Is there something special about group rights? Many would say "yes". For some, only certain kinds of groups--ones that are oppressed, or play a special role in well-being--may have rights. For others, the kind of group is not as important as the group's culture and internal structure. At the very least, many argue, group rights ought to be more restricted than individualistic ones. For these reasons, arguing the merits of a group right is often thought to require a theory of groups or of group identity. If only certain kinds of groups may have rights then one has to identify the roles that various groups and/or identities play in personal well-being. If a group's culture or internal structure must meet certain standards then one must develop a theory of how culture or the internal organization of a minority influences people. I argue that it is a mistake to think that arguing a group right requires a theory of groups. This mistake reflects a tendency to think about group membership as a kind of good and to focus on its internal, psychological significance. But if one thinks about group membership as a vehicle of action, and focuses on the concrete effects it may have, it becomes apparent that arguing for a group right does not require a theory of groups, group identity or culture. For in the end, the issues that one must address in arguing a group rights are issues about groups. Rather, they are issues about political and moral authority, and about the extent to which moral and political norms ought to recognize and reinforce the ways that people depend upon one another. These are important issues and they raise pressing questions for political philosophy. But they are not about groups.

Le groupe de Cremona en n variables Cr_n(C) est le groupe des transformations birationnelles de l'espace projectif complexe de dimension n. Dans cette thèse, on étudie les groupes de Cremona en considérant certaines classes de „grands'' sous-groupes. Dans la première partie on considère des plongements algébriques de Cr_2(C) vers Cr_n(C). On décrit notamment quelques propriétés géométriques d'un plongement de Cr_2(C) dans Cr_5(C) dû à Gizatullin. En outre, on classifie tous les plongements algébriques de Cr_2(C) dans Cr_3(C) et on généralise ce résultat partiellement pour les plongements de Cr_n(C) dans Cr_{n+1}(C). Dans la deuxième partie, on regarde les suites des degrés des transformations birationnelles des variétés définies sur un corps quelconque. On montre qu'il n'existe qu'un nombre dénombrable de telles suites et on donne de nouvelles contraintes sur la croissance des degrés des automorphismes de l'espace affine de dimension n. Dans la troisième partie, on classifie les sous-groupes de Cr_2(C) qui ne contiennent que des éléments elliptiques, c'est-`a-dire des éléments dont les degrés des itérés sont bornés. On en déduit notamment l'alternative de Tits pour les sous-groupes quelconques de Cr_2(C). Dans la dernière partie on montre que tous les sous-groupes simples de type fini de Cr_2(C) sont finis et, sous l'hypothèse d'un lemme conjectural, qu'un groupe simple se plonge dans Cr_2(C) si et seulement s'il se plonge dans PGL_3(C)The Cremona group in n-variables Cr_n(C) is the group of birational transformations of the complex projective n-space. This thesis contributes to the research on Cremona groups through the study of certain classes of „large'' subgroups. In the first part we consider algebraic embeddings of Cr_2(C) into Cr_n(C). In particular, we describe geometrical properties of an embedding of Cr_2(C) into Cr_5(C) that was discovered by Gizatullin. We also classify all algebraic embeddings from Cr_2(C) into Cr_3(C), and we partially generalize this result to embeddings of Cr_n(C) into Cr_{n+1}(C). In a second part, we look at degree sequences of birational transformations of varieties over arbitrary fields. We show that there exist only countably many such sequences and we give new obstructions on the degree growth of automorphisms of affine n-space. In the third part, we classify subgroups of Cr_2(C) containing only elliptic elements, i.e. elements whose iterates are of bounded degree. From this we deduce in particular the Tits alternative for arbitrary subgroups of Cr_2(C). In the last part, we show that every finitely generated simple subgroup of Cr_2(C) is finite and, under the hypothesis of an unproven conjectural lemma, that a simple group can be embedded into Cr_2(C) if and only if it can be embedded into PGL_3(C)

In 1935, Philip Hall developed a formula for finding the number of ways of generating the group of symmetries of the icosahedron from a given number of its elements. In doing so, he defined a generalized Eulerian function. This thesis uses Hall's generalized Eulerian function to calculate generalized Eulerian functions for specific groups, namely: cyclic groups, dihedral groups, and p- groups.

Cette thèse est consacrée à l'étude du groupe d'automorphismes de groupes agissant sur des arbres d'une part, et du rang des groupes de Coxeter d'autre part.Via la théorie de Bass-Serre, un groupe agissant sur un arbre est doté d'une structure algébrique particulière, généralisant produits amalgamés et extensions HNN. Le groupe est en fait déterminé par certaines données combinatoires découlant de cette action, appelées graphes de groupes.
Un cas particulier de cette situation est celle d'un produit libre. Une présentation du groupe d'automorphisme d'un produit libre d'un nombre fini de groupes librement indécomposables en termes de présentation des facteurs et de leurs groupes d'automorphismes a été donnée par Fouxe-Rabinovich. Il découle de son travail que si les facteurs et leurs groupes d'automorphismes sont de présentation finie, alors le groupe d'automorphisme du produit libre est de présentation finie. Une première partie de cette thèse donne une nouvelle preuve de ce résultat, se basant sur le langage des actions de groupes sur les arbres.
Un groupe accessible est un groupe de type fini déterminé par un graphe de groupe fini dont les groupes d'arêtes sont finis et les groupes de sommets ont au plus un bout, c'est-à-dire qu'ils ne se décomposent pas en produit amalgamé ni en extension HNN sur un groupe fini. L'étude du groupe d'automorphisme d'un groupe accessible est ramenée à l'étude de groupes d'automorphismes de produits libres, de groupes de twists de Dehn et de groupes d'automorphismes relatifs des groupes de sommets. En particulier, on déduit un critère naturel pour que le groupe d'automorphismes d'un groupe accessible soit de présentation finie, et on donne une caractérisation des groupes accessibles dont le groupe d'automorphisme externe est fini. Appliqués aux groupes hyperboliques de Gromov, ces résultats permettent d'affirmer que le groupe d'automorphismes d'un groupe hyperbolique est de présentation finie, et donnent une caractérisation précise des groupes hyperboliques dont le groupe d'automorphisme externe est fini.
Enfin, on étudie le rang des groupes de Coxeter, c'est-à-dire le cardinal minimal d'un ensemble générateur pour un groupe de Coxeter donné. Plus précisément, on montre que si les composantes de la matrice de Coxeter déterminant un groupe de Coxeter sont suffisamment grandes, alors l'ensemble générateur standard est de cardinal minimal parmi tous les ensembles générateurs.

