We construct a smooth Banach manifold BV$([a,b], M)$ whose elements are suitably-defined functions $f:[a,b] \rightarrow M$ of bounded variation with values in a smooth Banach manifold $M$ which admits a local addition. If the target…

Given any real-analytic CR manifold M, we provide general conditions on M guaranteeing that the group of all its global real-analytic CR automorphisms is a Lie group (in an appropriate topology). Our conditions are in particular satisfied…

Given a smooth free action of a compact connected Lie group $G$ on a smooth compact manifold $M$, we show that the space of $G$-invariant Riemannian metrics on $M$ whose automorphism group is precisely $G$ is open dense in the space of all…

This is a preliminary version of a book on infinite-dimensional Lie groups. It covers the basics of calculus and manifolds in the context of locally convex spaces, based on Bastiani's notion of a smooth map. Starting from this concept, we…

In a previous article, analytic 1-submanifolds had been classified w.r.t. their symmetry under a given regular and separately analytic Lie group action on an analytic manifold. It was shown that such an analytic 1-submanifold is either free…

Dahmen and Schmeding have obtained the result that although the smooth Lie group $G$ of real analytic diffeomorphisms $\mathbb S^{\,1.}\to\mathbb S^{\,1.}$ has a compatible analytic manifold structure, it does not make $G$ a real analytic…

Let X be an analytic vector field on a real or complex 2-manifold, and K a compact set of zeros of X whose fixed point index is not zero. Let A denote the Lie algebra of analytic vector fields Y on M such that at every point of M the values…

Let G be a Lie group and E be a locally convex topological G-module. If E is sequentially complete, then E and its space of smooth vectors are modules for the algebra D(G) of compactly supported smooth functions on G. However, the module…

For an infinite dimensional Lie group $G$ modelled on a locally convex Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$, we prove that every smooth projective unitary representation of $G$ corresponds to a smooth linear unitary representation of a Lie group…

If G is a Lie group, let D(G) be the space of compactly supported smooth functions on G. Consider the bilinear map B : D(G) x D(G) -> D(G), (f,g) |-> f*g which takes a pair of test functions to their convolution. We show that B is…

In a previous work it is shown that every finite group $G$ of diffeomorphisms of a connected smooth manifold $M$ of dimension $\geq 2$ equals, up to quotient by the flow, the centralizer of the group of smooth automorphisms of a…

Let $G$ be a real reductive connected Lie group and $\sigma$ an involution of $G$. Let $H$ denote the identity component of the group of fixed points of $\sigma$, $\mathfrak g$ the Lie algebra of $G$ and $\mathfrak q$ the -1 eigenspace of…

The Trouv\'e group $\mathcal G_{\mathcal A}$ from image analysis consists of the flows at a fixed time of all time-dependent vectors fields of a given regularity $\mathcal A(\mathbb R^d,\mathbb R^d)$. For a multitude of regularity classes…

In this work, we construct and study certain classes of infinite dimensional Lie groups that are modelled on weighted function spaces. In particular, we construct a Lie group of weighted diffeomorphisms on a Banach space. Further, we also…

We show that a group of diffeomorphisms $\D$ on the open unit interval $I,$ equipped with the topology of uniform convergence on any compact set of the derivatives at any order, is non regular: the exponential map is not defined for some…

Let $M$ be a compact and connected smooth manifold endowed with a smooth action of a finite group $\Gamma$, and let $f$ be a $\Gamma$-invariant Morse function on $M$. We prove that the space of $\Gamma$-invariant Riemannian metrics on $M$…

Let $X$ be a smooth compact connected manifold. Let $G=\mbox{Diff}\, X$ be the group of diffeomorphisms of $X$, equipped with the $C^\infty$-topology, and let $H$ be the stabilizer of some point in $X$. Then the inclusion $H\to G$, which is…

We give an exposition of the theory of invariant manifolds around a fixed point, in the case of time-discrete, analytic dynamical systems over a complete ultrametric field K. Typically, we consider an analytic manifold M modelled on an…

In the present paper we study abelian extensions of connected Lie groups $G$ modeled on locally convex spaces by smooth $G$-modules $A$. We parametrize the extension classes by a suitable cohomology group $H^2_s(G,A)$ defined by locally…

Any Lie group G acting on a Euclidean nonvoid open subset M can be seen as a subgroup of the smooth diffeomorphisms Diff^\infty(M,M) of M into itself. Thus actions by such Lie groups G correspond to smooth coordinate transforms on M which,…
