On a smooth closed oriented $4$-manifold $M$ with a smooth action by a compact Lie group $G$, we define a $G$-monopole class as an element of $H^2(M;\Bbb Z)$ which is the first Chern class of a $G$-equivariant Spin$^c$ structure which has a…

We construct smooth actions of arbitrary compact Lie groups on complex projective spaces, such that the corresponding transformations arising from the group action do not preserve any symplectic structure on the complex projective space.

We give a sufficient condition for a symbolic topological dynamical system with action of a countable amenable group to be an extension of the full shift, a problem analogous to those studied by Ashley, Marcus, Johnson and others for…

Let H be a semisimple (so, finite dimensional) Hopf algebra over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic zero and let A be a commutative domain over k. We show that if A arises as an H-module algebra via an inner faithful…

Raymond and Wiliams constructed an action of the p-adic integers on an n-dimensional compactum, n>1, with the orbit space of dimension n+2. The author earlier presented a simplified approach for constructing such an action. In this paper we…

Let G be an n-dimensional torus and $\tau$ a Hamiltonian action of G on a compact symplectic manifold, M. If M is pre-quantizable one can associate with $\tau$ a representation of G on a virtual vector space, Q(M), by…

We formulate the Chern-Simons action for any compact Lie group using Deligne cohomology. This action is defined as a certain function on the space of smooth maps from the underlying 3-manifold to the classifying space for principal bundles.…

The theory of moduli of morphisms on P^n generalizes the study of rational maps on P^1. This paper proves three results about the space of morphisms on P^n of degree d > 1, and its quotient by the conjugation action of PGL(n+1). First, we…

Given a locally finite graded set A and a commutative, associative operation on A that adds degrees, we construct a commutative multiplication * on the set of noncommutative polynomials in A which we call a quasi-shuffle product; it can be…

Let $(M,\omega)$ be a connected symplectic manifold on which a connected Lie group $G$ acts properly and in a Hamiltonian fashion with moment map $\mu:M \lra \mf g^*$. Our purpose is investigate multiplicity-free actions, giving criteria to…

In this, the last of three papers about $C_2$-equivariant complex quadrics, we complete the calculation of the equivariant ordinary cohomology of smooth symmetric quadrics in the cases where the fixed sets have more than two components.…

It is a consequence of the classical Jordan bound for finite subgroups of linear groups that in each dimension n there are only finitely many finite simple groups which admit a faithful, linear action on the n-sphere. In the present paper…

J. Wiegold conjectured that if n>2 and G is a finite simple group, then the action of Aut(F_n) on Epi(F_n,G) is transitive. In this note we consider analogous questions where G is a compact Lie group, a non-compact simple analytic group or…

We obtain a version of the theorem of the square and a local structure result for actions of connected algebraic groups on seminormal varieties in characteristic 0, and arbitrary varieties in positive characteristics.

We classify representations of compact connected Lie groups whose induced action on the unit sphere has an orbit space isometric to a Riemannian orbifold.

The derivative expansion of the one-loop effective action in QED$_3$ and QED$_4$ is considered. The first term in such an expansion is the effective action for a constant electromagnetic field. An explicit expression for the next term…

Let X be a complete toric variety and Aut(X) be the automorphism group. We give an explit description of Aut(X)-orbits on X. In particular, we show that Aut(X) acts on X transitively if and only if X is a product of projective spaces.

We classify all smooth projective horospherical varieties with Picard number 1. We prove that the automorphism group of any such variety X acts with at most two orbits and that this group still acts with only two orbits on X blown up at the…

For the family of Kummer surfaces of the square of an elliptic curve over the prime field $\mathbb{F}_p$ with $p$ odd, we show that if the automorphism group acts transitively on the set of points then the action is at least alternating.…

Let $q=4$ and $k$ a positive integer. In this short note, we present a class of permutation polynomials over $\Bbb F_{q^{3k}}$. We also present a generalization.
