Let $G$ be a simply connected Chevalley--Demazure group scheme without $SL_2$-factors. For any unital commutative ring $R$, we denote by $E(R)$ the standard elementary subgroup of $G(R)$, that is, the subgroup generated by the elementary…

We prove part of a higher rank analogue of the Mazur-Gouvea Conjecture. More precisely, let $\tilde{\bf G}$ be a connected, reductive ${\Bbb Q}$-split group and let $\Gamma$ be an arithmetic subgroup of $\tilde{\bf G}$. We show that the…

Let ${\bf G}$ be a simply connected semisimple algebraic group over $\Bbbk=\bar{\mathbb{F}}_q$, the algebraically closure of $\mathbb{F}_q$ (the finite field with $q=p^e$ elements), and $F$ be the standard Frobenius map. Let ${\bf B}$ be an…

In this short note we prove that every maximal torus action on the free algebra is conjugate to a linear action. This statement is the free algebra analogue of a classical theorem of A. Bia{\l}ynicki-Birula.

Let $\overline G$ be the wonderful compactification of a simple affine algebraic group $G$ defined over $\mathbb C$ such that its center is trivial and $G\not= {\rm PSL}(2,\mathbb{C})$. Take a maximal torus $T \subset G$, and denote by…

For a flag manifold $M=G/B$ with the canonical torus action, the $T-$equivariant cohomology is generated by equivariant Schubert classes, with one class $\tau_u$ for every element $u$ of the Weyl group $W$. These classes are determined by…

Given an element $P(X_1,...,X_d)$ of the finitely generated free Lie algebra, for any Lie algebra $g$ we can consider the induced polynomial map $P: g^d\to g$. Assuming that $K$ is an arbitrary field of characteristic $\ne 2$, we prove that…

We prove that an element $g$ of prime order $>3$ belongs to the solvable radical $R(G)$ of a finite (or, more generally, a linear) group if and only if for every $x\in G$ the subgroup generated by $g, xgx^{-1}$ is solvable. This theorem…

The efficacy of using complexifications to understand the structure of real algebraic groups is demonstrated. In particular the following results are proved: a) If L is an algebraic subgroup of a connected real algebraic group G such that…

Let $G$ be a real linear algebraic group and $L$ a finitely generated cosimplicial group. We prove that the space of homomorphisms $Hom(L_n,G)$ has a homotopy stable decomposition for each $n\geq 1$. When $G$ is a compact Lie group, we show…

We prove a Chevalley formula to multiply the motivic Chern classes of Schubert cells in a generalized flag manifold $G/P$ by the class of any line bundle $\mathcal{L}_\lambda$. Our formula is given in terms of the $\lambda$-chains of Lenart…

Let $\mathcal{U}$ be the unipotent variety of a complex reductive group $G$. Fix opposed Borel subgroups $B_\pm \subseteq G$ with unipotent radicals $U_\pm$. The map that sends $x_+x_- \mapsto x_+x_-x_+^{-1}$ for all $x_\pm \in U_\pm$…

Let $G$ be a simply connected exponential solvable Lie group, $H$ a closed connected subgroup, and let $\tau$ be a representation of $G$ induced from a unitary character $\chi_f$ of $H$. The spectrum of $\tau$ corresponds via the orbit…

Let $G$ be a reductive group over $\mathbb{F}_{p}$ with associated finite group of Lie type $G^{F}$. Let $T$ be a maximal torus contained inside a Borel $B$ of $G$. We relate the (rational) Tate motives of $\text{B}G^{F}$ with the…

We prove that any flat family $(\mathcal{ F}_u)_{u\in U}$ of rank 2 torsion-free sheaves on a Gauduchon surface defines a continuous map on the semi-stable locus $U^{\mathrm {ss}}:=\{u\in U \ |\ \mathcal{ F}_u\hbox{ is slope semi-stable}\}$…

In this paper, we prove two structure theorems for twisted Chevalley groups $G_\sigma (R)$ over a commutative ring $R$ with unity. The first theorem concerns the normality of $E'_\sigma (R,J)$, the elementary congruence subgroups at level…

Let $r\geq 3$ be any positive integer which is relatively prime to $p$ and $q^2\equiv 1 \pmod r$. Let $\tau_1, \tau_2$ be any permutation polynomials over $\mathbb{F}_{q^2},$ $\sigma_M$ is an invertible linear map over $\mathbb{F}_{q^2}$…

The current article continues a series of papers on decomposition of unipotents and its applications. Let $G(\Phi,R)$ be a Chevalley group with a reduced irreducible root system $\Phi$ over a commutative ring $R$. Fix $h\in G(\Phi,R)$. Call…

We associate a root system to a finite set in a free abelian group and prove that its irreducible subsystem is of type A, B or D. We apply this general result to a torus manifold, where a torus manifold is a $2n$-dimensional connected…

We prove that the solvable radical of a finite group G coincides with the set of elements y having the following property: for any x in G the subgroup of G generated by x and y is solvable. We present analogues of this result for finite…
