We extend the theory of holomorphic induction of unitary representations of a possibly infinite-dimensional Lie group $G$ beyond the setting where the representation being induced is required to be norm-continuous. We allow the group $G$ to…

In this note we classify all homogeneous spaces $G/H$ admitting a $G$-invariant $G_2$-structure, assuming that $G$ is a compact Lie group and $G$ acts effectively on $G/H$. They include a subclass of all homogeneous spaces $G/H$ with a…

We call a unital locally convex algebra $A$ a continuous inverse algebra if its unit group $A^\times$ is open and inversion is a continuous map. For any smooth action of a, possibly infinite-dimensional, connected Lie group $G$ on a…

Let $G$ be a connected reductive linear algebraic group over a field $k$. Using ideas from geometric invariant theory, we study the notion of $G$-complete reducibility over $k$ for a Lie subalgebra $\mathfrak h$ of the Lie algebra…

Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a basic classical Lie superalgebra, $\mathcal{k}=\frac{h^{\vee}}{u}-h^{\vee}$ a boundary admissible level of $\widehat{\mathfrak{g}}$, where $u$ is a positive integer and $h^{\vee}$ is the dual Coxeter number of…

A unitary representation of a, possibly infinite dimensional, Lie group $G$ is called semibounded if the corresponding operators $i\dd\pi(x)$ from the derived representation are uniformly bounded from above on some non-empty open subset of…

Let G be a connected reductive group defined over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic p > 0. The purpose of this paper is two-fold. First, when p is a good prime, we give a new proof of the ``order formula'' of D. Testerman…

Hilbert--Lie groups are Lie groups whose Lie algebra is a real Hilbert space whose scalar product is invariant under the adjoint action. These infinite-dimensional Lie groups are the closest relatives to compact Lie groups. Here we study…

Let $H$ be a connected reductive subgroup of a complex connected reductive group $G$. Fix maximal tori and Borel subgroups of $H$ and $G$. Consider the pairs $(V,V')$ of irreducible representations of $H$ and $G$ such that $V$ is a…

We initiate the study of subgroups $H$ of the general linear group $GL_{\binom{n}{m}}(R)$ over a commutative ring $R$ that contain the $m$-th exterior power of an elementary group $\bigwedge^mE_n(R)$. Each such group $H$ corresponds to a…

Consider a reductive group G over a non-archimedean local field. The Galois group Gal(C/Q) acts naturally on the category of smooth complex G-representations. We prove that this action stabilizes the class of standard modules. This…

We initiate the investigation of the projective variety $E(r,g)$ of elementary subalgebras of dimension $r$ of a ($p$-restricted) Lie algebra $g$ for some $r > 0$ and demonstrate that this variety encodes considerable information about the…

Let $G$ be a reductive algebraic group---possibly non-connected---over a field $k$ and let $H$ be a subgroup of $G$. If $G= GL_n$ then there is a degeneration process for obtaining from $H$ a completely reducible subgroup $H'$ of $G$; one…

We find new conditions that the existence of nullity of the curvature tensor of an irreducible homogeneous space $M=G/H$ imposes on the Lie algebra $\mathfrak g$ of $G$ and on the Lie algebra $\tilde{\mathfrak g}$ of the full isometry group…

Let $F$ be locally compact field with residue characteristic $p$, and $\mathbf{G}$ a connected reductive $F$-group. Let $\mathcal{U}$ be a pro-$p$ Iwahori subgroup of $G = \mathbf{G}(F)$. Fix a commutative ring $R$. If $\pi$ is a smooth…

A 'prehomogeneous vector space' is a rational representation $\rho:G\to\mathrm{GL}(V)$ of a connected complex linear algebraic group $G$ that has a Zariski open orbit $\Omega\subset V$. Mikio Sato showed that the hypersurface components of…

In this paper we study non-abelian extensions of a Lie group $G$ modeled on a locally convex space by a Lie group $N$. The equivalence classes of such extension are grouped into those corresponding to a class of so-called smooth outer…

Let $(\mathfrak{g},[p])$ be a restricted Lie algebra over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $p\!\ge \!3$. Motivated by the behavior of geometric invariants of the so-called $(\mathfrak{g},[p])$-modules of constant $j$-rank…

In this note we study in a finite dimensional Lie algebra ${\mathfrak g}$ the set of all those elements x for which the closed convex hull of the adjoint orbit contains no affine lines; this contains in particular elements whose adjoint…
