AbstractLetGbe the simple algebraic group Sp(2,2), to be defined over ℚ. It is a non-quasi-split, ℚ-rank-two inner form of the split symplectic group Sp8of rank four. The cohomology of the space of automorphic forms onGhas a natural subspace, which is spanned by classes represented by residues and derivatives of cuspidal Eisenstein series. It is called Eisenstein cohomology. In this paper we give a detailed description of the Eisenstein cohomologyHqEis(G,E) ofGin the case of regular coefficientsE. It is spanned only by holomorphic Eisenstein series. For non-regular coefficientsEwe really have to detect the poles of our Eisenstein series. SinceGis not quasi-split, we are out of the scope of the so-called ‘Langlands–Shahidi method’ (cf. F. Shahidi,On certainL-functions, Amer. J. Math.103(1981), 297–355; F. Shahidi,On the Ramanujan conjecture and finiteness of poles for certainL-functions, Ann. of Math. (2)127(1988), 547–584). We apply recent results of Grbac in order to find the double poles of Eisenstein series attached to the minimal parabolicP0ofG. Having collected this information, we determine the square-integrable Eisenstein cohomology supported byP0with respect to arbitrary coefficients and prove a vanishing result. This will exemplify a general theorem we prove in this paper on the distribution of maximally residual Eisenstein cohomology classes.

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).

Let $G$ be a simple algebraic group. A closed subgroup $H$ of $G$ is said to be spherical if it has a dense orbit on the flag variety $G/B$ of $G$. Reductive spherical subgroups of simple Lie groups were classified by Krämer in 1979. In 1997, Brundan showed that each example from Krämer’s list also gives rise to a spherical subgroup in the corresponding simple algebraic group in any positive characteristic. Nevertheless, up to now there has been no classification of all such instances in positive characteristic. The goal of this paper is to complete this classification. It turns out that there is only one additional instance (up to isogeny) in characteristic 2 which has no counterpart in Krämer’s classification. As one of our key tools, we prove a general deformation result for subgroup schemes that allows us to deduce the sphericality of subgroups in positive characteristic from the same property for subgroups in characteristic zero.

Residue Characteristic

Given a locally finite leafless tree $T$, various algebraic groups over local fields might appear as closed subgroups of $\operatorname{Aut}(T)$. We show that the set of closed cocompact subgroups of $\operatorname{Aut}(T)$ that are isomorphic to a quasi-split simple algebraic group is a closed subset of the Chabauty space of $\operatorname{Aut}(T)$. This is done via a study of the integral Bruhat–Tits model of $\operatorname{SL}_{2}$ and $\operatorname{SU}_{3}^{L/K}$, that we carry on over arbitrary local fields, without any restriction on the (residue) characteristic. In particular, we show that in residue characteristic $2$, the Tits index of simple algebraic subgroups of $\operatorname{Aut}(T)$ is not always preserved under Chabauty limits.

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.

AbstractIn this paper the authors produce a projective indecomposable module for the Frobenius kernel of a simple algebraic group in characteristic p that is not the restriction of an indecomposable tilting module. This yields a counterexample to Donkin’s longstanding Tilting Module Conjecture. The authors also produce a Weyl module that does not admit a p-Weyl filtration. This answers an old question of Jantzen, and also provides a counterexample to the {(p,r)}-Filtration Conjecture.

Shalika [6] proved the existence of germs (associated with a connected semi-simple algebraic group and a maximal torus over a non-archimedean local field), established many of their properties, and conjectured that the germ associated to the trivial unipotent class in GL(n) should be a constant. R. Howe and Harish-Chandra proved that it is a constant and J. Rogawski [5] proved that it had the value predicted previously by J. Shalika.

The maximal finite abelian subgroups, up to conjugation, of the simple algebraic group of type E8 over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0 are computed. This is equivalent to the determination of the fine gradings on the simple Lie algebra of type E8 with trivial neutral homogeneous component. The Brauer invariant of the irreducible modules for graded semisimple Lie algebras plays a key role.
