Fixed-point implication for the Algebraicity Conjecture
Fixed-point implication for the Algebraicity Conjecture
Let be an infinite simple group of finite Morley rank, and let be a generic automorphism of . Let the group of fixed points of be .
Fixed-point implication conjecture. If the group of fixed points of is pseudofinite, then is isomorphic to a Chevalley group over an algebraically closed field.
This conjecture is intended to establish the converse direction to the implication from the Algebraicity Conjecture to pseudofiniteness of generic fixed points. The source gives no resolution, so it remains open.
