Simple groups of finite Morley
The Algebraicity Conjecture treats model-theoretic foundations of algebraic group theory. It states that any simple group of finite Morley rank is an algebraic group over an algebraically closed field. In the mid-1990s a view was consolidated that this project falls into four cases of different flavour: even type, mixed type, odd type, and degenerate type. This book contains a proof of the conj...
متن کاملDefinably Linear Groups of Finite Morley Rank
Introduction. Zilber’s original trichotomy conjecture proposed an explicit classification of all one-dimensional objects arising in model theory. At one point, classifying the simple groups of finite Morley rank was viewed as a subproblem whose affirmative answer would justify this conjecture. Zilber’s conjecture was eventually refuted by Hrushovski [9], and the classification of simple groups ...
متن کاملNilpotent Groups of Finite Morley Rank
Now assume |G : H| is infinite and that H is definable in G (but H need no longer be infinite or G-normal). Let Z = Z◦(G), and note that (a) implies that Z is infinite. If |Z : H ∩Z| is infinite, then |HZ : H| is infinite as well. In this case we are done since H ≤ HZ ≤ NG(H). Otherwise, |Z : H ∩Z| is finite, so the connectedness of Z implies that Z ≤ H. We can now proceed by induction on the r...
متن کاملPrimitive Permutation Groups of Finite Morley Rank
We prove a version of the O'Nan-Scott Theorem for detinably primitive permutation groups of finite Morley rank. This yields questions about structures of finite Morley rank of the form (F, + , . , / / ) where (F, +,.) is an algebraically closed field and H is a central extension of a simple group with /Y=sGL(rt, F). We obtain partial results on such groups H, and show for example that if char(/...
متن کاملPermutation groups of Finite Morley rank
Introduction Groups of finite Morley rank made their first appearance in model theory as binding groups, which are the key ingredient in Zilber's ladder theorem and in Poizat's explanation of the Picard-Vessiot theory. These are not just groups, but in fact permutation groups acting on important definable sets. When they are finite, they are connected with the model theoretic notion of algebrai...
