Reductive algebraic groups

Computing in Unipotent and Reductive Algebraic Groups

The unipotent groups are an important class of algebraic groups. We show that techniques used to compute with finitely generated nilpotent groups carry over to unipotent groups. We concentrate particularly on the maximal unipotent subgroup of a split reductive group and show how this improves computation in the reductive group itself.

On a Class of Double Cosets in Reductive Algebraic Groups

We study a class of double coset spaces RA\G1 × G2/RC , where G1 and G2 are connected reductive algebraic groups, and RA and RC are certain spherical subgroups of G1×G2 obtained by “identifying” Levi factors of parabolic subgroups in G1 and G2. Such double cosets naturally appear in the symplectic leaf decompositions of Poisson homogeneous spaces of complex reductive groups with the Belavin–Dri...

Representations of Reductive Groups

This course consists of two parts. In the first we will study representations of reductive groups over local non-archimedian fields [ such as Qp and Fq((s))]. In this part I’ll closely follow the notes of the course of J.Bernstein. Moreover I’ll often copy big chanks from these notes. In the second the representations of reductive groups over 2-dimensional local fields [ such as Qp((s))]. In th...

Pseudo-reductive Groups

“In this remarkable book, David Easley and Jon Kleinberg bring all the tools of computer science, economics, and sociology to bear on one of the great scientific challenges of our time: understanding the structure, function, and dynamics of networks in society. Clearly written and covering an impressive range of topics, “Networks, Crowds, and Markets” is the ideal starting point for any student...
