First, I construct an isomorphism between the categories of (topological) groups of nilpotency class 2 with 2-divisible center and (topological) Lie rings of nilpotency class 2 with 2-divisible center. That isomorphism allows us to…
We give the number of nilpotent orbits in the Lie algebras of orthogonal groups under the adjoint action of the groups over $\tF_{2^n}$. Let $G$ be an adjoint algebraic group of type $B,C$ or $D$ defined over an algebraically closed field…
Let G be a simple, simply-connected algebraic group over the complex numbers with Lie algebra $\mathfrak g$. The main result of this article is a proof that each irreducible representation of the fundamental group of the orbit O through a…
Following a general method proposed earlier, we construct here Wigner functions defined on coadjoint orbits of a class of semidirect product groups. The groups in question are such that their unitary duals consist purely of representations…
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…
This expository article is an introduction to the adjoint orbits of complex semisimple groups, primarily in the algebro-geometric and Lie-theoretic contexts, and with a pronounced emphasis on the properties of semisimple and nilpotent…
Let $U_\hbar\mathfrak{g}$ denote the Drinfeld-Jimbo quantum group associated to a complex semisimple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$. We apply a modification of the $R$-matrix construction for quantum groups to the evaluation of the universal…
The class of $\D$-locally nilpotent algebras (introduced in the paper) is a wide generalization of the algebras of differential operators on commutative algebras. Examples includes all the rings $\CD (A)$ of differential operators on…
We extend classical results on the classification of reversible elements of the group $\mathrm{GL}(n, \mathbb{C})$ (and $\mathrm{GL}(n, \mathbb{R})$) to $\mathrm{GL}(n, \mathbb{H})$ using an infinitesimal version of the classical…
We consider the conjugation-action of an arbitrary upper-block parabolic subgroup of ${\rm GL}_n(\mathbf{C})$ on the variety of $x$-nilpotent complex matrices and translate it to a representation-theoretic context. We obtain a criterion as…
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…
This paper provides sufficient density conditions for the existence of smooth vectors generating a frame or Riesz sequence in the lattice orbit of a square-integrable projective representation of a nilpotent Lie group. The conditions…
We introduce the notion of a graded group action on a graded algebra or, which is the same, a group action by graded pseudoautomorphisms. An algebra with such an action is a natural generalization of an algebra with a super- or a…
Motivated by geometric Langlands, we initiate a program to study the mirror symmetry between nilpotent orbit closures of a semisimple Lie algebra and those of its Langlands dual. The most interesting case is $B_n$ via $C_n$. Classically,…
Let G be a simple algebraic group over an algebraically closed field with Lie algebra g. Then the orbits of nilpotent elements of g under the adjoint action of G have been classified. We describe a simple algorithm for finding a…
Using a representation theoretic parameterization for the orbits in the enhanced cyclic nilpotent cone, derived by the authors in a previous article, we compute the fundamental group of these orbits. This computation has several…
Let G be a real, connected, noncompact, semisimple Lie group, let K be a maximal compact subgroup of G, and let g=k+p be the corresponding Cartan decomposition of the complexified Lie algebra of G. Sequences of strongly orthogonal…
Let $S$ be a finitely generated abelian semigroup of invertible linear operators on a finite dimensional real or complex vector space $V$. We show that every coarsely dense orbit of $S$ is actually dense in $V$. More generally, if the orbit…
We call a finite-dimensional complex Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ strongly rigid if its universal enveloping algebra $\Ug$ is rigid as an associative algebra, i.e. every formal associative deformation is equivalent to the trivial deformation.…
We investigate the geodesic orbit property of pseudo-Riemannian nilmanifolds, specifically those known in the literature as pseudo $H$-type Lie groups -- i.e., 2-step nilpotent Lie groups of Heisenberg type equipped with a left invariant…
