We give a criterion for the Kostant-Kirillov form on an adjoint orbit in a real semisimple Lie group to be exact. We explicitly compute the second cohomology of all the nilpotent adjoint orbits in every complex simple Lie algebras.

We first describe, over a field K of characteristic different from 2, the orbits for the adjoint actions of the Lie groups PGL(2, K) and PSL(2, K) on their Lie algebra sl(2, K). While the former are well known, the latter lead to the…

For the semi simple and deployed Lie algebra $\mathfrak g=\mathfrak{sl}(n, \R)$, we give an explicit construction of an overalgebra $\mathfrak g^+=\mathfrak g\rtimes V$ of $\mathfrak g$, where $V$ is a finite dimensional vector space. In…

Semisimple (co)adjoint orbits through real hyperbolic elements are well-known to be symplectomorphic to cotangent bundles. We provide a new proof of this fact based on elementary results on both Lie theory and symplectic geometry. Our proof…

Due to its rich structure and close connection with gauge theory, hyperk\"ahler manifolds have attracted increasing interest. Using infinite dimensional hyperk\"ahler reduction, Kronheimer proved that certain adjoint orbits of complexified…

This paper is devoted to the construction of a hyperkaehler structure on the complexification of any Hermitian-symmetric affine coadjoint orbit O of a semi-simple L*-group of compact type, which is compatible with the complex symplectic…

In this article we describe the coadjoint orbits of SL(2,$\mathbb R$). After choosing polarizations for each orbits, we pointed out the corresponding quantum coadjoint orbits and therefore unitary representations of SL(2,$\mathbb R$) via…

We study the construction of a manifestly covariant worldline action from a coadjoint orbit. A coadjoint orbit is a submanifold in the dual vector space of a Lie algebra, generated by coadjoint actions. Since a coadjoint orbit is a…

Let $(V,\gamma )$ be a real finite dimensional vector space with a symmetric bilinear form $\gamma $ whose kernel is spanned by a nonzero vector. The set of invertible real linear mappings of $(V, \gamma )$ into itself forms a Lie group…

The classification of the unitary irreducible representations of symmetry groups is a cornerstone of modern quantum physics, as it provides the fundamental building blocks for constructing the Hilbert spaces of theories admitting these…

We study actions of Lie supergroups, in particular, the hitherto elusive notion of orbits through odd (or more general) points. Following categorical principles, we derive a conceptual framework for their treatment and therein prove general…

The set of coadjoint orbits of the Virasoro algebra at level 1 is in bijection with the set of conjugacy classes in a certain open subset $\widetilde{\rm SL}(2,\mathbb{R})_+$ of the universal cover of ${\rm SL}(2,\mathbb{R})$. We strengthen…

We quantise orbits of the adjoint group action on elements of the sl(2,R) Lie algebra. The path integration along elliptic slices is akin to the coadjoint orbit quantization of compact Lie groups, and the calculation of the characters of…

This short note is a supplement to the previous article with the same title. Here we treat a conical symplectic variety obtained as a finite covering of a (not necessarily normal) nilpotent orbit closure of a complex semisimple Lie algebra.

We study coadjoint orbitopes, i.e. convex hulls of coadjoint orbits of a compact Lie group. We show that all the faces of such an orbitope are exposed. The face structure is studied by means of the momentum map and it is shown that every…
