| Research Abstract |
The research of the head investigator on radical subgroups (Project(b)) clarifies the mathematical significance of the notion of centric radical subgroups, and shows the efficiency of some methods in algebraic topology to study group complexes. Furthermore, starting with the classification of group complexes of low rank (Part of Project(a)), he found new combinatorial objects, called Y-families and dimensional dual hyperovals, which can be thought of as higher dimensional analogues of quadrics in projective planes. His recent researches contribute to establish their importance as research subjects in finite geometry and combinatorics.
Further details on Project (a) : The notion of Y-families and dimensional dual hyperovals was found as well as the following machinery : their affine expansions give EGQ (extended generalized quadrangle)s and semibiplanes, which are complexes extending buildings and affine spaces of low rank. Motivated by the research of the head investigator, the classification of those objects has been now actively investigated as well as the related combinatorial objects, such as distance regular graphs.
On Project (b) : (l) It is now convincing that minimal complexes homotopically equivalent to those of chains of centric radical subgroups are main objects to investigate. Examinations of several examples by the head investigator contribute to the recent theory of Makoto Sawabe on homotopy equivalence which covers many classes of geometries. In future, many researches in this area will be devoted to generalizing his results.
(2) All radical subgroups of every sporadic simple groups except the Monster and the baby Monster for p=2 are determined.(In the exceptional cases, the results are believed to complete.) This gives the radical chains in many sporadic groups, and it makes possible to delete many chains unnecessary to examine for verifying the Dade conjecture.
