Classification of centralizers of elements of finite simple groups of Lie type

I am currently studying the twisted Ree finite simple groups given by $^2G_2(3^{2n+1})$ and I was wondering if there is a reference for the classification of centralizers of elements in this family of ...

Group element of group algebra

For a prime $p$, let $G$ be a finite $p$-group and $F_{p}$ the field with $p$ elements. Let $A=\{a\in F_{p}G \mid a^{\sum_{x\in G}x}\neq 0\}$, where $F_pG$ is the group algebra of $G$ over $F_p$ and $...

Suppose $h_{g}: \mathbb{R}^n \to \mathbb{R}^{n-1}$ be a coboundary crossed homomorphism with action $g$ as a cyclic permutation of coordinates on $\mathbb{R}^n$ vectors. So, the acting group is a ...
