We prove the following generalization of the classical Shephard-Todd-Chevalley Theorem. Let $G$ be a finite group of graded algebra automorphisms of a skew polynomial ring $A:=k_{p_{ij}}[x_1,...,x_n]$. Then the fixed subring $A^G$ has…

Let ${\bf G}$ be a connected reductive group defined over $\mathbb{F}_q$, the finite field with $q$ elements. Let ${\bf B}$ be an Borel subgroup defined over $\mathbb{F}_q$. In this paper, we completely determine the composition factors of…

Given a finite group $G$ and an abelian variety $A$ acted on by $G$, to any subgroup $H$ of $G$, we associate an abelian subvariety $A_H$ on which the associated Hecke algebra $\mathcal{H}_H$ for $H$ in $G$ acts. Any irreducible rational…

Let $\mathcal{O}$ be the ring of integers of a number field, and let $n\geq 3$. This paper studies bi-interpretability of the ring of integers $\mathbb{Z}$ with the special linear group $\text{SL}_n(\mathcal{O})$, the general linear group…

Let $G$ be a locally compact group, $L(G)$ be its group von Neumann algebra equipped with the Plancherel weight $\varphi_G$. In this paper, we consider the following two questions. (1) When is the restriction of $\varphi_G$ to the…

For $G$ a finite group, one way to construct irreducible quandle representations over $\mathbb{C}$ of the conjugacy quandle $Conj(G)$ is by taking the product of an irreducible linear group representation of $G$ by what we call a quandle…

We study infinite groups interpretable in three families of valued fields: $V$-minimal, power bounded $T$-convex, and $p$-adically closed fields. We show that every such group $G$ has unbounded exponent and that if $G$ is dp-minimal then it…

We provide structural criteria for some finite factorised groups $G = AB$ when the conjugacy class sizes in $G$ of certain $\pi$-elements in $A\cup B$ are either $\pi$-numbers or $\pi'$-numbers, for a set of primes $\pi$. In particular, we…

We prove that finite index subgroups in S-arithmetic Chevalley groups are bounded.

Let $k$ be a field and $G \subseteq Gl_n(k)$ be a finite group with $|G|^{-1} \in k$. Let $G$ act linearly on $A = k[X_1, \ldots, X_n]$ and let $A^G$ be the ring of invariant's. Suppose there does not exist any non-trivial one-dimensional…

The idea that the cohomology of finite groups might be fruitfully approached via the cohomology of ambient semisimple algebraic groups was first shown to be viable in the papers [CPS75] and [CPSvdK77]. The second paper introduced, through a…

Let $X=GD$ be a group, where $G$ is a nonabelian simple group and $D$ is a dihedral group. These groups $X$ are closely related to regular Cayley maps. The main theorems of this paper describes $X$.

To the best of our knowledge, there is no explicit, constructive description of the generating set for the unit group $A(G)^\times$ of the Burnside ring associated with a finite group $G$. We resolve this long-standing open question,…

Let $G$ be an abelian group of order $n$ and let $R$ be a commutative ring which admits a homomorphism ${\Bbb Z}[\zeta_{n}]\ra R$, where $\zeta_{n}$ is a (complex) primitive $n$-th root of unity. Given a finite $R[G\e]$-module $M$, we…

In this paper, we continue our study of abstract representations of elementary subgroups of Chevalley groups of rank $\geq 2.$ First, we extend our earlier methods to analyze representations of elementary groups over arbitrary associative…

Let G be a connected reductive group over an algebraically closed field. We define a decomposition of G into finitely many strata such that each stratum is a union of conjugacy classes of fixed dimension; the strata are indexed by a set…

Let $G$ be a finite group. For a $G$-ring $A,$ let ${\rm Pic}^{\it G}({\it A})$ denote the equivariant Picard group of $A.$ We show that if $A$ is a finite type algebra over a field $k$ then ${\rm Pic}^{\it G}({\it A})$ is contracted in the…
