We study some properties of the varieties of deformations of free groups in compact Lie groups. In particular we prove a conjecture of Margulis and Soifer about the density of non-virtually free points in such variety, and a conjecture of…

We consider the group algebra over the field of complex numbers of the Weyl group of type B (the hyperoctahedral group, or the group of signed permutations) and of the Weyl group of type D (the demihyperoctahedral group, or the group of…

In this article, we focus on the left (translation) actions on noncommutative compact connected Lie groups ${\rm SU}(2) \times T^n$. We define the rotation vectors of the left actions induced by the elements in the maximal tori of ${\rm…

In this work, we study direct limits of finite dimensional basic classical simple Lie superalgebras and obtain the conjugacy classes of Cartan subalgebras under the group of automorphisms.

We study inert, and ambiguous conjugacy classes in the modular group $\mathrm{PSL}(2,\mathbb{Z})$ from a purely combinatorial perspective. Using word length in the free product representation $\mathbb{Z}_2 * \mathbb{Z}_3$ of the modular…

We study the conjugacy classes of the classical affine groups. We derive generating functions for the number of classes analogous to formulas of Wall and the authors for the classical groups. We use these to get good upper bounds for the…

All factorizable Lie bialgebra structures on complex reductive Lie algebras were described by Belavin and Drinfeld. We classify the symplectic leaves of the full class of corresponding connected Poisson-Lie groups. A formula for their…

We determine all the contractions within the class of finite-dimensional real Lie algebras whose coadjoint orbits have dimensions $\le2$.

In this paper we find all conjugacy classes of the first basic Renner monoid of type E_6. They are listed in the tables of the paper.

Given an integer homology class of a finitely presentable group, the systolic volume quantifies how tight could be a geometric realization of this class. In this paper, we study various aspects of this numerical invariant showing that it is…

The maximal Abelian subalgebras of the Euclidean e(p,0) and pseudoeuclidean e(p,1)Lie algebras are classified into conjugacy classes under the action of the corresponding Lie groups E(p,0) and E(p,1), and also under the conformal groups…

In the paper we present a new, uniform and comprehensive description of centralizers of the maximal regular subgroups in compact simple Lie groups of all types and ranks. The centralizer is either a direct product of finite cyclic groups, a…

In this paper, we completely classify three-dimensional Lorentzian $Ein(2)$ Lie groups.

We study the homogeneous spaces of a simply connected, compact, simple Lie group $G$ through the lens of K-theory. Our methods apply equally well to the case where $G$ is in one of the four infinite families of classical groups, or one of…

In this paper we consider some Lie groups in complexified Clifford algebras. Using relations between operations of conjugation in Clifford algebras and matrix operations we prove isomorphisms between these groups and classical matrix groups…

The complexity of a module is an important homological invariant that measures the polynomial rate of growth of its minimal projective resolution. For the symmetric group $\Sigma_n$, the Lie module $\mathsf{Lie}(n)$ has attracted a great…

Let $G$ be the alternating group $\mbox{Alt}(n)$ on $n$ letters. We prove that for any $\varepsilon > 0$ there exists $N = N(\varepsilon) \in \mathbb{N}$ such that whenever $n \geq N$ and $A$, $B$, $C$, $D$ are normal subsets of $G$ each of…

We classify the nilpotent Lie rings of order $p^8$ with maximal class for $p \ge 5$. This also provides a classification of the groups of order $p^8$ with maximal class for $p \ge 11$ via the Lazard correspondence.

There are two natural choices for a volume form on the algebraic group Gl_n over Q: the first is the integral form (unique up to sign), the other is the product of the primitive classes in algebraic de Rham cohomology. We work out the…

We classify irreducible representations of compact connected Lie groups whose orbit space is isometric to the orbit space of a representation of a compact Lie group of dimension~$7$, $8$ or $9$. They turn out to be closely related to…
