Coxeter and Dynkin diagrams classify a wide variety of structures, most notably finite reflection groups, lattices having such groups as symmetries, compact simple Lie groups and complex simple Lie algebras. The simply laced or "ADE" Dynkin…

Given a constant skew-symmetric matrix A, it is a difficult open problem whether the associated Lotka-Volterra system is integrable or not. We solve this problem in the special case when A is a Toepliz matrix where all off-diagonal entries…

In this survey, we discuss a series of linearization problems--for Poisson structures, Lie algebroids, and Lie groupoids. The last problem involves a conjecture on the structure of proper groupoids. Attempting to prove this by the method of…

For the root system of each complex semi-simple Lie algebra of rank two, and for the associated 2D Toda chain $E=\{u_{xy}=\exp(K u)\}$, we calculate the two first integrals of the characteristic equation $D_y(w)=0$ on $E$. Using the…

We propose a new approach to building log-canonical coordinate charts for any simply-connected simple Lie group $\G$ and arbitrary Poisson-homogeneous bracket on $\G$ associated with Belavin--Drinfeld data. Given a pair of representatives…

Various features of the even order poles appearing in the S-matrices of simply-laced affine Toda field theories are analysed in some detail. In particular, the coefficients of first- and second-order singularities appearing in the Laurent…

In this paper the relation between the cluster integrable systems and $q$-difference equations is extended beyond the Painlev\'e case. We consider the class of hyperelliptic curves when the Newton polygons contain only four boundary points.…

Group based moving frames have a wide range of applications, from the classical equivalence problems in differential geometry to more modern applications such as computer vision. Here we describe what we call a discrete group based moving…

In this paper, we develop the fundamentals of Lie-Poisson theory for direct limits $G=\dirlim G_{n}$ of complex algebraic groups $G_{n}$ and their Lie algebras $\fg=\dirlim \fg_{n}$. We show that $\fg^{*}=\invlim\fg_{n}^{*}$ has the…

Poincar\'e profiles are a family of analytically defined coarse invariants, which can be used as obstructions to the existence of coarse embeddings between metric spaces. In this paper we calculate the Poincar\'e profiles of all connected…

The full Kostant--Toda hierarchy on a semisimple Lie algebra is a system of Lax equations, in which the flows are determined by the gradients of the Chevalley invariants.This paper is concerned with the full Kostant--Toda hierarchy on the…

We present two involutivity theorems in the context of Poisson quasi-Nijenhuis %(PqN) manifolds. The second one stems from recursion relations that generalize the so called Lenard-Magri relations on a bi-Hamiltonian manifold. We apply these…

We study the problem of quadruple extensions of simple Lie algebras. We find that, adding a new simple root $\alpha_{+4}$, it is not possible to have an extended Kac-Moody algebra described by a Dynkin-Kac diagram with simple links and no…

The construction of a family of real Hamiltonian forms (RHF) for the special class of affine 1+1-dimensional Toda field theories (ATFT) is reported. Thus the method, proposed in [1] for systems with finite number of degrees of freedom is…

Using a Poisson bracket representation, in 3D, of the Lie algebra $\mathfrak{sl}(2)$, we first use highest weight representations to embed this into larger Lie algebras. These are then interpreted as symmetry and conformal symmetry algebras…

In this thesis we study geometric structures from Poisson and generalized complex geometry with mild singular behavior using Lie algebroids. The process of lifting such structures to their Lie algebroid version makes them less singular, as…

The full Kostant-Toda (f-KT) lattice is a natural generalization of the classical tridiagonal Toda lattice. We study singular structure of solutions of the f-KT lattices defined on simple Lie algebras in two different ways: through the…

The Adler-Gelfand-Dikii Poisson structure arises naturally in the study of $n$-th order differential operators on the circle and plays a central role in Poisson geometry and integrable systems. Let $G$ be one of the Lie groups…
