Finite abelian subgroups of algebraic groups
Danny Ofek, Zinovy Reichstein, Federico Scavia
Let be an algebraically closed field, and let be an algebraic -group. We study finite abelian -subgroups whose order is not divisible by the characteris…

Lower bounds on the essential dimension of reductive groups
Danny Ofek
We introduce a technique for proving lower bounds on the essential dimension of split reductive groups. As an application, we strengthen the best previously known lower bounds for…

Essential dimension of cohomology classes via valuation theory
Danny Ofek, Zinovy Reichstein
We give a formula for the essential dimension of a cohomology class in when is a strictly Henselian field. This formula is particula…
