For p odd, the Lie group SO_0(p+1,p+1) has a family of unitary degenerate principal series representations realized on the space of real (p+1) by (p+1) skew symmetric matrices, similar to the Stein's complementary series for SL(2n,C) or…

We describe two geometrically meaningful compactifications of the moduli space of elliptic K3 surfaces via stable slc pairs, for two different choices of a polarizing divisor, and show that their normalizations are two different toroidal…

Let D be a central simple algebra of prime degree over a field and let E be an SL_1(D)-torsor. We determine the complete motivic decomposition of certain compactifications of E. We also compute the Chow ring of E.

Let V be a complex vector space. We propose a compactification PM(V) of the projective linear group PGL(V), which can act on the projective space P(V). After proving some properties of PM(V), we consider its relation to Neretin's…

All four dimensional orbit spaces of compact coregular linear groups have been determined. The results are obtained through the integration of a universal differential equation, that only requires as input the number of elements of an…

In this paper we present new examples of simple $p$-local compact groups for all odd primes. We also develop the necessary tools to show saturation, simpleness and the non-realizability as $p$-compact groups or compact Lie groups, which can…

The different orthogonal relationships that exists in the Lowdin orthogonalizations is presented. Other orthogonalization techniques such as polar decomposition (PD), principal component analysis (PCA) and reduced singular value…

The group PGL(2) of linear transformations of the projective line acts naturally on the d-dimensional projective space P^d parametrizing configurations (`d-tuples') of points on the line. In this note we are concerned with the orbits of…

We derive two types of linearity conditions for mapping class groups of orientable surfaces: one for once-punctured surface, and the other for closed surface, respectively. For the once-punctured case, the condition is described in terms of…

S. Axelrod and I.M. Singer constructed a compactification of the configuration space of distinct points in a Riemannian manifold V. A similar compactification for the moduli space of configurations of distinct points in the plane (mod the…

We discuss the `hd-compactification' of a semi-simple Lie group to a manifold with corners; it is the real analog of the wonderful compactification of deConcini and Procesi. There is a 1-1 correspondence between the boundary faces of the…

It is known that the hyperbolic plane admits a countable infinity of compactifications into a closed disk such that the isometric action of SL(2;R) acts analytically on the compactified space. We prove that among those compactifications,…

A curve, that is, a connected, reduced, projective scheme of dimension 1 over an algebraically closed field, admits two types of compactifications of its (generalized) Jacobian: the moduli schemes of P-quasistable torsion-free, rank-1…

The `linear orbit' of a plane curve of degree d is its orbit in P^{d(d+3)/2} under the natural action of PGL(3). We classify curves with positive dimensional stabilizer, and we compute the degree of the closure of the linear orbits of…

We study rational homology groups of one-point compactifications of spaces of complex monic polynomials with multiple roots. These spaces are indexed by number partitions. A standard reformulation in terms of quotients of orbit arrangements…

This paper presents full classification of second minimal odd periodic orbits of a continuous endomorphisms on the real line. A $(2k+1)$-periodic orbit ($k\geq 3$) is called second minimal for the map $f$, if $2k-1$ is a minimal period of…

In this paper we classify the reducible representations of compact simple Lie groups all of whose orbits are tautly embedded in Euclidean space with respect to Z_2 coefficients.

We determine when an antiinvolution on an adjoint semisimple linear algebraic group extends to an antiinvolution on a $J$-irreducible monoid. Using this information, we study a special class of compactifications of symmetric varieties.…
