• The Brown Complex in Non-Defining Characteristic and Applications 

      [OWP-2023-14] Rossi, Damiano (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2023-07-25)
      We study the Brown complex associated to the poset of $\ell$-subgroups in the case of a finite reductive group defined over a field $\mathbb{F}_q$ of characteristic prime to $\ell$. First, under suitable hypotheses, we ...
    • The Character Triple Conjecture for Maximal Defect Characters and the Prime 2 

      [OWP-2023-15] Rossi, Damiano (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2023-08-22)
      We prove that Späth’s Character Triple Conjecture holds for every finite group with respect to maximal defect characters at the prime 2. This is done by reducing the maximal defect case of the conjecture to the so-called ...
    • Edifices: Building-like Spaces Associated to Linear Algebraic Groups; In memory of Jacques Tits 

      [OWP-2023-04] Bate, Michael; Martin, Benjamin; Röhrle, Gerhard (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2023-06-19)
      Given a semisimple linear algebraic $k$-group $G$, one has a spherical building $Δ_G$, and one can interpret the geometric realisation $Δ_G(\mathbb R)$ of $Δ_G$ in terms of cocharacters of $G$. The aim of this paper is to ...
    • Flag-Accurate Arrangements 

      [OWP-2023-01] Mücksch, Paul; Röhrle, Gerhard; Tran, Tan Nhat (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2023-02-13)
      In [MR21], the first two authors introduced the notion of an accurate arrangement, a particular notion of freeness. In this paper, we consider a special subclass, where the property of accuracy stems from a flag of flats ...
    • The Simplicial Complex of Brauer Pairs of a Finite Reductive Group 

      [OWP-2023-12] Rossi, Damiano (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2023-07-17)
      In this paper we study the simplicial complex induced by the poset of Brauer pairs ordered by inclusion for the family of finite reductive groups. In the defining characteristic case the homotopy type of this simplicial ...
