For an odd quadratic space $V$ of Witt index $\geq 3$ over a commutative ring with pseudoinvolution, we classify the subgroups of the odd unitary group $U(V)$ that are normalized by the elementary subgroup $EU_{(e_1,e_{-1})}(V)$ defined by…

The rational Cherednik algebra $\HH$ is a certain algebra of differential-reflection operators attached to a complex reflection group $W$. Each irreducible representation $S^\lambda$ of $W$ corresponds to a standard module $M(\lambda)$ for…

Isotropic odd unitary groups generalize Chevalley groups of classical types over commutative rings and their twisted forms. Such groups have root subgroups parameterized by a root system $\mathsf{BC}_\ell$ and may be constructed by…

We use the pro-group approach to show that $\mathrm{StO}(M, q)$ admits van der Kallen's "another presentation", where $M$ is a module over a commutative ring with sufficiently isotropic quadratic form $q$. Moreover, we construct an analog…

The paper studies the lattice of subgroups of an isotropic reductive group G(R) over a commutative ring R, normalized by the elementary subgroup E(R). We prove the sandwich classification theorem for this lattice under the assumptions that…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $K$ a finite field of characteristic $2$. Denote by $t$ the $2$-rank of the commutator factor group $G/G'$ and by $s$ the number of self-dual simple $KG$-modules. Then the Witt group of equivariant quadratic…

In this paper we consider the integral orthogonal group with respect to the quadratic form of signature $(2,3)$ given by $\left(\begin{smallmatrix} 0 & 1 \\ 1 & 0 \end{smallmatrix}\right) \perp \left(\begin{smallmatrix} 0 & 1 \\ 1 & 0…

A subgroup $H$ of a group $G$ is said to be pronormal in $G$ if $H$ and $H^g$ are conjugate in $\langle H, H^g \rangle$ for every $g \in G$. In this paper we classify finite simple groups $E_6(q)$ and ${}^2E_6(q)$ in which all the subgroups…

We study the commutator subgroup of integral orthogonal groups belonging to indefinite quadratic forms. We show that the index of this commutator is 2 for many groups that occur in the construction of moduli spaces in algebraic geometry, in…

In this article, we give explicit proofs of certain commutator relations among the elementary generators of the elementary orthogonal group $EO_A(Q\perp H(P))$, where $A$ is a commutative ring, $Q$ is a non-singular quadratic $A$-space and…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring and $I\subset R$ be a nilpotent ideal such that the quotient $R/I$ splits out of $R$ as a ring. Let $N$ be a natural number such that ${I^N=0}$. We establish a canonical isomorphism between the relative Milnor…

Let $C$ be a smooth projective curve defined over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ ($q$ is odd) and let $K=\mathbb{F}_q(C)$ be its function field. Any finite set $S$ of closed points of $C$ gives rise to an integral domain…
