Normalizers of subsystem subgroups in finite groups of Lie type

Finite groups of Lie type form the greater part of known finite simple groups. An important class of subgroups of finite groups of Lie type are so-called reductive subgroups of maximal rank. These arise naturally as Levi factors of parabolic groups and as centralizers of semisimple elements, and also as subgroups with maximal tori. Moreover, reductive groups of maximal rank play an important part in inductive studies of subgroup structure of finite groups of Lie type. Yet a number of vital questions dealing in the internal structure of such subgroups are still not settled. In particular, we know which quasisimple groups may appear as central multipliers in the semisimple part of any reductive group of maximal rank, but we do not know how normalizers of those quasisimple groups are structured. The present paper is devoted to tackling this problem.

A ‘tree’ for generation and identification of the colour symmetry point groups

A flow chart (inverted ‘tree’) for generating and identifying the 58 magnetic and 18 polychromatic point groups using a classification for the 32 generating crystallographic point groups is suggested. The idea of colour generator is explored for generating the colour symmetry point groups. The advantages in presenting the identification of colour groups through a tree are discussed.     

The affine Plateau problem

In this paper, we study a second order variational problem for locally convex hypersurfaces, which is the affine invariant analogue of the classical Plateau problem for minimal surfaces. We prove existence, regularity and uniqueness results for hypersurfaces maximizing affine area under appropriate boundary conditions.

     

On measure‐valued solutions to a two‐dimensional gravity‐driven avalanche flow model

This paper concerns measure‐valued solutions for the two‐dimensional granular avalanche flow model introduced by Savage and Hutter. The system is similar to the isentropic compressible Euler equations, except for a Coulomb–Mohr friction law in the source term. We will partially follow the study of measure‐valued solutions given by DiPerna and Majda. However, due to the multi‐valued nature of the friction law, new more sensitive measures must be introduced. The main idea is to consider the class of x‐dependent maximal monotone graphs of non‐single‐valued operators and their relation with 1‐Lipschitz, Carathéodory functions. This relation allows to introduce generalized Young measures for x‐dependent maximal monotone graph. Copyright © 2005 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Estimation of the order of a group generated by a twisted subset

We prove that a group generated by a twisted subset is finite and its order is bounded by some function depending only on the order of the twisted subset.     

Appendix: On parahoric subgroups

We give the proofs of some simple facts on parahoric subgroups and on Iwahori Weyl groups used in [T. Haines, The base change fundamental lemma for central elements in parahoric Hecke algebras, preprint, 2008; G. Pappas, M. Rapoport, Twisted loop groups and their affine flag varieties, Adv. Math. 219 (2008) 118–198; M. Rapoport, A guide to the reduction modulo p of Shimura varieties, Astérisque 298 (2005) 271–318].     

Iterative convergence theorems for maximal monotone operators and relatively nonexpansive mappings

In this paper, some iterative schemes for approximating the common element of the set of zero points of maximal monotone operators and the set of fixed points of relatively nonexpansive mappings in a real uniformly smooth and uniformly convex Banach space are proposed. Some strong convergence theorems are obtained, to extend the previous work.     

Geodesic ideal triangulations exist virtually

It is shown that every non-compact hyperbolic manifold of finite volume has a finite cover admitting a geodesic ideal triangulation. Also, every hyperbolic manifold of finite volume with non-empty, totally geodesic boundary has a finite regular cover which has a geodesic partially truncated triangulation. The proofs use an extension of a result due to Long and Niblo concerning the separability of peripheral subgroups.
