We generalize to the super context, the known fact that if an affine algebraic group $G$ over a commutative ring $k$ acts freely (in an appropriate sense) on an affine scheme $X$ over $k$, then the dur sheaf $X\tilde{\tilde{/}}G$ of…

Let $E_1$ and $E_2$ be elliptic curves in Legendre form with integer parameters. We show there exists a constant $C$ such that for almost all primes, for all but at most $C$ pairs of points on the reduction of $E_1 \times E_2$ modulo $p$…

We study compact complex manifolds $M$ admitting a conformal holomorphic Riemannian structure invariant under the action of a complex semi-simple Lie group $G$. We prove that if the group $G$ acts transitively and essentially, then $M$ is…

Let $q$ be a power of a prime $p$ and let $G$ be a completely reducible subgroup of $\mathrm{GL}(d,q)$. We prove that the number of composition factors of $G$ that have prime order $p$ is at most $(\varepsilon_q d-1)/(p-1)$, where…

We initiate the study of p-adic algebraic groups G from the stability-theoretic and definable topological-dynamical points of view, that is, we consider invariants of the action of G on its space of types over Q_p in the language of fields.…

A transitive smooth action of a connected Lie group G on a manifold M is called almost primitive (resp. primitive) if G doesn't contain any proper subgroup (resp. any proper normal subgroup) whose induced action on M is transitive as well.…

For a finite group G of Lie type and a prime p, we compare the automorphism groups of the fusion and linking systems of G at p with the automorphism group of G itself. When p is the defining characteristic of G, they are all isomorphic,…

Let $G$ be a simple algebraic group over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p>0$ and suppose that $p$ is a very good prime for $G$. We prove that any maximal Lie subalgebra $M$ of $\mathfrak{g} = {\rm Lie}(G)$ with ${\rm…

For an isotropic reductive group G satisfying a suitable rank condition over an infinite field k, we show that the sections of the $\mathbb{A}^1$-fundamental group sheaf of G over an extension field L/k can be identified with the second…

The special linear representation of a compact Lie group G is a kind of linear representation of compact Lie group G with special properties. It is possible to define the integral of linear representation and extend this concept to special…

We show that if a finite simple group G isomorphic to PSL(n,q) or PSU(n,q), where either $n\ne 4$, or q is prime or even, acts on a vector space over a field of the defining characteristic of G, then the corresponding semidirect product…

Let $p$ be a prime number and let $F$ be a field containing a root of unity of order $p$. We prove that a certain very small canonical Galois group $(G_F)_{[3]}$ over $F$ encodes the valuations on $F$ whose value group is not $p$-divisible…

Let G be a compact real Lie group, and let f be an irreducible complex character of G, of degree > 1. We show that there exists an element g of G, of finite order, such that f(g)=0. We also give an unpublished result of Deligne, about…

In this article, we introduce the study of a class of finite groups $G$ which admits a subgroup which intersects all non-trivial subgroups of $G$. We also explore a subclass of it consisting of all groups $G$ in which the prime order…

A pseudo-hyperoval of a projective space $\PG(3n-1,q)$, $q$ even, is a set of $q^n+2$ subspaces of dimension $n-1$ such that any three span the whole space. We prove that a pseudo-hyperoval with an irreducible transitive stabiliser is…

This is an essay about a certain family of elements in the general linear group GL(d,q) called primitive prime divisor elements, or ppd-elements. A classification of the subgroups of GL(d,q) which contain such elements is discussed, and the…

Let $\sigma =\{\sigma_{i} | i\in I\}$ be some partition of the set of all primes $\Bbb{P}$ and $G$ a finite group. $G$ is said to be $\sigma$-soluble if every chief factor $H/K$ of $G$ is a $\sigma _{i}$-group for some $i=i(H/K)$. A set…

Ideas and techniques from Khare's and Wintenberger's article on the proof of Serre's conjecture for odd conductors are used to establish that for a fixed prime l infinitely many of the groups PSL_2(F_{l^r}) (for r running) occur as Galois…

Let p be an odd prime, K a finite extension of Q_p, G=Gal(\bar K/K) the Galois group and e=e(K/Q_p) the ramification index. Suppose T is a p^n torsion representation such that T is isomorphic to a quotient of two G-stable Z_p-lattices in a…

Let $\mathcal{D}$ be a non-trivial $G$-block-transitive $3$-$(v,k,1)$ design, where $T\leq G \leq \mathrm{Aut}(T)$ for some finite non-abelian simple group $T$. It is proved that if $T$ is a simple exceptional group of Lie type, then $T$ is…
