For a connected linear algebraic group $G$ defined over $\mathbb{R}$, we compute the component group $\pi_0G(\mathbb{R})$ of the real Lie group $G(\mathbb{R})$ in terms of a maximal split torus $T_{\text{s}}\subseteq G$. In particular, we…

A II$_1$ factor $M$ has the {\it stable single generation} ({\it SSG}) property if any amplification $M^t$, $t>0$, can be generated as a von Neumann algebra by a single element. We discuss a conjecture stating that if $M$ is SSG, then $M$…

Let $\mathfrak{g} = \mathfrak{k} \oplus \mathfrak{p}$ be the Cartan decomposition of the complexified Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}=\mathfrak{sl}(3,\mathbb{C})$ of the group $G=SU(2,1)$. Let $K=S(U(2) \times U(1))$; so $K$ is a maximal compact…

The solution of many physical evolution equations can be expressed as an exponential of two or more operators acting on initial data. Accurate solutions can be systematically derived by decomposing the exponential in a product form. For…

The unitary operators U(t), describing the quantum time evolution of systems with a time-dependent Hamiltonian, can be constructed in an explicit manner using the method of time-dependent invariants. We clarify the role of Lie-algebraic…

We describe simply connected compact exceptional simple Lie groups in very elementary way. We first construct all simply connected compact exceptional Lie groups G concretely. Next, we find all involutive automorphisms of G, and determine…

The left-invariant sub-Riemannian problem on the Engel group is considered. The problem gives the nilpotent approximation to generic nonholonomic systems in four-dimensional space with two-dimensional control, for instance to a system which…

We deconstruct the non-supersymmetric SU(5) breaking by discrete symmetry on the space-time $M^4\times S^1$ and $M^4\times S^1/(Z_2\times Z_2')$ in the Higgs mechanism deconstruction scenario. And we explain the subtle point on how to…

To follow up on the results of [1], we propose a computationally efficient explicit cyclic decomposition of the maximal tori in the groups $SL_n(q)$ and $SU_n(q)$ and their projective images. We also derive some corollaries to simplify…

We give a constructive account of the fundamental ingredients of Poisson Lie theory as the basis for a description of the classical double group $D$. The double of a group $G$ has a pointwise decomposition $D\sim G\times G^*$, where $G$ and…
