Essential Dimension of Finite Groups in Prime Characteristic

چکیده
Let F be a eld of characteristic p > 0 and G be a smooth nite algebraic group over F . We compute the essential dimension edF (G; p) of G at p. That is, we show that edF (G; p) = { 1, if p divides |G|, and 0, otherwise.

Pseudo-reflection groups and essential dimension
We give a simple formula for the essential dimension of a finite pseudoreflection group at a prime p and determine the absolute essential dimension for most irreducible pseudo-reflection groups. We also study the “poor man’s essential dimension” of an arbitrary finite group, an intermediate notion between the absolute essential dimension and the essential dimension at a prime p.
متن کاملOn generalized reduced representations of restricted Lie superalgebras in prime characteristic
Let $mathbb{F}$ be an algebraically closed field of prime characteristic $p>2$ and $(g, [p])$ a finite-dimensional restricted Lie superalgebra over $mathbb{F}$. It is showed that anyfinite-dimensional indecomposable $g$-module is a module for a finite-dimensional quotient of the universal enveloping superalgebra of $g$. These quotient superalgebras are called the generalized reduced enveloping ...

Let $G$ be a finite group. The degree pattern of $G$ denoted by $D(G)$ is defined as follows: If $pi(G)={p_{1},p_{2},...,p_{k}}$ such that $p_{1}
متن کاملProfinite and pro-p completions of Poincaré duality groups of dimension 3
We establish some sufficient conditions for the profinite and prop completions of an abstract group G of type FPm (resp of finite cohomological dimension, of finite Euler characteristics) to be of type FPm over the field Fp for a fixed natural prime p (resp. of finite cohomological p-dimension, of finite Euler p-characteristics). We apply our methods for orientable Poincaré duality groups G of ...
متن کاملOn the essential dimension of cyclic p - groups
Let p be a prime number and r ≥ 1 an integer. We compute the essential dimension of Z/pZ over fields of characteristic not p, containing the p-th roots of unity (theorem 3.1). In particular, we have edQ(Z/8Z) = 4, a result which was conjectured by Buhler and Reichstein in 1995 (unpublished).
