Quartic Form

AbstractAn algebraic group of type E7 over an algebraically closed field has an irreducible representation in a vector space of dimension 56 and is, in fact, the identity component of the automorphism group of a quartic form on the space. This paper describes the construction of the quartic form if the characteristic is ≠ 2, 3, taking into account a field of definition F. Certain F-forms of E7 appear in the automorphism groups of quartic forms over F, as well as forms of E6. Many of the results of the paper are known, but are perhaps not easily accessible in the literature.

Algebraically Closed Field

Abstract We study the automorphisms of a function field of genus g ≥ 2 over an algebraically closed field of characteristic p > 0. More precisely, we show that the order of a nilpotent subgroup G of its automorphism group is bounded by 16 (g – 1) when G is not a p-group. We show that if |G| = 16(g – 1), then g – 1 is a power of 2. Furthermore, we provide an infinite family of function fields attaining the bound.

Chevalley Involution

AbstractThe Chevalley involution of a connected, reductive algebraic group over an algebraically closed field takes every semisimple element to a conjugate of its inverse, and this involution is unique up to conjugacy. In the case of the reals we prove the existence of a real Chevalley involution, which is defined over $\mathbb{R}$, takes every semisimple element of $G(\mathbb{R})$ to a $G(\mathbb{R})$-conjugate of its inverse, and is unique up to conjugacy by $G(\mathbb{R})$. We derive some consequences, including an analysis of groups for which every irreducible representation is self-dual, and a calculation of the Frobenius Schur indicator for such groups.

The Absolute

We study a relative variant of Serre’s notion of $G$ -complete reducibility for a reductive algebraic group $G$ . We let $K$ be a reductive subgroup of $G$ , and consider subgroups of $G$ that normalize the identity component $K^{\circ }$ . We show that such a subgroup is relatively $G$ -completely reducible with respect to $K$ if and only if its image in the automorphism group of $K^{\circ }$ is completely reducible. This allows us to generalize a number of fundamental results from the absolute to the relative setting. We also derive analogous results for Lie subalgebras of the Lie algebra of $G$ , as well as ‘rational’ versions over nonalgebraically closed fields.

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.

The Ideal

This paper considers the properties of the representation of a Lie algebra when restricted to an ideal, the subduced* representation of the ideal. This point of view leads to new forms for irreducible representations of Lie algebras, once the concept of matrices of invariance is developed. This concept permits us to show that irreducible representations of a Lie algebra, over an algebraically closed field, can be expressed as a Lie-Kronecker product whose factors are associated with the representation subduced on an ideal. Conversely, if one has such factors, it is shown that they can be put together to give an irreducible representation of the Lie algebra. A valuable guide to this work was supplied by a paper of Clifford (1).

Simply Connected

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 $\dim \text{Stab}_{G}\langle v\rangle =\dim \text{Stab}_{\mathfrak{g}}\langle v\rangle$.

Nilpotent Elements

LetGbe a simple adjoint algebraic group over an algebraically closed fieldK. We are concerned to describe the conjugacy classes of unipotent elements ofG. Goperates on its Lie algebra g by means of the adjoint action and we may consider classes of nilpotent elements of g under this action. It has been shown by Springer (11) that there is a bijection between the unipotent elements ofGand the nilpotent elements ofgwhich preserves theG-action, provided that the characteristic ofKis either 0 or a ‘good prime’ forG. Thus we may concentrate on the problem of classifying the nilpotent elements of g under the adjointG-action.

AbstractLetL=H(2r;n) be a graded Lie algebra of Hamiltonian type in the Cartan type series over an algebraically closed field of characteristicp>2. In the generalized restricted Lie algebra setup, any irreducible representation ofLcorresponds uniquely to a (generalized)p-characterχ. When the height ofχis no more than min {pni−pni−1∣i=1,2,…,2r}−2, the corresponding irreducible representations are proved to be induced from irreducible representations of the distinguished maximal subalgebraL0with the aid of an analogy of Skryabin’s category ℭ for the generalized Jacobson–Witt algebras and modulo finitely many exceptional cases. Since the exceptional simple modules have been classified, we can then give a full description of the irreducible representations withp-characters of height below this number.

The Relationship

This paper examines the relationship between the automorphism group of a hyperelliptic curve defined over an algebraically closed field of characteristic two and the 2-rank of the curve. In particular, we exploit the wild ramification to use the Deuring–Shafarevich formula in order to analyze the ramification of hyperelliptic curves that admit extra automorphisms and use this data to impose restrictions on the genera and 2-ranks of such curves. We also show how some of the techniques and results carry over to the case where our base field is of characteristic p > 2.

Simple Lie Algebras

AbstractLet G be a simple algebraic group over an algebraically closed field with Lie algebra g. Then the orbits of nilpotent elements of g under the adjoint action of G have been classified. We describe a simple algorithm for finding a representative of a nilpotent orbit. We use this to compute lists of representatives of these orbits for the Lie algebras of exceptional type. Then we give two applications. The first one concerns settling a conjecture by Elashvili on the index of centralizers of nilpotent orbits, for the case where the Lie algebra is of exceptional type. The second deals with minimal dimensions of centralizers in centralizers.
