Extensions between Simple Modules for Frobenius Kernels

Introduction Let G be a simply connected and connected semisimple group over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic p > 0. T ⊂ G is a maximal torus and R is the root system relative to T . X(T ) is the weight lattice. Let B ⊃ T be a Borel subgroup corresponding to the negative roots R− = R. Denote by Gr the r-th Frobenius kernel of G. The socle and radical structures of the cohomolog...

A Simple Classification of Finite Groups of Order p2q2

‎Suppose G is a group of order p^2q^2 where p>q are prime numbers and suppose P and Q are Sylow p-subgroups and Sylow q-subgroups of G, ‎respectively‎. ‎In this paper‎, ‎we show that up to isomorphism‎, ‎there are four groups of order p^2q^2 when Q and P are cyclic‎, ‎three groups when Q is a cyclic and P is an elementary ablian group‎, ‎p^2+3p/2+7 groups when Q is an elementary ablian group an...

Geometric Characterizations of Finite Chevalley Groups of Type B2

Finite Moufang generalized quadrangles were classified in 1974 as a corollary to the classification of finite groups with a split BN-pair of rank 2, by P. Fong and G. M. Seitz (1973), (1974). Later on, work of S. E. Payne and J. A. Thas culminated in an almost complete, elementary proof of that classification; see Finite Generalized Quadrangles, 1984. Using slightly more group theory, first W. ...

Small degree representations of finite Chevalley groups in defining characteristic

We determine for all simple simply connected reductive linear algebraic groups defined over a finite field all irreducible representations in their defining characteristic of degree below some bound. These also give the small degree projective representations in defining characteristic for the corresponding finite simple groups. For large rank l our bound is proportional to l3 and for rank 11 m...
