If G is a simple non-compact Lie group, with K its maximal compact subgroup, such that K contains a one-dimensional center C, then the coset space G/K is an Hermitian symmetric non-compact space. SL(2,R)/U(1) is the simplest example of such…
We present component and superspace formulations for the recently-proposed Type IIA* (or so-called `star') supergravity theory, which is timelike dual to the conventional Type IIB theory. First, within the component approach, all terms in…
We study $\mathbb Z_2\times\mathbb Z_2$ bi-graded Lie algebras. We describe their properties in relation to Lie superalgebras with some compatible structures. Then we focus on the approach to the Lie group--algebra correspondence based on…
For every parabolic subgroup $P$ of a Lie supergroup $G$, the homogeneous superspace $G/P$ carries a $G$-invariant supergeometry. We address the question whether $\mathfrak{g}=\text{Lie}(G)$ is the maximal supersymmetry of this…
We analyze solutions of string theory and supergravity which involve real hyperbolic spaces. Examples of string compactifications are given in terms of hyperbolic coset spaces of finite volume $\Gamma\backslash {\mathbb H}^N$, where…
In his first 1958 paper on zonal spherical functions Harish-Chandra proved an extremely delicate convergence theorem which was basic to his subsequent definition of his Schwartz space and his theory of cusp forms. This paper gives…
We present a version of higher Hochschild homology for spaces equipped with principal bundles for a structure group $G$. As coefficients, we allow $E_\infty$-algebras with $G$-action. For this homology theory, we establish an equivariant…
Let $G$ be a countable group. We introduce several equivalence relations on the set ${\rm Sub}(G)$ of subgroups of $G$, defined by properties of the quasi-regular representations $\lambda_{G/H}$ associated to $H\in {\rm Sub}(G)$ and compare…
The notion of a semitransitive binary action of a group $G$ on a topological space is introduced. A duality theorem is proved, establishing a bijective correspondence between semitransitive distributive binary $G$-spaces and topological…
We construct a Ginsburg Landau (GL) theory to study the phases of liquid, solid, superfluid, especially a possible supersolid and phase transitions among these phases in a unified framework. In this GL, we put the two competing orders…
A group pair $(G, X)$ consists of a group $G$ together with a $G$-set $X$. Such a pair encodes properties of $G$ relative to the stabilisers of points in $X$. In this paper, we show how to combine properties of group pairs and their…
We compute rationally the topological (complex) K-theory of the classifying space BG of a discrete group provided that G has a cocompact G-CW-model for its classifying space for proper G-actions. For instance word-hyperbolic groups and…
Supersolvable hyperplane arrangements and matroids are known to give rise to certain Koszul algebras, namely their Orlik-Solomon algebras and graded Varchenko-Gel'fand algebras. We explore how this interacts with group actions, particularly…
Let $K$ be the function field of a $p$-adic curve, $G$ a semisimple simply connected group over $K$ and $X$ a $G$-torsor over $K$. A conjecture of Colliot-Th\'el\`ene, Parimala and Suresh predicts that if for every discrete valuation $v$ of…
We set up foundations of representation theory over $S$, the sphere spectrum, which is the `initial ring' of stable homotopy theory. In particular, we treat $S$-Lie algebras and their representations, characters, $gl_n(S)$-Verma modules and…
Let $H$ be an ultraspherical hypergroup associated to a locally compact group $ G $ and let $A(H)$ be the Fourier algebra of $H$. For a left Banach $A(H)$-submodule $X$ of $VN(H)$, define $Q_X$ to be the norm closure of the linear span of…
In this paper we study M-theory compactifications on manifolds of G2 structure. By computing the gravitino mass term in four dimensions we derive the general form for the superpotential which appears in such compactifications and show that…
We construct a world-sheet action for Green-Schwarz superstring in terms of doubled-yet-gauged spacetime coordinates. For an arbitrarily curved NS-NS background, the action possesses $\mathbf{O}(10,10)$ T-duality,…
We study the structure of an algebraic supergroup $\mathbb{G}$ and establish the Borel-Weil theorem for $\mathbb{G}$ to give a systematic construction of all simple supermodules over an arbitrary field. Especially when $\mathbb{G}$ has a…
We prove that a compact, intrinsically symmetric submanifold of a Euclidean space is extrinsically symmetric if and only if its maximal tori are Clifford tori in the ambient space. Moreover, we show that this result can be used to give a…