Nous définissons un homomorphisme naturel j de groupes d’Artin dans des mapping class groups de surfaces. Nous montrons que j n'est pas injectif dans la majorité des cas, contrairement à une conjecture de Perron et Vannier. Nous étudions l'homomorphisme j associé au groupe d’Artin de graphe E6 dont nous ne savons pas s'il est injectif. Nous considérons une restriction de j et nous donnons une formulation algébrique équivalente au problème de l'injectivité de cette restriction. Même sous cette forme, nous ne savons pas répondre mais, au cours de cette tentative, nous avons trouvé une présentation simple du mapping class group du tore avec une composante de bord et n points marqués. Nous donnons, de plus, des interprétations de certains groupes d’Artin en termes de mapping class groups de surfaces. Nous explicitons une lettre de N. A ‘Campo à B. Perron au sujet des singularités de fonctions holomorphes de deux variables. Dans sa lettre, A ‘Campo montre que le groupe fondamental de la fibre de Milnor d'une fonction holomorphe de deux variables est engendré par une base de cycles évanescents. Il montre que, pour certaines singularités, cette base est le cœur d'une décomposition en anses de la fibre de Milnor. Nous étendons la méthode de A ‘Campo à d'autres singularités. Nous montrons que cette amélioration est encore insuffisante.

In this thesis we study Kähler groups and their connections to Geometric Group Theory. This work presents substantial progress on three central questions in the field: (1) Which subgroups of direct products of surface groups are Kähler? (2) Which Kähler groups admit a classifying space with finite (n-1)-skeleton but no classifying space with finitely many n-cells? (3) Is it possible to give explicit finite presentations for any of the groups constructed in response to Question 2? Question 1 was raised by Delzant and Gromov. Question 2 is intimately related to Question 1: the non-trivial examples of Kähler subgroups of direct products of surface groups never admit a classifying space with finite skeleton. The only known source of non-trivial examples for Questions 1 and 2 are fundamental groups of fibres of holomorphic maps from a direct product of closed surfaces onto an elliptic curve; the first such construction is due to Dimca, Papadima and Suciu. Question 3 was posed by Suciu in the context of these examples. In this thesis we: provide the first constraints on Kähler subdirect products of surface groups (Theorem 7.3.1); develop new construction methods for Kähler groups from maps onto higher-dimensional complex tori (Section 6.1); apply these methods to obtain irreducible examples of Kähler subgroups of direct products of surface groups which arise from maps onto higher-dimensional tori and use them to show that our conditions in Theorem 7.3.1 are minimal (Theorem A); apply our construction methods to produce irreducible examples of Kähler groups that (i) have a classifying space with finite (n-1)-skeleton but no classifying space with finite n-skeleton and (ii) do not have a subgroup of finite index which embeds in a direct product of surface groups (Theorem 8.3.1); provide a new proof of Biswas, Mj and Pancholi's generalisation of Dimca, Papadima and Suciu's construction to more general maps onto elliptic curves (Theorem 4.3.2) and introduce invariants that distinguish many of the groups obtained from this construction (Theorem 4.6.2); and, construct explicit finite presentations for Dimca, Papadima and Suciu's groups thereby answering Question 3 (Theorem 5.4.4)).

