K. Sharma Department of Mathematics, Indian Institute of Technology Delhi, New Delhi, India Email: [email protected]; [email protected] Received 22 September 2016 Accepted 20 June 2018 Communicated by J.M.P. Balmaceda AMS Mathematics Subject Classification(2000): 20F05, 16U60, 20H25 Abstract. In this article we have given Lie regular generators of linear group GL(2, Fq), n where Fq is a finite field with q = p elements. Using these generators we have obtained presentations of the linear groups GL(2, F2n ) and GL(2, Fpn ) for each positive integer n. Keywords: Lie regular units; General linear group; Presentation of a group; Finite field. 1. Introduction Suppose F is a finite field and GL(n, F) is the general linear the group of n × n invertible matrices and SL(n, F) is special linear group of n × n matrices with determinant 1. We know that GL(n, F) can be written as a semidirect product, GL(n, F)= SL(n, F) oF∗, where F∗ denotes the multiplicative group of F. Let H and K be two groups having presentations H = hX | Ri and K = hY | Si, then a presentation of semidirect product of H and K is given by, −1 H oη K = hX, Y | R,S,xyx = η(y)(x) ∀x ∈ X,y ∈ Y i, where η : K → Aut(H) is a group homomorphism. Now we summarize some literature survey related to the presentation of groups. -
The General Linear Group
18.704 Gabe Cunningham 2/18/05 [email protected] The General Linear Group Definition: Let F be a field. Then the general linear group GLn(F ) is the group of invert- ible n × n matrices with entries in F under matrix multiplication. It is easy to see that GLn(F ) is, in fact, a group: matrix multiplication is associative; the identity element is In, the n × n matrix with 1’s along the main diagonal and 0’s everywhere else; and the matrices are invertible by choice. It’s not immediately clear whether GLn(F ) has infinitely many elements when F does. However, such is the case. Let a ∈ F , a 6= 0. −1 Then a · In is an invertible n × n matrix with inverse a · In. In fact, the set of all such × matrices forms a subgroup of GLn(F ) that is isomorphic to F = F \{0}. It is clear that if F is a finite field, then GLn(F ) has only finitely many elements. An interesting question to ask is how many elements it has. Before addressing that question fully, let’s look at some examples. ∼ × Example 1: Let n = 1. Then GLn(Fq) = Fq , which has q − 1 elements. a b Example 2: Let n = 2; let M = ( c d ). Then for M to be invertible, it is necessary and sufficient that ad 6= bc. If a, b, c, and d are all nonzero, then we can fix a, b, and c arbitrarily, and d can be anything but a−1bc. This gives us (q − 1)3(q − 2) matrices. -
Abelian Varieties with Complex Multiplication and Modular Functions, by Goro Shimura, Princeton Univ
BULLETIN (New Series) OF THE AMERICAN MATHEMATICAL SOCIETY Volume 36, Number 3, Pages 405{408 S 0273-0979(99)00784-3 Article electronically published on April 27, 1999 Abelian varieties with complex multiplication and modular functions, by Goro Shimura, Princeton Univ. Press, Princeton, NJ, 1998, xiv + 217 pp., $55.00, ISBN 0-691-01656-9 The subject that might be called “explicit class field theory” begins with Kro- necker’s Theorem: every abelian extension of the field of rational numbers Q is a subfield of a cyclotomic field Q(ζn), where ζn is a primitive nth root of 1. In other words, we get all abelian extensions of Q by adjoining all “special values” of e(x)=exp(2πix), i.e., with x Q. Hilbert’s twelfth problem, also called Kronecker’s Jugendtraum, is to do something2 similar for any number field K, i.e., to generate all abelian extensions of K by adjoining special values of suitable special functions. Nowadays we would add that the reciprocity law describing the Galois group of an abelian extension L/K in terms of ideals of K should also be given explicitly. After K = Q, the next case is that of an imaginary quadratic number field K, with the real torus R/Z replaced by an elliptic curve E with complex multiplication. (Kronecker knew what the result should be, although complete proofs were given only later, by Weber and Takagi.) For simplicity, let be the ring of integers in O K, and let A be an -ideal. Regarding A as a lattice in C, we get an elliptic curve O E = C/A with End(E)= ;Ehas complex multiplication, or CM,by .If j=j(A)isthej-invariant ofOE,thenK(j) is the Hilbert class field of K, i.e.,O the maximal abelian unramified extension of K. -

