Abstract: Let $G$ be the universal Chevalley-Demazure group scheme corresponding to a reduced irreducible root system of rank $geq2$, and let $R$ be a commutative ring. We analyze the linear representations $hocolonG(R{)}^{+}oG{L}_n(K)$ over an algebraically closed field $K$ of the elementary subgroup $G(R{)}^{+}subsetG(R).$ Our main result is that under certain conditions, any such representation has a standard description, i.e. there exists a commutative finite-dimensional $K$-algebra $B$, a ring homomorphism $fcolonRoB$ with Zariski-dense image, and a morphism of algebraic groups $sigmacolonG(B)oG{L}_n(K)$ such that $ho$ coincides with $sigmacircF$ on a suitable finite index subgroup $GammasubsetG(R{)}^{+},$ where $FcolonG(R{)}^{+}oG(B{)}^{+}$ is the group homomorphism induced by $f.$ In particular, this confirms a conjecture of Borel and Tits for Chevalley groups over a field of characteristic zero.
