Given any representation V of a complex linear reductive Lie group G_0, we show that a larger semi-simple Lie group G with g=g_0 + V + V* + ..., exists precisely when V has a finite number of G_0-orbits. In particular, V admits an open…

We give a systematic treatment of the stability theory for action of a real reductive Lie group G on a topological space. More precisely, we introduce an abstract setting for actions of non-compact real reductive Lie groups on topological…

The Grothendieck-Serre conjecture predicts that every generically trivial torsor under a reductive group $G$ over a regular semilocal ring $R$ is trivial. We establish this for unramified $R$ granted that $G^{\mathrm{ad}}$ is totally…

We study linear actions of algebraic groups on smooth projective varieties X. A guiding goal for us is to understand the cohomology of "quotients" under such actions, by generalizing (from reductive to non-reductive group actions) existing…

In this paper, we study the action of non abelian group G generated by affine homotheties on R^n. We prove that G satisfies one of the following properties: (i) there exist a subgroup F_{G} of R\{0} containing 0 in its closure, a…

It is proved that g-rationality of a vertex operator superalgebra V=V_{\bar0}+V_{\bar1} for all g in G imply rationality of V^G, and also imply that each irreducible V^G-module is a submodule of an irreducible g-twisted V-module for some g…

Let $G=G(K)$ be a simple algebraic group defined over an algebraically closed field $K$ of characteristic $p>0$. A subgroup $X$ of $G$ is said to be $G$-completely reducible if, whenever it is contained in a parabolic subgroup of $G$, it is…
