Let G be the group of rational points of a split connected reductive group over a nonarchimedean local field of residue characteristic p.LetI be a pro-p Iwahori subgroup of G and let R be a commutative quasi-Frobenius ring. If H = R[I\G/I] denotes the pro-p Iwahori- Hecke algebra of G over R we clarify the relation between the category of ......
A characterization is given for the factorizations of almost simple groups with a solvable factor. It turns out that there are only several infinite families of these non-trivial factorizations, and an almost simple group with such a factorization cannot have socle exceptional Lie type or orthogonal of minus type. The characterization is then ......
The Galois theory of di?erence equations has witnessed a major evolution in the last two decades. In the particular case of q-di?erence equations, authors have introduced several di?erent Galois theories. In this memoir we consider an arithmetic approach to the Galois theory of q-di?erence equations and we use it to establish an arithmetical ......
This book is devoted to group-theoretic aspects of topological dynamics such as studying groups using their actions on topological spaces, using group theory to study symbolic dynamics, and other connections between group theory and dynamical systems. One of the main applications of this approach to group theory is the study of asymptotic ......

A Friendly Introduction to Abstract Algebra offers a new approach to laying a foundation for abstract mathematics. Prior experience with proofs is not assumed, and the book takes time to build proof-writing skills in ways that will serve students through a lifetime of learning and creating mathematics. The author's pedagogical philosophy is that ......
In this article we propose a geometric description of Arthur packets for padic groups using vanishing cycles of perverse sheaves. Our approach is inspired by the 1992 book by Adams, Barbasch and Vogan on the Langlands classification of admissible representations of real groups and follows the direction indicated by Vogan in his 1993 paper on the ......
We study embeddings of PSL2(pa) into exceptional groups G(pb)forG = F4,E6,2E6,E7,andp aprimewitha,b positive integers. With a few possible exceptions, we prove that any almost simple group with socle PSL2(pa), that is maximal inside an almost simple exceptional group of Lie type F4, E6, 2E6 and E7, is the fixed points under the Frobenius map of a ......
We consider a rank one group G = A,Bacting cubically on a module V, this means [V,A,A,A] = 0 but [V,G,G,G]= 0. We have to distinguish whether the group A0 := CA([V,A]) ?CA(V/CV(A)) is trivial or not. We show that if A0 is trivial, G is a rank one group associated to a quadratic Jordan division algebra. If A0 is not trivial (which is always the ......
