Introduction. Let K be an algebraically closed field, G = SL(3, K) the group of 3 × 3 matrices over K of determinant 1. Let denote the monoid of all 3 × 3 matrices over K. If e is an idempotent in , thenare opposite parabolic subgroups of G in the usual sense [1], [28]. However the mapdoes not exhaust all pairs of opposite parabolic subgroups of G. Now consider the representation ϕ:G → SL(6, K) given by

Abstract Let G be a simple algebraic group over an algebraically closed field K of characteristic {p>0} . We consider connected reductive subgroups X of G that contain a given distinguished unipotent element u of G. A result of Testerman and Zalesski [D. Testerman and A. Zalesski, Irreducibility in algebraic groups and regular unipotent elements, Proc. Amer. Math. Soc. 141 2013, 1, 13–28] shows that if u is a regular unipotent element, then X cannot be contained in a proper parabolic subgroup of G. We generalize their result and show that if u has order p, then except for two known examples which occur in the case {(G,p)=(C_{2},2)} , the subgroup X cannot be contained in a proper parabolic subgroup of G. In the case where u has order {>p} , we also present further examples arising from indecomposable tilting modules with quasi-minuscule highest weight.

Letkbe any algebraically closed field, and denote byk((t)) the field of formal power series in one indeterminatetoverk. Letso thatKis the field of Puiseux expansions with coefficients ink(each element ofKis a formal power series intl/rfor some positive integerr). It is well-known thatKis algebraically closed if and only ifkis of characteristic zero [1, p. 61]. For examples relating to ramified extensions of fields with valuation [9, §6] it is useful to have a field analogous toKwhich is algebraically closed whenkhas non-zero characteristicp. In this paper, I prove that the setLof all formal power series of the form Σaitei(where (ei) is well-ordered,ei=mi|nprt,n∈ Ζ,mi∈ Ζ,ai∈k,ri∈ Ν) forms an algebraically closed field.

Nilpotent Elements

LetGbe a simple adjoint algebraic group over an algebraically closed fieldK. We are concerned to describe the conjugacy classes of unipotent elements ofG. Goperates on its Lie algebra g by means of the adjoint action and we may consider classes of nilpotent elements of g under this action. It has been shown by Springer (11) that there is a bijection between the unipotent elements ofGand the nilpotent elements ofgwhich preserves theG-action, provided that the characteristic ofKis either 0 or a ‘good prime’ forG. Thus we may concentrate on the problem of classifying the nilpotent elements of g under the adjointG-action.

Abstract We generalize the theory of the second invariant cohomology group $H^{2}_{\textrm{inv}}(G)$ for finite groups G, developed in [3, 4, 14], to the case of affine algebraic groups G, using the methods of [9, 10, 12]. In particular, we show that for connected affine algebraic groups G over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0, the map Θ from [14] is bijective (unlike for some finite groups, as shown in [14]). This allows us to compute $H^{2}_{\textrm{inv}}(G)$ in this case, and in particular show that this group is commutative (while for finite groups it can be noncommutative, as shown in [14]).

Let A, B, and X be n-square matrices over an algebraically closed field F of characteristic 0. Let [A, B] = AB — BA and set (A, B) = [A, [A, B]]. Recently several proofs (1; 3; 5) of the following result have appeared: if det (AB) ≠ 0 and (A,B) = 0 then A-1B-1AB - I is nilpotent. In (2) McCoy determined the general form of any X satisfying1.1in the case that A has a single elementary divisor corresponding to each eigenvalue, that is, A is non-derogatory. In Theorem 1 we determine the structure of any matrix X satisfying (1.1) and also give a formula for the dimension of the linear space of all such X in terms of the degrees of the elementary divisors of A.

Let Mn denote the space of all n-square matrices over an algebraically closed field F. For A, B ∊ Mn, letdefine the iterated commutators of A and B. Recently several research papers (1, 2, 4, and 5) have appeared on these commutators. In (1), Kato and Taussky have proved that for n = 2 the iterated commutators of A and B satisfy the linear relation

AbstractAbstract Let G be a linear algebraic group over an algebraically closed field 𝕜 acting rationally on a G-module V with its null-cone. Let δ(G, V) and σ(G, V) denote the minimal number d such that for every and , respectively, there exists a homogeneous invariant f of positive degree at most d such that f(v) ≠ 0. Then δ(G) and σ(G) denote the supremum of these numbers taken over all G-modules V. For positive characteristics, we show that δ(G) = ∞ for any subgroup G of GL2(𝕜) that contains an infinite unipotent group, and σ(G) is finite if and only if G is finite. In characteristic zero, δ(G) = 1 for any group G, and we show that if σ(G) is finite, then G0 is unipotent. Our results also lead to a more elementary proof that βsep(G) is finite if and only if G is finite.

AbstractLet k be an algebraically closed field, and let l be a prime number not equal to char(k). Let X be a locally fibrant simplicial sheaf on the big étale site for k, and let Y be a k scheme which is cohomologically proper. Then there is a Künneth-type isomorphismwhich is induced by an external cup-product pairing. Reductive algebraic groups G over k are cohomologically proper, by a result of Friedlander and Parshall. The resulting Hopf algebra structure on may be used together with the Lang isomorphism to give a new proof of the theorem of Friedlander-Mislin which avoids characteristic 0 theory. A vanishing criterion is established for the Friedlander-Quillen conjecture.

AbstractWe show that the modules for the Frobenius kernel of a reductive algebraic group over an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic $p$ induced from the $p$-regular blocks of its parabolic subgroups can be $\mathbb{Z}$-graded. In particular, we obtain that the modules induced from the simple modules of $p$-regular highest weights are rigid and determine their Loewy series, assuming the Lusztig conjecture on the irreducible characters for the reductive algebraic groups, which is now a theorem for large $p$. We say that a module is rigid if and only if it admits a unique filtration of minimal length with each subquotient semisimple, in which case the filtration is called the Loewy series.
