A pointwise-elliptic subset of a topological group is one whose elements all generate relatively-compact subgroups. A connected locally compact group has a dense pointwise-elliptic subgroup if and only if it is an extension by a compact…

We provide a mathematically rigorous definition of local approximation and demonstrate its applicability to some interesting classes of structures. In particular, we prove that any compact simple Lie group is locally approximated by finite…

In this article we provide a detailed description of a technique to obtain a simple parametrization for different exceptional Lie groups, such as G2, F4 and E6, based on their fibration structure. For the compact case, we construct a…

For a Poisson manifold $M$ we develop systematic methods to compute its Picard group $Pic(M)$, i.e., its group of self Morita equivalences. We establish a precise relationship between $Pic(M)$ and the group of gauge transformations up to…

In this paper, we introduce local expressions for discrete Mechanics. To apply our results simultaneously to several interesting cases, we derive these local expressions in the framework of Lie groupoids, following the program proposed by…

Stein's method is used to study the trace of a random element from a compact Lie group or symmetric space. Central limit theorems are proved using very little information: character values on a single element and the decomposition of the…

We outline a new, systematic way of constructing and analysing field theories, where all possible continuous symmetries of a given model are derived using the method of Lie point symmetries. If the model has free parameters, and…

Groupoids are mathematical structures able to describe symmetry properties more general than those described by groups. They were introduced (and named) by H. Brandt in 1926. Around 1950, Charles Ehresmann used groupoids with additional…

We develop a self-contained theory of log-Euclidean Lie groups: smooth manifolds diffeomorphic to finite-dimensional vector spaces, equipped with the pullback of a constant Euclidean metric. This framework encompasses symmetric…

Lie group theory states that knowledge of a $m$-parameters solvable group of symmetries of a system of ordinary differential equations allows to reduce by $m$ the number of equation. We apply this principle by finding dilatations and…

The connections between Euler's equations on central extensions of Lie algebras and Euler's equations on the original, extended algebras are described. A special infinite sequence of central extensions of nilpotent Lie algebras constructed…

Invariance and equivariance to geometrical transformations have proven to be very useful inductive biases when training (convolutional) neural network models, especially in the low-data regime. Much work has focused on the case where the…

This survey purports to be an elementary introduction to compactly presented groups, which are the analogue of finitely presented groups in the broader realm of locally compact groups. In particular, compact presentation is interpreted as a…

A parametrization of irreducible unitary representations associated with the regular adjoint orbits of a hyperspecial compact subgroup of a reductive group over a non-dyadic non-archimedean local filed is presented. The parametrization is…

Let X be a simply connected compact Riemannian symmetric space, let U be the universal covering group of the identity component of the isometry group of X, and let \g denote the complexification of the Lie algebra of U, \g=\u^\C. Each…

If a Lie algebra structure g on a vector space is the sum of a family of mutually compatible Lie algebra structures g_i's, we say that g is simply assembled from the g_i's. Repeating this procedure with a number of Lie algebras, themselves…

This paper is dedicated to the differential Galois theory in the complex analytic context for Lie-Vessiot systems. Those are the natural generaliza- tion of linear systems, and the more general class of differential equations adimitting…

We extend some fundamental definitions and constructions in the established generalisation of Lie theory involving Lie groupoids by reformulating them in terms of groupoids internal to a well-adapted model of synthetic differential…

Classical mechanical systems are defined by their kinetic and potential energies. They generate a Lie algebra under the canonical Poisson bracket. This Lie algebra, which is usually infinite dimensional, is useful in analyzing the system,…

A generalised notion of Kac-Moody algebra is defined using smooth maps from a compact real manifold $\mathcal{M}$ to a finite-dimensional Lie group, by means of complete orthonormal bases for a Hermitian inner product on the manifold and a…
