Free action of SL_2(F_p) on a sphere

Apparently, a linear free action exists only for $p=5$ (if $p\ge 5$), see paper by C. Thomas "Almost linear actions by $SL_2(p)$ on $S^{2n-1}$". There is a weaker notion of an "almost linear" action, …

Interaction of topology and the Picard group of Algebraic surfaces

Even if there is no lines or rational curves, there can still be spheres representing classes in $H^2$. There is no contradiction here since these spheres are maps from $S^2$ to the surface which are …

Cohomology of Lie groups and Lie algebras

In question 1, it seems that the subspace $H^*(g(Q))$ in $H^*(g(C))$ indeed depends on the rational form of g. Consider the example of $sl(3)$ and two rational forms, $su(3,Q)$ and $sl(3,Q)$, and look …
