A closed subgroup of a semisimple algebraic group is called irreducible if it lies in no proper parabolic subgroup. In this paper we classify all irreducible subgroups of exceptional algebraic groups $G$ which are connected, closed and…

The rank rk(G) of a profinite group G is the supremum of d(H), where H ranges over all closed subgroups of G and d(H) denotes the minimal cardinality of a topological generating set for H. A compact topological group G admits the structure…

For a finite group $A$ with normal subgroup $G$, a subgroup $U$ of $G$ is an $A$-prime-power-covering subgroup if $U$ meets every $A$-conjugacy-class of elements of $G$ of prime power order. It is conjectured that $|G:U|$ is bounded by some…

In this article we describe the $G\times G$-equivariant $K$-ring of $X$, where $X$ is a regular compactification of a connected complex reductive algebraic group $G$. Furthermore, in the case when $G$ is a semisimple group of adjoint type,…

Let $FG$ be the group algebra of a finite $p$-group $G$ over a finite field $F$ of characteristic $p$ and $*$ the classical involution of $FG$. The $*$-unitary subgroup of $FG$, denoted by $V_*(FG)$, is defined to be the set of all…

We define and explore in-depth the notion of {\it UQ rings} by showing their important properties and by comparing their behavior with that of the well-known classes of UU rings and JU rings, respectively. Specifically, among the other…

We define geometric/unipotent crystal structure on unipotent subgroups of semi-simple algebraic groups. We shall show that in $A_n$-case, their ultra-discretizations coincide with crystals obtained by generalizing Young tableaux.

We consider smooth representations of the unit group $G = \mathcal{A}^{\times}$ of a finite-dimensional split basic algebra $\mathcal{A}$ over a non-Archimedean local field. In particular, we prove a version of Gutkin's conjecture, namely,…
