In this paper we classify finite groups G with a faithful, quasiprimitive (see Notation), unimodular representation X with character χ of degree six over the complex number field. There are three gaps in the proof which are filled in by [16; 17]. These gaps concern existence and uniqueness of simple, projective, complex linear groups of order 604800, |LF(3, 4)|, and |PSL4(3)|. By [19], X is a tensor product of a 2-dimensional and a 3-dimensional group, or a subgroup thereof, or X corresponds to a projective representation of a simple group, possibly extended by some automorphisms. The tensor product case is discussed in section 10. Otherwise, we assume that G/Z(G) is simple. We discuss which automorphisms of G/Z(G) extend the representation X (that is, lift to the central extension G and fix the character corresponding to X) just after we find X(G).

Let G be a finite subgroup of GLn(C) acting naturally on an affine space Cn of dimension n over the complex number field C and denote by Cn/G the quotient variety of Cn under this action of G. The purpose of this paper is to determine G completely such that Cn/G is a complete intersection (abbrev. CI.) i.e. its coordinate ring is a C.I. when n > 10. Our main result is (5.1). Since the subgroup N generated by all pseudo-reflections in G is a normal subgroup of G and Cn/G is obtained as the quotient variety of without loss of generality, we may assume that G is a subgroup of SLn(C) (cf. [6, 16, 24, 25]).

1. Introduction. There are five well-known, two-parameter families of simple finite groups: the unimodular projective group, the symplectic group,1 the unitary group,2 and the first and second orthogonal groups, each group acting on a vector space of a finite number of elements (2; 3).

AbstractBy considering the Bredon analogue of complete cohomology of a group, we show that every group in the class$\cll\clh^{\mathfrak F}{\mathfrak F}$of type Bredon-FP∞admits a finite dimensional model for$E_{\frak F}G$.We also show that abelian-by-infinite cyclic groups admit a 3-dimensional model for the classifying space for the family of virtually nilpotent subgroups. This allows us to prove that for$\mathfrak {F}$, the class of virtually cyclic groups, the class of$\cll\clh^{\mathfrak F}{\mathfrak F}$-groups contains all locally virtually soluble groups and all linear groups over${\mathbb{C}}$of integral characteristic.

The aim of this paper is two-fold: first, to extend the results of (4) to the exceptional finite Lie groups recently discovered by Chevalley (1), and, secondly, to give a construction which works simultaneously for the groups An, Bn, Cn, Dn, En, F4 and G2 (in the usual Lie group notation), and which depends only on intrinsic structural properties of these groups.

The commutator length “” of a group is the least natural number such that every element of the derived subgroup of is a product of commutators. We give an upper bound for when is a -generator nilpotent-by-abelian-by-finite group. Then, we give an upper bound for the commutator length of a soluble-by-finite linear group over that depends only on and the degree of linearity. For such a group , we prove that is less than , where is the minimum number of generators of (upper) triangular subgroup of and is a quadratic polynomial in . Finally we show that if is a soluble-by-finite group of Prüffer rank then , where is a quadratic polynomial in .

AbstractWe extend a result of Noritzsch, which describes the orbit sizes in the action of a Frobenius group G on a finite vector space V under certain conditions, to a more general class of finite solvable groups G. This result has applications in computing irreducible character degrees of finite groups. Another application, proved here, is a result concerning the structure of certain groups with few complex irreducible character degrees.

AbstractWe study special Lagrangian fibrations of SU(3)-manifolds, not necessarily torsion-free. In the case where the fiber is a unimodular Lie group G, we decompose such SU(3)-structures into triples of solder 1-forms, connection 1-forms and equivariant 3 × 3 positive-definite symmetric matrix-valued functions on principal G-bundles over 3-manifolds. As applications, we describe regular parts of G2-manifolds that admit Lagrangian-type 3-dimensional group actions by constrained dynamical systems on the spaces of the triples in the cases of G = T3 and SO(3).
