Let $V$ be a vector space of dimension $d$ over $F_q$, a finite field of $q$ elements, and let $G \le GL(V) \cong GL_d(q)$ be a linear group. A base of $G$ is a set of vectors whose pointwise stabiliser in $G$ is trivial. We prove that if…

We show that, in a weakly regular $p$-adic Lie group $G$, the subgroup $G_u$ spanned by the one-parameter subgroups of $G$ admits a Levi decomposition. As a consequence, there exists a regular open subgroup of $G$ which contains $G_u$.

A linear algebraic group G over a field k is called a Cayley group if it admits a Cayley map, i.e. a G-equivariant birational isomorphism over k between the group variety G and its Lie algebra Lie(G). A prototypical example is the classical…
