Abstract:We analyze the abstract representations of the groups of rational points of even-dimensional quasi-split special unitary groups associated with quadratic field extensions. We show that, under certain assumptions, such representations have a standard description, as predicted by a conjecture of Borel and Tits [5]. Our method extends the approach introduced by the first author in [15] to study abstract representations of Chevalley groups and is based on the construction and analysis of a certain algebraic ring a… Show more
