We construct, for any finite commutative ring $R$, a family of representations of the general linear group $\mathrm{GL}_n(R)$ whose intertwining properties mirror those of the principal series for $\mathrm{GL}_n$ over a finite field.

We first compare several algebraic notions of normality, from a categorical viewpoint. Then we introduce an intrinsic description of Higgins' commutator for ideal-determined categories, and we define a new notion of normality in terms of…

Let $(\FormR)$ be a form ring such that $A$ is quasi-finite $R$-algebra (i.e., a direct limit of module finite algebras) with identity. We consider the hyperbolic Bak's unitary groups $\GU(2n,\FormR)$, $n\ge 3$. For a form ideal…

Let $(Q, q)$ be a quadratic space over a commutative ring $R$ in which $2$ is invertible, and consider the Dickson--Siegel--Eichler--Roy's subgroup $EO_{R}(Q, H(R)^{m})$ of the orthogonal group $O_R(Q \perp H(R)^m)$, with rank $Q= n \geq 1$…

In the current article we study structure of a Chevalley group $G(R)$ over a commutative ring $R$. We generalize and improve the following results: (1) standard, relative, and multi-relative commutator formulas; (2) nilpotent structure of…

In this paper, we study the action of special $n\times n $ linear (resp. symplectic) matrices which are homotopic to identity on the right invertible $n\times m$ matrices. We also prove that the commutator subgroup of $\rm{O}_{2n}(R[X])$ is…

Let $G$ be a simply connected Chevalley--Demazure group scheme without $SL_2$-factors. For any unital commutative ring $R$, we denote by $E(R)$ the standard elementary subgroup of $G(R)$, that is, the subgroup generated by the elementary…

In this paper, we prove two structure theorems for twisted Chevalley groups $G_\sigma (R)$ over a commutative ring $R$ with unity. The first theorem concerns the normality of $E'_\sigma (R,J)$, the elementary congruence subgroups at level…

For the second fundamental representation of the general linear group over a commutative ring $R$ we construct straightforward and uniform polynomial expressions of elementary generators as products of elementary conjugates of an arbitrary…

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…

We prove that the local Rankin--Selberg integrals for principal series representations of the general linear groups agree with certain simple integrals over the Rankin--Selberg subgroups, up to certain constants given by the local gamma…

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 an isotropic reductive algebraic group over a commutative ring R. Assume that the elementary subgroup E(R) of group of points G(R) is correctly defined. Then E(R) is perfect, except for the well-known cases of a split reductive…

In his seminal paper, half a century ago, Hyman Bass established a commutator formula in the setting of (stable) general linear group which was the key step in defining the K_1 group. Namely, he proved that for an associative ring A with…

Let $G$ be the universal Chevalley-Demazure group scheme corresponding to a reduced irreducible root system of rank $\geq 2$, and let $R$ be a commutative ring. We analyze the linear representations $\rho \colon G(R)^+ \to GL_n (K)$ over an…

Let $n$ be an integer greater than or equal to $3$ and $(R,\Delta)$ a Hermitian form ring where $R$ is commutative. We prove that if $H$ is a subgroup of the odd-dimensional unitary group $U_{2n+1}(R,\Delta)$ normalised by a relative…

The classical result, due to Jordan, Burnside, Dickson, says that every normal subgroup of $GL(n, K)$ ($K$ - a field, $n \geq 3$) which is not contained in the center, contains $SL(n, K)$. A. Rosenberg gave description of normal subgroups…

A gyrogroup is a nonassociative group-like structure modelled on the space of relativistically admissible velocities with a binary operation given by Einstein's velocity addition law. In this article, we present a few of groups sitting…

The third homology group of GL_n(R) is studied, where R is a `ring with many units' with center Z(R). The main theorem states that if K_1(Z(R))_Q \simeq K_1(R)_Q, (e.g. R a commutative ring or a central simple algebra), then H_3(GL_2(R), Q)…

Let $n$ be a natural number greater or equal to $3$, $R$ a commutative ring and $\sigma\in GL_n(R)$. We show that $t_{kl}(\sigma_{ij})$ (resp. $t_{kl}(\sigma_{ii}-\sigma_{jj}))$ where $i\neq j$ and $k\neq l$ can be expressed as a product of…
