We prove that Ad-semisimple conjugacy classes in a connected Lie group $G$ are closed embedded submanifolds of $G$. We also prove that if $\alpha:H\to G$ is a homomorphism of connected Lie groups such that the kernel of $\alpha$ is discrete…
We study the space of closed anti-invariant forms on an almost complex manifold, possibly non compact. We construct families of (non integrable) almost complex structures on $\R^4$, such that the space of closed $J$-anti-invariant forms is…
On a 4-dimensional compact symplectic manifold, we consider a smooth family of compatible almost-complex structures such that at time zero the induced metric is Hermite-Einstein almost-K\"ahler metric with zero or negative Hermitian scalar…
We study Lie algebras admitting para-K\"ahler and hyper-para-K\"ahler structures. We give new characterizations of these Lie algebras and we develop many methods to build large classes of examples. Bai considered para-K\"ahler Lie algebras…
The study of quasi-K\"ahler Chern-flat almost Hermitian manifolds is strictly related to the study of anti-bi-invariant almost complex Lie algebras. In the present paper we show that quasi-K\"ahler Chern-flat almost Hermitian structures on…
Homogeneous compatible almost complex structures on symplectic manifolds are studied, focusing on those which are special, meaning that their Chern-Ricci form is a multiple of the symplectic form. Non Chern-Ricci flat ones are proven to be…
This paper is devoted to the construction of a hyperkaehler structure on the complexification of any Hermitian-symmetric affine coadjoint orbit O of a semi-simple L*-group of compact type, which is compatible with the complex symplectic…
A taming symplectic structure provides an upper bound on the area of an approximately pseudoholomorphic curve in terms of its homology class. We prove that, conversely, an almost complex manifold with such an area bound admits a taming…
The space of realizations of a finite-dimensional Lie algebra by first order differential operators is naturally isomorphic to H^1 with coefficients in the module of functions. The condition that a realization admits a finite-dimensional…
For a finite dimensional Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$, the Duflo map $S\mathfrak{g}\rightarrow U\mathfrak{g}$ defines an isomorphism of $\mathfrak{g}$-modules. On $\mathfrak{g}$-invariant elements it gives an isomorphism of algebras.…
We study the representation theory of the infinite type A Hecke algebra over a non-archimedean field in the case where the parameter is a pseudo-uniformizer. Specifically, we consider a family of representations, called almost-symmetric,…
Each choice of a K\"ahler class on a compact complex manifold defines an action of the Lie algebra $\slt$ on its total complex cohomology. If a nonempty set of such K\"ahler classes is given, then we prove that the corresponding…
We classify invariant almost complex structures on homogeneous manifolds of dimension 6 with semi-simple isotropy. Those with non-degenerate Nijenhuis tensor have the automorphism group of dimension either 14 or 9. An invariant almost…
Let M be an almost complex manifold equipped with a Hermitian form such that its de Rham differential has Hodge type (3,0)+(0,3), for example a nearly Kahler manifold. We prove that any connected component of the moduli space of…
We extend results of Looijenga--Lunts and Verbitsky and show that the total Lie algebra $\mathfrak g$ for the intersection cohomology of a primitive symplectic variety $X$ with isolated singularities is isomorphic to $$\mathfrak g \cong…
The object of investigations are almost hypercomplex structures with Hermitian-Norden metrics on 4-dimensional Lie groups considered as smooth manifolds. There are studied both the basic classes of a classification of 4-dimensional…
An {\em almost p-K\"ahler manifold} is a triple $(M,J,\Omega)$, where $(M,J)$ is an almost complex manifold of real dimension $2n$ and $\Omega$ is a closed real tranverse $(p,p)$-form on $(M,J)$, where $1\leq p\leq n$. When $J$ is…
Let $G$ be a simple complex Lie group, $\alg{g}$ be its Lie algebra, $K$ be a maximal compact form of $G$ and $\alg{k}$ be a Lie algebra of $K$. We denote by $X\rightarrow \overline{X}$ the anti-involution of $\alg{g}$ which singles out the…
On $4$-symmetric symplectic spaces, invariant almost complex structures -- up to sign -- arise in pairs. We exhibit some $4$-symmetric symplectic spaces, with a pair of "natural" compatible (usually not positive) invariant almost complex…
A simple Almost-Riemmanian Structure on a Lie group G is defined by a linear vector field and dim(G)-1 left-invariant ones. We state results about the singular locus, the abnormal extremals and the desingularization of such ARS's, and these…
