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.

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.

Abstract In 1895 Wiman introduced the Riemann surface 𝒲 of genus 6 over the complex field ℂ defined by the equation X 6+Y 6+ℨ 6+(X 2+Y 2+ℨ 2)(X 4+Y 4+ℨ 4)−12X 2 Y 2 ℨ 2 = 0, and showed that its full automorphism group is isomorphic to the symmetric group S 5. We show that this holds also over every algebraically closed field 𝕂 of characteristic p ≥ 7. For p = 2, 3 the above polynomial is reducible over 𝕂, and for p = 5 the curve 𝒲 is rational and Aut(𝒲) ≅ PGL(2,𝕂). We also show that Wiman’s 𝔽192 -maximal sextic 𝒲 is not Galois covered by the Hermitian curve H19 over the finite field 𝔽192 .

AbstractThe conjugacy of Cartan subalgebras of a Lie algebra L over an algebraically closed field under the connected automorphism group G of L is inherited by those G-stable ideals B for which B/Ci is restrictable for some hypercenter Ci of B. Concequently, if L is a restrictable Lie algebra such that L/Ci restrictable for some hypercenter Ci of L, and if the Lie algebra of Aut L contains ad L, then the Cartan subalgebras of L are conjugate under G. (The techniques here apply in particular to Lie algebras of characteristic 0 and classical Lie algebras, showing how the conjugacy of Cartan subgroups of algebraic groups leads quickly in these cases to the conjugacy of Cartan subalgebras.)

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.

Working over an algebraically closed field of characteristic p > 3, we calculate the orbit closures in the Witt algebra W under the action of its automorphism group G. We also outline how the same techniques can be used to determine closures of orbits of all heights except p - 1 (in which case we only obtain a conditional statement) in the dual space W* under the induced action of G. As a corollary we prove that the algebra of invariants k[W*]G is trivial.

AbstractWe study the strong simple connectedness of finite-dimensional tame algebras over an algebraically closed field, for which the Auslander–Reiten quiver admits a separating family of almost cyclic coherent components. As the main application we describe all analytically rigid algebras in this class.

Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic p>0. Let K/k be a function field of one variable and L/K be an unramified separable abelian extension of degree pr over K. The galois automorphisms ε1, …, εpr of L/K are naturally extended to automorphisms η(ε1), … , η(εpr) of the jacobian variety JL of L/k. If we take a svstem of p-adic coordinates on JL, we get a representation {Mp(η(εv))} of the galois group G(L/K) of L/K over p-adic integers.

AbstractFor a Lie algebra $L$ over an algebraically closed field $F$ of nonzero characteristic, every finite dimensional $L$-module can be decomposed into a direct sum of submodules such that all composition factors of a summand have the same character. Using the concept of a character cluster, this result is generalised to fields which are not algebraically closed. Also, it is shown that if the soluble Lie algebra $L$ is in the saturated formation $\mathfrak{F}$ and if $V, W$ are irreducible $L$-modules with the same cluster and the $p$-operation vanishes on the centre of the $p$-envelope used, then $V, W$ are either both $\mathfrak{F}$-central or both $\mathfrak{F}$-eccentric. Clusters are used to generalise the construction of induced modules.

We give a classification of superattracting germs in dimension $1$ over a complete normed algebraically closed field $\mathbb{K}$ of positive characteristic up to conjugacy. In particular, we show that formal and analytic classifications coincide for these germs. We also give a higher-dimensional version of some of these results.
