Let $\mathcal{N} \subset \mathbb{R}^M$ be a smooth simply connected compact manifold without boundary. A rational homotopy subgroup of $\pi_{N}(\mathcal{N})$ is represented by a homomorphism \[{\rm deg}: \pi_{N}(\mathcal{N}) \to…
In the article at hand, we sketch how, by utilizing nilpotency to its fullest extent (Engel, Super Engel) while using methods from the theory of universal enveloping algebras, a complete description of the indecomposable representations may…
The Shapovalov determinant for a class of pointed Hopf algebras is calculated, including quantized enveloping algebras, Lusztig's small quantum groups, and quantized Lie superalgebras. Our main tools are root systems, Weyl groupoids, and…
Let $\mathbb{D}$ denote the unit disk of $\mathbb{C}$ and let $\Lambda^\alpha(\mathbb{D})$ denote the scale of holomorphic Lipschitz spaces extended to all $\alpha\in\mathbb{R}$. For arbitrary $\alpha, \beta\in\mathbb{R}$, we characterize…
The (delta-) normal cone to an arbitrary intersection of sublevel sets of proper, lower semicontinuous, and convex functions is characterized, using either epsilon-subdifferentials at the nominal point or exact subdifferentials at nearby…
Half Lie groups exist only in infinite dimensions: They are smooth manifolds and topological groups such that right translations are smooth, but left translations are merely required to be continuous. The main examples are groups of $H^s$…
These notes give an elementary introduction to Lie groups, Lie algebras, and their representations. Designed to be accessible to graduate students in mathematics or physics, they have a minimum of prerequisites. Topics include definitions…
In physics, Lie groups represent the algebraic structure that describes symmetry transformations of a given system. Then, the descending Lie algebra of those groups are necessarily real. In most cases, the complexification of those Lie…
We demonstrate that the notions of derivative representation of a Lie algebra on a vector bundle, of semi-linear representations of a Lie group on a vector bundle, and related concepts, may be understood in terms of representations of Lie…
Let $\pi$ be an unitary irreducible representation of a Lie group $G$. $\pi$ defines a moment set $I_\pi$, subset of the dual $\mathfrak g^*$ of the Lie algebra of $G$. Unfortunately, $I_\pi$ does not characterize $\pi$. However, we…
The aim of this paper is to find new estimates for the norms of functions of the (minus) Laplace operator $\cal L$ on the `$ax+b$' groups. The central part is devoted to spectrally localized wave propagators, that is, functions of the type…
Consider the space B of complex $p\times q$ matrces with norm <1. There exists a standard one-parameter family $S_a$ of unitary representations of the pseudounitary group U(p,q) in the space of holomorphic functions on B (i.e. scalar…
The aim of this note is to prove various general properties of a generalization of the full module of first order differential operators on a commutative ring - a $\operatorname{D}$-Lie algebra. A $\operatorname{D}$-Lie algebra $\tilde{L}$…
We consider sub-Riemannian manifolds which are homogeneous spaces equipped with a natural sub-Riemannian structure induced by a transitive action by a Lie group. In such a setting, the corresponding sub-Laplacian is not an elliptic but a…
The coefficient algebra of a finite-dimensional Lie algebra on a finite-dimensional representation is defined as the subalgebra generated by all coefficients of the corresponding characteristic polynomial. We explore connections between…
We study boundary representations of hyperbolic groups $\Gamma$ on the (compactly embedded) function space $W^{\log,2}(\partial\Gamma)\subset L^2(\partial\Gamma)$, the domain of the logarithmic Laplacian on $\partial\Gamma$. We show that…
A super Lie group is a group whose operations are $G^{\infty}$ mappings in the sense of Rogers. Thus the underlying supermanifold possesses an atlas whose transition functions are $G^{\infty}$ functions. Moreover the images of our charts…
In this paper we introduce (weakly) root graded Banach--Lie algebras and corresponding Lie groups as natural generalizations of group like $\GL_n(A)$ for a Banach algebra $A$ or groups like $C(X,K)$ of continuous maps of a compact space $X$…
We compute the structure of the Lie algebras associated to two examples of branch groups, and show that one has finite width while the other, the ``Gupta-Sidki group'', has unbounded width. This answers a question by Sidki. More precisely,…
In this paper we estimate the Sobolev embedding constant on general noncompact Lie groups, for sub-Riemannian inhomogeneous Sobolev spaces endowed with a left invariant measure. The bound that we obtain, up to a constant depending only on…