Nous étudions les représentations complexes, induites par l'induction parabolique, du groupe U(5), défini sur un corps local non-archimedean de caractéristique 0. C'est Qp ou une extension finie de Qp .On parle des 'corps p-adiques'. Soit F un corps p-adique. Soit E : F une extension de corps de degré 2. Soit Gal(E : F ) = {id, σ}le groupe de Galois. On écrit σ(x) = overline{x} forall x ∈ E. Soit | |p la norme p-adique de E. Soient E* = E {0} et E 1 = {x ∈ E | xoverline{x}= 1} .U (5) a trois sous-groupes paraboliques propres. Soit P0 le sous-groupe parabolique minimal et soientP1 et P2 les deux sous-groupes paraboliques maximaux. Soient M0 , M1 et M2 les sous-groupes de Levi standards et soient N0 , N1 et N2 des sous-groupes unipotents de U (5). On a la décomposition de Levi Pi = Mi Ni , i ∈{0, 1, 2} .M0 = E* × E* × E 1 est le sous-groupe de Levi minimal, M1 = GL(2, E) × E 1 et M2 = E* × U(3) sont les sous-groupes de Levi maximaux.On considère les représentations des sous-groupes de Levi, et on les étend trivialement au sous-groupes unipotents pour obtenir des représentations des sous-groupes paraboliques. On exécute une procédure appelée 'l'induction parabolique' pour obtenir les représentations de U (5). Nous considérons les représentations de M0 , puis les représentations non-cuspidales, induites à partir de M1 et M2 . Cela veut dire que la représentation du facteur GL(2, E) de M1 est un sous-quotient propre d'une représentation induite de E* × E* à GL(2, E). La représentation du facteur U (3) de M2 est un sous-quotient propre d'une représentation induite de E* × E 1 à U(3). Un exemple pour M1 est | det |α χ(det) StGL2 * λ' , où α ∈ R, χ est un caractère unitaire de E* , StGL2 est la représentation Steinberg de GL(2, E) et λ' est un caractère de E 1 . Un exemple pour M2 est| |α χ λ (det) StU (3) , où α ∈ R, χ est un caractère unitaire de E* , λ' est un caractère unitaire de E 1et StU (3) est la représentation Steinberg de U(3). On remarque que λ' est unitaire.Ensuite on considère les représentations cuspidales de M1 .On détermine les droites et les points de réductibilité des représentations de U(5) et on détermine les sous-quotients irréductibles. Ensuite, sauf quelque cas particuliers, on détermine le dual unitaire de U(5)par rapport au quotients de Langlands. Les représentations complexes, paraboliquement induites, de U(3) sur un corps p-adique sont classifiées par Charles David Keys dans [Key84], les représentations complexes, paraboliquement induites, de U(4)sur un corps p-adique sont classifiées par Kazuko Konno dans [Kon01]We study the parabolically induced complex representations of the unitary group in 5 variables - U(5)- defined over a non-archimedean local field of characteristic 0. This is Qp or a finite extension of Qp ,where p is a prime number. We speak of a 'p-adic field'.Let F be a p-adic field. Let E : F be a field extension of degree two. Let Gal(E : F ) = {id, σ}. We write σ(x) = overline{x} forall x ∈ E. Let | |p denote the p-adic norm on E. Let E* := E {0} and let E 1 := {x ∈ E | x overline{x} = 1} .U(5) has three proper parabolic subgroups. Let P0 denote the minimal parabolic subgroup and P1 andP2 the two maximal parabolic subgroups. Let M0 , M1 and M2 denote the standard Levi subgroups and let N0 , N1and N2 denote unipotent subgroups of U(5). One has the Levi decomposition Pi = Mi Ni , i ∈ {0, 1, 2} .M0 = E* × E* × E 1 is the minimal Levi subgroup, M1 = GL(2, E) × E 1 and M2 = E* × U (3) are the two maximal parabolic subgroups.We consider representations of the Levi subgroups and extend them trivially to the unipotent subgroups toobtain representations of the parabolic groups. One now performs a procedure called 'parabolic induction'to obtain representations of U (5).We consider representations of M0 , further we consider non-cuspidal, not fully-induced representationsof M1 and M2 . For M1 this means that the representation of the GL(2, E)− part is a proper subquotientof a representation induced from E* × E* to GL(2, E). For M2 this means that the representation of theU (3)− part of M2 is a proper subquotient of a representation induced from E* × E 1 to U (3).As an example for M1 , take | det |α χ(det) StGL2 * λ' , where α ∈ R, χ is a unitary character of E* , StGL2 is the Steinberg representation of GL(2, E) and λ' is a character of E 1 . As an example forM2 , take | |α χ λ' (det) StU (3) , where α ∈ R, χ is a unitary character of E* , λ' is a character of E 1 andStU (3) is the Steinberg representation of U (3). Note that λ' is unitary.Further we consider the cuspidal representations of M1 .We determine the points and lines of reducibility of the representations of U(5), and we determinethe irreducible subquotients. Further, except several particular cases, we determine the unitary dual ofU(5) in terms of Langlands-quotients.The parabolically induced complex representations of U(3) over a p-adic field have been classied byCharles David Keys in [Key84], the parabolically induced complex representations of U(4) over a p-adicfield have been classied by Kazuko Konno in [Kon01].An aim of further study is the classication of the induced complex representations of unitary groupsof higher rank, like U (6) or U (7). The structure of the Levi subgroups of U (6) resembles the structureof the Levi subgroups of U (4), the structure of the Levi groups of U (7) resembles those of U (3) and ofU (5).Another aim is the classication of the parabolically induced complex representatioins of U (n) over ap-adic field for arbitrary n. Especially one would like to determine the irreducible unitary representations

We show that the left orders on the Artin groups of type A obtained from their Dehornoy structures are the Dehornoy orders. In the case of the Artin groups of type I2(m), m ≥ 4, we show that the left orders derived from their Dehornoy structures coincide with the orders obtained from embeddings of the groups into braid groups

Roughly speaking, a group G is omnipotent if orders of finitely many elements can be controlled independently in some finite quotients of G. We proved that pi1(S) is omnipotent when S is a surface other than P2,T2 or K2 . This generalizes the fact, previously known, that free groups are omnipotent. The proofs primarily utilize geometric techniques involving graphs of spaces with the aim of retracting certain spaces onto graphs.Approximativement, on peut dire qu'un groupe G est omnipotent si les ordresquantité d'élements d'une quantite finie d'elements peuvent etre controles independamment dans unquotient fini de Nous avons prouve que 7Ti(5) est omnipotent quand S estune surface autre que P2, T2 ou K2.

