The Euler-Poincar\'e characteristic of a finite-dimensional Lie algebra vanishes. If we want to extend this result to Lie superalgebras, we should deal with infinite sums. We observe that a suitable method of summation, which goes back to…

We define and analyze various generalizations of the punctual Hilbert scheme of the plane, associated to complex or real Lie algebras. Out of these, we construct new geometric structures on surfaces whose moduli spaces share multiple…

We construct natural selfmaps of compact cohomgeneity one manifolds with finite Weyl group and compute their degrees and Lefschetz numbers. On manifolds with simple cohomology rings this yields in certain cases relations between the order…

Let E be an elliptic curve defined over a number field F, and let p be a prime >= 5. In this paper we study the structure of the Selmer group of E over p-adic Lie extensions $F_\infty$ of F. In particular, under certain global and local…

We investigate compact Kahler manifolds, which are acted on by a semisimple compact Lie group G of isometries with one hypersurface orbit. In case of ordinary action and projectable complex structure, we set up a one to one correspondence…

In this paper, we construct, for some $2$-groups $G$, explicit Galois extensions $E/\mathbb{Q}(T)$ of group $G$ with $E\cap\overline{\mathbb{Q}}=\mathbb{Q}$. We also provide explicit arithmetic progressions of integers $t_0$ such that the…

We prove continuity results for abstract epimorphisms of locally compact groups onto finitely generated groups.

In this paper, Lie symmetry group method is applied to find the lie point symmetries group of a PDE system that is determined general form of four-dimensional Einstein Walker manifold. Also we will construct the optimal system of…

Using $E_8$ bundles, we construct some modular forms over $SL(2,{\bf Z})$, $\Gamma^0(2)$ and $\Gamma_0(2)$. By these modular forms, we get some new anomaly cancellation formulas of characteristic forms.

We give local descriptions of parabolic contact structures and show how their flat models yield explicit PDE having symmetry algebras isomorphic to all complex simple Lie algebras except $\mathfrak{sl}_2$. This yields a remarkably uniform…

We introduce a remarkable subset "the stem" of the set of positive roots of a reduced root system. The stem determines several interesting decompositions of the corresponding reductive Lie algebra. It gives also a nice simple three…

We revisit the results on admissible transformations between normal linear systems of second-order ordinary differential equations with an arbitrary number of dependent variables under several appropriate gauges of the arbitrary elements…

We introduce the notion of Lie algebras with plus-minus pairs as well as regular plus-minus pairs. These notions deal with certain factorizations in universal enveloping algebras. We show that many important Lie algebras have such pairs and…

Over the past three decades, there have been several attempts to characterize modules over affine Lie superalgebras. One of the main issues in this regard is dealing with zero-level modules. In this paper, we study these modules and…

Using Lie groups with left-invariant complex structure, we construct new examples of compact complex manifolds with flat affine structure in arbitrarly high dimensions. In the 2-dimensional case, we retrieve the Inoue surfaces $S^+$.

We describe a new method to formulate classical Lagrangian mechanics on a finite-dimensional Lie group. This new approach is much more pedagogical than many previous treatments of the subject, and it directly introduces students to…

In this thesis we study algebraic structures in M-theory, in particular the exceptional Lie algebras arising in dimensional reduction of its low energy limit, eleven-dimensional supergravity. We focus on e8 and its infinite-dimensional…

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…

We present the subalgebra structure of sl(3,O), a particular real form of e6 chosen for its relevance to particle physics and its close relation to generalized Lorentz groups. We use an explicit representation of the Lie group SL(3,O) to…

A model of 3-dimensional topological quantum field theory is rigorously constructed. The results are applied to an explicit formula for deformation quantization of any finite-dimensional Lie bialgebra over the field of complex numbers. This…
