Types of reductive monoids

From MaRDI portal





Let \(M\) be a reductive (algebraic) monoid with zero and with unit group \(G\) defined over an algebraically closed field \(K\). A natural \(G\times G\) action on \(M\) is \(G\times M\times G\to M\) defined by \((x,a,y)\mapsto xay^{-1}\). There are only finitely many orbits, i.e., \(\mathcal J\)-classes, which form a lattice. The general problem of finding the lattice remains open. The authors study a class of reductive monoids as the multilined closure of a representation of a (non-abelian) simple algebraic group, in particular the \((\mathcal J,\sigma)\)-irreducible monoids of Suzuki or Ree type [cf. \textit{Z. Li, L. E. Renner}, J. Algebra 190, No. 1, 172-194 (1997; Zbl 0879.20035)], and obtain a general theorem to determine the lattices for these monoids.
