Motivated by the theory of unitary representations of finite dimensional Lie supergroups, we describe those Lie superalgebras which have a faithful finite dimensional unitary representation. We call these Lie superalgebras unitary. This is…
Let G be a semisimple algebraic group over an algebraically closed field of characteristic p>0, and let g be its Lie algebra. The crucial Lie algebra representations to understand are those associated with the reduced enveloping algebra…
A metric Lie algebra g is a Lie algebra equipped with an inner product. A subalgebra h of a metric Lie algebra g is said to be totally geodesic if the Lie subgroup corresponding to h is a totally geodesic submanifold relative to the…
Given a representation V of a group G, there are two natural ways of defining a representation of the group algebra k[G] in the external power V^{\wedge m}. The set L(V) of elements of k[G] for which these two ways give the same result is a…
Left invariant affine structures in a Lie group $G$ are in one-to-one correspondence with left-symmetric algebras over its Lie algebra $\mathfrak g=T_eG$ (``over'' means that the commutator $[x,y]=xy-yx$ coincides with the Lie bracket;…
We introduce a new way to study representations of the Lie superalgebra $p(n)$. Since the center of the universal enveloping algebra $U$ acts trivially on all irreducible representations, we suggest to study the quotient algebra $\bar{U}$…
In this note we point out that the definition of the universal enveloping dialgebra for a Leibniz algebra is consistent with the interpretation of a Leibniz algebra as a generalization not of a Lie algebra, but of the adjoint representation…
Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a finite dimensional complex simple classical Lie superalgebra and $A$ be a commutative, associative algebra with unity over $\mathbb{C}$. In this paper we define an integral form for the universal enveloping algebra…
Theory of representations of F-algebra is a natural development of the theory of F-algebra. Exploring of morphisms of the representation leads to the concepts of generating set and basis of representation. In the book I considered the…
We use augmented commutative differential graded algebra (ACDGA) models to study $G$-representation varieties of fundamental groups $\pi=\pi_1(M)$ and their embedded cohomology jump loci, around the trivial representation 1. When the space…
In this paper, we give a new series of coboundary operators of Hom-Lie algebras. And prove that cohomology groups with respect to coboundary operators are isomorphic. Then, we revisit representations of Hom-Lie algebras, and generalize the…
Let G be a locally compact group, M(G) denote its measure algebra and L^1(G) denote its group algebra. Also, let pi:G->U(H) be a strongly continuous unitary representation, and let CB^{sigma}(B(H)) be the space of normal completely bounded…
These lectures given in Montreal in Summer 1997 are mainly based on, and form a condensed survey of, the book by N. Chriss and V. Ginzburg: `Representation Theory and Complex Geometry', Birkhauser 1997. Various algebras arising naturally in…
For a representation of a Lie algebra, one can construct a diagram of the representation, i. e. a directed graph with edges labeled by matrix elements of the representation. This article explains how to use these diagrams to describe normal…
We study the geometrical structure of the coadjoint orbits of an arbitrary complex or real Lie algebra ${\mathfrak g}$ containing some ideal ${\mathfrak n}$. It is shown that any coadjoint orbit in ${\mathfrak g}^*$ is a bundle with the…
We present a geometric approach to defining an algebra $\hat{\mathcal G}(M)$ (the Colombeau algebra) of generalized functions on a smooth manifold $M$ containing the space ${\mathcal D}'(M)$ of distributions on $M$. Based on differential…

We classify the finite dimensional irreducible representations of rectangular finite $W$-algebras, i.e., the finite $W$-algebras $U(\mathfrak{g}, e)$ where $\mathfrak{g}$ is a symplectic or orthogonal Lie algebra and $e \in \mathfrak{g}$ is…
