Overview
The first contribution covers the theory of finite groups of Lie type, which is an important field of current mathematical research. After giving the basic information Carter describes the Deligne-Lusztig method of obtaining characters of these groups using l-adic cohomology and subsequent work of Lusztig.The second part by Platonov and Yanchevskii surveys the structure of finite-dimensional division algebras and includes an account of reduced K-theory.
