Let m(a,b) and M(a,b,c) be symmetric means. We say that M is type 1 invariant with respect to m if M(m(a,c),m(a,b),m(b,c)) = M(a,b,c) for all a, b, c > 0. If m is strict and isotone, then we show that there exists a unique M which is type 1…

A Lie group $G$ endowed with a left invariant Riemannian metric $g$ is called Riemannian Lie group. Harmonic and biharmonic maps between Riemannian manifolds is an important area of investigation. In this paper, we study different aspects…

Let $G$ be a finite group, define $I(G)=\{x\in G : x^{2}=1\}$, $C(G)=$ set of the cyclic subgroups of $G$, $i(G)=|I(G)|$ and $c(G)=|C(G)|$. In this article, we will classify finite groups with $i(G)=c(G)-r$ for $r=0,1,$ and $2$. We also…

Building upon work of Y. Shalom we give a homological-algebra flavored definition of an induction map in group homology associated to a topological coupling. As an application we obtain estimates of the (co)homological dimension of groups G…

We consider the equivariant Yamabe problem, i.e. the Yamabe problem on the space of G-invariant metrics for a compact Lie group G. The G-Yamabe invariant is analogously defined as the supremum of the constant scalar curvatures of unit…

The Oscillator Groups,$\G_\lambda,$ are the only solvable, non commutative, simply connected Lie groups to admit a Lorentzian bi-invariant metric. For these groups, we give sufficient conditions for a left-invariant pseudo-Riemannian metric…

Let $G$ be an algebraic group and let $X$ be a smooth $G$-variety with two orbits: an open orbit and a a closed orbit of codimension $1$. We give an algebraic description of the category of $G$-equivariant vector bundles on $X$ under a mild…

A quadratic Lie algebra is a Lie algebra endowed with a symmetric, invariant and non degenerate bilinear form; such a bilinear form is called an invariant metric. The aim of this work is to describe the general structure of those central…

Let G a group of germs of analytic diffeomorphisms in (C^2,0). We find some remarkable properties supposing that G is finite, linearizable, abelian nilpotent and solvable. In particular, if the group is abelian and has a generic dicritic…

For a finite group $G$, we investigate the behaviour of four invariants, $\text{MaxDim}(G),$ $\text{MinDim}(G),$ $\text{MaxInt}(G)$ and $\text{MinInt}(G),$ measuring in some way the width and the height of the lattice $\mathcal M(G)$…

Let $\mathcal{H}$ be Hilbert space and $(\Omega,\mu)$ a $\sigma$-finite measure space. Multiplicatively invariant (MI) spaces are closed subspaces of $ L^2(\Omega, \mathcal{H})$ that are invariant under point-wise multiplication by…

We study invariant measures of continuous contact model in small dimensional spaces ($d =1,2$). Under general conditions we prove that in the critical regime this system has the one-parameter set of invariant measures parametrized by the…

A generalized metric on a manifold $M$, i.e., a pair $(g,H)$, where $g$ is a Riemannian metric and $H$ a closed $3$-form, is a fixed point of the generalized Ricci flow if and only if $(g,H)$ is Bismut Ricci flat: $H$ is $g$-harmonic and…

We study how the problem of observables is fully resolved for background independent theories defined on finite graphs. We argue the correct analogue of coordinate independence is the invariance under changes of graph labels, a kind of…
