Suppose that $(G,T)$ is a second countable locally compact transformation group given by a homomorphism $\ell:G\to\Homeo(T)$, and that $A$ is a separable continuous-trace \cs-algebra with spectrum $T$. An action $\alpha:G\to\Aut(A)$ is said…
Consider a smooth, locally free, codimension-one action of a higher-rank, simple, split Lie group $G$ on a closed manifold $M$. Let $P$ be a minimal parabolic subgroup of $G$. If the action admits a $P$-invariant probability measure that is…
Let a torus $T$ act smoothly on a compact smooth manifold $M$. If the rational equivariant cohomology $H^*_T(M)$ is a free $H^*_T(pt)$-module, then according to the Chang-Skjelbred Lemma, it can be determined by the $1$-skeleton consisting…
Let $G_{2(2)}$ be the non-compact connected simple Lie group of type $G_2$ over $\mathbb{R}$, and let $M$ be a connected analytic complete pseudo-Riemannian manifold that admits an isometric $G_{2(2)}$-action with a dense orbit. For the…
In this paper we first consider the Hamiltonian action of a compact connected Lie group on an $H$-twisted generalized complex manifold $M$. Given such an action, we define generalized equivariant cohomology and generalized equivariant…
By restricting to a class of localic open groupoids $G$ which, similarly to Lie groupoids, possess appropriate covers $\widehat G\to G$ by \'etale groupoids, we extend results about groupoid actions and quantales that were previously proved…
By replacing the torus with an elementary abelian two-group, we generalize the maximal symmetry result of Grove and Searle and the half-maximal symmetry result of Wilking for positively curved manifolds with an isometric torus action.
We classify $T^2$-GKM fibrations in which both fiber and base are the GKM graph of $S^4$, with standard weights in the base. For each case in which the total space is orientable, we construct, by explicit clutching, a realization as a…
For suitable finite groups G, we construct contractible 4-manifolds C with an effective G-action on $\partial C$ whose associated pairs (C,g) for all $g \in G$ are distinct smoothings of the pair $(C,\partial C)$. Indeed C embeds in a…
Let $G$ be a countable group with no finitely generated subgroup of exponential growth. We show that every action of $G$ on a countable set preserving a linear (respectively, circular) order can be realised as the restriction of some action…
A description of transitive actions of a semisimple algebraic group G on toric varieties is obtained. Every toric variety admitting such an action lies between a product of punctured affine spaces and a product of projective spaces. The…
We present some classification results for quasitoric manifolds (M) with (p_1(M)=-\sum a_i^2) for some (a_i\in H^2(M)) which admit an action of a compact connected Lie-group (G) such that (\dim M/G \leq 1). In contrast to Kuroki's work we…
For an arbitrary compact Lie group G, we describe a model for rational G-spectra with toral geometric isotropy and show that there is a convergent Adams spectral sequence based on it. The contribution from geometric isotropy at a subgroup K…
Let R be an affine PI-algebra over an algebraically closed field k and let G be an affine algebraic k-group that acts rationally by algebra automorphisms on R. For R prime and G a torus, we show that R has only finitely many G-prime ideals…
We construct effective GKM $T^3$-actions with connected stabilizers on the total spaces of the two $S^2$-bundles over $S^6$ with identical GKM graphs. This shows that the GKM graph of a simply-connected integer GKM manifold with connected…
If $\mathcal C$ is a class of complexes closed under taking full subcomplexes and covers and $\mathcal G$ is the class of groups admitting proper and cocompact actions on one-connected complexes in $\mathcal C$, then $\mathcal G$ is closed…
For a finite dimensional Lie algebra $\g$ of vector fields on a manifold $M$ we show that $M$ can be completed to a $G$-space in a unversal way, which however is neither Hausdorff nor $T_1$ in general. Here $G$ is a connected Lie group with…
We define the notion of a holomorphic bundle on the noncommutative toric orbifold $T_{\theta}/G$ associated with an action of a finite cyclic group $G$ on an irrational rotation algebra. We prove that the category of such holomorphic…
We define the class of high dimensional graph manifolds. These are compact smooth manifolds supporting a decomposition into finitely many pieces, each of which is diffeomorphic to the product of a torus with a finite volume hyperbolic…
We construct smooth $\mathbb{C}^*$-actions on the moduli spaces of super $J$-holomorphic curves as well as super stable curves and super stable maps of genus zero and fixed tree type such that their reduced spaces are torus invariant.…
