Finiteness of orbit structure for real flag manifolds

Let G be a reductive real Lie group, an involutive automorphism of G, and L=G the fixed point set of . It is shown that G has only finitely many L-conjugacy classes of parabolic subgroups, so if P is a parabolic subgroup of G then there are only finitely many L-orbits on the real flag manifold G/P. This is done by showing that G has only finitely many L-conjugacy classes of -stable Cartan subgroups. These results extend known facts for the case where G is a complex group and L is a real form of G.Research partially supported by NSF Grant GP-16651.     

Pairs of Semisimple Lie Algebras and their Maximal Reductive Subalgebras

Let \(\mathfrak g\) be a semisimple Lie algebra over a field \(\mathbb K\), \(\text{char}\left( \mathbb{K} \right)=0\), and \(\mathfrak g_1\) a subalgebra reductive in \(\mathfrak g\). Suppose that the restriction of the Killing form B of \(\mathfrak g\) to \(\mathfrak g_1 \times \mathfrak g_1\) is nondegenerate. Consider the following statements: ( 1) For any Cartan subalgebra \(\mathfrak h_1\) of \(\mathfrak g_1\) there is a unique Cartan subalgebra \(\mathfrak h\) of \(\mathfrak g\) containing \(\mathfrak h_1\); ( 2) \(\mathfrak g_1\) is self-normalizing in \(\mathfrak g\); ( 3) The B-orthogonal \(\mathfrak p\) of \(\mathfrak g_1\) in \(\mathfrak g\) is simple as a \(\mathfrak g_1\)-module for the adjoint representation. We give some answers to this natural question: For which pairs \((\mathfrak g,\mathfrak g_1)\) do ( 1), ( 2) or ( 3) hold? We also study how \(\mathfrak p\) in general decomposes as a \(\mathfrak g_1\)-module, and when \(\mathfrak g_1\) is a maximal subalgebra of \(\mathfrak g\). In particular suppose \((\mathfrak g,\sigma )\) is a pair with \(\mathfrak g\) as above and σ its automorphism of order m. Assume that \(\mathbb K\) contains a primitive m-th root of unity. Define \(\mathfrak g_1:=\mathfrak g^{\sigma}\), the fixed point algebra for σ. We prove the following generalization of a well known result for symmetric Lie algebras, i.e., for m=2: (a) \((\mathfrak g,\mathfrak g_1)\) satisfies ( 1); (b) For m prime, \((\mathfrak g,\mathfrak g_1)\) satisfies ( 2).

On Hall Normally Embedded Subgroups of Finite Groups

A subgroup H of a finite group G is called Hall normally embedded in G if H is a Hall subgroup of the normal closure H ^G . Groups which contain a Hall normally embedded subgroup of order d for every factor d of | G | are characterized. Such groups are supersolvable with a cyclic nilpotent residual of square-free order.

Sub-cover-avoidance Properties and the Structure of Finite Groups

A subgroup H of a group G is said to have the sub-cover-avoidance property in G ffthereis a chief series 1 = G0 ≤ G1 ≤…≤ Gn - G, such that Gi-1（H ∩ Gi） G for every i = 1,2,... ,l. In this paper, we give some characteristic conditions for a group to be solvable under the assumptions that some subgroups of a group satisfy the sub-cover-avoidance property.     

Orbits and Invariants of Third-Order Cubic Matrices with Symmetric Fibers

In the note, for an action which is the tensor product of the tautological action of the unimodular group of three-dimensional space and the second symmetric power of the tautological action of the unimodular group of three-dimensional space, the orbits are classified and the generators of the algebra of invariants are described.     

On Two Theorems of Finite Solvable Groups

For a finite group G, let T（G） denote a set of primes such that a prime p belongs to T（G） if and only if p is a divisor of the index of some maximal subgroup of G. It is proved that if G satisfies any one of the following conditions： （1） G has a p-complement for each p∈T（G）; （2）│T（G）│= 2： （3） the normalizer of a Sylow p-subgroup of G has prime power index for each odd prime p∈T（G）; then G either is solvable or G/Sol（G）≌PSL（2, 7） where Sol（G） is the largest solvable normal subgroup of G.     

Schur–Weyl Theory for C*‐algebras

To each irreducible infinite dimensional representation $(\pi ,\mathcal {H})$ of a C*‐algebra $\mathcal {A}$, we associate a collection of irreducible norm‐continuous unitary representations $\pi _{\lambda }^\mathcal {A}$ of its unitary group ${\rm U}(\mathcal {A})$, whose equivalence classes are parameterized by highest weights in the same way as the irreducible bounded unitary representations of the group ${\rm U}_\infty (\mathcal {H}) = {\rm U}(\mathcal {H}) \cap (\mathbf {1} + K(\mathcal {H}))$ are. These are precisely the representations arising in the decomposition of the tensor products $\mathcal {H}^{\otimes n} \otimes (\mathcal {H}^*)^{\otimes m}$ under ${\rm U}(\mathcal {A})$. We show that these representations can be realized by sections of holomorphic line bundles over homogeneous Kähler manifolds on which ${\rm U}(\mathcal {A})$ acts transitively and that the corresponding norm‐closed momentum sets $I_{\pi _\lambda ^\mathcal {A}}^{\bf n} \subseteq {\mathfrak u}(\mathcal {A})^{\prime }$ distinguish inequivalent representations of this type.     

On the Dimensions of Commutative Subalgebras and Subgroups of Nilpotent Algebras and Lie Groups of Class 2

We obtain the functions that bound the dimensions of finite dimensional nilpotent associative or Lie algebras of class 2 over an algebraically closed field in terms of the dimensions of their commutative subalgebras. As a result, we also compute a similar function for complex nilpotent Lie groups of class 2.     

Local Subgroups and Group Algebras of Finite p-Solvable Groups

Let p be a prime, k an algebraically closed field ofcharacteristic p, and G a finite group with a Sylowp-Subgroup P. In this paper, we consider the property thatNG(P)/P is Abelian. We provide somenecessary or sufficient conditions NG(P)/P to be Abelian in term of thestructure of the group algebra kG as a k-algebra, in casethat G is p-nilpotent or of p-length 1.

关于有限群子群的弱S-可补性

设G是一个有限群,H是G的一个子群.称H为G的一个s-置换子群,若对于G的任意Sylow子群P,成立HP=PH.称H为G的一个弱s-可补的子群.若存在G的一个子群T,使得G=HT且H∩T≤H_s G,其中H_s G是包含在H中的G的最大的s-置换子群.本文在假设G的某些子群是弱s-可补的前提下,得到了G的一个结构定理,并推广了许多近期的结果.

Random Walks in Weyl Chambers and the Decomposition of Tensor Powers

We consider a class of random walks on a lattice, introduced by Gessel and Zeilberger, for which the reflection principle can be used to count the number of k-step walks between two points which stay within a chamber of a Weyl group. We prove three independent results about such reflectable walks: first, a classification of all such walks; second, many determinant formulas for walk numbers and their generating functions; third, an equality between the walk numbers and the multiplicities of irreducibles in the kth tensor power of certain Lie group representations associated to the walk types. Our results apply to the defining representations of the classical groups, as well as some spin representations of the orthogonal groups.
