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…
Let $M$ be pseudo-Riemannian homogeneous Einstein manifold of finite volume, and suppose a connected Lie group $G$ acts transitively and isometrically on $M$. In this situation, the metric on $M$ induces a bilinear form…
The Oscillator Groups,$\G_\lambda,$ are the only solvable, non commutative, simply connected Lie groups to admit a Lorentzian bi-invariant metric. For these groups, we give sufficient conditions for a left-invariant pseudo-Riemannian metric…

Let $k$ be a field of any characteristic, $V$ a finite-dimensional vector space over $k$, and $S^d(V^*)$ be the $d$-th symmetric power of the dual space $V^*$. Given a linear map $\varphi$ on $V$ and an eigenvector $w$ of $\varphi$, we…
We give a positive answer to the Berry-Robbins problem for any compact Lie group G, i.e. we show the existence of a smooth W-equivariant map from the space of regular triples in a Cartan subalgebra to the flag manifold G/T. This map is…
Let $M$ be a compact smooth manifold of dimension $m$ (without boundary) and $G$ be a finite-dimensional Lie group, with Lie algebra $g$. Let $H^{>m/2}(M,G)$ be the group of all mappings $\gamma\colon M\to G$ which are $H^s$ for some…
A linear connection on a Lie algebroid is called a Cartan connection if it is suitably compatible with the Lie algebroid structure. Here we show that a smooth connected manifold $M$ is locally homogeneous - i.e., admits an atlas of charts…
Third-order ordinary differential equations with Lie symmetry algebras isomorphic to the nonsolvable algebra $\mathfrak{sl}(2,\mathbb{R})$ admit solvable structures. These solvable structures can be constructed by using the basis elements…
The goal of this paper is to study the geometry of the connected unit component of the real general linear Lie group $4$ dimensional $G_0$ as a Lorentzian and flat affine manifold. As the group $G_0$ is naturally equipped with a…
In this note, we use give some algebraic applications of a previous result by the author which compares the deformations parameterized by the Maurer-Cartan elements of a differential graded Lie algebra, and a differential graded Lie…
A flat solvmanifold is a compact quotient $\Gamma\backslash G$ where $G$ is a simply-connected solvable Lie group endowed with a flat left invariant metric and $\Gamma$ is a lattice of $G$. Any such Lie group can be written as…
We establish new strong factorization properties for the smooth vectors of representations of exponential solvable Lie groups on Fr\'{e}chet spaces. In particular, our results improve upon the Dixmier-Malliavin factorization theorem for…
We study deformations of orbit closures for the action of a connected semisimple group $G$ on its Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$, especially when $G$ is the special linear group. The tools we use are on the one hand the invariant Hilbert scheme…
In this work we generalize the concept of product by generators to the class of solvable Lie algebras. We analyze the number of invariants by the coadjoint representation by means of Maurer-Cartan equations and give some applications to…
In this paper we try to generalize the Haefliger theorem on completly solvable Lie foliations. We prove that: every completely solvable Lie foliation on a compact manifold is the inverse image of a homogenus foliation. Every manifold in…
We define a solvable extension of the graph 2-step nilpotent Lie algebras of [5] by adding elements corresponding to the 3-cliques of the graph. We study some of their basic properties and we prove that two such Lie algebras are isomorphic…

It is shown that there are nonlinear sigma models which are Darboux integrable and possess a solvable Vessiot group in addition to those whose Vessiot groups are central extensions of semi-simple Lie groups. They govern harmonic maps…
We prove that if a connected and simply connected Lie group $G$ admits connected closed normal subgroups $G_1\subseteq G_2\subseteq \cdots \subseteq G_m=G$ with $\dim G_j=j$ for $j=1,\dots,m$, then its group $C^*$-algebra has closed…
