Given a smooth free action of a compact connected Lie group $G$ on a smooth compact manifold $M$, we show that the space of $G$-invariant Riemannian metrics on $M$ whose automorphism group is precisely $G$ is open dense in the space of all…

The holonomy of the Bismut connection on Vaisman manifolds is studied. We prove that if $M^{2n}$ is endowed with a Vaisman structure, then the holonomy group of the Bismut connection is contained in U$(n-1)$. We compute explicitly this…

Let $G$ be a real linear reductive group and $K$ be a maximal compact subgroup. Let $P$ be a minimal parabolic subgroup of $G$ with complexified Lie algebra $\mathfrak{p}$, and $\mathfrak{n}$ be its nilradical. In this paper we show that:…

We prove that any Bernstein algebra $(A, \omega)$ is isomorphic to a semidirect product $V \ltimes_{(\cdot, \, \Omega)} \, k$ associated to a commutative algebra $(V, \cdot)$ such that $(x^2)^2 = 0$, for all $x\in A$ and an idempotent…

Let $(M^n,g)$, $n \ge 4$, be a compact simply-connected Riemannian manifold with nonnegative isotropic curvature. Given $0<l\le L$, we prove that there exists $\eps = \eps (l,L,n)$ satisfying the following: If the scalar curvature $s$ of…

Let $\Gamma_1$ and $\Gamma_2$ be Bieberbach groups contained in the full isometry group $G$ of $\mathbb{R}^n$. We prove that if the compact flat manifolds $\Gamma_1\backslash\mathbb{R}^n$ and $\Gamma_2\backslash\mathbb{R}^n$ are strongly…

We define $\Gamma_q(B,S \otimes H)$, the generalized $q$-gaussian von Neumann algebras associated to a sequence of symmetric independent copies $(\pi_j,B,A,D)$ and to a subset $1 \in S = S^* \subset A$ and, under certain assumptions, prove…

We prove that any compact homogeneous locally conformally K\"ahler manifold has parallel Lee form.

This note pertains to isometric embeddings endowed with certain geometric properties. We study two embedding problems for a Riemannian manifold $M$ which is diffeomorphic to $\RR^n$ and admits a Bieberbach group $\Gamma$ acting by…

If $G$ is a finite group or a torus, it is known that there is an isomorphism between the Grothendieck group of homotopy representations and that of generalized homotopy representations for $G$. We prove that there is such an isomorphism…

Let $\Gamma$ be the fundamental group of a compact n-dimensional riemannian manifold X of sectional curvature bounded above by -1. We suppose that $\Gamma$ is a free product of its subgroup A and B over the amalgamated subgroup C. We prove…

Suppose that $G$ is a group, $H$ and $K$ are proper isomorphic central subgroups of $G$, and $\mathfrak{G}$ is an HNN-extension of $G$ with the associated subgroups $H$ and $K$. We prove necessary and sufficient conditions for…

Let $\Gamma_G$ denote a graph associated with a group $G$. A compelling question about finite groups asks whether or not a finite group $H$ must be nilpotent provided $\Gamma_H$ is isomorphic to $\Gamma_G$ for a finite nilpotent group $G$.…

We say that a countable discrete group $\Gamma$ satisfies the invariant von Neumann subalgebras rigidity (ISR) property if every $\Gamma$- invariant von Neumann subalgebra $\mathcal{M}$ in $L(\Gamma)$ is of the form $L(\Lambda)$ for some…

We prove that, to every abstract group $G$, we can associate a sequence of graphs $\Gamma_n$ such that the automorphism group of $\Gamma_n$ is isomorphic to $G$ and the genus of $\Gamma_n$ is an unbounded function of $n$.

An isovariant map between spaces with a group action is an equivariant map which preserves isotropy groups. In this paper, we show that for a finite group $G$, the category of $G$-spaces with isovariant maps has a Quillen model structure.…

For actions with a dense orbit of a connected noncompact simple Lie group $G$, we obtain some global rigidity results when the actions preserve certain geometric structures. In particular, we prove that for a $G$-action to be equivalent to…

The canonical connection on a Riemannian almost product manifold is an analogue to the Hermitian connection on an almost Hermitian manifold. In this paper we consider the canonical connection on a class of Riemannian almost product…
