We formulate a quantization commutes with reduction principle in the setting where the Lie group $G$, the symplectic manifold it acts on, and the orbit space of the action may all be noncompact. It is assumed that the action is proper, and…
Let $G$ be a countable group and $X$ be a totally regular curve. Suppose that $\phi:G\rightarrow {\rm Homeo}(X)$ is a minimal action. Then we show an alternative: either the action is topologically conjugate to isometries on the circle…
Let G be a real reductive Lie group and H a closed reductive subgroup of G. We investigate the deformation of "standard" compact quotients of G/H, i.e., of quotients of G/H by discrete subgroups Gamma of G that are uniform lattices in a…
We describe smooth compactifications of certain families of reductive homogeneous spaces such as group manifolds for classical Lie groups, or pseudo-Riemannian analogues of real hyperbolic spaces and their complex and quaternionic…
Let $I=[0,1)$ and $\mathcal{PC}(I)$ [resp. $\mathcal{PC}^+(I)$] be the quotient group of the group of all piecewise continuous [resp. piecewise continuous and orientation preserving] bijections of $I$ by its normal subgroup consisting in…
In this paper we q-deform a construction of Kazhdan and Kostant from 1970's which produces quantum Toda Hamiltonians by considering the action of Casimirs of a simple Lie algebra on Whittaker functions on the corresponding Lie group. We…
We construct an analogue of Whittaker reduction for Poisson actions of a semisimple complex Poisson-Lie group G. The reduction takes place along a class of transversal slices to unipotent orbits in G, which are generalizations of the…
The universal enveloping algebra U(g) of a Lie algebra g acts on its representation ring R through D(R), the ring of differential operators on R. A quantised universal enveloping algebra (or "quantum group") is a deformation of a universal…
Groups definable in simple theories retain the chain conditions and decomposition properties known from stable groups, up to commensurability. In the small case, if a generic type of G is not foreign to some type q, there is a q-internal…
In this article, we consider a twisted partial action $\alpha$ of a group $G$ on a ring $R$ and it is associated partial crossed product $R*_{\alpha}^wG$. We study necessary and sufficient conditions for the commutativity and simplicity of…
We presented a systematic treatment of a Hilbert criterion for stability theory for an action of a real reductive group $G$ on a real submanifold $X$ of a K\"ahler manifold $Z$. More precisely, we suppose the action of a compact connected…
Let $\mathbb{H}\trianglelefteq\mathbb{G}$ be a closed normal subgroup of a locally compact quantum group. We introduce a strictly positive group-like element affiliated with $L^{\infty}(\mathbb{G})$ that, roughly, measures the failure of…
Classical and quantum Hamiltonian reductions of free geodesic systems of complete Riemannian manifolds are investigated. The reduced systems are described under the assumption that the underlying compact symmetry group acts in a polar…
We study the representation ${\cal D}$ of a simple compact Lie algebra $\g$ of rank l constructed with the aid of the hermitian Dirac matrices of a (${\rm dim} \g$)-dimensional euclidean space. The irreducible representations of $\g$…
We call a pair of closed subgroups $(G_1,G_2)$ from a connected reductive algebraic group $G$ a {\it complexity $c$ pair} if the multiplication action of the pair on $G$ is of complexity $c$. The main focus of this article is on the cases…
We provide results on the smoothness of normalisers in connected reductive algebraic groups $G$ over fields $k$ of positive characteristic $p$. Specifically we we give bounds on $p$ which guarantee that normalisers of subalgebras of…
An open question is whether the map $\widetilde{K_0 }\mathbb{Z} G \rightarrow \widetilde{K_0 }\mathbb{Q} G$ in reduced $K$-theory from the integral to the rational group ring is trivial for any group $G$. We will show that this is false,…
We establish a cosymplectic counterpart of Banyaga's theorem by proving that the group of weakly Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms, $\Ham_{\eta,\omega}(M)$, is simple on any closed cosymplectic manifold. A key structural result, derived from Lie…
I prove the existence of slices for an action of a reductive complex Lie group on a K\"ahler manifold at certain orbits, namely those orbits that intersect the zero level set of a momentum map for the action of a compact real form of the…
We propose a generalization of Heisenberg picture quantum mechanics in which a Lagrangian and Hamiltonian dynamics is formulated directly for dynamical systems on a manifold with non--commuting coordinates, which act as operators on an…
