The Lie algbera of a compact semisimple Lie group G is determined by the degrees of the irreducible representations of G. However, two different groups can have the same representation degrees.
We classify embeddings of the finite groups $A_4$, $S_4$ and $A_5$ in the Lie group $G_2(\mathbb{C})$ up to conjugation.
We give a full classification of Lie algebras of specific type in complexified Clifford algebras. These sixteen Lie algebras are direct sums of subspaces of quaternion types. We obtain isomorphisms between these Lie algebras and classical…
The paper presents the complete classification of Automorphic Lie Algebras based on $\mathfrak{sl}_n (\mathbb{C})$, where the symmetry group $G$ is finite and the orbit is any of the exceptional $G$-orbits in $\overline{\mathbb{C}}$. A key…
We solve the long standing problem of classification of standard compact Clifford-Klein forms of homogeneous spaces of simple non-compact real Lie groups under the extra assumption that $G$, $H$, $L$ are simple and absolutely simple. Then…
Following work of Rieffel, we define the Cayley compactification of an abelian group with specified generating set. We investigate its structure using methods from discrete geometry and commutative algebra.
Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a Lie algebra over an algebraically closed field $\Bbbk$ of characteristic zero. Define the universal grading group $\mathcal{C}(\mathfrak{g})$ as having one generator $g_{\rho}$ for each irreducible…
The classical Cayley transform is a birational map between a quadratic matrix group and its Lie algebra, which was first discovered by Cayley in 1846. Because of its essential role in both pure and applied mathematics, the classical Cayley…
We survey different tools to classify representations of compact Lie groups according to their cohomogeneity and apply these methods to the case of irreducible representations of cohomogeneity 6, 7 and 8.
In the first, mostly expository, part of this paper, a graded Lie algebra is associated to every group G given with an N-series of subgroups. The asymptotics of the Poincare series of this algebra give estimates on the growth of the group…
Let $G$ be a finite group. Denote by $\textrm{Irr}(G)$ the set of all irreducible complex characters of $G.$ Let $\textrm{cd}(G)=\{\chi(1)\;|\;\chi\in \textrm{Irr}(G)\}$ be the set of all irreducible complex character degrees of $G$…
We develop practical tools for analyzing the configuration set $F(G,k)$ of $k\geq 2$ distinct elements in a group $G$. We apply our results to design homogeneous linear systems in $\mathbb{F}_q$ that admit nontrivial solutions. Furthermore,…
We define stacky Lie groups to be group objects in the 2-category of differentiable stacks. We show that every connected and etale stacky Lie group is equivalent to a crossed module of the form (H,G) where H is the fundamental group of the…
We introduce a new class of $\mathfrak{sl}_2$-triples in a complex simple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$, which we call magical. Such an $\mathfrak{sl}_2$-triple canonically defines a real form and various decompositions of $\mathfrak{g}$.…
We determine the structure of the weak*-closed $G$-invariant ideals in the Fourier-Stieltjes algebra $B(G)$ of certain groups $G$ by means of a $K$-theoretical obstruction. The groups to which this applies are groups whose only irreducible…
A linear algebraic group G over a field k is called a Cayley group if it admits a Cayley map, i.e., a G-equivariant birational isomorphism over k between the group variety G and the Lie algebra Lie(G). A Cayley map can be thought of as a…
All gradings by abelian groups are classified on the following algebras over an algebraically closed field of characteristic not 2: the simple Lie algebra of type $G_2$ (characteristic not 3), the exceptional simple Jordan algebra, and the…
We define Lie subalgebras of the group algebra of a finite pseudo-reflection group that are involved in the definition of the Cherednik KZ-systems, and determine their structure. We provide applications for computing the Zariski closure of…
This article is devoted to the investigation of wrap groups of connected fiber bundles over the fields of real $\bf R$, complex $\bf C$ numbers, the quaternion skew field $\bf H$ and the octonion algebra $\bf O$. These groups are…
This is a semi-survey paper, where we start by advertising Tits' synthetic construction from \cite{Tits}, of the hyperbolic plane $H^2(Cay)$ over the Cayley numbers $Cay$, and of its automorphism group which is the exceptional simple Lie…
