We establish several inequalities for manifolds with positive scalar curvature and, more generally, for the scalar curvature bounded from below, in the spirit of the classical bound on the distances between conjugates points in surfaces…

We consider (projectively) linearly sofic groups, i.e. groups which can be approximated using (projective) matrices over arbitrary fields, as a generalization of sofic groups. We generalize known results for sofic groups and groups which…

The Cartan and Iwasawa decompositions of real reductive Lie groups play a fundamental role in the representation theory of the groups and their corresponding symmetric spaces. These decompositions are defined by an involution with a compact…

The general linear group acts on $m$-tuples of $N\times N$ matrices by simultaneous conjugation. Quantum deformations of the corresponding rings of invariants and the so-called trace rings are investigated.

We generalize Llarull's scalar curvature comparison to Riemannian manifolds admitting metric connections with parallel and alternating torsion and having a nonnegative curvature operator on 2-vectors. As a byproduct, we show that Euler…

Any sufficiently often differentiable curve in the orbit space of a compact Lie group representation can be lifted to a once differentiable curve into the representation space.

After a short review of the classical Lie theorem, a finite dimensional Lie algebra of vector fields is considered and the most general conditions under which the integral curves of one of the fields can be obtained by quadratures in a…

We consider the natural Lie algebra structure on the (associative) group algebra of a finite group $G$, and show that the Lie subalgebras associated to natural involutive antiautomorphisms of this group algebra are reductive ones. We give a…

A general definition of a linear connection in noncommutative geometry has been recently proposed. Two examples are given of linear connections in noncommutative geometries which are based on matrix algebras. They both possess a unique…

Reductive Lie Groups, such as the orthogonal groups, the Lorentz group, or the unitary groups, play essential roles across scientific fields as diverse as high energy physics, quantum mechanics, quantum chromodynamics, molecular dynamics,…

We study the Betti tables of reducible algebraic curves with a focus on connected line arrangements and provide a general formula for computing the quadratic strand of the Betti table for line arrangements that satisfy certain hypotheses.…

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…

In this survey, we discuss a series of linearization problems--for Poisson structures, Lie algebroids, and Lie groupoids. The last problem involves a conjecture on the structure of proper groupoids. Attempting to prove this by the method of…

In recent years, discrete spaces such as graphs attract much attention as models for physical spacetime or as models for testing the spirit of non-commutative geometry. In this work, we construct the differential algebras for graphs by…

This is the second installment of an exposition of an ACL2 formalization of elementary linear algebra. It extends the results of Part I, which covers the algebra of matrices over a commutative ring, but focuses on aspects of the theory that…

In this paper we use some basic facts from the theory of (matrix) Lie groups and algebras to show that many of the classical matrix splittings used to construct stationary iterative methods and preconditioniers for Krylov subspace methods…

We introduce the notion of curvature parameters for singular plane curves with finite multiplicities and define the notion of curvatures for them. We then provide criteria to determine their singularity types for A-simple singularities. As…

The equivalence group is determined for systems of linear ordinary differential equations in both the standard form and the normal form. It is then shown that the normal form of linear systems reducible by an invertible point transformation…

In this work we study the existence of solutions to the Mean Curvature Flow for which the initial condition has the structure of a two-dimensional Lie subgroup within a Lie group of dimension three. We consider Lie groups with a fixed…

The curvature discussed in this paper is a rather far going generalization of the Riemannian sectional curvature. We define it for a wide class of optimal control problems: a unified framework including geometric structures such as…
