Let F be a non-Archimedean locally compact field of residue characteristic p, let D be a finite dimensional central division F-algebra and let R be an algebraically closed field of characteristic different from p. We classify all smooth…
This paper examines 8-dimensional Riemannian manifolds whose structure group reduces to ${SO(4)}_{ir}\subset GL(8,\mathbb R)$, the image of an irreducible representation of $SO(4)$ on $\mathbb R^8$. We demonstrate that such a reduction can…
The set of linear, differential operators preserving the vector space of couples of polynomials of degrees n and n-2 in one real variable leads to an abstract associative graded algebra A(2). The irreducible, finite dimensional…

We give necessary conditions for the existence of degenerations between two complex Lie superalgebras of dimension $(m,n)$. As an application, we study the variety $\mathcal{LS}^{(2,2)}$ of complex Lie superalgebras of dimension $(2,2)$.…
We find two different families of $Sp(2,R)$ symmetric $G_2$ structures in seven dimensions. These are $G_2$ structures with $G_2$ being the split real form of the simple exceptional complex Lie group $G_2$. The first family has…
Orthogonal spaces are vector spaces together with a quadratic form whose associated bilinear form is non-degenerate. Over fields of characteristic two, there are many quadratic forms associated to a given bilinear form and quadratic…
We consider non-infinitesimal deformations of G2-structures on 7-dimensional manifolds and derive an exact expression for the torsion of the deformed G2-structure. We then specialize to a case when the deformation is defined by a vector v…
We provide a unified geometric realization of the classical deformation complexes. We construct GL-equivariant bilinear incidence varieties whose diagonal slices recover the varieties of associative, commutative, Leibniz, and Lie algebra…
The complete integrability of the hyperbolic Gaudin Hamiltonian and other related integrable systems is shown to be easily derived by taking into account their sl(2,R) coalgebra symmetry. By using the properties induced by such a coalgebra…
A five-dimensional (5D) generalized G\"odel-type manifolds are examined in the light of the equivalence problem techniques, as formulated by Cartan. The necessary and sufficient conditions for local homogeneity of these 5D manifolds are…
We present a new method for classifying naturally reductive homogeneous spaces -- i.\,e.~homogeneous Riemannian manifolds admitting a metric connection with skew torsion that has parallel torsion \emph{and} curvature. This method is based…
There are three self-dual models of massive particles of helicity +2 (or -2) in $D=2+1$. Each model is of first, second, and third-order in derivatives. Here we derive a new self-dual model of fourth-order, $\cL {SD}^{(4)}$, which follows…
This article is concerned with the rigidity properties of geometric realizations of incidence geometries of rank two as points and lines in the Euclidean plane; we care about the distance being preserved among collinear points. We discuss…
In the first part of this thesis, we make use of representation theory of groups and algebras to perform an irreducible decomposition of tensors in the context of metric-affine gravity. In particular, we consider the action of the…
We investigate the Weyl tensor algebraic structure of a fully general family of D-dimensional geometries that admit a non-twisting and shear-free null vector field k. From the coordinate components of the curvature tensor we explicitly…
The paper presents a subclass of the class of MD5-algebras and MD5-groups, i.e., five dimensional solvable Lie algebras and Lie groups such that their orbits in the co-adjoint representation (K-orbit) are orbit of zero or maximal dimension.…
The purpose of this article is to analyze several Lie algebras associated to "orbit configuration spaces" obtained from a group G acting freely, and properly discontinuously on the upper 1/2-plane H^2. The Lie algebra obtained from the…
We prove that every proper connective DG-algebra $A$ admits a geometric realization (as defined by Orlov) by a smooth projective scheme with a full exceptional collection. As a corollary we obtain that $A$ is quasi-isomorphic to a finite…
The graded-fermion algebra and quasi-spin formalism are introduced and applied to obtain the $gl(m|n)\downarrow osp(m|n)$ branching rules for the "two-column" tensor irreducible representations of gl(m|n), for the case $m\leq n (n > 2)$. In…
