The question studied here is the behavior of the Poisson bracket under C^0-perturbations. In this purpose, we introduce the notion of pseudo-representation and prove that for a normed Lie algebra, it converges to a representation. An…

Poisson brackets provide the mathematical structure required to identify the reversible contribution to dynamic phenomena in nonequilibrium thermodynamics. This mathematical structure is deeply linked to Lie groups and their Lie algebras.…

Let $a$ and $b$ be two positive integers such that $a, b < n$. We denote the inclusion $\Sigma \mathbb{C}P^a\rightarrow SU(n)$ by $\varepsilon_{a,n}$. Also, let $m$ and $n$ be two positive integers such that $m < n$. This article has two…

The modular group algebra of an elementary abelian p-group is isomorphic to the restricted enveloping algebra of commutative restricted Lie algebra. The different ways of regarding this algebra result in different Hopf algebra structures…

We define \emph{piecewise rank 1} manifolds, which are aspherical manifolds that generally do not admit a nonpositively curved metric but can be decomposed into pieces that are diffeomorphic to finite volume, irreducible, locally symmetric,…

We develop a method for studying the pointed loop space of general polyhedral products, showing that many properties are determined by the moment-angle complex. To apply the method, we show that localised away from a finite set of primes,…

We introduce the non-abelian tensor product of Lie superalgebras, study some of its properties including nilpotency, solvability and Engel, and we use it to describe the universal central extensions of Lie superalgebras. We present the…

We present a contribution to the structure theory of locally compact groups. The emphasis is on compactly generated locally compact groups which admit no infinite discrete quotient. It is shown that such a group possesses a characteristic…

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 identify the cohomology of the stable classifying space of homotopy automorphisms (relative to an embedded disk) of connected sums of $S^k \times S^l$, where $3 \le k < l \le 2k - 2$. The result is expressed in terms of Lie graph complex…

Let $G$ be any group and $A$ be an arbitrary subset of $G$ (not necessarily symmetric and not necessarily containing the identity). The $h$-fold product set of $A$ is defined as $$A^{h} :=\lbrace a_{1}.a_{2}...a_{h} : a_{1},\ldots,a_n \in A…

The holomorph of a discrete group $G$ is the universal semi-direct product of $G$. In chapter 1 we describe why it is an interesting object and state main results. In chapter 2 we recall the classical definition of the holomorph as well as…

The theory of p-local compact groups, developed in an earlier paper by the same authors, is designed to give a unified framework in which to study the p-local homotopy theory of classifying spaces of compact Lie groups and p-compact groups,…

We consider the hidden subgroup problem on the semi-direct product of cyclic groups $\Z_{N}\rtimes\Z_{p}$ with some restriction on $N$ and $p$. By using the homomorphic properties, we present a class of semi-direct product groups in which…

In this note, we formulate an observation that "almost all" irreducible ordinary characters of finite groups of Lie type remain irreducible when restricted to the derived subgroups. To see this, key ingredients are some asymptotic results…

Groups preserving a distributive product are encountered often in algebra. Examples include automorphism groups of associative and nonassociative rings, classical groups, and automorphism groups of p-groups. While the great variety of such…

Let (S,F,L) be a p-local compact group. We prove that the (uncompleted) homotopy type of the nerve of the linking system L is determined by the collection of subgroups of S that are F-centric and F-radical. This result generalizes the…

We show that a compactly generated locally compact group of polynomial growth having no non-trivial compact normal subgroups can be embedded as a co-compact subgroup into a semidirect product of a connected, simply connected, nilpotent Lie…

Given two convex polytopes, the join, the cartesian product and the direct sum of them are well understood. In this paper we extend these three kinds of products to abstract polytopes and introduce a new product, called the topological…

It is proved that for a product action of $(\mathbb Z_p)^k$ on a product of (mod p) homology spheres $N^{n_1}\times...\times N^{n_k}$, where all $n_i$'s are assumed to be odd if $p$ is odd, and any continuous map $f\colon…
