Let $G=G(K)$ be a simple algebraic group defined over an algebraically closed field $K$ of characteristic $p>0$. A subgroup $X$ of $G$ is said to be $G$-completely reducible if, whenever it is contained in a parabolic subgroup of $G$, it is…
Let G be a subgroup of GL(V), where V is a finite dimensional vector space over a finite field of characteristic p >0. If det(g-1) = 0 for all g \in G then we call G a fixed-point subgroup of GL(V). Motivated in parallel by questions in…
We classify up to isomorphism the gradings by arbitrary groups on the exceptional classical simple Lie superalgebras $G(3)$, $F(4)$ and $D(2,1;\alpha)$ over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $0$. To achieve this, we apply the…
We characterize finite-dimensional thick representations over ${\Bbb C}$ of connected complex semi-simple Lie groups by irreducible representations which are weight multiplicity-free and whose weight posets are totally ordered sets.…
Two extremal classes of acyclic groups are discussed. For an arbitrary group G, there is always a homomorphism from an acyclic group of cohomological dimension 2 onto the maximum perfect subgroup of G, and there is always an embedding of G…
Let $\lambda(G)$ be the maximum number of subgroups in an irredundant covering of a finite group $G$. We prove that the finite groups with $\lambda(G)=|G|-t$, where $t\leq 5$, are solvable, and classify such groups.
We characterize the structure of a seven-dimensional Lie algebra with non-trivial center endowed with a closed G$_2$-structure. Using this result, we classify all unimodular Lie algebras with non-trivial center admitting closed…
We augment the body of existing results on embedding finite semigroups of a certain type into 2-generator finite semigroups of the same type. The approach adopted applies to finite semigroups the idempotents of which form a band and also to…
Let G be a reductive algebraic group over a field of prime characteristic. One can associate to G (or subgroups thereof) its Lie algebra, its Frobenius kernels, and the finite Chevalley group of points over a finite field. The…
We continue the investigation, that began in [3] and [4], into finite groups whose set of nontrivial conjugacy class sizes form an arithmetic progression. Let $G$ be a finite group and denote the set of conjugacy class sizes of $G$ by ${\rm…
We give a definition of differentiable cohomology of a Lie group G (possibly infinite-dimensional) with coefficients in any abelian Lie group. This differentiable cohomology maps both to the cohomology of the group made discrete and to Lie…
Let M_n be the class of all multiloop algebras of finite dimensional simple Lie algebras relative to n-tuples of commuting finite order automorphisms. It is a classical result that M_1 is the class of all derived algebras modulo their…
For each subgroup of GL_2(F_p) or order divisible by p, generated by (pseudo-)reflections, we compute the ideals of stable and generalized invariants. These groups and these ideals are related to the cohomology of compact Lie groups,…
We introduce algebroid desingularizable Poisson manifolds, a class of Poisson manifolds induced by symplectic Lie algebroids with almost-injective anchors, generalizing structures including log-symplectic, $b^m$-symplectic, $E$-symplectic…
A local classification of all Poisson-Lie structures on an infinite-dimensional group $G_{\infty}$ of formal power series is given. All Lie bialgebra structures on the Lie algebra ${\Cal G}_{\infty}$ of $G_{\infty}$ are also classified.
We describe arbitrary multiplicative differential forms on Lie groupoids infinitesimally, i.e., in terms of Lie algebroid data. This description is based on the study of linear differential forms on Lie algebroids and encompasses many known…
We study higher-degree generalizations of symplectic groupoids, referred to as {\em multisymplectic groupoids}. Recalling that Poisson structures may be viewed as infinitesimal counterparts of symplectic groupoids, we describe "higher''…
We construct the finite-dimensional continuous complex representations of $\mathrm{SL}_2$ over compact discrete valuation rings of even residual characteristic. We also prove that the complex group algebras of $\mathrm{SL}_2$ over finite…
For a stratified group $G$, we construct a class of polarised Lie groups, which we call modifications of $G$, that are locally contactomorphic to it. Vice versa, we show that if a polarised group is locally contactomorphic to a stratified…
Consider a simple complex Lie group $G$ acting diagonally on a triple flag variety $G/P_1\times G/P_2\times G/P_3$, where $P_i$ is parabolic subgroup of $G$. We provide an algorithm for systematically checking when this action has finitely…
