Abstract We establish the inductive blockwise Alperin weight condition for simple groups of Lie type $\mathsf C$ and the bad prime $2$ . As a main step, we derive a labelling set for the irreducible $2$ -Brauer characters of the finite symplectic groups $\operatorname {Sp}_{2n}(q)$ (with odd q), together with the action of automorphisms. As a further important ingredient, we prove a Jordan decomposition for weights.

Groups Of Lie Type

Presentation in terms of generators and relations for the classical finite simple groups of Lie type have been given by Steinberg and Curtis [2,4]. These presentations are useful in proving characterzation theorems for these groups, as in the author's work on the projective symplectic groups [5]. However, in some cases, the application is not quite instantaneous, and an intermediate result is needed to provide a presentation more suitable for the situation in hand. In this paper we prove such a result, for the orthogonal simple groups over finite fields of odd characteristic. In a subsequent article we shall use this to give a characterization of these groups in terms of the structure of the centralizer of an involution.

Alperin Weight Conjecture

Let G be a finite group and ℓ be any prime dividing [Formula: see text]. The blockwise Alperin weight conjecture states that the number of the irreducible Brauer characters in an ℓ-block B of G equals the number of the G-conjugacy classes of ℓ-weights belonging to B. Recently, this conjecture has been reduced to the simple groups, which means that to prove the blockwise Alperin weight conjecture, it suffices to prove that all non-abelian simple groups satisfy the inductive blockwise Alperin weight condition. In this paper, we verify this inductive condition for the finite simple groups [Formula: see text] and non-defining characteristic, where q is a power of an odd prime.

Alperin Weight Conjecture

The blockwise Alperin weight conjecture assets that for any finite group G and any prime l, the number of the Brauer characters in an l-block B equals the number of the G-conjugacy classes of l-weights belonging to B. Recently, the inductive blockwise Alperin weight condition has been introduced such that the blockwise Alperin weight conjecture holds if all non-abelian simple groups satisfy these conditions. We will verify the inductive blockwise Alperin weight condition for the finite simple groups PSL(3, q) in this paper.

AbstractA subgroup H of a group G is said to be pronormal in G if H and {H^{g}} are conjugate in {\langle H,H^{g}\rangle} for every {g\in G}. In this paper, we determine the finite simple groups of type {E_{6}(q)} and {{}^{2}E_{6}(q)} in which all the subgroups of odd index are pronormal. Thus, we complete a classification of finite simple exceptional groups of Lie type in which all the subgroups of odd index are pronormal.

Abstract We prove that when q is a power of 2 every complex irreducible representation of $\textrm{Sp}\big (2n, \mathbb{F}_{q}\big )$ may be defined over the real numbers, that is, all Frobenius–Schur indicators are 1. We also obtain a generating function for the sum of the degrees of the unipotent characters of $\textrm{Sp}\big(2n, \mathbb{F}_{q}\big )$, or of $\textrm{SO}\big(2n+1,\mathbb{F}_{q}\big )$, for any prime power q.

New results on graph theoretical method of encryption will be presented. The general idea is to treat vertices of a graph as messages, and walks of a certain length as ecnryption tools. We will construct one-time pad algorithms with a certain resistance to attacks when the adversary knows plaintext and ciphertext. Special linguistic graphs of high girth whose vertices (messages) and walks (encoding tools) could be both naturally identified with vectors over the finite field, and with the so-called parallelotopic graphs, which turn out to be efficient tools for symmetric encryption. We will formulate criteria when parallelotopic graph (or the more general graph of tactical configuration) is a graph of absolutely optimal encryption scheme, producing asymptotic one-time pad algorithm. We will show how to convert one-time pads, which are related to geometries of rank 2 of simple groups of Lie type, to a real-life encryption scheme involving potentially infinite text and flexible passwords. We will discuss families of linguistic and parallelotopic graphs of increasing girth as the source for the generation of asymmetric cryptographic functions and related open key algorithms. We will construct new families of such graphs via group theoretical and geometrical technique. The software for symmetric and asymmetric ecnryption (prototype model of the package) is ready for demonstration.

Steinberg Character

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).
