The 2007 Midwest Geometry Conference included a panel discussion devoted to open problems and the general direction of future research in fields related to the main themes of the conference. This paper summarizes the comments made during…
These notes expand a four-hour lecture course given in Heidelberg in March 2023, as part of the "Spring School on non-Archimedean Geometry and Eigenvarieties". They are designed for graduate students and other learners. We introduce Huber…
The action of the mapping class group of a surface on the collection of homotopy classes of disjointly embedded curves or arcs in the surface is discussed here as a tool for understanding Riemann's moduli space and its topological and…
This is a semi--expository update and rewrite of my 1974 AMS AMS Memoir describing Plancherel formulae and partial Dolbeault cohomology realizations for standard tempered representations for general real reductive Lie groups. Even after so…
This book explores geometries defined by left-invariant distance functions on Lie groups, with a particular focus on nilpotent groups and Carnot groups equipped with geodesic distances. Geodesic left-invariant metrics are either…
The space of embedded submanifolds plays an important role in applications such as computational anatomy and shape analysis. We can define two different classes on Riemannian metrics on this space: so-called outer metrics are metrics that…
Irreducible sigma models, i.e. those for which the partition function does not factorise, are defined on Riemannian spaces with irreducible holonomy groups. These special geometries are characterised by the existence of covariantly constant…

In this paper, a survey of the recent results about the classification of the connected holonomy groups of the Lorentzian manifolds is given. A simplification of the construction of the Lorentzian metrics with all possible connected…
These are the notes for a minicourse held in Odessa (2016) and Belo Horizonte (2017). My aim was to provide a short introduction to basic notions of category theory and representation theory of finite-dimensional algebras. We learnt the…
Lecture notes in Russian. Topics: the Haar measure (abstract theorems and explicit descriptions for different groups), measures on infinite-dimensional spaces with large natural groups of symmetries (Gaussian measures, Poisson measures,…
In this expository note, we give a self-contained introduction to some modern incarnations of Hamiltonian reduction. Particular emphasis is placed on applications to symplectic geometry and geometric representation theory. We thereby…

This article consists of six lectures on the categorification of the Burau representation and on link homology groups which categorify the Jones and the HOMFLY-PT polynomial. The notes are based on the lecture course at the PCMI 2006 summer…
This paper advocates a novel framework for segmenting a dataset in a Riemannian manifold $M$ into clusters lying around low-dimensional submanifolds of $M$. Important examples of $M$, for which the proposed clustering algorithm is…
