This note is concerned with the geometric classification of connected Lie groups of dimension three or less, endowed with left-invariant Riemannian metrics. On the one hand, assembling results from the literature, we give a review of the…
We give a classification of homogeneous Riemannian structures on (non locally symmetric) $3$-dimensional Lie groups equipped with left invariant Riemannian metrics. This work together with classifications due to previous works yields a…
We characterize the universal covering of connected analytic pseudo-Riemannian manifolds which admit a non-trivial and isometric action of the simple Lie group $SL(3,\mathbb{R})$ with a dense orbit preserving a finite volume. If such…
We consider actions of reductive complex Lie groups $G=K^C$ on K\"ahler manifolds $X$ such that the $K$--action is Hamiltonian and prove then that the closures of the $G$--orbits are complex-analytic in $X$. This is used to characterize…
The metric approach to studying 2-step nilpotent Lie algebras by making use of non-degenerate scalar products is realised. We show that any 2-step nilpotent Lie algebra is isomorphic to its standard pseudo-metric form, that is a 2-step…
We study the local symplectic algebra of parameterized curves introduced by V. I. Arnold. We use the method of algebraic restrictions to classify symplectic singularities of quasi-homogeneous curves. We prove that the space of algebraic…
Uniformly quasiconformally homogeneous domains in $\mathbb{R}^n$ carry a transitive collection of $K$-quasiconformal maps for a fixed $K\geq 1.$ In this paper, we study two questions in this setting. The first is to show that…
We investigate the classification of quasihomogeneous polynomials in two variables with real coefficients under semialgebraic bi-Lipschitz equivalence in a neighborhood of the origin in ${\mathbb R}^2$. Building on the work of Birbrair,…
We classify all transitive actions of Lie algebras of vector fields on C^3 and R^3 up to a local equivalence and discuss why this classification can not be extended in general to the solvable case. The main technical tool is the structure…
Let $X$ be an affine algebraic variety with a transitive action of the algebraic automorphism group. Suppose that $X$ is equipped with several non-degenerate fixed point free $SL_2$-actions satisfying some mild additional assumption. Then…
Lie quasi-states on a real Lie algebra are functionals which are linear on any abelian subalgebra. We show that on the symplectic Lie algebra of rank at least 3 there is only one continuous non-linear Lie quasi-state (up to a scalar factor,…
We prove that if $G$ is a non-uniform lattice in a rank-one semi-simple Lie group $\ne Isom(\H^2_\R)$ then $G$ is quasi-isometrically co-Hopf. This means that every quasi-isometric embedding $G\to G$ is coarsely onto and thus is a…
We define naturally Hermite-Lorentz metrics on almost-complex manifolds as special case of pseudo-Riemannian metrics compatible with the almost complex structure. We study their isometry groups.
For a closed cocompact subgroup $\Gamma$ of a locally compact group $G$, given a compact abelian subgroup $K$ of $G$ and a homomorphism $\rho:\hat{K}\to G$ satisfying certain conditions, Landstad and Raeburn constructed equivariant…
We investigate harmonic forms of geometrically formal metrics, which are defined as those having the exterior product of any two harmonic forms still harmonic. We prove that a formal Sasakian metric can exist only on a real cohomology…
By applying holomorphic motions, we prove that a parabolic germ is quasiconformally rigid, that is, any two topologically conjugate parabolic germs are quasiconformally conjugate and the conjugacy can be chosen to be more and more near…
Let $G$ and $G'$ be simple Lie groups of equal real rank and real rank at least $2$. Let $\Gamma <G$ and $\Lambda < G'$ be non-uniform lattices. We prove a theorem that often implies that any quasi-isometric embedding of $\Gamma$ into…
We classify polar isometric actions on simply connected 3-dimensional Riemannian homogeneous spaces, up to orbit equivalence. In particular, we classify extrinsically homogeneous surfaces in such spaces and study the geometry of the orbit…
We observe that a function on a group equipped with a bi-invariant word metric is Lipschitz if and only if it is a partial quasimorphism bounded on the generating set. We also show that an undistorted element is always detected by an…
We classify finite dimensional $H_{m^2}(\zeta)$-simple $H_{m^2}(\zeta)$-module Lie algebras $L$ over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $0$ where $H_{m^2}(\zeta)$ is the $m$th Taft algebra. As an application, we show that…
