Weakly Closed Unipotent Subgroups in Chevalley Groups
The aim of this note is to classify all weakly closed unipotent subgroups in the split Chevalley groups. In an application we show under some mild assumptions on the characteristic that 2 dimX + dim cg(X) < dim g for X a non-trivial unipotent subgroup of the connected simple algebraic group G. This shows the failure of the analogue of the so called “2F-condition” for finite groups for the adjoi...
متن کاملCharacter Sheaves and Characters of Unipotent Groups over Finite Fields
Let G0 be a connected unipotent group over a finite field Fq, and let G = G0 ⊗Fq Fq, equipped with the Frobenius endomorphism Frq : G −→ G. For every character sheaf M on G such that Frq M ∼= M , we prove that M comes from an irreducible perverse sheaf M0 on G0 such that M0 is pure of weight 0 (as an `-adic complex) and for each integer n ≥ 1 the “trace of Frobenius” function tM0⊗FqFqn on G0(Fq...
متن کاملTHE SCHUR INDICES OF THE CUSPIDAL UNIPOTENT CHARACTERS OF THE FINITE CHEVALLEY GROUPS E7(q)
We show that the two cuspidal unipotent characters of a finite Chevalley group E7(q) have Schur index 2, provided that q is an even power of a (sufficiently large) prime number p such that p ≡ 1 mod 4. The proof uses a refinement of Kawanaka’s generalized Gelfand–Graev representations and some explicit computations with the CHEVIE computer algebra system.
متن کاملCharacter Values at Regular Elements
There has been a good deal of work in the last decade or so on computing upper bounds of irreducible character values for finite simple groups [G1, G2, GM, LS2, LP, MS-P, R]. Some of this work concerns permutation groups, some groups of Lie type. Some is aimed at worst-case behavior, some at the character values of typical or at least fairly well-behaved elements. Various applications have been...
متن کاملWeight Elements of Chevalley Groups
The paper is devoted to a detailed study of some remarkable semisimple elements of (extended) Chevalley groups that are diagonalizable over the ground field — the weight elements. These are the conjugates of certain semisimple elements hω(ε) of extended Chevalley groupsG = G(Φ, K), where ω is a weight of the dual root system Φ∨ and ε ∈ K∗. In the adjoint case the hω(ε)’s were defined by Chevall...
