Let $F$ be any non-Archimedean local field with residue field of cardinality $q_F$. In this article, we obtain a classification of typical representations for the Bernstein components associated to the inertial classes of the form $[{\rm…

For a given abelian group G, we classify the isomorphism classes of G-gradings on the simple Lie algebras of types A_n (n >= 1), B_n (n >= 2), C_n (n >= 3) and D_n (n > 4), in terms of numerical and group-theoretical invariants. The ground…

We show that for every positive integer $n$ there exists a simple group that is of type $\mathrm{F}_{n-1}$ but not of type $\mathrm{F}_n$. For $n\ge 3$ these groups are the first known examples of this kind. They also provide infinitely…

We find an explicit presentation of relative linear Steinberg groups $\mathrm{St}(n, R, I)$ for any ring $R$ and $n \geq 4$ by generators and relations as abstract groups. We also prove a similar result for relative simply laced Steinberg…

Shift registers/Primitive polynomials find applications in various branches of Mathematics, Coding Theory and Cryptography. Matrix analogues of primitive polynomials do exist. In this paper, an algorithmic approach to generating all such…

We introduce an elementary class of linearly ordered groups, called growth order groups, encompassing certain groups under composition of formal series (e.g. transseries) as well as certain groups $\mathcal{G}_{\mathcal{M}}$ of infinitely…

We first obtain explicit upper bounds for the proportion of elements in a finite classical group G with a given characteristic polynomial. We use this to complete the proof that the proportion of elements of a finite classical group G which…

We establish correspondances between factorisations of finite abelian groups (direct factors, unitary factors, non isomorphic subgroup classes) and factorisations of integer matrices. We then study counting functions associated to these…

The classical result, due to Jordan, Burnside, Dickson, says that every normal subgroup of $GL(n, K)$ ($K$ - a field, $n \geq 3$) which is not contained in the center, contains $SL(n, K)$. A. Rosenberg gave description of normal subgroups…

We introduce so-called "classical" algebraic group over a general base scheme, and then place them where they belong in the classification of reductive groups established in SGA3. We cover the non-split cases and we describe on the way…

Let $A$ be an arbitrary symmetrizable Cartan matrix of rank $r$, and ${\bf n}={\bf n_+}$ be the standard maximal nilpotent subalgebra in the Kac-Moody algebra associated with $A$ (thus, ${\bf n}$ is generated by $E_1,\ldots,E_r$ subject to…

The following properties are preserved under elementary equivalence, among finitely generated groups: being hyperbolic (possibly with torsion), being hyperbolic and cubulable, and being a subgroup of a hyperbolic group. In other words, if a…

The goal of invariant theory is to find all the generators for the algebra of representations of a group that leave the group invariant. Such generators will be called \emph{basic invariants}. In particular, we set out to find the set of…

In this paper, we compute the essential $l$-dimension of the finite groups of classical Lie type for odd primes $l$ not equal to the defining prime, specifically the general linear groups, the symplectic groups, the orthogonal groups, and…

It is still open whether there exist infinitely many Fermat primes or infinitely many composite Fermat numbers. The same question concerning the Mersenne numbers is also unsolved. Extending some results from [9], we characterizethe the…

We define a generalized Springer correspondence for the group GL(n) over any field. We also determine the cuspidal pairs, and compute the correspondence explicitly. Finally we define a stratification of the category of equivariant perverse…

We investigate the configuration where a group of finite Morley rank acts definably and generically $m$-transitively on an elementary abelian $p$-group of Morley rank $n$, where $p$ is an odd prime, and $m\geqslant n$. We conclude that…

We realize Frobenius conjugacy classes in Galois groups of certain $q$-polynomials over $\mathbb{F}_q(t)$ using specific degree 1 ideals. We combine this with methods from elementary linear algebra and group theory to realize transvections…

A self-similar group of finite type is the profinite group of all automorphisms of a regular rooted tree that locally around every vertex act as elements of a given finite group of allowed actions. We provide criteria for determining when a…

We classify gradings by arbitrary abelian groups on the classical simple Lie superalgebras $P(n)$, $n \geq 2$, and on the simple associative superalgebras $M(m,n)$, $m, n \geq 1$, over an algebraically closed field: fine gradings up to…