This thesis discusses subgroups of mapping class groups of particular surfaces. First, we study the Torelli group, that is, the subgroup of the mapping class group that acts trivially on the first homology. We investigate generators of the Torelli group, and we give an algorithm that factorizes elements of the Torelli group into products of particular generators. Furthermore, we investigate normal closures of powers of standard generators of the mapping class group of a punctured sphere. By using the Jones representation, we prove that in most cases these normal closures have infinite index in the mapping class group. We prove a similar result for the hyperelliptic mapping class group, that is, the group that consists of mapping classes that commute with a fixed hyperelliptic involution. As a corollary, we recover an older theorem of Coxeter (with 2 exceptional cases), which states that the normal closure of the m-th power of standard generators of the braid group has infinite index in the braid group. Finally, we study finite index subgroups of braid groups, namely, congruence subgroups of braid groups. We discuss presentations of these groups and we provide a topological interpretation of their generating sets.

Nous étudions la clôture algébrique et définissable dans les groupes libres. Les résultats principaux peuvent être résumés comme suit. Nous montrons un résultat de constructibilité des groupes hyperboliques sans torsion au-dessus de la clôture algébrique d'un sous-ensemble engendrant un groupe non abélien. Nous avons cherché à comprendre la place qu'occupe la clôture algébrique acl_G(A) dans certaines décompositions de G. Nous avons étudié la possibilité de la généralisation de la méthode de Bestvina-Paulin dans d'autres directions, en considérant les groupes de type fini qui agissent d'une manière acylindrique (au sens de Bowditch) sur les graphes hyperboliques. Enfin, nous avons étudié les relations qui existent entre les différentes notions de clôture algébrique et entre la clôture algébrique et la clôture définissableIn Chapter 1 we give basics on combinatorial group theory, starting from free groups and proceeding with the fundamental constructions: free products, amalgamated free products and HNN extensions. We outline a synthesis of Bass-Serre theory, preceded by a survey on Cayley graphs and graphs of groups. After proving the main theorem of Bass-Serre theory, we present its application to the proof of Kurosh subgroup theorem. Subsequently we recall main definitions and properties of hyperbolic spaces. In Section 1.4 we define algebraic and definable closures and recall a few other notions of model theory related to saturation and homogeneity. The last section of Chapter 1 is devoted to asymptotic cones. In Chapter 2 we prove a theorem similar to Bestvina-Paulin theorem on the limit of a sequence of actions on hyperbolic graphs. Our setting is more general: we consider Bowditch-acylindrical actions on arbitrary hyperbolic graphs. We prove that edge stabilizers are (finite bounded)-by-abelian, that tripod stabilizers are finite bounded and that unstable edge stabilizers are finite bounded. In Chapter 3 we introduce the essential notions on limit groups, shortening argument and JSJ decompositions. In Chapter 4 we present the results on constructibility of a torsion-free hyperbolic group from the algebraic closure of a subgroup. Also we discuss constructibility of a free group from the existential algebraic closure of a subgroup. We obtain a bound to the rank of the algebraic and definable closures of subgroups in torsion-free hyperbolic groups. In Section 4.2 we prove some results about the position of algebraic closures in JSJ decompositions of torsion-free hyperbolic groups and other results for free groups. Finally, in Chapter 5 we answer the question about equality between algebraic and definable closure in a free group. A positive answer has been given for a free group F of rank smaller than 3. Instead, for free groups of rank strictly greater than 3 we found some counterexample. For the free group of rank 3 we found a necessary condition on the form of a possible counterexample

Pełny tekst źródłaStreszczenie:
Cette thèse a pour objet l’étude des automorphismes des groupes d’Artin à angles droits. Etant donné un graphe simple fini G, le groupe d’Artin à angles droits GG associé à G est le groupe défini par la présentation dont les générateurs sont les sommets de G, et dont les relateurs sont les commutateurs [v,w], où {v,w} est une paire de sommets adjacents. Le premier chapitre est conçu comme une introduction générale à la théorie des groupes d’Artin à angles droits et de leurs automorphismes. Dans un deuxième chapitre, on démontre que tout sous-groupe sous-normal d’indice une puissance de p d’un groupe d’Artin à angles droits est résiduellement p-séparable. Comme application de ce résultat, on montre que tout groupe d’Artin à angles droits est résiduellement séparable dans la classe des groupes nilpotents sans torsion. Une autre application de ce résultat est que le groupe des automorphismes extérieurs d’un groupe d’Artin à angles droits est virtuellement résiduellement p-fini. On montre également que le groupe de Torelli d’un groupe d’Artin à angles droits est résiduellement nilpotent sans torsion, et, par suite, résiduellement p-fini et bi-ordonnable. Dans un troisième chapitre, on établit une présentation du sous-groupe Conj(GG) deAut(GG) formé des automorphismes qui envoient chaque générateur sur un conjugué de lui-mêmeThe purpose of this thesis is to study the automorphisms of right-angled Artin groups. Given a finite simplicial graph G, the right-angled Artin group GG associated to G is the group defined by the presentation whose generators are the vertices of G, and whose relators are commuta-tors of pairs of adjacent vertices. The first chapter is intended as a general introduction to the theory of right-angled Artin groups and their automor-phisms. In a second chapter, we prove that every subnormal subgroup ofp-power index in a right-angled Artin group is conjugacy p-separable. As an application, we prove that every right-angled Artin group is conjugacy separable in the class of torsion-free nilpotent groups. As another applica-tion, we prove that the outer automorphism group of a right-angled Artin group is virtually residually p-finite. We also prove that the Torelli group ofa right-angled Artin group is residually torsion-free nilpotent, hence residu-ally p-finite and bi-orderable. In a third chapter, we give a presentation of the subgroup Conj(GG) of Aut(GG) consisting of the automorphisms thats end each generator to a conjugate of itself

The purpose of the thesis is to give an alternative and more efficient method for working with finite groups by constructing finite groups as homomorphic images of progenitors. The method introduced can be applied to all finite groups that possess symmetric generating sets of involutions. Such groups include all finite non-abelian simple groups, which can then be constructed by the technique of manual double coset enumeration.

