Abstract:
We study the essential dimension of linear algebraic groups. For a group G, essential dimension is a measure for the complexity of G-torsors or, more generally, the complexity of any algebraic or geometric structure with automorphism group G. This makes essential dimension a powerful invariant with many interesting and surprising connections to problems in algebra and geometry. We show that for various classes of groups, including finite (algebraic) groups and algebraic tori, the essential dimension is related to minimal faithful representations. In many cases this renders the exact value of t

Abstract:
The main focus of this thesis is algebraic modules---modules that satisfy a polynomial equation with integer co-efficients in the Green ring---in various finite groups, as well as their general theory. In particular, we ask the question `when are all the simple modules for a finite group G algebraic?' We call this the (p-)SMA property. The first chapter introduces the topic and deals with preliminary results, together with the trivial first results. The second chapter provides the general theory of algebraic modules, with particular attention to the relationship between algebraic modules and t

Abstract:
This thesis is concerned with three distinct, but closely related, research topics focusing on the unipotent elements of a connected reductive algebraic group G, over an algebraically closed field k, and nilpotent elements in the Lie algebra g = LieG. The first topic is a determination of canonical forms for unipotent classes and nilpotent orbits of G. Using an original approach, we begin by obtaining a new canonical form for nilpotent matrices, up to similarity, which is symmetric with respect to the non-main diagonal (i.e. it is fixed by the map f : (xi;j) -> (xn+1-j;n+1-i)), with entries in

A set of fundamental algorithms for computing with polycyclic-by-finite groups is presented here. Polycyclic-by-finite groups arise naturally in a number of contexts; for example, as automorphism groups of large finite soluble groups, as quotients of finitely presented groups, and as extensions of modules by groups. No existing mode of representation is suitable for these groups, since they will typically not have a convenient faithful permutation representation. A mixed mode is used to represent elements of such a group; utilising a polycyclic presentation or a power-conjugate presentation fo

Let G be a connected reductive algebraic group defined over an algebraically closed field of good characteristic p>0. Suppose uEG has order p. In [T2] it is shown that u lies in a closed reductive subgroup of G of type Al. This is the best possible group theoretic analogue of the Jacobson-Morozov theorem for simple Lie algebras. Testerman's key result is a type of `exponentiation process'. For our given element u, this process constructs a 1-dimensional connected abelian unipotent subgroup of G, hence isomorphic to Ga, containing u. This in turn yields the required Al overgroup of u.

The goal of this paper is to establish necessary and sufficient conditions for a subgroup of the full homeomorphism group of a manifold to be the stability group of a point in the underlying space. Such subgroups are useful in identifying the underlying space in terms of its homeomorphism group even in cases in which this space is not necessarily a manifold. Thus, stability groups are useful in classifying various spaces.

The case of two dimensional complexes is of special interest, partly due to the relationship between such complexes and group presentations and partly since, as was recently proved, it relates to the qu
