Such a module is called super-étale if the stabilizer of a point in the open orbit is trivial. Popov (2013) proved that reductive algebraic groups admitting super-étale modules are special algebraic groups. He further conjectured that a reductive group admitting a super-étale module is always isomorphic to a product of general linear groups. Our main result is the construction of counterexamples to this conjecture, namely a family of super-étale modules for groups with a factor Sp n for arbitrary n ≥ 1. A similar construction provides a family ofétale modules for groups with a factor SO n , which shows that groups withétale modules with non-trivial stabilizer are not necessarily special. Both families of examples are somewhat surprising in light of the previously known examples ofétale and super-étale modules for reductive groups. Finally, we show that the exceptional groups F 4 and E 8 cannot appear as simple factors in the maximal semisimple subgroup of an arbitrary Lie group with a lineaŕ etale representation.

Extensions of Bessel’s equation, such as the Lommel equation, can be viewed as homogeneous parameterized linear differential equations of the third order. In this paper, we give the first known algorithm that calculates the differential Galois group of a third-order parameterized linear differential equation.

This implies that the restriction of the relative character to an open dense subset is given by an analytic function. The proof is based on an argument from algebraic geometry and thus implies also analogous results in the p-adic case. As an application, we give a short proof of some results of Kobayashi-Oshima and Kroetz-Schlichtkrull on boundedness and finiteness of multiplicities of irreducible representations in the space of functions on a spherical space. To deduce this application we prove the relative and quantitative analogs of the Bernstein-Kashiwara theorem, which states that the space of solutions of a holonomic system of differential equations in the space of distributions is finite-dimensional. We also deduce that, for every algebraic group G defined over R, the space of G(R)equivariant distributions on the manifold of real points of any algebraic G-manifold X is finite-dimensional if G has finitely many orbits on X .

To achieve this, we expand the representation theory of linear differential algebraic groups and develop new algorithms that calculate unipotent radicals of parameterized differential Galois groups for differential equations whose coefficients are rational functions. P. Berman and M.F. Singer presented an algorithm calculating the differential Galois group for differential equations without parameters whose differential operator is a composition of two completely reducible differential operators. We use their algorithm as a part of our algorithm. As a result, we find an effective criterion for the algebraic independence of the solutions of parameterized differential equations and all of their derivatives with respect to the parameter.

It is natural to ask whether all homomorphisms of root systems come from homomorphisms of their bases. Since the Dynkin diagram of Σ is, in general, not large enough to contain the diagrams of all subsystems of Σ, the answer to this question is negative. In this paper we introduce a canonical enlargement of a basis (called an enhanced basis) for which the stated question has a positive answer. We use the name an enhanced Dynkin diagram for a diagram representing an enhanced basis. These diagrams in combination with other new tools (mosets, core groups) allow to obtain a transparent picture of the natural partial order between Weyl orbits of subsystems in Σ. In this paper we consider only ADE root systems (that is, systems represented by simply laced Dynkin diagrams). The general case will be the subject of the next publication.