Un outil clé dans la théorie des représentations p-adiques est l'algèbre d'Iwasawa, construit par Iwasawa pour étudier les nombres de classes d'une tour de corps de nombres. Pour un nombre premier p, l'algèbre d'Iwasawa d'un groupe de Lie p-adique G, est l'algèbre de groupe G complétée non-commutative. C'est aussi l'algèbre des mesures p-adiques sur G. Les objets provenant de groupes semi-simples, simplement connectés ont des présentations explicites comme la présentation par Serre des algèbres semi-simples et la présentation de groupe de Chevalley par Steinberg. Dans la partie I, nous donnons une description explicite des certaines algèbres d'Iwasawa. Nous trouvons une présentation explicite (par générateurs et relations) de l'algèbre d'Iwasawa pour le sous-groupe de congruence principal de tout groupe de Chevalley semi-simple, scindé et simplement connexe sur Z_p. Nous étendons également la méthode pour l'algèbre d'Iwasawa du sous-groupe pro-p Iwahori de GL (n, Z_p). Motivé par le changement de base entre les algèbres d'Iwasawa sur une extension de Q_p nous étudions les représentations p-adiques globalement analytiques au sens d'Emerton. Nous fournissons également des résultats concernant la représentation de série principale globalement analytique sous l'action du sous-groupe pro-p Iwahori de GL (n, Z_p) et déterminons la condition d'irréductibilité. Dans la partie II, nous faisons des expériences numériques en utilisant SAGE pour confirmer heuristiquement la conjecture de Greenberg sur la p-rationalité affirmant l'existence de corps de nombres "p-rationnels" ayant des groupes de Galois (Z/2Z)^t. Les corps p-rationnels sont des corps de nombres algébriques dont la cohomologie galoisienne est particulièrement simple. Ils sont utilisés pour construire des représentations galoisiennes ayant des images ouvertes. En généralisant le travail de Greenberg, nous construisons de nouvelles représentations galoisiennes du groupe de Galois absolu de Q ayant des images ouvertes dans des groupes réductifs sur Z_p (ex GL (n, Z_p), SL (n, Z_p ), SO (n, Z_p), Sp (2n, Z_p)). Nous prouvons des résultats qui montrent l'existence d'extensions de Lie p-adiques de Q où le groupe de Galois correspond à une certaine algèbre de Lie p-adique (par exemple sl(n), so(n), sp(2n)). Cela répond au problème classique de Galois inverse pour l'algèbre de Lie simple p-adiqueA key tool in p-adic representation theory is the Iwasawa algebra, originally constructed by Iwasawa in 1960's to study the class groups of number fields. Since then, it appeared in varied settings such as Lazard's work on p-adic Lie groups and Fontaine's work on local Galois representations. For a prime p, the Iwasawa algebra of a p-adic Lie group G, is a non-commutative completed group algebra of G which is also the algebra of p-adic measures on G. It is a general principle that objects coming from semi-simple, simply connected (split) groups have explicit presentations like Serre's presentation of semi-simple algebras and Steinberg's presentation of Chevalley groups as noticed by Clozel. In Part I, we lay the foundation by giving an explicit description of certain Iwasawa algebras. We first find an explicit presentation (by generators and relations) of the Iwasawa algebra for the principal congruence subgroup of any semi-simple, simply connected Chevalley group over Z_p. Furthermore, we extend the method to give a set of generators and relations for the Iwasawa algebra of the pro-p Iwahori subgroup of GL(n,Z_p). The base change map between the Iwasawa algebras over an extension of Q_p motivates us to study the globally analytic p-adic representations following Emerton's work. We also provide results concerning the globally analytic induced principal series representation under the action of the pro-p Iwahori subgroup of GL(n,Z_p) and determine its condition of irreducibility. In Part II, we do numerical experiments using a computer algebra system SAGE which give heuristic support to Greenberg's p-rationality conjecture affirming the existence of "p-rational" number fields with Galois groups (Z/2Z)^t. The p-rational fields are algebraic number fields whose Galois cohomology is particularly simple and they offer ways of constructing Galois representations with big open images. We go beyond Greenberg's work and construct new Galois representations of the absolute Galois group of Q with big open images in reductive groups over Z_p (ex. GL(n, Z_p), SL(n, Z_p), SO(n, Z_p), Sp(2n, Z_p)). We are proving results which show the existence of p-adic Lie extensions of Q where the Galois group corresponds to a certain specific p-adic Lie algebra (ex. sl(n), so(n), sp(2n)). This relates our work with a more general and classical inverse Galois problem for p-adic Lie extensions

Dans les années 80, Shimomura a déterminé les groupes d'homotopie du spectre de Moore V(0) localisé par rapport à K(2) la deuxième K-théorie de Morava. Plus tard, avec les travaux de Devinatz et Hopkins est apparu une autre suite spectrale convergeant vers les précédents groupes d'homotopies. Lorsque le paramètre premier p de la théorie K(2) est supérieur ou égal à cinq, la précédente suite spectrale dégénère. Ainsi, déterminer ces groupes d'homotopie revient à calculer les groupes de cohomologie du groupe stabilisateur de Morava à coefficients dans l'anneau de Lubin-Tate modulo p. En 2007, Henn a démontré l'existence, lorsque p > 3, d'une résolution projective du groupe de Morava de longueur quatre. Dans cette thèse, nous précisons une telle résolution projective. On l'applique ensuite au calcul effectif des groupes de cohomologie à coefficients dans l'anneau de Lubin-Tate modulo p. Enfin, on donne une seconde application, en redémontrant un résultat de Hopkins non publié sur le groupe de Picard de la catégorie des spectres K(2)-locaux.

