Let ${\bf G}$ be a connected reductive algebraic group defined over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ with $q$ elements,where $q$ is a power of a prime number $p$. Let $\Bbbk$ be a field and we study the extensions of certain $\bk\bg$-modules in this paper. We show that the extensions of any modules in $\mathscr{O}(\bg)$ by a finite-dimensional $\bk\bg$-module is zero if $p\ne \op{char}\bk\ge5$ or $\op{char}\bk=0$, where $\mathscr{O}(\bg)$ is the principal representation category defined in \cite{D1}. We determine the necessary and sufficient condition for the vanishing of extensions between naive induced modules. As an application, we give the condition of the vanishing of extensions between simple modules in $\mathscr{O}({\bf G})$ for $\bg=SL_2(\bar{\mathbb{F}}_q)$., Comment: 20 pages. We add some new results

In this paper we introduce an abelian category $\mathscr{X}(\bf G)$ to study the complex representations of a reductive algebraic groups $\bf G$ with Frobenius map. We classify all the simple objects in $\mathscr{X}(\bf G)$ and show that this category is a highest weight category., Comment: 27 pages

We introduce the representation category $\mathscr{C}({\bf G})$ for a connected reductive algebraic group ${\bf G}$ which is defined over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ of $q$ elements. We show that this category has many good properties for ${\bf G}=SL_2(\bar{\mathbb{F}}_q)$. In particular, it is an abelian category and a highest weight category. Moreover, we classify the simple objects in $\mathscr{C}({\bf G})$ for ${\bf G}=SL_2(\bar{\mathbb{F}}_q)$., Comment: 23 pages

Let $\bf G$ be a connected reductive algebraic group over an algebraically closed field $\Bbbk$ and ${\bf B}$ be an Borel subgroup of ${\bf G}$. In this paper we completely determine the composition factors of the permutation module $\mathbb{F}[{\bf G}/{\bf B}]$ for any field $\mathbb{F}$., Comment: 16 pages, accepted by Nagoya Mathematical Journal

For a connected reductive algebraic group $G$ defined over a finite field $\mathbb F_q$, Kawanaka introduced the generalized Gelfand-Graev representations (GGGRs for short) of the finite group $G(\mathbb F_q)$ in the case where $q$ is a power of a good prime for $G$. This representation has been widely studied and used in various contexts. Recently, Geck proposed a conjecture, characterizing Lusztig's special unipotent classes in terms of weighted Dynkin diagrams. Based on this conjecture, he gave a guideline for extending the definition of GGGRs to the case where $q$ is a power of a bad prime for $G$. Here, we will give a proof of Geck's conjecture. Combined with Geck's pioneer work, our proof verifies Geck's conjectural characterization of special unipotent classes, and completes his definition of GGGRs in bad characteristics., Comment: 33 pages

We generalize the Alvis-Curtis duality to the abstract representations of reductive groups with Frobenius maps. Similar to the case of representations of finite reductive groups, we show that the Alvis-Curtis duality of infinite type which we define in this paper also interchanges the irreducible representations in the principal representation category., Comment: 9 pages, accepted by Forum Mathematicum

We introduce the principal representation category $\mathscr{O}({\bf G})$ of reductive algebraic groups with Frobenius maps and put forward a conjecture that this category is a highest weight category. When $\Bbbk$ is complex field $\mathbb{C}$, we provide some evidences of this conjecture. We also study certain kind of bound quiver algebras whose representations are related to the principal representation category $\mathscr{O}({\bf G})$ ., Comment: 14 pages

Let ${\bf G}$ be a connected reductive algebraic group defined over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ of $q$ elements, and ${\bf B}$ be a Borel subgroup of ${\bf G}$ defined over $\mathbb{F}_q$. Let $\Bbbk$ be a field and we assume that $\Bbbk=\bar{\mathbb{F}}_q $ when $\text{char}\ \Bbbk=\text{char} \ \mathbb{F}_q$. We show that the abstract induced module $\mathbb{M}(\theta)=\Bbbk{\bf G}\otimes_{\Bbbk{\bf B}}\theta$ (here $\Bbbk{\bf H}$ is the group algebra of ${\bf H}$ over the field $\Bbbk$ and $\theta$ is a character of ${\bf B}$ over $\Bbbk$) has a composition series (of finite length) if $\text{char}\ \Bbbk\ne \text{char} \ \mathbb{F}_q$. In the case $\Bbbk=\bar{\mathbb{F}}_q$ and $\theta$ is a rational character, we give a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of a composition series (of finite length) of $\mathbb{M}(\theta)$. We determine all the composition factors whenever a composition series exists. Thus we obtain a large class of abstract infinite-dimensional irreducible $\Bbbk{\bf G}$-modules., Comment: 28 pages

Let ${\bf G}$ be a connected reductive group defined over $\mathbb{F}_q$, the finite field with $q$ elements. Let ${\bf B}$ be an Borel subgroup defined over $\mathbb{F}_q$. In this paper, we completely determine the composition factors of the induced module $\mathbb{M}(\op{tr})=\Bbbk{\bf G}\otimes_{\Bbbk{\bf B}}\op{tr}$ ($\op{tr}$ is the trivial ${\bf B}$-module) for any field $\Bbbk$., Comment: Accepted by Science China Mathematics

Let $G = GL(V)$ for an N-dimensional vector space $V$ over an algebraically closed field k, and $G^{\theta}$ the fixed point subgroup of $G$ under an involution $\theta$ on $G$. In the case where $G^{\theta} = O(V)$, the generalized Springer correspondence for the unipotent variety of the symmetric space $G/G^{\theta}$ was studied by last two authors, under the assumption that ch k is odd. The definition of $\theta$, and of the associated symmetric space given there make sense even if ch k = 2. In this paper, we discuss the Springer correspondence for those symmetric spaces of even characteristic. We show that if N is even, the Springer correspondence is reduced to that of symplectic Lie algebras in ch k = 2, which was determined by Xue. While if N is odd, we show that a very similar phenomenon as in the case of exotic symmetric space of level 3 appears., Comment: 70 pages

Let ${\bf G}$ be a connected reductive group over $\bar{\mathbb{F}}_q$, the algebraically closure of $\mathbb{F}_q$ (the finite field with $q=p^e$ elements), with the standard Frobenius map $F$. Let ${\bf B}$ be an $F$-stable Borel subgroup. Let $\Bbbk$ be a field of characteristic $r\neq p$. In this paper, we completely determine the composition factors of the induced module $Ind_{B}^{G}{tr}=\Bbbk{G}\otimes_{\Bbbk{\bf B}}$ tr (here $\Bbbk{H}$ is the group algebra of the group ${H}$, and tr is the trivial $B$-module). In particular, we find a new family of infinite dimensional irreducible abstract representations of $G$., Comment: Accepted by Mathematische Zeitschrift

For infinite reductive groups with Frobenius maps, we show that certain subquotients of abstract representations of the groups induced from 1-dimensional representations of Borel subgroups are irreducible., Comment: 47 pages
