Let D be an F-central non-commutative division ring. Here, it is proved that if GL n(D) contains a non-abelian soluble maximal subgroup, then n = 1, [D : F] < ∞, and D is cyclic of degree p, a prime. Furthermore, a classification of soluble maximal subgroups of GL n(F) for an algebraically closed or real closed field F is also presented. We then determine all soluble maximal subgroups of GL 2(F) for fields F with Char F ≠ 2.

Algebraically Closed Fields

In this paper, we prove that the rings of quaternions and of octonions over an arbitrary real closed field are algebraically closed in the sense of Eilenberg and Niven. As a consequence, we infer that some reasonable algebraic closure conditions, including the one of Eilenberg and Niven, are equivalent on the class of centrally finite alternative division rings. Furthermore, we classify centrally finite alternative division rings satisfying such equivalent algebraic closure conditions: up to isomorphism, they are either the algebraically closed fields or the rings of quaternions over real closed fields or the rings of octonions over real closed fields.

Nilpotent Maximal Subgroup

Let D be a division ring and N be a subnormal subgroup of D*. In this paper we prove that if M is a nilpotent maximal subgroup of N, then M′ is abelian. If, furthermore every element of M is algebraic over Z(D) and M′ ⊈ F* or M/Z(M) or M′ is finitely generated, then M is abelian. The second main result of this paper concerns the subgroups of matrix groups; assume D is a noncommutative division ring, n is a natural number, N is a subnormal subgroup of GLn(D), and M is a maximal subgroup of N. We show that if M is locally finite over Z(D)*, then M is either absolutely irreducible or abelian.

Let D be a division ring with centre F. Assume that M is a maximal subgroup of GLn(D) (n≥1) such that Z(M) is algebraic over F. Group identities on M and polynomial identities on the F-linear hull F[M] are investigated. It is shown that if F[M] is a PI-algebra, then [D:F]<∞. When D is non-commutative and F is infinite, it is also proved that if M satisfies a group identity and F[M] is algebraic over F, then we have either M=K* where K is a field and [D:F]<∞, or M is absolutely irreducible. For a finite dimensional division algebra D, assume that N is a subnormal subgroup of GLn(D) and M is a maximal subgroup of N. If M satisfies a group identity, it is shown that M is abelian-by-finite.

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.

Small Index

In finite groups maximal subgroups play a very important role. Results in the literature show that if the maximal subgroup has a very small index in the whole group then it influences the structure of the group itself. In this paper we study the case when the index of the maximal subgroups of the groups have a special type of relation with the Fitting subgroup of the group.

AbstractLetRbe a real closed field, letX⊂Rnbe an irreducible real algebraic set and letZbe an algebraic subset ofXof codimension ≥ 2. Dubois and Efroymson proved the existence of an irreducible algebraic subset ofXof codimension 1 containingZ. We improve this dimension theorem as follows. Indicate by μ the minimum integer such that the ideal of polynomials inR[x1, … ,xn] vanishing onZcan be generated by polynomials of degree ≤ μ. We prove the following two results: (1) There exists a polynomialP∈R[x1, … ,xn] of degree≤ μ+1 such thatX∩P–1(0) is an irreducible algebraic subset ofXof codimension 1 containingZ. (2) LetFbe a polynomial inR[x1, … ,xn] of degreedvanishing onZ. Suppose there exists a nonsingular pointxofXsuch thatF(x) = 0 and the differential atxof the restriction ofFtoXis nonzero. Then there exists a polynomialG∈R[x1, … ,xn] of degree ≤ max﹛d, μ + 1﹜ such that, for eacht∈ (–1, 1) \ ﹛0﹜, the set ﹛x∈X|F(x) +tG(x) = 0﹜ is an irreducible algebraic subset ofXof codimension 1 containingZ. Result (1) and a slightly different version of result (2) are valid over any algebraically closed field also.

Algebraically Closed Fields

AbstractThe classification of the nilpotent orbits in the Lie algebra of a reductive algebraic group (over an algebraically closed field) is given in all the cases where it was not previously known (E7 and E8 in bad characteristic, F4 in characteristic 3). The paper exploits the tight relation with the corresponding situation over a finite field. A computer is used to study this case for suitable choices of the finite field.

In this paper, we show that the theory of ordered differential fields has a model completion. We also show that any real differential field, finitely generated over the rational numbers, is isomorphic to some field of real meromorphic functions. In the last section of this paper, we combine these two results and discuss the problem of deciding if a system of differential equations has real analytic solutions. The author wishes to thank G. Stengle for some stimulating and helpful conversations and for drawing our attention to fields of real meromorphic functions.§ 1. Real and ordered fields. A real field is a field in which −1 is not a sum of squares. An ordered field is a field F together with a binary relation < which totally orders F and satisfies the two properties: (1) If 0 < x and 0 < y then 0 < xy. (2) If x < y then, for all z in F, x + z < y + z. An element x of an ordered field is positive if x > 0. One can see that the square of any element is positive and that the sum of positive elements is positive. Since −1 is not positive, an ordered field is a real field. Conversely, given a real field F, it is known that one can define an ordering (not necessarily uniquely) on F [2, p. 274]. An ordered field F is a real closed field if: (1) every positive element is a square, and (2) every polynomial of odd degree with coefficients in F has a root in F. For example, the real numbers form a real closed field. Every ordered field can be embedded in a real closed field. It is also known that, in a real closed field K, polynomials satisfy the intermediate value property, i.e. if f(x) ∈ K[x] and a, b ∈ K, a < b, and f(a)f(b) < 0 then there is a c in K such that f(c) = 0.