Une classification complète dans S_n est établie pour tout entier positif n et premier p. De plus, on montre que la classification dans le groupe étendu dépend aussi de F et son unité associée u dans l'anneau des entiers p-adiques. On établit un cadre théorique pour la classification dans G_n(u), on donne des conditions nécessaires et suffisantes sur n, p et u pour l'existence dans G_n(u) d'extensions de sous-groupes finis maximaux de S_n par le groupe de Galois de F_{p^n} sur F_p, et lorsque de telles extensions existent on dénombre leurs classes de conjugaisons. On illustre nos méthodes en fournissant une classification complète et explicite dans le cas n=2The problem addressed is the classification up to conjugation of the finite subgroups of the (classical) Morava stabilizer group S_n and the extended Morava stabilizer group G_n(u) associated to a formal group law F of height n over the field F_p of p elements. A complete classification in S_n is provided for any positive integer n and prime p. Furthermore, we show that the classification in the extended group also depends on F and its associated unit u in the ring of p-adic integers. We provide a theoretical framework for the classification in G_n(u), we give necessary and sufficient conditions on n, p and u for the existence in G_n(u) of extensions of maximal finite subgroups of S_n by the Galois group of F_{p^n} over F_p, and whenever such extension exist we enumerate their conjugacy classes. We illustrate our methods by providing a complete and explicit classification in the case n=2

The present thesis aims to develop an analogy between the methods for recognizing a black box group and the classification of the finite simple groups. We propose a uniform approach for recognizing simple groups of Lie type which can be viewed as the computational version of the classification of the finite simple groups. Similar to the inductive argument on centralizers of involutions which plays a crucial role in the classification project, our approach is based on a recursive construction of the centralizers of involutions in black box groups. We present an algorithm which constructs a long root SL_2(q)-subgroup in a finite simple group of Lie type of odd characteristic $p$ extended possibly by a p-group. Following this construction, we take the Aschbacher's ``Classical Involution Theorem'
'
as a model in the final recognition algorithm and we propose an algorithm which constructs all root SL_2(q)-subgroups corresponding to the nodes in the extended Dynkin diagram, that is, our approach is the construction of the the extended Curtis - Phan - Tits presentation of the finite simple groups of Lie type of odd characteristic which further yields the construction of all subsystem subgroups which can be read from the extended Dynkin diagram. In this thesis, we present this algorithm for the groups PSL_n(q) and PSU_n(q). We also present an algorithm which determines whether the p-core (or ``unipotent radical'
'
) O_p(G) of a black box group G is trivial or not where G/O_p(G) is a finite simple classical group of Lie type of odd characteristic p answering a well-known question of Babai and Shalev. The algorithms presented in this thesis have been implemented extensively in the computer algebra system GAP.

Given a prime number p, Bloch and Kato showed how the p Selmer group of an abelian variety A over a number field K is determined by the p-adic Tate module. In general, the pm1-Selmer group Selpmn A need not be determined by the mod pm Galois representation A[pm]; we show, however, that this is the case if p is large enough. More precisely, we exhibit a finite explicit set of rational primes E depending on K and A, such that Selpm A is determined by A[pm] for all ... In the course of the argument we describe the flat cohomology group ... of the ring of integers of K with coefficients in the pm- torsion A[pm] of the Neron model of A by local conditions for p V E, compare them with the local conditions defining Selm 2A, and prove that A[p't ] itself is determined by A[pm] for such p. Our method sharpens the relationship between Selpm A and ... which was observed by Mazur and continues to work for other isogenies 0 between abelian varieties over global fields provided that deg o is constrained appropriately. To illustrate it, we exhibit resulting explicit rank predictions for the elliptic curve 11A1 over certain families of number fields. Standard glueing techniques developed in the course of the proofs have applications to finite flat group schemes over global bases, permitting us to transfer many of the known local results to the global setting.

This thesis contains a study of the spaces of homomorphisms from hyperbolic triangle groups to finite groups of Lie type which leads to a number of deterministic, asymptotic,and probabilistic results on the (p1, p2, p3)-generation problem for finite groups of Lie type. Let G₀ = L(pn) be a finite simple group of Lie type over the finite field Fpn and let T = Tp1,p2,p3 be the hyperbolic triangle group (x,y : xp1 = yp2 = (xy)p3 = 1) where p1, p2, p3 are prime numbers satisfying the hyperbolic condition 1/p1 + 1/p2 + 1/p3 < 1. In general, the size of Hom(T,G₀) is a polynomial in q, where q = pn, whose degree gives the dimension of Hom(T,G), where G is the corresponding algebraic group, seen as a variety. Computing the precise size of Hom(T,G₀) or giving an asymptotic estimate leads to a number of applications. One can for example investigate whether or not there is an epimorphism in Hom(T,G₀). This is equivalent to determining whether or not G₀ is a (p1, p2, p3)-group. Asymptotically, one might be interested in determining the probability that a random homomorphism in Hom(T,G₀) is an epimorphism as |G₀|→∞ . Given a prime number p, one can also ask wether there are finitely, or infinitely many positive integers n such that L(pn) is a (p1, p2, p3)-group. We solve these problems for the following families of finite simple groups of Lie type of small rank: the classical groups PSL2(q), PSL3(q), PSU3(q) and the exceptional groups 2B2(q), 2G2(q), G2(q), 3D4(q). The methods involve the character theory and the subgroup structure of these groups. Following the concept of linear rigidity of a triple of elements in GLn(Fp), used in inverse Galois theory, we introduce the concept for a hyperbolic triple of primes to be rigid in a simple algebraic group G. The triple (p1, p2, p3) is rigid in G if the sum of the dimensions of the subvarieties of elements of order p1, p2, p3 in G is equal to 2 dim G. This is the minimum required for G(pn) to have a generating triple of elements of these orders. We formulate a conjecture that if (p1, p2, p3) is a rigid triple then given a prime p there are only finitely many positive integers n such that L(pn) is a (p1, p2, p3)-group. We prove this conjecture for the classical groups PSL2(q), PSL3(q), and PSU3(q) and show that it is consistent with the substantial results in the literature about Hurwitz groups (i.e. when (p1, p2, p3) = (2, 3, 7)). We also classify the rigid hyperbolic triples of primes in algebraic groups, and in doing so we obtain some new families of non-Hurwitz groups.

