This paper gives a partial answer to the Cherlin-Zil'ber Conjecture, which states that every infinite simple group of finite Morley rank is isomorphic to an algebraic group over an algebraically closed field. The classification of the generic case of tame groups of odd type follows from the main result of this work, which is an analogue of Aschbacher's Classical Involution Theorem for finite simple groups.

A generic identification theorem for L*-groups of finite Morley rank Berkman, Ayse; Borovik, Alexandre V.; Burdges, Jeffrey; Cherfin, Gregory (Elsevier BV, 2008-01-01) This paper provides a method for identifying "sufficiently rich" simple groups of finite Morley rank with simple algebraic groups over algebraically closed fields. Special attention is given to the even type case, and the paper contains a number of structural results about simple groups of finite Morley rank and even type.
An identification theorem for groups of finite Morley rank and even type Berkman, A; Borovik, AV (Elsevier BV, 2003-08-15) The paper contains a construction of a definable BN-pair in a simple group of finite Morley rank and even type with a sufficiently good system of 2-local parabolic subgroups. This provides 'the final identification theorem' for simple groups of finite Morley rank and even type.
On maximal curves and linearized permutation polynomials over finite fields Özbudak, Ferruh (Elsevier BV, 2001-08-08) The purpose of this paper is to construct maximal curves over large finite fields using linearized permutation polynomials. We also study linearized permutation polynomials under finite field extensions.
On the deformation chirality of real cubic fourfolds Finashin, Sergey (Wiley, 2009-09-01) According to our previous results, the conjugacy class of the involution induced by the complex conjugation in the homology of a real non-singular cubic fourfold determines the fourfold tip to projective equivalence and deformation. Here, we show how to eliminate the projective equivalence and obtain a pure deformation classification, that is, how to respond to the chirality problem: which cubics are not deformation equivalent to their image under a mirror reflection. We provide an arithmetical criterion of...
Value sets of Lattes maps over finite fields Küçüksakallı, Ömer (Elsevier BV, 2014-10-01) We give an alternative computation of the value sets of Dickson polynomials over finite fields by using a singular cubic curve. Our method is not only simpler but also it can be generalized to the non-singular elliptic case. We determine the value sets of Lattes maps over finite fields which are rational functions induced by isogenies of elliptic curves with complex multiplication.
