We explore to what extent the underlying variety of a connected algebraic group or the underlying manifold of a real Lie group determines its group structure.
We survey recent work on the geometry and dynamics of transverse subgroups of semi-simple Lie groups.
Let G be a connected real Lie group of dimension n. Then there exists a relatively compact open neighbourhood W of e in G such that for n+1 randomly chosen elements g_0,..,g_n the generated subgroup will be dense in G with probability one.
We introduce the theory of biset functors defined on finite categories. Previously, biset functors have been defined on groups, and in that context they are closely related to Mackey functors. Standard examples on groups include…
We study the model theory of covers of groups definable in o-minimal structures. This includes the case of covers of compact real Lie groups. In particular we study categoricity questions, pointing out some notable differences with the case…
This is a survey on left invariant semi-Riemannian metrics on compact Lie groups.
The structure of groups for which certain sets of commutator subgroups are finite is investigated, with a particular focus on the relationship between these groups and those with finite derived subgroup.
This note studies the Burnside problem for homeomorphism groups of compact connected manifolds. For surfaces, we prove that the identity component of the homeomorphism group is torsion-free precisely when the surface is not the sphere,…
Star products on the classical double group of a simple Lie group and on corresponding symplectic grupoids are given so that the quantum double and the "quantized tangent bundle" are obtained in the deformation description. "Complex"…
In this note we study the finite groups whose subgroup lattices are dismantlable.
In this paper we consider some Lie groups in complexified Clifford algebras. Using relations between operations of conjugation in Clifford algebras and matrix operations we prove isomorphisms between these groups and classical matrix groups…
In a 1969 article, A. Dress described the prime ideals of the Burnside ring of a finite group G and the inclusion relations between them. One may ask whether similar results exist for the Burnside ring of a saturated fusion system F on a…
For a saturated fusion system $\mathcal F$ on a $p$-group $S$, we study the Burnside ring of the fusion system $B(\mathcal F)$, as defined by Matthew Gelvin and Sune Reeh, which is a subring of the Burnside ring $B(S)$. We give criteria for…
We discuss the basic properties of Lie groupoids, Lie algebroids and Lie pseudo-groups in view of applying these techniques to the analysis of Jordan-H\"older resolutions and, subsequently, to the integration of partial differential…
A pointwise-elliptic subset of a topological group is one whose elements all generate relatively-compact subgroups. A connected locally compact group has a dense pointwise-elliptic subgroup if and only if it is an extension by a compact…
We show that a compact representation of a semisimple Lie group has an orthogonal decomposition into finite length representations. This generalises and simplifies a number of more special spectral theorems in the literature. We apply it to…
We describe the rings of invariants for the finite orthogonal groups of plus type in odd characteristic acting on the defining representations. We also describe the invariants of the corresponding Sylow subgroups in the defining…
The Lie-Poisson analogues of the cotangent bundle and coadjoint orbits of a Lie group are considered. For the natural Poisson brackets the symplectic leaves in these manifolds are classified and the corresponding symplectic forms are…
We define a class of quandle-like structures called pseudoquandles and analyze some of their algebraic properties.
In this article we extend the classical definitions of equivariant cohomotopy theory to the setting of proper actions of Lie groups. We combine methods originally developed in the analysis of nonlinear differential equations, mainly in…
