We consider a manifold X obtained by a Kahler reduction of C^n, and we define its hyperkahler analogue M as a hyperkahler reduction of T^*C^n = H^n by the same group. In the case where the group is abelian and X is a smooth toric variety, M…

We study non-trivial deformations of the natural action of the Lie superalgebra $mathcalK(1)$ of contact vector fields on the (1,1)-dimensional superspace $mathbbR^{1|1}$ of th espace of symbols. We calculate obstructions for integrability…
This work deals with the structure of the isometry group of pseudo-Riemannian 2-step nilmanifolds. We study the action by isometries of several groups and we construct examples showing substantial differences with the Riemannain situation;…
We revise the symmetries of the Zernike polynomials that determine the Lie algebra su(1,1) + su(1,1). We show how they induce discrete as well continuous bases that coexist in the framework of rigged Hilbert spaces. We also discuss some…
We construct explicit complex structures and transversely K\"ahler holomorphic foliations on $SU(3)$ corresponding to variations of real quadratic equations on a complex quadric in $\mathbb{C}^{6}$ as generalizations of left-invariant…
We study the effective action of the heterotic string compactified on particular half-flat manifolds which arise in the context of mirror symmetry with NS-NS flux. We explicitly derive the superpotential and Kahler potential at lowest order…
Let $G$ be a semisimple, simply connected, algebraic group over an algebraically closed field $k$ with Lie algebra $\frak g$. We study the spaces of parahoric subalgebras of a given type containing a fixed nil-elliptic element of $\frak…
Questions of the following sort are addressed: Does a given Lie group or Lie algebra act effectively on a given manifold? How smooth can such actions be? What fxed-point sets are possible? What happens under perturbations? Old results are…
We introduce the notion of compatible actions in the context of split extensions of finite dimensional Lie algebras over a field. Using compatible actions, we construct a new resolution to compute the cohomology of semi-direct products of…
We give a classification of all non-symplectic automorphisms of prime order p acting on irreducible holomorphic symplectic fourfolds deformation equivalent to the Hilbert scheme of two points on a K3 surface, for p=2,3 and 7\leq p \leq 19.…
A Riemannian manifold endowed with $k>2$ orthogonal complementary distributions (called here a Riemannian almost $k$-product structure) appears in such topics as multiply warped products, the webs composed of several foliations, and proper…
We provide a new general scheme for the geometric quantisation of $\operatorname{Sp}(1)$-symmetric hyper-K\"ahler manifolds, considering Hilbert spaces of holomorphic sections with respect to the complex structures in the hyper-K\"ahler…
We study a type of left-invariant structure on Lie groups, or equivalently on Lie algebras. We introduce obstructions to the existence of a hypo structure, namely the 5-dimensional geometry of hypersurfaces in manifolds with holonomy SU(3).…
The holonomy algebra of a pseudo-hyper-K\"ahlerian manifold of signature $(4,4n+4)$ is a subalgebra of $\sp(1,n+1)$. Possible holonomy algebras of these manifolds are classified. Using this, a new proof of the classification of simply…
We study isometric Lie group actions on symmetric spaces admitting a section, i.e. a submanifold which meets all orbits orthogonally at every intersection point. We classify such actions on the compact symmetric spaces with simple isometry…
Let n>1 and G be the group SU(n) or Sp(n). This paper constructs compact symplectic manifolds whose symplectic quotient under a Hamiltonian G-action does not inherit the strong Lefschetz property.
We complete the classification of order $5$ nonsymplectic automorphisms on hyper-K\"ahler fourfolds deformation equivalent to the Hilbert square of a K3 surface. We then compute the topological Lefschetz number of natural automorphisms of…
Based on the representation of a set of canonical operators on the lattice $h\mathbb{Z}^n$, which are Clifford-vector-valued, we will introduce new families of special functions of hypercomplex variable possessing $\mathfrak{su}(1,1)$…
In this paper we study Zimmer's conjecture for $C^1$ actions of lattice subgroup of a higher-rank simple Lie group with finite center on compact manifolds. We show that when the rank of an uniform lattice is larger than the dimension of the…