Part I of this thesis studies P[subscript(G)](d), the probability of generating a nonabelian simple group G with d randomly chosen elements, and extends this idea to consider the conditional probability P[subscript(G,Soc(G))](d), the probability of generating an almost simple group G by d randomly chosen elements, given that they project onto a generating set of G/Soc(G). In particular we show that for a 2-generated almost simple group, P[subscript(G,Soc(G))](2) 53≥90, with equality if and only if G = A₆ or S₆. Furthermore P[subscript(G,Soc(G))](2) 9≥10 except for 30 almost simple groups G, and we specify this list and provide exact values for P[subscript(G,Soc(G))](2) in these cases. We conclude Part I by showing that for all almost simple groups P[subscript(G,Soc(G))](3)≥139/150. In Part II we consider a related notion. Given a probability ε, we wish to determine d[superscript(ε)] (G), the number of random elements needed to generate a finite group G with failure probabilty at most ε. A generalisation of a result of Lubotzky bounds d[superscript(ε)](G) in terms of l(G), the chief length of G, and d(G), the minimal number of generators needed to generate G. We obtain bounds on the chief length of permutation groups in terms of the degree n, and bounds on the chief length of completely reducible matrix groups in terms of the dimension and field size. Combining these with existing bounds on d(G), we obtain bounds on d[superscript(ε)] (G) for permutation groups and completely reducible matrix groups.

The conjugacy length function of a group Γ determines, for a given a pair of conjugate elements u,v ∈ Γ, an upper bound for the shortest γ in Γ such that uγ = γv, relative to the lengths of u and v. This thesis focuses on estimating the conjugacy length function in certain finitely generated groups. We first look at a collection of solvable groups. We see how the lamplighter groups have a linear conjugacy length function; we find a cubic upper bound for free solvable groups; for solvable Baumslag--Solitar groups it is linear, while for a larger family of abelian-by-cyclic groups we get either a linear or exponential upper bound; also we show that for certain polycyclic metabelian groups it is at most exponential. We also investigate how taking a wreath product effects conjugacy length, as well as other group extensions. The Magnus embedding is an important tool in the study of free solvable groups. It embeds a free solvable group into a wreath product of a free abelian group and a free solvable group of shorter derived length. Within this thesis we show that the Magnus embedding is a quasi-isometric embedding. This result is not only used for obtaining an upper bound on the conjugacy length function of free solvable groups, but also for giving a lower bound for their Lp compression exponents. Conjugacy length is also studied between certain types of elements in lattices of higher-rank semisimple real Lie groups. In particular we obtain linear upper bounds for the length of a conjugator from the ambient Lie group within certain families of real hyperbolic elements and unipotent elements. For the former we use the geometry of the associated symmetric space, while for the latter algebraic techniques are employed.

For the non-affine groups, additional information is given: the degree d of G, the shape of a stabiliser in G of the primitive action, the shape of the normaliser N in S[subscript(d)] of G and the rank of N. Part II presents a new algorithm NormaliserGL for computing the normaliser in GL[subscript(n)](q) of a group G ≤ GL[subscript(n)](q). The algorithm is implemented in the computational algebra system MAGMA and employs Aschbacher's theorem to break the problem into several cases.

