, for a prime superalgebra, $A$, over a ring of scalars $\Phi$ with $1/2\in \Phi$, if $L$ is a Lie…