Matrix Lie Groups and Their Lie Algebras
Matrix Lie groups and their Lie algebras Alen Alexanderian∗ Abstract We discuss matrix Lie groups and their corresponding Lie algebras. Some common examples are provided for purpose of illustration. 1 Introduction The goal of these brief note is to provide a quick introduction to matrix Lie groups which are a special class of abstract Lie groups. Study of matrix Lie groups is a fruitful endeavor which allows one an entry to theory of Lie groups without requiring knowl- edge of differential topology. After all, most interesting Lie groups turn out to be matrix groups anyway. An abstract Lie group is defined to be a group which is also a smooth manifold, where the group operations of multiplication and inversion are also smooth. We provide a much simple definition for a matrix Lie group in Section 4. Showing that a matrix Lie group is in fact a Lie group is discussed in standard texts such as [2]. We also discuss Lie algebras [1], and the computation of the Lie algebra of a Lie group in Section 5. We will compute the Lie algebras of several well known Lie groups in that section for the purpose of illustration. 2 Notation Let V be a vector space. We denote by gl(V) the space of all linear transformations on V. If V is a finite-dimensional vector space we may put an arbitrary basis on V and identify elements of gl(V) with their matrix representation. The following define various classes of matrices on Rn: ∗The University of Texas at Austin, USA. E-mail: [email protected] Last revised: July 12, 2013 Matrix Lie groups gl(n) : the space of n -
On Balanced Subgroups of the Multiplicative Group
ON BALANCED SUBGROUPS OF THE MULTIPLICATIVE GROUP CARL POMERANCE AND DOUGLAS ULMER In memory of Alf van der Poorten ABSTRACT. A subgroup H of (Z=dZ)× is called balanced if every coset of H is evenly distributed between the lower and upper halves of (Z=dZ)×, i.e., has equal numbers of elements with represen- tatives in (0; d=2) and (d=2; d). This notion has applications to ranks of elliptic curves. We give a simple criterion in terms of characters for a subgroup H to be balanced, and for a fixed integer p, we study the distribution of integers d such that the cyclic subgroup of (Z=dZ)× generated by p is balanced. 1. INTRODUCTION × Let d > 2 be an integer and consider (Z=dZ) , the group of units modulo d. Let Ad be the × first half of (Z=dZ) ; that is, Ad consists of residues with a representative in (0; d=2). Let Bd = × × × (Z=dZ) n Ad be the second half of (Z=dZ) . We say a subgroup H of (Z=dZ) is balanced if × for each g 2 (Z=dZ) we have jgH \ Adj = jgH \ Bdj; that is, each coset of H has equally many members in the first half of (Z=dZ)× as in the second half. Let ' denote Euler’s function, so that φ(d) is the cardinality of (Z=dZ)×. If n and m are coprime integers with m > 0, let ln(m) denote the order of the cyclic subgroup hn mod mi generated by n × in (Z=mZ) (that is, ln(m) is the multiplicative order of n modulo m). -
1 the Spin Homomorphism SL2(C) → SO1,3(R) a Summary from Multiple Sources Written by Y
1 The spin homomorphism SL2(C) ! SO1;3(R) A summary from multiple sources written by Y. Feng and Katherine E. Stange Abstract We will discuss the spin homomorphism SL2(C) ! SO1;3(R) in three manners. Firstly we interpret SL2(C) as acting on the Minkowski 1;3 spacetime R ; secondly by viewing the quadratic form as a twisted 1 1 P × P ; and finally using Clifford groups. 1.1 Introduction The spin homomorphism SL2(C) ! SO1;3(R) is a homomorphism of classical matrix Lie groups. The lefthand group con- sists of 2 × 2 complex matrices with determinant 1. The righthand group consists of 4 × 4 real matrices with determinant 1 which preserve some fixed real quadratic form Q of signature (1; 3). This map is alternately called the spinor map and variations. The image of this map is the identity component + of SO1;3(R), denoted SO1;3(R). The kernel is {±Ig. Therefore, we obtain an isomorphism + PSL2(C) = SL2(C)= ± I ' SO1;3(R): This is one of a family of isomorphisms of Lie groups called exceptional iso- morphisms. In Section 1.3, we give the spin homomorphism explicitly, al- though these formulae are unenlightening by themselves. In Section 1.4 we describe O1;3(R) in greater detail as the group of Lorentz transformations. This document describes this homomorphism from three distinct per- spectives. The first is very concrete, and constructs, using the language of Minkowski space, Lorentz transformations and Hermitian matrices, an ex- 4 plicit action of SL2(C) on R preserving Q (Section 1.5). -

Symmetry is when an object can be rotated, flipped, or otherwise transformed in such a way that its appearance remains the same. Basic geometric figures should create familiar examples, take for instance the triangle. Figure 1: The symmetries of a triangle: 3 reflections, 2 rotations. The red lines represent the reflection symmetries, where the trianlge is flipped over, while the arrows represent the rotational symmetry of the triangle. -

1 Classical Groups (Problems Sets 1 – 5)
1 Classical Groups (Problems Sets 1 { 5) De¯nitions. A nonempty set G together with an operation ¤ is a group provided ² The set is closed under the operation. That is, if g and h belong to the set G, then so does g ¤ h. ² The operation is associative. That is, if g; h and k are any elements of G, then g ¤ (h ¤ k) = (g ¤ h) ¤ k. ² There is an element e of G which is an identity for the operation. That is, if g is any element of G, then g ¤ e = e ¤ g = g. ² Every element of G has an inverse in G. That is, if g is in G then there is an element of G denoted g¡1 so that g ¤ g¡1 = g¡1 ¤ g = e. The group G is abelian if g ¤ h = h ¤ g for all g; h 2 G. A nonempty subset H ⊆ G is a subgroup of the group G if H is itself a group with the same operation ¤ as G. That is, H is a subgroup provided ² H is closed under the operation. ² H contains the identity e. ² Every element of H has an inverse in H. 1.1 Groups of symmetries. Symmetries are invertible functions from some set to itself preserving some feature of the set (shape, distance, interval, :::). A set of symmetries of a set can form a group using the operation composition of functions. If f and g are functions from a set X to itself, then the composition of f and g is denoted f ± g, and it is de¯ned by (f ± g)(x) = f(g(x)) for x in X. -
Matrices Lie: an Introduction to Matrix Lie Groups and Matrix Lie Algebras
Matrices Lie: An introduction to matrix Lie groups and matrix Lie algebras By Max Lloyd A Journal submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for graduation in Mathematics. Abstract: This paper is an introduction to Lie theory and matrix Lie groups. In working with familiar transformations on real, complex and quaternion vector spaces this paper will define many well studied matrix Lie groups and their associated Lie algebras. In doing so it will introduce the types of vectors being transformed, types of transformations, what groups of these transformations look like, tangent spaces of specific groups and the structure of their Lie algebras.
