Behavior of translation functors in characteristic $p$

Let $G$ be a semisimple and simply connected algebraic group over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p>0$, and let $\mathfrak g$ be the Lie algebra of $G$. Let $U_\chi(\mathfrak g)$ ...

Reference request for indecomposable representations of $\mathfrak{sl}(2)$ over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p > 0$

Is there a good reference on the classification of indecomposable representations of the Lie algebra $\mathfrak{sl}(2)$ over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p > 0$ (of course, in ...

Harish-Chandra isomorphism for characteristic $p$

I am trying to understand the proof of Theorem 1 from this paper V. Kac and B. Weisfeiler (Indag. Math. 1976, DOI link). Theorem 1. Let either $p\neq 2$ or $\varrho\in X(\mathscr{T})$. Then $\gamma(...

Branching rule for classical Lie algebras in positive characteristic

The restriction of an irreducible $\mathfrak{sl}_n(\mathbb{C})$-module to $\mathfrak{sl}_{n-1}(\mathbb{C})$ is described by a branching rule which says that if $L(\lambda)$ is the simple $\mathfrak{sl}...

Are all stabilizer groups of the co-adjoint action smooth?

Let $k$ be a (non-archimedean) local field of positive characteristic $p$ and $\mathfrak{n}$ be any finite-dimensional nilpotent Lie algebra over $k$ with nilpotence length $l<p$. It is well-known ...
