Let G be a simple algebraic group over an algebraically closed field K of characteristic p >= 0, let H be a proper closed subgroup of G and let V be a nontrivial irreducible KG-module, which is p-restricted, tensor indecomposable and rational. Assume that ...
We produce a rigid triple of classes in the algebraic group G(2) in characteristic 5, and use it to show that the finite groups G(2)(5(n)) are not (2, 5, 5)-generated. ...
Given a triple (p(1), p(2), p(3)) of primes, the object of this paper is the study of the space Hom(T-p1,T-p2,T-p3, G) of homomorphisms from the triangle group T-p1,T-p2,T-p3 to a finite simple exceptional group G of Lie type B-2(2), (2)G(2), G(2) or D-3(4 ...
