Given a group $G$ with bounded torsion that acts properly on a systolic complex, we show that every solvable subgroup of $G$ is finitely generated and virtually abelian of rank at most $2$. In particular this gives a new proof of the above…

This paper contains a complete proof of a fundamental theorem on the normalizers of unipotent subgroups in semisimple algebraic groups.

For an arbitrary connected solvable spherical subgroup H of a connected semisimple algebraic group G we compute the group N_G(H), the normalizer of H in G. Thereby we complete a classification of all (not necessarily connected) solvable…

We show that for each element $g$ of a Garside group, there exists a positive integer $m$ such that $g^m$ is conjugate to a periodically geodesic element $h$, an element with $|h^n|_\D=|n|\cdot|h|_\D$ for all integers $n$, where $|g|_\D$…

We determine all finite subgroups of simple algebraic groups that have irreducible centralizers - that is, centralizers whose connected component does not lie in a parabolic subgroup.

We describe a new approach for classifying conjugacy classes of elementary abelian subgroups in simple algebraic groups over an algebraically closed field, and understanding the normaliser and centraliser structure of these. For toral…

A recent result of Balandraud shows that for every subset S of an abelian group G, there exists a non trivial subgroup H such that |TS| <= |T|+|S|-2 holds only if the stabilizer of TS contains H. Notice that Kneser's Theorem says only that…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $\mathcal{U} (\mathbb{Z} G)$ the unit group of the integral group ring $\mathbb{Z} G$. We prove a unit theorem, namely a characterization of when $\mathcal{U}(\mathbb{Z}G)$ satisfies Kazhdan's property…

Let $G$ be a linear algebraic group over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p\geq 0$. We show that if $H_1$ and $H_2$ are connected subgroups of $G$ such that $H_1$ and $H_2$ have a common maximal unipotent subgroup and…

Let G be a totally disconnected, locally compact group. A closed subgroup of G is locally normal if its normaliser is open in G. We begin an investigation of the structure of the family of closed locally normal subgroups of G. Modulo…

Let k be a separably closed field. Let G be a reductive algebraic k-group. In this paper, we study Serre's notion of complete reducibility of subgroups of G over k. In particular, using the recently proved center conjecture of Tits, we show…

Our main goal is to determine, under certain restrictions, the maximal closed connected subgroups of simple algebraic groups containing a regular torus. We call a torus regular if its centralizer is abelian. We also obtain some results of…

Let $A$ be an elementary abelian $r$-group with rank at least $3$ that acts faithfully on the finite $r'$-group $G$. Assume that $G$ is $A$-simple, so that $G = K_{1} \times\cdots\times K_{n}$ where $K_{1},\ldots,K_{n}$ is a collection of…

Let $\overline G$ be the wonderful compactification of a simple affine algebraic group $G$ defined over $\mathbb C$ such that its center is trivial and $G\not= {\rm PSL}(2,\mathbb{C})$. Take a maximal torus $T \subset G$, and denote by…

A subgroup $H$ of a group $G$ is said to be a TNI-subgroup if $N_{G}(H)\cap H^g=1$ for any $g\in G\,\backslash \,N_{G}(H).$ Let $A$ be an abelian group acting coprimely on the finite group $G$ by automorphisms in such a way that…

According to Markov, a subset of an abelian group G of the form {x in G: nx=a}, for some integer n and some element a of G, is an elementary algebraic set; finite unions of elementary algebraic sets are called algebraic sets. We prove that…

We describe here the lower garland of some lattices of intermediate subgroups in linear groups. The results are applied to the case of subgroup lattices in general and special linear groups over a class of rings, containing the group of…

Let $G$ and $H$ be groups that act compatibly on each other. We denote by $[G,H]$ the derivative subgroup of $G$ under $H$. We prove that if the set $\{g^{-1}g^h \mid g \in G, h \in H\}$ has $m$ elements, then the derivative $[G,H]$ is…

Let $G$ be a group. We denote by $\nu(G)$ a certain extension of the non-abelian tensor square $G \otimes G$ by $G \times G$. In this paper we prove that the derived subgroup $\nu(G)'$ is a central product of three normal subgroups of…

The Garside group, as a generalization of braid groups and Artin groups of finite types, is defined as the group of fractions of a Garside monoid. We show that the semidirect product of Garside monoids is a Garside monoid. We use the…
