AbstractGiven a group G, we may ask whether it is the commutator subgroup of some group G. For example, every abelian group G is the commutator subgroup of a semi-direct product of G x G by a cyclic group of order 2. On the other hand, no symmetric group Sn(n>2) is the commutator subgroup of any group G. In this paper we examine the classical linear groups over finite fields K of characteristic not equal to 2, and determine which can be commutator subgroups of other groups. In particular, we settle the question for all normal subgroups of the general linear groups GLn(K), the unitary groups Un(K) (n≠4), and the orthogonal groups On(K) (n≧7).

Abstract We determine the smallest irreducible Brauer characters for finite quasi-simple orthogonal type groups in non-defining characteristic. Under some restrictions on the characteristic we also prove a gap result showing that the next larger irreducible Brauer characters have a degree roughly the square of those of the smallest non-trivial characters.

Abstract Building upon work of Epstein, May and Drury, we define and investigate the mod p Steenrod operations on the de Rham cohomology of smooth algebraic stacks over a field of characteristic $p>0$ . We then compute the action of the operations on the de Rham cohomology of classifying stacks for finite groups, connected reductive groups for which p is not a torsion prime and (special) orthogonal groups when $p=2$ .

Abstract We apply differential operators to modular forms on orthogonal groups O ⁢ ( 2 , ℓ ) {\mathrm{O}(2,\ell)} to construct infinite families of modular forms on special cycles. These operators generalize the quasi-pullback. The subspaces of theta lifts are preserved; in particular, the higher pullbacks of the lift of a (lattice-index) Jacobi form ϕ are theta lifts of partial development coefficients of ϕ. For certain lattices of signature ( 2 , 2 ) {(2,2)} and ( 2 , 3 ) {(2,3)} , for which there are interpretations as Hilbert–Siegel modular forms, we observe that the higher pullbacks coincide with differential operators introduced by Cohen and Ibukiyama.

AbstractWe determine all the normal subgroups of the group of Cr diffeomorphisms of ℝn, 1≤r≤∞, except when r=n+1 or n=4, and also of the group of homeomorphisms of ℝn ( r=0). We also study the group A0 of diffeomorphisms of an open manifold M that are isotopic to the identity. If M is the interior of a compact manifold with non-empty boundary, then the quotient of A0 by the normal subgroup of diffeomorphisms that coincide with the identity near to a given end e of M is simple.

Recent Theorem

We prove that a polygonal product of polycyclic by finite groups amalgamating normal subgroups, with trivial mutual intersections, is cyclic subgroup separable. Because of a recent example (stated below) of the author this substantial improvement on a recent theorem of Kim is essentially best possible.
