Jacques Tits: Œuvres
No full textJacques Tits was awarded the Wolf Prize in 1993 and the Abel Prize (jointly with John Thompson) in 2008. The impact of his contributions in algebra, group theory and geometry made over a span of more than five decades is incalculable. Many fundamental developments in several fields of mathematics have their origin in ideas of Tits. A number of Tits’ papers mark the starting point of completely new directions of research. Outstanding examples are papers on quadratic forms, on Kac–Moody groups and on what subsequently became known as the Tits-alternative.These volumes contain an almost complete collection of Tits’ mathematical writings. They include, in particular, a number of published and unpublished manuscripts which have not been easily accessible until now. This collection of Tits’ contributions in one place makes the evolution of his mathematical thinking visible. The development of his theory of buildings and BN-pairs and its bearing on the theory of algebraic groups, for example, reveal a fascinating story. Along with Tits’ mathematical writings, these volumes contain biographical data, survey articles on aspects of Tits’ work and comments by the editors on the content of some of his papers.With the publication of these volumes, a major piece of 20th century mathematics is being made available to a wider audience.Textes de Jacques Tits en français, préface en anglais, autres textes en français, anglais ou allemand.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishe
Jacques Tits
No full textNa samom početku ovog diplomskog rada istraživat ćemo život i odrastanje Jacquesa Tits, njegovu obitelj i djetinjstvo. Prikazat ćemo njegovo osnovnoškolsko i srednjoškolsko obrazovanje, također ćemo spomenuti kako je bio prepoznat kao ''čudo od djeteta''. Razmotrit ćemo i njegov studij, kao i suradnje s istaknutim matematičarima. Nakon što se upoznamo s njegovim životom i okolnostima u kojima je odrastao, usmjerit ćemo se na njegove značajne doprinose matematici. Obradit ćemo njegov život te doprinos nakon završetka studija. Jacques Tits ostavio je trag u mnogim područjima, uključujući projektivnu geometriju, Cremoninu grupu, Liejeve grupe, incidencijsku geometriju, generalizirane mnogokute, Moufangine mnogokute, itd. No ono što njegov rad čini posebno vrijednim je teorija zgrada, koja se ističe kao jedno od njegovih najvažnijih dostignuća

Jacques Tits motivic measure
Full text linkIn this article we construct a new motivic measure called the Jacques Tits motivic measure. As a first main application, we prove that two Severi-Brauer varieties (or, more generally, two twisted Grassmannian varieties), associated to 2-torsion central simple algebras, have the same class in the Grothendieck ring of varieties if and only if they are isomorphic. In addition, we prove that if two Severi-Brauer varieties, associated to central simple algebras of period {3,4,5,6}, have the same class in the Grothendieck ring of varieties, then they are necessarily birational to each other. As a second main application, we prove that two quadric hypersurfaces (or, more generally, two involution varieties), associated to quadratic forms of dimension 6 or to quadratic forms of arbitrary dimension defined over a base field k with I3(k)=0, have the same class in the Grothendieck ring of varieties if and only if they are isomorphic. In addition, we prove that the latter main application also holds for products of quadric hypersurfaces
