Does the Bruhat decomposition induces decomposition on integral points (on an open cell)?
Edit: both questions are resolved in comments. Let $F$ be a local field and $O$ its integral points. Let $G$ be a split reductive group over $O$. The Bruhat decomposition states that there is a ...

Stabilizer of a Levi subgroup in the Weyl group and its quotient
(I appologize in advance if this question is too naive for experts, since I know very little about the geometry/combinatorics of Weyl/Coxeter groups.)
For simplicity, let $G$ be a connected reductive ...

Why the hyperoctahedral group is a ``reductive'' group?
Sorry for the misleading title, I actually mean the following:
The $n$-th hyperoctahedral group, also known as the Weyl group of $\mathrm{Sp}_{2n}$ and of $\mathrm{SO}_{2n+1}$, is isomorphic to the ...

Description of the center of a reductive group using absolute and relative roots
Let $G$ be a connected, reductive group over a field $k$. Let $T \subseteq B$ be a maximal torus and Borel subgroup of $G$ with corresponding base $\Delta \subseteq X(T)$. Then $T$ contains $Z(G)$, ...
