Let $\G$ be a semisimple algebraic group over a number field $K$, $\mathcal{S}$ a finite set of places of $K$, $K_\mathcal{S}$ the direct product of the completions $K_v, v \in \mathcal{S}$, and $\OO$ the ring of $\mathcal{S}$-integers of…

An algebraic group is called semi-reductive if it is a semi-direct product of a reductive subgroup and the unipotent radical. Such a semi-reductive algebraic group naturally arises and also plays a key role in the study of modular…

Let $G$ be a permutation group on a set $\Omega$, and $k$ a positive integer. The $k$-closure $G^{(k)}$ of $G$ is the largest subgroup of $\operatorname{Sym}(\Omega)$, with the same as $G$ orbits of componentwise action on $\Omega^k$. We…

In this article, we will prove that the formal degree conjecture is compatible with the Deligne-Kazhdan correspondence for quasi-split groups, assuming that the local Langlands correspondence is compatible with the Deligne-Kazhdan…

Assume $G$ is a connected reductive algebraic group defined over $\bar{\mathbb{F}_p}$ such that $p$ is good prime for $G$. Furthermore we assume that $Z(G)$ is connected and $G/Z(G)$ is simple of classical type. Let $F$ be a Frobenius…

We complete the classification of positive rank gradings on Lie algebras of simple algebraic groups over an algebraically closed field k whose characteristic is zero or not too small, and we determine the little Weyl groups in each case. We…

Let G be a simple, simply-connected algebraic group over the complex numbers with Lie algebra $\mathfrak g$. The main result of this article is a proof that each irreducible representation of the fundamental group of the orbit O through a…

For a positive integer $g$, let $\mathrm{Sp}_{2g}(R)$ denote the group of $2g \times 2g$ symplectic matrices over a ring $R$. Assume $g \ge 2$. For a prime number $\ell$, we give a self-contained proof that any closed subgroup of…

Let k be a field, let G be an affine algebraic k-group and V a finite-dimensional G-module. We say V is rigid if the socle series and radical series coincide for the action of G on each indecomposable summand of V; say V is geometrically…

We prove a conjecture of Kollar and Larsen on Zariski closed subgroups of $GL(V)$ which act irreducibly on some symmetric power $Sym^{k}(V)$ with $k \geq 4$. This conjecture has interesting implications, in particular on the holonomy group…

We classify all pairs (G,V) with G a closed subgroup in a classical group with natural module V over the complex numbers such that G has the same composition factors on the kth tensor power of V, for a fixed (small) k. In particular, we…
