We develop a Chern-Weil theory for compact Lie group action whose generic stabilizers are finite in the framework of equivariant cohomology. This provides a method of changing an equivariant closed form within its cohomological class to a…

Consider a decomposition $\mathfrak{n} = \mathfrak{n}_1 \oplus \cdots \oplus \mathfrak{n}_r$ of the positive nilradical of a complex semisimple Lie algebra of rank $r$, where each $\mathfrak{n}_k$ is a module under an appropriate Levi…

I show that the classical Toda models built on superalgebras, and obtained from a reduction with respect to an $Sl(2)$ algebra, are "linearly supersymmetrizable" (by adding spin 1/2 fields) if and only if the $Sl(2)$ is the bosonic part of…

We construct a Dirac operator on the quantum sphere $S^2_q$ which is covariant under the action of $SU_q(2)$. It reduces to Watamuras' Dirac operator on the fuzzy sphere when $q\to 1$. We argue that our Dirac operator may be useful in…

We study one and two parameter quantizations of the function algebra on a semisimple orbit in the coadjoint representation of a simple Lie group subject to the condition that the multiplication on the quantized algebra is invariant under…

The concept of conformally equivariant quantizations was introduced by Duval, Lecomte and Ovsienko in \cite{DLO} for manifolds endowed with flat conformal structures. They obtained results of existence and uniqueness (up to normalization)…

We introduce a variant of the much-studied $Lie$ representation of the symmetric group $S_n$, which we denote by $Lie_n^{(2)}.$ Our variant gives rise to a decomposition of the regular representation as a sum of {exterior} powers of modules…

The Racah problem for the quantum superalgebra $\mathfrak{osp}_{q}(1|2)$ is considered. The intermediate Casimir operators are shown to realize a $q$-deformation of the Bannai-Ito algebra. The Racah coefficients of $\mathfrak{osp}_q(1|2)$…

An analogue of the Holstein-Primakoff and of the Dyson realization for the Lie superalgebra $sl(1/n)$ is written down. The expressions are formally the same as for the Lie algebra $sl(n+1)$, however in the latter the Bose operators have to…

We formulate the notion of equivariance of an operator with respect to a covariant representation of a C^*-dynamical system. We then use a combinatorial technique used by the authors earlier in characterizing spectral triples for SU_q(2) to…

We describe explicitly Lie superalgebra isomorphisms between the Lie superalgebras of first-order superdifferential operators on supermanifolds, showing in particular that any such isomorphism induces a diffeomorphism of the supermanifolds.…

Let M be a manifold with an action of a Lie group G, $\A$ the function algebra on M. The first problem we consider is to construct a $U_h(\g)$ invariant quantization, $\A_h$, of $\A$, where $U_h(\g)$ is a quantum group corresponding to G.…

In this paper, we introduce a quantum version of the wonderful compactification of a group as a certain noncommutative projective scheme. Our approach stems from the fact that the wonderful compactification encodes the asymptotics of matrix…

Let $\mathfrak q=Lie Q$ be an algebraic Lie algebra of index 1, i.e., a generic $Q$-orbit on $\mathfrak q^*$ has codimension 1. We show that the following conditions are equivalent: $\mathfrak q$ is contact; a generic $Q$-orbit on…

All finite dimensional irreducible representations of the simple Lie-Kac super algebra SU(2/1) are explicitly constructed in the Chevalley basis as complex matrices. For typical representations, the distinguished Dynkin label is not…

A unitary orthosymplectic quantum supergroup is introduced. Two covariant differential calculi on the quantum superspace $SP_q^{1|2}$ are presented. The $h$-deformed symplectic superspaces via a contraction of the $q$-deformed symplectic…

We consider the $osp(1|2)$-invariant bilinear operations on weighted densities on the supercircle $S^{1|1}$ called the supertransvectants. These operations are analogues of the famous Gordan transvectants (or Rankin-Cohen brackets). We…

The existence of a natural and projectively equivariant quantization in the sense of Lecomte [20] was proved recently by M. Bordemann [4], using the framework of Thomas-Whitehead connections. We give a new proof of existence using the…

We compute the first cohomology of the ortosymplectic Lie superalgebra $\mathfrak{osp}(1|2)$ on the (1,1)-dimensional real superspace with coefficients in the superspace $\frak{D}_{\lambda,\nu;\mu}$ of bilinear differential operators acting…

We analyse the Witten-Woronowicz's type deformations of the Lie superalgebras spl(N,1) and obtain deformations parametrized by N(N-1)/2 independent parameters for N>2 and by three parameters for N=2. For some of these algebras, finite…