The generation problems are very interesting in the theory of finite groups. These problems can often be reduced to problems on the generators of p-groups. This has led to an increasing interest on the problems of generation in p-groups and on the study of classes of p-groups in which generators satisfy some precise conditions.
In particular, it is very interesting the class of finite p-groups G with the property that the rank of G is equal to the number of generators of G (i.e. the number of generators of every subgroup of G is smaller than or equal to the number of generators of G). For instance, the abelian, the modular and the powerful p-groups belong to this class. Also the monotone p-groups lie in this class. We recall here the definition of monotone p-groups.
Definition: Let G be a group. We denote with d(G) the number of generators of G.
A p-group G is monotone if for every H and K subgroups of G with H contained in K, we have that d(H) is smaller than or equal to d(K).
The class of monotone p-groups was introduced by A. Mann during the 1985 Saint Andrews Conference. In the paper " The number of generators of finite p-groups" published in 2005, Mann studies the monotone p-groups and classifies the monotone p-groups for p odd.
When p=2, Mann does not classify the monotone 2-groups, but he gives some remarkable properties. For instance, he proves that a 2-group G is monotone if and only if the 2-generated subgroups of G are metacyclic.
In this thesis, the monotone 2-groups are studied and completely determined.I problemi di generazione sono problemi estremamente interessanti nella teoria dei gruppi finiti. Tali problemi spesso si riducono a problemi sui generatori di p-gruppi. Questo ha portato ad un sempre maggiore interesse per i problemi di generazione nei p-gruppi e allo studio di classi di p-gruppi finiti in cui i generatori del gruppo e dei sottogruppi soddisfano alcune precise condizioni. Di particolare interesse é la classe dei p-gruppi finiti G tali che il numero di generatori di ogni sottogruppo H di G è minore o uguale del numero di generatori di G. Esempi di p-gruppi appartenenti a questa classe sono i p-gruppi abeliani, i p-gruppi modulari e i p-gruppi powerful. Soddisfano tale proprietà anche i p-gruppi monotoni. Per questi ultimi ricordiamo la definizione. Definizione. Dato G un gruppo, sia d(G) il numero di generatori di G. Un p-gruppo G si dice monotono se per ogni H e K sottogruppi di G con H contenuto in K, si ha che d(H) è minore o uguale a d(K). I p-gruppi monotoni sono stati introdotti da A. Mann durante una conferenza tenutasi a Saint Andrews nel 1985. Lo stesso autore, in "The number of generators of finite p-groups", lavoro pubblicato nel 2005, studia i p-gruppi monotoni e li classifica per p dispari. Del caso p=2, non viene data alcuna classificazione ma vengono date alcune proprietà interessanti. Ad esempio, Mann dimostra che un 2-gruppo G è monotono se e solo se i sottogruppi 2-generati di G sono metaciclici. In questa tesi vengono studiati e classificati completamente i 2-gruppi monotoni.

Computational group theory deals with the design, analysis and computer implementation of algorithms for solving computational problems involving groups, and with the applications of the programs produced to interesting questions in group theory, in other branches of mathematics, and in other areas of science. This thesis describes an implementation of a proposal for a Soluble Quotient Algorithm, i.e. a description of the algorithms used and a report on the findings of an empirical study of the behaviour of the programs, and gives an account of an application of the programs. The programs were used for the construction of soluble groups with interesting properties, e.g. for the construction of soluble groups of large derived length which seem to be candidates for groups having efficient presentations. New finite soluble groups of derived length six with trivial Schur multiplier and efficient presentations are described. The methods for finding efficient presentations proved to be only practicable for groups of moderate order. Therefore, for a given derived length soluble groups of small order are of interest. The minimal soluble groups of derived length less than or equal to six are classified.

I Prilozhen. 27 (1993), no. 1, 25-32] and that of Rouviere [Compositio Math. 73 (1990), no. 3, 241-270] can be described by considering a connected, finite-dimentional symmetric space G/H (as defined by Rouviere), with ???exponential map???, Exp, from L G/L H to G/H, an action, ???: K ??? Aut??(G) (where Aut?? (G) is the projection onto G/H of all the automorphisms of G which leave H invariant), of a Lie group, K, on G/H and the corresponding action, ???# , of K on L G/L H defined by g ??? L (???g), along with a quadruple (s, E, j, E#), where s is a ???# - invariant, open neighbourhood of 0 in L G/L H, E is a test-function subspace of C??? (Exp s), j ?? C??? (s), and E# is a test-function subspace of C??? (s) which contains { j.f Exp: f ?? E }. Of interest is the question: Is the function ???: ?? ??? ????, where ??: f ??? j.f Exp, a local associative algebra homomorphism from F# with multiplication defined via convolution with respect to a function e: s x s ??? C, to F, with the usual convolution for its multiplication (where F is the space of all ??? - invariant distributions of E and F# is the space of all ???# - invariant distributions of E#)? For this system of objects, we can show that, to some extent, the choice of the function j is not critical, for it can be ???absorbed??? into the function e. Also, when K is compact, we can show that ??? ker ?? = { f ?? E : ???k f (???g) dg = 0}. These results turn out to be very useful for calculations on s2 ??? G/H, where G = SO(3) and H??? SO(3) with H ??? SO(2) with ??? : h ??? Lh, as we can use these results to show that there is no quadruple (s, E, j, E#) for SO(3)/H with j analytic in some neighbourhood of 0 such that ??? is a local homomorphism from F# to F. Moreover, we can show that there is more than one solution for the case where s, E and E# are as chosen by Rouviere, if e is does not have to satisfy e(??,??) = e(??,??).

The purpose of this thesis is to discuss the rôle of certain types of quiver which appear in the modular representation theory of finite groups. It is our concern to study two different types of quiver. First of all we construct the ordinary quiver of certain blocks of defect 2 of the symmetric group, and then apply our results to the alternating group and to the theory of partitions. Secondly, we consider connected components of the stable Auslander-Reiten quiver of certain groups G with normal subgroup N. The main interest lies in comparing the tree class of components of N-modules, with the tree class of components of these modules induced up to G.

In this thesis, we have presented our discovery of true finite homomorphic images of various permutation and monomial progenitors, such as 2*7: D14, 2*7 : (7 : 2), 2*6 : S3 x 2, 2*8: S4, 2*72: (32:(2S4)), and 11*2 :m D10. We have given delightful symmetric presentations and very nice permutation representations of these images which include, the Mathieu groups M11, M12, the 4-fold cover of the Mathieu group M22, 2 x L2(8), and L2(13). Moreover, we have given constructions, by using the technique of double coset enumeration, for some of the images, including M11 and M12. We have given proofs, either by hand or computer-based, of the isomorphism type of each image. In addition, we use Iwasawa's Lemma to prove that L2(13) over A5, L2(8) over D14, L2(13) over D14, L2(27) over 2D14, and M11 over 2S4 are simple groups. All of the work presented in this thesis is original to the best of our knowledge.
