Low-dimensional representations of finite simple groups and conjectures of Katz, Kollar, and Larsen

Pham Huu Tiep (Arizona), 21st May 2009

Abstract

In the first part of the talk we will survey recent results on representations of finite (quasi)simple groups. In the second part we will discuss proofs of some conjectures of Katz, Kollar, and Larsen. This is joint work with R. M. Guralnick.
