Let $V$ be a vector space of dimension $d$ over $F_q$, a finite field of $q$ elements, and let $G \le GL(V) \cong GL_d(q)$ be a linear group. A base of $G$ is a set of vectors whose pointwise stabiliser in $G$ is trivial. We prove that if…

Let p and $\ell$ be two distinct primes, F a p-adic field and n an integer. We show that any level 0 block of the category of smooth Z $\ell$-valued representations of GL n (F) is equivalent to the unipotent block of an appropriate product…

Let $G$ be a compact $p$-adic analytic group. We recall the well-understood finite radical $\Delta^+$ and FC-centre $\Delta$, and introduce a $p$-adic analogue of Roseblade's subgroup $\mathrm{nio}(G)$, the unique largest orbitally sound…

Let $X$ be a nonempty real variety that is invariant under the action of a reflection group $G$. We conjecture that if $X$ is defined in terms of the first $k$ basic invariants of $G$ (ordered by degree), then $X$ meets a $k$-dimensional…

Let $p$ be an odd prime and let $G$ be a non-abelian finite $p$-group of exponent $p^2$ with three distinct characteristic subgroups, namely $1$, $G^p$, and $G$. The quotient group $G/G^p$ gives rise to an anti-commutative ${\mathbb…

We obtain a Lie theoretic intrinsic characterization of the connected and simply connected solvable Lie groups whose regular representation is a factor representation. When this is the case, the corresponding von Neumann algebras are…

A $G$-grading on an algebra is called multiplicity free if each homogeneous component of the grading is 1-dimensional, where $G$ is an abelian group. We introduce skew root systems of Lie type and skew root systems of Jordan type…

We prove that for any closed smooth $4$-manifold $X$ there exists a constant $C$ with the property that each finite subgroup $G<Diff(X)$ has a subgroup $N$ which is abelian or nilpotent of class $2$, and which satisfies $[G:N]\leq C$. We…

We study the geometry of the stratification induced by an affine hyperplane arrangement H on the quotient of a complex affine space by the action of a discrete group preserving H. We give conditions ensuring normality or normality in…

Let $G$ be a nontrivial permutation group of degree $n$. If $G$ is transitive, then a theorem of Jordan states that $G$ has a derangement. Equivalently, a finite group is never the union of conjugates of a proper subgroup. If $G$ is…

In Lie theory, a dense orbit in the unipotent radical of a parabolic group under the adjoint action is called a Richardson orbit. We define a quiver-graded version of Richardson orbits generalising the classical definition in the case of…

We present two criteria for a group $G$ to satisfy the following statements: any $G$-graded gr-prime (gr-semiprime) right gr-Goldie ring admits a gr-semisimple graded right classical quotient ring. The criterion for gr-semiprime rings is…

The main result here gives an algebra(/linear category) isomorphism between a geometrically defined subcategory $J^1_0$ of a short Brauer category $J_0$ and a certain one-parameter specialisation of the blob category $b$. That is, we prove…

Let $F$ be a non-Archimedean local field with the ring of integers $\mathcal{O}$ and the prime ideal $\mathfrak{p}$ and let $G={\bf G}\left(\mathcal{O}/\mathfrak{p}^n\right)$ be the adjoint Chevalley group. Let $m_f(G)$ denote the smallest…

We prove, for certain pairs G,G of finite groups of Lie type, that the p-fusion systems for G and G' are equivalent. In other words, there is an isomorphism between a Sylow p-subgroup of G and one of G' which preserves p-fusion. This…

Jespers and Sun conjectured that if a finite group $G$ has the property ND, i.e. for every nilpotent element $n$ in the integral group ring $\mathbb{Z}G$ and every primitive central idempotent $e \in \mathbb{Q}G$ one still has $ne \in…

Let $G$ be a real classical group (including the real metaplectic group). We consider a nilpotent adjoint orbit $\check{\mathcal O}$ of $\check G$, the Langlands dual of $G$ (or the metaplectic dual of $G$ when $G$ is a real metaplectic…

We address a Jordan version of Johnson theorem on (associative) algebras of quotients, namely whether a strongly nonsingular (the Jordan version of nonsingularity) has a von Neumann regular algebra of quotients. Although the answer is…

Let $\mathcal{C}$ be a smooth, projective and geometrically integral curve defined over a finite field $\mathbb{F}$. Let $A$ be the ring of function of $\mathcal{C}$ that are regular outside a closed point $P$ and let $k=\mathrm{Quot}(A)$.…

Let $H$ be a subgroup of $\text{Sym}_n$, the symmetric group of degree $n$. For a fixed integer $l \geq 2$, the group $G$ presented with generators $x_1, x_2, \ldots ,x_n$ and with relations $x_{i_1}x_{i_2}\cdots x_{i_l} =x_{\sigma (i_1)}…
