In 1992, Hitchin used his theory of Higgs bundles to construct an important family of representations of the fundamental group of a closed, oriented surface of genus at least two into the split real form of a complex adjoint simple Lie…

This paper is devoted to the development and applications of some (new) basic concepts in Lie theory, both from `computational" and "observability" viewpoint. We specify set of all "G-equivariant" maps from a given Lie group G to the…

Using the $L^2$ norm of the Higgs field as a Morse function, we study the moduli spaces of $U(p,q)$-Higgs bundles over a Riemann surface. We require that the genus of the surface be at least two, but place no constraints on $(p,q)$. A key…

In this paper the generalized Radon transform over level hypersurfaces of CES-functions of measures supported in positive orthant is studied. A characterization of the generalized Radon transform of nonnegative measures is found. Explicit…

This is my PhD thesis submitted to the Weizmann Institute of Science. It is based on the papers [AG08c], [AG08d], [AGRS07], [AGS08], [AGS09], [Aiz08] and [SZ08]. This thesis includes an introduction to Gelfand pairs and invariant…

We consider the attenuated geodesic ray transform defined on pairs of symmetric $2$-tensors and $1$-forms on a simple Riemannian manifold. We prove injectivity and stability results for a class of generic simple metrics and attenuations…

In analogy with radiation fields for asymptotically Euclidean manifolds, introduced by F.G. Friedlander, we define radiation fields for asymptotically hyperbolic manifolds. We use them to give a translation representation of the wave group…

Consider a compact Riemannian manifold in dimension $n\geq 3$ with strictly convex boundary. We show that the transverse ray transform of $1$ tensors and the mixed ray transform of $1+1$ tensors are invertible, up to natural obstructions,…

We answer the question asked by Louder, McReynolds and Patel, and prove the following statement. Let L be a RAAG, H a word quasiconvex subgroup of L, then there is a finite dimensional representation of L that separates the subgroup H in…

In this note we prove the following three algebraic facts which have applications in the theory of holonomy groups and homogeneous spaces: Any irreducibly acting connected subgroup $G \subset Gl(n,\rr)$ is closed. Moreover, if $G$ admits an…

If G is a finitely generated group, and A an algebraic group, then Hom(G,A) is a possibly reducible algebraic variety denoted by R_A(G). Here we define the profile function, P_d(R_A(G)), of the representation variety of G over A to be…

Hyperplane is a set of non-injectivity of the spherical Radon transform (SRT) in the space of continuous functions in R^d. In this article, for the reconstruction of an unknown function f from C(R^3) (the support can be non-compact), using…

In their proof of the Drinfeld-Langlands correspondence, Frenkel, Gaitsgory and Vilonen make use of a geometric Fourier transformation. Therefore, they work either with l-adic sheaves in characteristic p>0, or with D-modules in…

An integral representation result for strictly positive subharmonic functions of a one-dimensional regular diffusion is established. More precisely, any such function can be written as a linear combination of an increasing and a decreasing…

A harmonic map from a Riemannian manifold into a Grassmannian manifold is characterized by a vector bundle, a space of sections of this bundle and a Laplace operator. We apply our main theorem, itself a generalization of a Theorem of…

Let (g,k) be a reductive symmetric superpair of even type, i.e. so that there exists an even Cartan subspace a in p. The restriction map S(p^*)^k->S(a^*)^W where W=W(g_0:a) is the Weyl group, is injective. We determine its image explicitly.…

In matrix theory and numerical analysis there are two very famous and important results. One is Gersgorin circle theorem, the other is strictly diagonally dominant theorem. They have important application and research value, and have been…

We prove sharp $L^2$ regularity results for classes of strongly singular Radon transfoms on the Heisenberg group by means of oscillatory integrals. We show that the problem in question can be effectively treated by establishing uniform…

In this article we study the spherical mean Radon transform in $\mathbf R^3$ with detectors centered on a plane. We use the consistency method suggested by the author of this article for the inversion of the transform in 3D. A new iterative…

The notion of Gelfand pair (G, K) can be generalized if we consider homogeneous vector bundles over G/K instead of the homogeneous space G/K and matrix-valued functions instead of scalar-valued functions. This gives the definition of…
