We show that the tangent cone at the identity is not a complete quasiconformal invariant for sub-Riemannian nilpotent groups. Namely, we show that there exists a nilpotent Lie group equipped with left invariant sub-Riemannian metric that is…

We consider conformal Killing-Yano forms corresponding to the antisymmetric generalizations of conformal Killing vectors to higher degree forms in the presence of skew-symmetric torsion. Integrability conditions for torsionful conformal…

We study Lie group structures on groups of the form C^\infty(M,K)}, where M is a non-compact smooth manifold and K is a, possibly infinite-dimensional, Lie group. First we prove that there is at most one Lie group structure with Lie algebra…

We investigate to what extent a nilpotent Lie group is determined by its $C^*$-algebra. We prove that, within the class of exponential Lie groups, direct products of Heisenberg groups with abelian Lie groups are uniquely determined even by…

We present a complete classification of invariant generalised Killing spinors on three-dimensional Lie groups. We show that, in this context, the existence of a non-trivial invariant generalised Killing spinor implies that all invariant…

We study 9 and 10-dimensional Anosov Lie algebras, by using the properties of very special algebraic numbers. We classify k-step complex Anosov Lie algebras for $k>2$ and in the two step case, we give an example in each possible type, or we…

This paper explores the properties of multiplicative Lie algebra structures on a nilpotent group of class $2$. We also present a method for determining a multiplicative Lie algebra structure on a group that serves as an extension of one Lie…

For a real, non-singular, 2-step nilpotent Lie algebra $\mathfrak{n}$, the group \Aut(\mathfrak{n})/\Aut_0(\mathfrak{n})$, where $\Aut_0(\mathfrak{n})$ is the group of automorphisms which act trivially on the center, is the direct product…

This paper is an adaptation of a chapter from an upcoming monograph on noncommutative geometry and quantum groups. We present examples of non compact quantum groups which are deformations of low dimensional Lie groups. The paper is of…

We study the existence of certain characteristically nilpotent Lie algebras with flat coadjoint orbits. Their connected, simply connected Lie groups admit square-integrable representations modulo the center. There are many examples of…

In this paper, we study Lorentzian left invariant Einstein metrics on nilpotent Lie groups. We show that if the center of such Lie groups is degenerate then they are Ricci-flat and their Lie algebras can be obtained by the double extension…

In this paper, we investigate the behavior of the Fourier transform on finite dimensional 2-step Lie groups and develop a general theory akin to that of the whole space or the torus. We provide a familiar framework in which computations are…

A result of Barnea and Isaacs states that if $L$ is a finite dimensional nilpotent Lie algebra with exactly two distinct centralizer dimensions, then nilpotency class of $L$ is either $2$ or $3$. In this article, we classify all such finite…

In this note we are concerned with the distribution of Einstein and non-Einstein nilradicals among all nilpotent Lie groups. A nilpotent Lie group is called an Einstein, resp. non-Einstein, nilradical if it is a nilpotent Lie group which…
