We prove a theorem that describes all possible tensor-valued natural operations in the presence of a linear connection and an orientation in terms of certain linear representations of the special linear group. As an application of this result, we prove a characterization of the torsion and curvature operators as the only natural operators that satisfy the Bianchi identities.

AbstractIn this paper we present a characterization of PSL(2,7) by a condition different from that given in our previous paper.

This paper is devoted to the complete calculation of the additive structure of the 2-torsion of the integral cohomology of the infinite special linear group SL(ℤ) over the ring of integers ℤ. This enables us to determine the best upper bound for the order of the Chern classes of all integral and rational representations of discrete groups.

Let [Formula: see text] be a group and [Formula: see text]. The 2-tuple [Formula: see text] is said to be an [Formula: see text]-Engel pair, [Formula: see text], if [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]. Let SL[Formula: see text] be the special linear group of degree [Formula: see text] over the field [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we show that given any field [Formula: see text], there is a field extension [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] with [Formula: see text] such that SL[Formula: see text] has an [Formula: see text]-Engel pair for some integer [Formula: see text]. We will also show that SL[Formula: see text] has a [Formula: see text]-Engel pair if [Formula: see text] is a field of characteristic [Formula: see text].

AbstractWe extend to arbitrary rings a definition of the octonion special linear group due to Baez. At the infinitesimal level, we get a Lie ring, which we describe over some large classes of rings, including all associative rings and all algebras over a field. As a corollary, we compute all the groups Baez defined.
