We describe the group SK_1(R[G]) for group rings R[G] where G is an arbitrary finite group and where the coefficient ring R is a p-adically complete Noetherian integral domain of characteristic zero which admits a lift of Frobenius and…
The spectrum $\omega(G)$ of a finite group $G$ is the set of element orders of $G$. Finite groups $G$ and $H$ are isospectral if their spectra coincide. Suppose that $L$ is a simple classical group of sufficiently large dimension (the lower…
For each finite classical group $G$, we classify the subgroups of $G$ which act transitively on a $G$-invariant set of subspaces of the natural module, where the subspaces are either totally isotropic or nondegenerate. Our proof uses the…
Given a complex simply connected simple algebraic group $G$ of exceptional type and a maximal parabolic subgroup $P \subset G$, we classify all triples $(G,P,H)$ such that $H \subset G$ is a maximal reductive subgroup acting spherically on…
Beyond the crucial role they play in the foundations of the theory of overconvergent modular forms, canonical subgroups have found new applications to analytic continuation of overconvergent modular forms. For such applications, it is…
For an unramified connected reductive group $G$ defined over a number field $F$, consider the part of the spherical automorphic spectrum with cuspidal support $[T,\mathcal{O}(\chi)]$, where $T$ is a maximal torus and $\chi$ is an unramified…
We present basic properties of Gr\"obner bases of submodules of a free module of finite rank over a polynomial ring $R$ with coefficients in a graded truncated discrete valuations ring $A$. As an application, we give a criterion for a…
Let k be a perfect field of characteristic p>0. When p>2, Fontaine and Laffaille have classified p-divisibles groups and finite flat p-groups over the Witt vectors W(k) in terms of filtered modules. Still assuming p>2, we extend these…
For a finite group $G$, let $\sigma(G)$ be the number of subgroups of $G$ and $\sigma_\iota(G)$ the number of isomorphism types of subgroups of $G$. Let $L=L_r(p^e)$ denote a simple group of Lie type, rank $r$, over a field of order $p^e$…
It was proved by Valenti and Zaicev, in 2011, that, if $G$ is an abelian group and $K$ is an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, then any $G$-grading on the algebra of upper block triangular matrices over $K$ is isomorphic to…
Let $R$ be a complete discrete valuation ring with perfect residue field $k$ of positive characteristic $p$ and field of fractions $K$ of characteristic 0. In this paper we consider a $K$-1-motive $M_K$ as in [Ra] and its associated…
We obtain a necessary and sufficient condition for an algebraic set in a group to have a fully characteristic radical. As a result, we see that if the radical of a system of equation $S$ over a group $G$ is fully characteristic, then there…
Let G be a group acting geometrically on a CAT(0) cube complex X. We prove first that G is hyperbolic relative to the collection P of subgroups if and only if the simplicial boundary of X is the disjoint union of a nonempty discrete set,…
Let G be a Chevalley group scheme and B<=G a Borel subgroup scheme, both defined over Z. Let K be a global function field, S be a finite non-empty set of places over K, and O_S be the corresponding S-arithmetic ring. Then, the S-arithmetic…
Let $\Gamma$ be a discrete subgroup of a simply connected, solvable Lie group~$G$, such that $\Ad_G\Gamma$ has the same Zariski closure as $\Ad G$. If $\alpha \colon \Gamma \to \GL_n(\real)$ is any finite-dimensional representation…
Let $C \subset P^{g-1}$ be a smooth canonical curve of genus $g \geq 3$. The purpose of this article is to further develop a method to classify varieties having $C$ as their curve section, using Gaussian map computations. In a previous…
Let G be a connected reductive group defined over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic p > 0. The purpose of this paper is two-fold. First, when p is a good prime, we give a new proof of the ``order formula'' of D. Testerman…
In this paper we describe an algorithm for the computation of canonical forms of finite subsets of $\mathbb{Z}^d$, up to affinities over $\mathbb{Z}$. For fixed dimension $d$, this algorithm has worst-case asymptotic complexity $O(n \log^2…
We obtain some general restrictions on the continuous endomorphisms of a profinite group G under the assumption that G has only finitely many open subgroups of each index (an assumption which automatically holds, for instance, if G is…
We study equivariant real structures on spherical varieties. We call such a structure canonical if it is equivariant with respect to the involution defining the split real form of the acting reductive group G. We prove the existence and…
