Review text

In the paper under review the author considers the relations between representations of algebraic groups and principal bundles on algebraic varieties, especially in characteristic \(p\). He shortly reviews the notions of stable and semistable vector bundles and principal \(G\)-bundles, where \(G\) is any semisimple group. Then he defines the notion of a low-height representation in characteristic \(p\) and outlines a proof of the theorem that a bundle induced from a semistable bundle by a low-height representation is again semistable. The author includes applications of this result to the following questions in characteristic \(p\): 1) Existence of the moduli spaces of semistable \(G\)-bundles on curves. 2) Rationality of the canonical parabolic for nonsemistable principal bundles on curves. 3) Luna's etale slice theorem. He outlines an application of a recent result of Hashimoto to study the singularities of the moduli spaces in (1) above, as well as when these spaces specialize correctly from characteristic \(0\) to characteristic \(p\). Moreover, he concludes by listing some open problems, in particular the problem of refining the bounds on the primes involved. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0993.00022].
