Maximal subgroups of SL(n, Z)

Abstract

We establish the existence of maximal subgroups of various diferent natures in SL(n,Z). In particular, we prove that there are continuously many maximal subgroups, we provide a maximal subgroup whose action on the projective space has no dense orbits, and we produce a faithful primitive permutation representation of PSL(n,Z) which is not 2-transitive.
