Over an algebraically closed base field $k$ of characteristic 2, the ring $R^G$ of invariants is studied, $G$ being the orthogonal group O(n) or the special orthogonal group SO(n) and acting naturally on the coordinate ring $R$ of the…
We classify completely prime primitive ideals whose associated varieties are the closure of the minimal nilpotent orbit of $\mathfrak{g}=\mathfrak{sl}(n,\mathbb{C})$, and classify irreducible $(\mathfrak{g},\mathfrak{k})$-modules which have…
Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a complex simple Lie algebra. A simple $\mathfrak{g}$-module is called minimal if the associated variety of its annihilator ideal coincides with the closure of the minimal nilpotent coadjoint orbit. The main result of…
Let N be a nilpotent Lie group and let S be an invariant geometric structure on N (cf. symplectic, complex or hypercomplex). We define a left invariant Riemannian metric on N compatible with S to be "minimal", if it minimizes the norm of…
Let $\mathfrak g$ be a complex simple Lie algebra and $\mathfrak n$ the nilradical of a parabolic subalgebra of $\mathfrak g$. We consider some properties of the coadjoint representation of $\mathfrak n$ and related algebras of invariants.…
Our starting point is Mumford's conjecture, on representations of Chevalley groups over fields, as it is phrased in the preface of "Geometric Invariant Theory". After extending the conjecture appropriately, we show that it holds over an…
Parabolic subalgebras $\frak{p}$ of semisimple Lie algebras define a $\Bbb{Z}$-grading of the Lie algebra. If there exists a nilpotent element in the first graded part of $\frak{g}$ on which the adjoint group of $\frak{p}$ acts with a dense…
We explicitly construct, in terms of Gelfand--Tsetlin tableaux, a new family of simple positive energy representations for the simple affine vertex algebra V_k(sl_{n+1}) in the minimal nilpotent orbit of sl_{n+1}. These representations are…
In this paper, we introduce near perfect ideals and upper bounded ideals, and study them as well as perfect ideals for finite dimensional Lie algebras. We show that the largest perfect ideal and the largest near perfect ideal of a finite…
We prove that all finite W-algebras associated with nilpotent elements e in a complex semisimple Lie algebra g have finite-dimensional representations. In order to obtain this result we establish a connection between primitive ideals of…
Let $M$ be pseudo-Riemannian homogeneous Einstein manifold of finite volume, and suppose a connected Lie group $G$ acts transitively and isometrically on $M$. In this situation, the metric on $M$ induces a bilinear form…
In this paper, we first study properties of the lower central chains for Novikov algebras. Then we show that for every Lie nilpotent Novikov algebra~$\mathcal{N}$, the ideal of~$\mathcal{N}$ generated by the set~$\{ab - ba\mid a, b\in…
Consider an arithmetic group $\mathbf{G}(O_S)$, where $\mathbf{G}$ is an affine group scheme with connected, simply connected absolutely almost simple generic fiber, defined over the ring of $S$-integers $O_S$ of a number field $K$ with…
Let $S^{\cdot}$ be a noetherian graded algebra over a commutative $k$-algebra $A$, where $k$ is a commutative ring, and assume it is a module over a Lie algebroid ${\mathfrak g}_{A/k}$. If $S^\cdot$ is semi-simple over ${\mathfrak g}_{A/k}$…
A nilsoliton is a nilpotent Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ with a metric such that $\operatorname{Ric}=\lambda \operatorname{Id}+D$, with $D$ a derivation. For indefinite metrics, this determines four different geometries, according to whether…
Let $\mathbb K$ be a field of characteristic zero, $A$ an integral domain over $\mathbb K$ with the field of fractions $R = \text{Frac}(A),$ and $\text{Der}_{\mathbb{K}}A$ the Lie algebra of all $\mathbb K$-derivations on $A$. Let…
We give a simple description of the closure of the nilpotent orbits appearing as associated varieties of admissible affine vertex algebras in terms of primitive ideals.
A new, so called odd Gel'fand-Zetlin basis is introduced for the irreducible covariant tensor representations of the Lie superalgebra gl(n|n). The related Gel'fand-Zetlin patterns are based upon the decomposition according to a particular…
We show that a C*-algebra generated by an irreducible representation of a finitely generated virtually nilpotent group satisfies the universal coefficient theorem and has real rank 0. This combines with previous joint work with Gillaspy and…
We determine the space of primary ideals in the group algebra $L^1(G)$ of a connected nilpotent Lie group by identifying for every $\pi\in\hat G $ the family ${\mathcal I}^\pi $ of primary ideals with hull $\{\pi\}$ with the family of…
