For every finite quasisimple group of Lie type $G$, every irreducible character $\chi$ of $G$, and every element $g$ of $G$, we give an exponential upper bound for the character ratio $|\chi(g)|/\chi(1)$ with exponent linear in $\log_{|G|}…

A differential version of the classical Weil descent is established in all characteristics. It yields a theory of differential restriction of scalars for differential varieties over finite differential field extensions. This theory is then…

We prove an upper bound for the number of cyclic transitive subgroups in a finite permutation group and clarify the structure of the groups for which this bound becomes sharp. We also give an application in the theory of number fields.

We obtain a quantitative version of the classical Chevalley-Weil theorem for curves. Let $\phi : \tilde{C} \to C$ be an unramified morphism of non-singular plane projective curves defined over a number field $K$. We calculate an effective…

We generalize Chevalley's theorem about restriction of \mathfrak{g}-invariant polynomial functions \mathfrak{g}->C to W-invariant functions on the Cartan \mathfrak{h}->C. We consider the case when \mathfrak{g} is replaced by a quantum group…

We prove an explicit uniform Chevalley theorem for direct summands of graded polynomial rings in mixed characteristic. Our strategy relies on the introduction of a new type of differential powers, which do not require the existence of a…

An algebraic structure for one-dimensional quantum walks is introduced. This structure characterizes, in some sense, one-dimensional quantum walks. A natural computation using this algebraic structure leads us to obtain an effective formula…

We use Dunkl's operators to give an elementary proof of the surjectivity in the Chevalley's restriction theorem. In the second part of this article we describe the image of the invariants by the restriction map in the case of Takiff…

Let (g,[p]) be a finite-dimensional restricted Lie algebra, defined over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic p>0. The scheme of tori of maximal dimension of g gives rise to a finite group S(g) that coincides with the Weyl…

Building on reduction theorems and dimension bounds for symmetric groups obtained in our earlier work, we classify the irreducible restrictions of representations of the symmetric and alternating groups to proper subgroups. Such…

We present explicit upper bounds for the number and size of conjugacy classes in finite Chevalley groups and their variations. These results have been used by many authors to study zeta functions associated to representations of finite…

If $G$ is a finite classical group, linear or unitary in any characteristic, and orthogonal in odd characteristic, we give an approximate formula for $\chi(g)$ in which the error term is much smaller than the estimate, when $g\in G$ is an…

We prove Behrend's conjecture on the rationality of the canonical reduction of principal bundles and reductive group schemes for classical groups and give new bounds for the conjecture for exceptional groups. However we find a…

Let $p$ be a prime and $q$ be a power of $p$. We compute the Chow ring of the classifying space of some Chevalley groups $G(\mathbb{F}_q)$, when considered as a finite algebraic group over a field of characteristic $p$ containing…

Let $q$ be a power of a prime $p$ and let $U(q)$ be a Sylow $p$-subgroup of a finite Chevalley group $G(q)$ defined over the field with $q$ elements. We first give a parametrization of the set $\text{Irr}(U(q))$ of irreducible characters of…

The classical Chevalley-Weil theorem asserts that for an \'etale covering of projective varieties over a number field K, the discriminant of the field of definition of the fiber over a K-rational point is uniformly bounded. We obtain a…

Let $g$ be a complex semisimple Lie algebra with adjoint group $G$. Suppose that $\sigma$ is an involutive automorphism of $g$. Then $\sigma$ induces uniquely an involution of $G$ also denoted by $\sigma$, let $K=G^\sigma$ be a subgroup of…
