p-Adic and p-cotorsion completions of nilpotent groups

ADMISSIBLE NILPOTENT COADJOINT ORBITS OF p-ADIC REDUCTIVE LIE GROUPS

The orbit method conjectures a close relationship between the set of irreducible unitary representations of a Lie group G, and admissible coadjoint orbits in the dual of the Lie algebra. We define admissibility for nilpotent coadjoint orbits of p-adic reductive Lie groups, and compute the set of admissible orbits for a range of examples. We find that for unitary, symplectic, orthogonal, general...

p-adic Hurwitz groups

Herrlich showed that a Mumford curve of genus g > 1 over the p-adic complex field Cp has at most 48(g− 1), 24(g− 1), 30(g− 1) or 12(g− 1) automorphisms as p = 2, 3, 5 or p > 5. The Mumford curves attaining these bounds are uniformised by normal subgroups of finite index in certain p-adic triangle groups ∆p for p ≤ 5, or in a p-adic quadrangle group p for p > 5. The finite groups attaining these...

NILPOTENT p-LOCAL FINITE GROUPS

In this paper we provide characterizations of p-nilpotency for fusion systems and p-local finite groups that are inspired by known result for finite groups. In particular, we generalize criteria by Atiyah, Brunetti, Frobenius, Quillen, Stammbach and Tate.

Some Inequalities for Nilpotent Multipliers of Powerful p-Groups

SIMPLE p - ADIC GROUPS , II

0.1. For any finite group Γ, a “nonabelian Fourier transform matrix” was introduced in [L1]. This is a square matrix whose rows and columns are indexed by pairs formed by an element of Γ and an irreducible representation of the centralizer of that element (both defined up to conjugation). As shown in [L2], this matrix, which is unitary with square 1, enters (for suitable Γ) in the character for...
