چکیده
We prove a general dichotomy theorem for groups of finite Morley rank with solvable local subgroups and of Prüfer p-rank at least 2, leading either to some p-strong embedding, or to the Prüfer p-rank being exactly 2. 2000 Mathematics Subject Classification: Primary 20F11; Secondary 20G07, 03C60.

Splitting in solvable groups of finite Morley rank
We exhibit counterexamples to a Conjecture of Nesin, since we build a connected solvable group with finite center and of finite Morley rank in which no normal nilpotent subgroup has a nilpotent complement. The main result says that each centerless connected solvable group G of finite Morley has a normal nilpotent subgroup U and an abelian subgroup T such that G = U o T , if and only if, for any...
متن کاملNon-solvable Groups of Morley Rank 3
Groups of finite Morley rank have been studied by several model theorists since the early 1970s. Cherlin conjectured (see [Chl]) that infinite simple groups of finite Morley rank are algebraic groups over an algebraically closed field. This conjecture seems to be one of the most difficult problems in applied model theory. Important contributions were made by Zil’ber [Zi] and Thomas [Thl]. An En...
متن کاملStructure of Borel subgroups in simple groups of finite Morley rank
We study the structure of subgroups of minimal connected simple groups of finite Morley rank. We first establish a Jordan decomposition for a large family of minimal connected simple groups including those with a non-trivial Weyl group. We then show that definable, connected, solvable subgroups of such a simple group are the semi-direct product of their unipotent part extended by a maximal toru...
متن کاملLinear representations of soluble groups of finite Morley rank
Sufficient conditions are given for groups of finite Morley rank having non-trivial torsion-free nilpotent normal subgroups to have linear representations with small kernels. In particular, centreless connected soluble groups of finite Morley rank with torsion-free Fitting subgroups have faithful linear representations. On the way, using a notion of definable weight space, we prove that certain...
متن کاملOn Weyl groups in minimal simple groups of finite Morley rank
We prove that generous non-nilpotent Borel subgroups of connected minimal simple groups of finite Morley rank are self-normalizing. We use this to introduce a uniform approach to the analysis of connected minimal simple groups of finite Morley rank through a case division incorporating four mutually exclusive classes of groups. We use these to analyze Carter subgroups and Weyl groups in connect...
