Let $G\subset SO(4)$ denote a finite subgroup containing the Heisenberg group. In these notes we classify all these groups, we find the dimension of the spaces of $G$-invariant polynomials and we give equations for the generators whenever…

Let $M$ be an $n$-dimensional manifold, $V$ the space of a representation $\rho: GL(n)\longrightarrow GL(V)$. Locally, let $T(V)$ be the space of sections of the tensor bundle with fiber $V$ over a sufficiently small open set $U\subset M$,…

A generalized Baumslag-Solitar group (GBS group) is a finitely generated group $G$ which acts on a tree with all edge and vertex stabilizers infinite cyclic. We show that Out(G) either contains non-abelian free groups or is virtually…

On conformal manifolds of even dimension $n\geq 4$ we construct a family of new conformally invariant differential complexes. Each bundle in each of these complexes appears either in the de Rham complex or in its dual. Each of the new…

Let V be a finite dimensional complex superspace and G a simple (or a ``close'' to simple) Lie superalgebra of matrix type, i.e., a Lie subsuperalgebra in GL(V). Under the classical invariant theory for G we mean the description of…

This is an expanded version of a series of two lectures given at the IMA summer program "Symmetries and Overdetermined Systems of Partial Differential Equations". The main part of the article describes the Riemannian version of the…

We construct the most general local effective actions for Goldstone boson fields associated with spontaneous symmetry breakdown from a group $G$ to a subgroup $H$. In a preceding paper, it was shown that any $G$-invariant term in the…

Let $(G,G_1)$ be a symmetric pair of holomorphic type, and we consider a pair of Hermitian symmetric spaces $D_1=G_1/K_1\subset D=G/K$, realized as bounded symmetric domains in complex vector spaces $\mathfrak{p}^+_1\subset\mathfrak{p}^+$…

We define classes of pseudodifferential operators on $G$-bundles with compact base and give a generalized $L^2$ Fredholm theory for invariant operators in these classes in terms of von Neumann's $G$-dimension. We combine this formalism with…

We construct a Bernstein-Gelfand-Gelfand type resolution in terms of direct sums of Kac modules for the finite-dimensional irreducible tensor representations of the general linear superalgebra. As a consequence it follows that the unique…

We define the gauge-equivariant index of a family of elliptic operators invariant with respect to the free action of a family $\GR \to B$ of Lie groups (these families are called ``gauge-invariant families'' in what follows). If the fibers…

The Branson-Gover operators are conformally invariant differential operators of even degree acting on differential forms. They can be interpolated by a holomorphic family of conformally invariant integral operators called fractional…

Let G be a branch group (as defined by Grigorchuk) acting on a tree T. A parabolic subgroup P is the stabiliser of an infinite geodesic ray in T. We denote by $\rho_{G/P}$ the associated quasi-regular representation. If G is discrete, these…

In the present paper we continue the project of systematic construction of invariant differential operators on the example of the non-compact algebra $G_{2(2)}$ which is split real form of $G_2$. We give the classification of reducible…

J. Pevtsova and the author constructed a ``universal $p$-nilpotent operator" for an infinitesimal group scheme $G$ over a field $k$ of characteristic $p > 0$ which led to coherent sheaves on the scheme of 1-parameter subgroups of $G$…

A regular normal parabolic geometry of type $G/P$ on a manifold $M$ gives rise to sequences $D_i$ of invariant differential operators, known as the curved version of the BGG resolution. These sequences are constructed from the normal…

We consider a homogeneous fibration $G/L \to G/K$, with symmetric fiber and base, where $G$ is a compact connected semisimple Lie group and $L$ has maximal rank in $G$. We suppose the base space $G/K$ is isotropy irreducible and the fiber…

For a simple real Lie group $G$ with Heisenberg parabolic subgroup $P$, we study the corresponding degenerate principal series representations. For a certain induction parameter the kernel of the conformally invariant system of second order…
