In this paper, we completely determine the irreducible characters of the four families of Suzuki $p$-groups.
We give a characterization of the Deligne-Lusztig curve associated to the Suzuki group based on the genus and the number of rational points of the curve.
This note is concerned with the unipotent characters of the Ree groups of type G_2. We determine the roots of unity associated by Lusztig and Digne-Michel to unipotent characters of ^2G_2(3^{2n+1}) and we prove that the Fourier matrix of…
In this paper, we extend the notion of Shintani descent to general (possibly disconnected) algebraic groups defined over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$. For this, it is essential to treat all the pure inner $\mathbb{F}_q$-rational forms of…
We determine the combinatorial depth of certain subgroups of simple Suzuki groups Sz(q), among others the depth of their maximal subgroups. We apply these results to determine the ordinary depth of these subgroups.
Inspired by a recent paper of Garcia, Stichtenoth and Xing [2000, Compositio Math. 120, 137--170], we investigate the quotient curves of the Deligne-Lusztig curve associated to the Suzuki group.
Inspired by the Gan-Gross-Prasad conjecture and the descent problem for classical groups, in this paper we study the descents of unipotent representations of unitary groups over finite fields. We give the first descents of unipotent…
Let $S$ be a Suzuki group $^2B_2(q^2)$, where $q^2=2^{2f+1}$, $f\geqslant 1$. In this paper, we determine the degrees of the ordinary complex irreducible characters of every group $G$ such that $S\leqslant G\leqslant \Aut(S)$.
Inspired by the Gan-Gross-Prasad conjecture and the descent problem for classical groups, in this paper we study the descents of unipotent cuspidal representations of orthogonal and symplectic groups over finite fields.
Let $\mathcal{A}(q)$ be a finite-dimensional nilpotent algebra over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_{q}$ with $q$ elements, and let $G(q) = 1+\mathcal{A}(q)$. On the other hand, let $\Bbbk$ denote the algebraic closure of $\mathbb{F}_{q}$, and…
Let $G$ be a finite reductive group defined over a finite field $F_q$. In the case where $G$ is a special linear group, we compute the multiplicities of irreducible characters of $G(F_{q^2})$ with the character of $G(F_{q^2})$ induced from…
In this paper we show that the rank of every chiral polytope having a Suzuki group as automorphism group is $3$. This gives a positive answer to a conjecture of Isabel Hubard and Dimitri Leemans.
We determine the unipotent orbits attached to degenerate Eisenstein series on general linear groups. This confirms a conjecture of David Ginzburg. This also shows that any unipotent orbit of general linear groups does occur as the unipotent…
The definition of Suzuki groups over rings is given by means of an explicit description as a difference-algebraic group. For a (not necessarily perfect) field with more than two elements this construction produces a simple group.
It is shown that Suzuki-Ree groups can be easily defined by means of comparing two fundamental representations of the ambient Chevalley group in characteristic 2 or 3. This eliminates the distinction between the Suzuki-Ree groups over…
We classify up to Morita equivalence all blocks whose defect groups are Suzuki $2$-groups. The classification holds for blocks over a suitable discrete valuation ring as well as for those over an algebraically closed field, and in fact…
For a finite group $G$ and a positive integer $n$, let $G(n)$ be the set of all elements in $G$ such that $x^{n}=1$. The groups $G$ and $H$ are said to be of the same (order) type if $G(n)=H(n)$, for all $n$. The main aim of this paper is…
The subgroup commutativity degree of a group G has been defined in [6] as the probability that two subgroups of G commute, or equivalently that the product of two subgroups is again a subgroup. Problem 4.3 of [6] asks whether there exist…
The spread of a group $G$, written $s(G)$, is the largest $k$ such that for any nontrivial elements $x_1, \dots, x_k \in G$ there exists $y \in G$ such that $G = \langle x_i, y \rangle$ for all $i$. Burness, Guralnick and Harper recently…
In this paper we have investigated some properties of the power graph and commuting graph associated with a finite group, using their tree-numbers. Among other things, it has been shown that the simple group $L_2(7)$ can be characterized…
