AbstractLet G be a simple linear algebraic group defined over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic p ≥ 0, and let P be a maximal proper parabolic subgroup of G. If p > 0, then we will assume that dimG/P ≤ p. Let ι : H ↪ G/P be a reduced smooth hypersurface in G/P of degree d. We will assume that the pullback homomorphism is an isomorphism (this assumption is automatically satisfied when dimH ≥ 3). We prove that the tangent bundle of H is stable if the two conditions τ(G/P) ≠ d and hold; here n = dimH, and τ(G/P) ∈ is the index of G/P which is defined by the identity = where L is the ample generator of Pic(G/P) and is the anti–canonical line bundle of G/P. If d = τ(G/P), then the tangent bundle TH is proved to be semistable. If p > 0, and then TH is strongly stable. If p > 0, and d = τ(G/P), then TH is strongly semistable.

AbstractLet P be a maximal proper parabolic subgroup of a connected simple linear algebraic group G, defined over ℂ, such that n := dimℂG/P ≥ 4. Let ι : Z ↪ G/P be a reduced smooth hypersurface of degree at least (n – 1) · degree(T(G/P))/n. We prove that the restriction of the tangent bundle ι*TG/P is semistable.

Let G be a connected reductive linear algebraic group defined over an algebraically closed field of characteristic p. Assume that p is good for G. In this note we consider particular classes of connected reductive subgroups H of G and show that the cocharacters of H that are associated to a given nilpotent element e in the Lie algebra of H are precisely the cocharacters of G associated to e that take values in H. In particular, we show that this is the case provided H is a connected reductive subgroup of G of maximal rank; this answers a question posed by J. C. Jantzen.

AbstractLet E be a principal G–bundle over a smooth projective curve over an algebraically closed field k, where G is a reductive linear algebraic group over k. We construct a canonical reduction of E. The uniqueness of canonical reduction is proved under the assumption that the characteristic of k is zero. Under a mild assumption on the characteristic, the uniqueness is also proved when the characteristic of k is positive.

Abstract We consider G, a linear algebraic group defined over $\Bbbk $ , an algebraically closed field (ACF). By considering $\Bbbk $ as an embedded residue field of an algebraically closed valued field K, we can associate to it a compact G-space $S^\mu _G(\Bbbk )$ consisting of $\mu $ -types on G. We show that for each $p_\mu \in S^\mu _G(\Bbbk )$ , $\mathrm {Stab}^\mu (p)=\mathrm {Stab}\left (p_\mu \right )$ is a solvable infinite algebraic group when $p_\mu $ is centered at infinity and residually algebraic. Moreover, we give a description of the dimension of $\mathrm {Stab}\left (p_\mu \right )$ in terms of the dimension of p.

Abstract Let G be a simple algebraic group over an algebraically closed field K of characteristic {p>0} . We consider connected reductive subgroups X of G that contain a given distinguished unipotent element u of G. A result of Testerman and Zalesski [D. Testerman and A. Zalesski, Irreducibility in algebraic groups and regular unipotent elements, Proc. Amer. Math. Soc. 141 2013, 1, 13–28] shows that if u is a regular unipotent element, then X cannot be contained in a proper parabolic subgroup of G. We generalize their result and show that if u has order p, then except for two known examples which occur in the case {(G,p)=(C_{2},2)} , the subgroup X cannot be contained in a proper parabolic subgroup of G. In the case where u has order {>p} , we also present further examples arising from indecomposable tilting modules with quasi-minuscule highest weight.

Let G be a connected reductive linear algebraic group defined over an algebraically closed field k of positive characteristic. Let Z(G) ⊂ G be the center, and [Formula: see text], where each Gi is simple with trivial center. For i ∈ [1, m], let ρi : G → Gi be the natural projection. Fix a proper parabolic subgroup P of G such that for each i ∈ [1, m], the image ρi(G) ⊂ Gi is a proper parabolic subgroup. Fix a strictly anti-dominant character χ of P such that χ is trivial on Z(G). Let M be a smooth projective variety, defined over k, equipped with a very ample line bundle ξ. Let EG → M be a principal G-bundle. We prove that the following six statements are equivalent: (1) The line bundle EG(χ) → EG/P associated to the principal P-bundle EG → EG/P for the character χ is numerically effective. (2) The sequence of principal G-bundles [Formula: see text] is bounded, where FM is the absolute Frobenius morphism of M. (3) The principal G-bundle EG is strongly semistable with respect to ξ, and c2( ad (EG)) is numerically equivalent to zero. (4) The principal G-bundle EG is strongly semistable with respect to ξ, and [c2( ad (EG))c1(ξ)d-2] = 0. (5) The adjoint vector bundle ad (EG) is numerically effective. (6) For every pair of the form (Y,ψ), where Y is an irreducible smooth projective curve and ψ : Y → M is a morphism, the principal G-bundle ψ*EG → Y is semistable.

Let $G$ be a simple simply connected exceptional algebraic group of type $G_{2}$, $F_{4}$, $E_{6}$ or $E_{7}$ over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $p>0$ with $\mathfrak{g}=\text{Lie}(G)$. For each nilpotent orbit $G\cdot e$ of $\mathfrak{g}$, we list the Jordan blocks of the action of $e$ on the minimal induced module $V_{\text{min}}$ of $\mathfrak{g}$. We also establish when the centralizers $G_{v}$ of vectors $v\in V_{\text{min}}$ and stabilizers $\text{Stab}_{G}\langle v\rangle$ of $1$-spaces $\langle v\rangle \subset V_{\text{min}}$ are smooth; that is, when $\dim G_{v}=\dim \mathfrak{g}_{v}$ or $\dim \text{Stab}_{G}\langle v\rangle =\dim \text{Stab}_{\mathfrak{g}}\langle v\rangle$.

Let V be a variety, which means, an irreducible reduced projective scheme over an algebraically closed field of any characteristic. A line bundle L on V is said to be nef if LC ≧ 0 for any curve C in V. Thus, “nef” is never an abbreviation of “numerically equivalent to an effective divisor”. L is said to be big if k(L) = n = dim V. In case L is nef, it is big if and only if Ln > 0 (cf. [F7; (6.5)]. When L is nef and big, the pair (V, L) will be called a quasi-polarized variety.

Let K be an algebraically closed field of characteristic ρ >0. If G is a connected, simple connected, semisimple linear algebraic group defined over K and σ an endomorphism of G onto G such that the subgroup Gσ of fixed points of σ is finite, Steinberg ([6] [7]) has shown that there is a complex irreducible character χ of Gσ with the following properties. χ vanishes at all elements of Gσ which are not semi- simple, and, if x ∈ G is semisimple, χ(x) = ±n(x) where n(x)is the order of a Sylow p-subgroup of (ZG(x))σ (ZG(x) is the centraliser of x in G). If G is simple he has, in [6], identified the possible groups Gσ they are the Chevalley groups and their twisted analogues over finite fields, that is, the ‘simply connected’ versions of finite simple groups of Lie type. In this paper we show, under certain restrictions on the type of the simple algebraic group G an on the characteristic of K, that χ can be expressed as a linear combination with integral coefficients of characters induced from linear characters of certain naturally defined subgroups of Gσ. This expression for χ gives an explanation for the occurence of n(x) in the formula for χ (x), and also gives an interpretation for the ± 1 occuring in the formula in terms of invariants of the reductive algebraic group ZG(x).
