Fundamental Paper

In his fundamental paper (1) Chevalley showed how to associate with each complex simple Lie algebra L and each field K a group G = L(K) which is (in all but four exceptional cases) simple. If K is a finite field GF(q), G is a finite group of orderwhere l is the rank of L, m is the number of positive roots of L and d is a certain integer determined by L and K. The integers m1, m2,…,m1 are determined by L only and satisfy the condition

Let L be a finite-dimensional complex simple Lie algebra, Lℤ be the ℤ-span of a Chevalley basis of L and LR = R⊗ℤLℤ be a Chevalley algebra of type L over a commutative ring R. Let [Formula: see text] be the nilpotent subalgebra of LR spanned by the root vectors associated with positive roots.

Fundamental Paper

In his fundamental paper [1] J. L. Alperin introduced the idea of a weight in modular representation theory of finite groups G. Let p be a prime. A p-subgroup R is called a radical subgroup of G if R = Op(NG(R)). An irreducible character φ of NG(R) is called a weight character if φ is trivial on R and belongs to a p-block of defect zero of NG(R)/R. The G-conjugacy class of the pair (R, φ) is a weight of G. Let b be the p-block of NG(R) containing φ, and let B be p-block of G. A weight (R, φ) is a B-weight for the block B of G if B = bG, which means that B and b correspond under the Brauer homomorphism. Alperin's conjecture on weights asserts that the number l*(B) of B-weights of a p-block B of a finite group G equals the number l(B) of modular characters of B.

Let G be a finite group of order g, andbe an absolutely irreducible representation of degree fμ over a field of characteristic zero.

Our aim in this paper is to prove the general mod ℭ suspension theorem: Suppose that X and Y are CW-complexes,ℭ is a class offinite abelian groups, and that(i) πi(Y) ∈ℭfor all i < n,(ii) H*(X; Z) is finitely generated,(iii) Hi(X;Z) ∈ℭfor all i > k.Then the suspension homomorphismis a(mod ℭ) monomorphism for 2 ≦ r ≦ 2n – k – 2 (when r= 1, ker E is a finite group of order d, where Zd∈ ℭ and is a (mod ℭ) epimorphism for 2 ≦ r ≦ 2n – k – 2The proof is basically the same as the proof of the regular suspension theorem. It depends essentially on (mod ℭ) versions of the Serre exact sequence and of the Whitehead theorem.

A Finite Group

We introduce inversions for classical Weyl group elements and relate them, by counting, to the length function, root systems and Schubert cells in flag manifolds. Special inversions are those that only change signs in the Weyl groups of types Bn, Cnand Dn. Their counting is related to the (only) generator of the Weyl group that changes signs, to the corresponding roots, and to a special subvariety in the flag manifold fixed by a finite group.

In [6] we have constructed certain normal subgroups G7 of the elementary subgroup GR of the Chevalley group G(L, R) over R corresponding to a finite dimensional simple Lie algebra L over the complex field, where R is a commutative ring with identity. The method employed was to augment somewhat the generators of the elementary subgroup EI of G corresponding to an ideal I of the underlying Chevalley algebra LR;EI is thus the group generated by all xr(t) in G having the property that ter ⊂ I. In [6, § 5] we noted that in general EI actually had to be enlarged for a normal subgroup of GR to be obtained.

The present paper has been inspired by a theorem of Swan(5). The theorem can be described as follows. Let G be a finite group and let Γ be its integral group ring. We shall denote by Z an infinite cyclic additive group considered as a left Γ-module by defining gm = m for all g in G and m in Z. By a Tate resolution of Z is meant an exact sequencewhere Xn is a projective module for − ∞ < n < + ∞, and.

Abstract We introduce a generalized version of a q-Schur algebra (of parabolic type) for arbitrary Hecke algebras over extended Weyl groups. We describe how the decomposition matrix of a finite group with split BN-pair, with respect to a non-describing prime, can be partially described by the decomposition matrices of suitably chosen q-Schur algebras. We show that the investigated structures occur naturally in finite groups of Lie type.

Given a maximal subalgebra M of a finite-dimensional Lie algebra L, a θ-pair for M is a pair (A, B) of subalgebras such that A ≰ M, B is an ideal of L contained in A ∩ M, and A/B includes properly no nonzero ideal of L/B. This is analogous to the concept of θ-pairs associated to maximal subgroups of a finite group, which has been studied by a number of authors. A θ-pair (A, B) for M is said to be maximal if M has no θ-pair (C, D) such that A < C. In this paper, we obtain some properties of maximal θ-pairs and use them to give some characterizations of solvable, supersolvable and nilpotent Lie algebras.
