Let $D \subseteq A$ be a quasi-Cartan pair of algebras. Then there exists a unique discrete groupoid twist $\Sigma \to G$ whose twisted Steinberg algebra is isomorphic to $A$ in a way that preserves $D$. In this paper, we show there is a…
In this paper we study Cartan subalgebras in general and special linear algebras over a field of positive characteristic. We determined the conjugacy classes of Cartan subalgebras under the general linear groups, and count the explicit…
An argument of A.Borel shows that every compact connected Lie group is homeomorphic to the Cartesian product of its derived subgroup and a torus. We prove a parallel result for definably compact definably connected groups definable in an…
We study definably compact definably connected groups definable in a sufficiently saturated real closed field $R$. We introduce the notion of group-generic point for $\bigvee$-definable groups and show the existence of group-generic points…
Dense pairs of geometric topological fields have tame open core, that is, every definable open subset in the pair is already definable in the reduct. We fix a minor gap in the published version of van den Dries's seminal work on dense pairs…
We describe simply connected compact exceptional simple Lie groups in very elementary way. We first construct all simply connected compact exceptional Lie groups G concretely. Next, we find all involutive automorphisms of G, and determine…
The kernel of the natural projection of a graph product of groups onto their direct product is called the Cartesian subgroup of the graph product. This construction generalises commutator subgroups of right-angled Coxeter and Artin groups.…
Attached to any reductive Lie group $G$ is a "Cartan motion group" $G_0$ $-$ a Lie group with the same dimension as $G$, but a simpler group structure. A natural one-to-one correspondence between the irreducible tempered representations of…
We use the structure lattice, introduced in Part I, to undertake a systematic study of the class $\mathscr S$ consisting of compactly generated, topologically simple, totally disconnected locally compact groups that are non-discrete. Given…
Renault proved in 2008 that if $G$ is a topologically principal groupoid, then $C_0(G^{(0)})$ is a Cartan subalgebra in $C^*_r(G, \Sigma)$ for any twist $\Sigma$ over $G$. However, there are many groupoids which are not topologically…
A geometrisation scheme internal to the category of Lie supergroups is discussed for the supersymmetric de Rham cocycles on the super-Minkowski group $\,\mathbb{T}\,$ which determine the standard super-$p$-brane dynamics with that target,…
Let $\mathcal M$ be a weakly o-minimal non-valuational structure, and $\mathcal N$ its canonical o-minimal extension (by Wencel). We prove that every group $G$ definable in $\mathcal M$ is a subgroup of a group $K$ definable in $\mathcal…
We introduce a unified theory of Cartan subgroups and maximal toroids - defined as connected multiplicative type subgroups that are maximal amongst all such subgroups - which holds for all affine algebraic groups over a field, regardless of…
We completely classify Cartan subalgebras of dimension drop algebras with coprime parameters. More generally, we classify Cartan subalgebras of arbitrary stabilised dimension drop algebras that are non-degenerate in the sense that the…
In the present work the properties of Cartan subalgebras and their connection with regular elements in finite dimensional Lie algebras are extended to the case of Leibniz algebras. It is shown that Cartan subalgebras and regular elements of…
Let g be a semisimple Lie algebra over the real numbers. We describe an explicit combinatorial construction of the real Weyl group of g with respect to a given Cartan subalgebra. An efficient computation of this Weyl group is important for…
Let R be a sufficiently saturated o-minimal expansion of a real closed field, let O be the convex hull of the rationals in R, and let st: O^n \to \mathbb{R}^n be the standard part map. For X \subseteq R^n define st(X):=st(X \cap O^n). We…
Finite dimensional modular Lie superalgebras over algebraically closed fields with indecomposable Cartan matrices are classified under some technical, most probably inessential, hypotheses. If the Cartan matrix is invertible, the…
For a finite group $G$, let $\sigma(G)$ be the number of subgroups of $G$ and $\sigma_\iota(G)$ the number of isomorphism types of subgroups of $G$. Let $L=L_r(p^e)$ denote a simple group of Lie type, rank $r$, over a field of order $p^e$…
We initiate the study of Cartan subalgebras in C*-algebras, with a particular focus on existence and uniqueness questions. For homogeneous C*-algebras, these questions can be analysed systematically using the theory of fibre bundles. For…
