We quantise orbits of the adjoint group action on elements of the sl(2,R) Lie algebra. The path integration along elliptic slices is akin to the coadjoint orbit quantization of compact Lie groups, and the calculation of the characters of…

In this article we give a classification of the sub-groups in PSL(2,Z) and of the conjugacy classes of these sub-groups by the mean of an combinatorial invariant: some trivalent diagrams (dotted or not). We give explicit formulae enabling…

Let $\mathrm{SL}(n,\mathbb{R})$ be the special linear group and $\mathfrak{sl}(n,\mathbb{R})$ its Lie algebra. We study geometric properties associated to the adjoint orbits in the simplest non-trivial case, namely, those of…

In this paper we give some evidence for the Tate (and Hodge) conjecture(s) for a class of Hilbert modular fourfolds X, whose connected components arise as arithmetic quotients of the fourfold product of the upper half plane by congruence…

For a prime \(p\ge 2\) and a number field K with p-class group of type (p,p) it is shown that the class, coclass, and further invariants of the metabelian Galois group \(G=Gal(F_p^2(K) | K)\) of the second Hilbert p-class field \(F_p^2(K)\)…

The modular group PSL(2;Z) acts on the hyperbolic plane HP with quotient the modular surface M, whose unit tangent bundle U is a 3-manifold homeomorphic to the complement of the trefoil knot in the 3-sphere. The hyperbolic conjugacy classes…

We classify, up to isomorphism, the 2-dimensional algebras over a field K. We focuse also on the case of characteristic 2, identifying the matrices of GL(2,F_2) with the elements of the symmetric group S_3. The classification is then given…

Let $k$ be a field with $u$-invariant $\leq2$. Assume further that $k$ is not quadratically closed, $\mathsf{char}(k)\neq 2$ and $|k|\geq 5$. It is known that the covering number of both $\text{SL}_2(k)$ and $\text{PSL}_2(k)$ is three,…

We investigate the SL(2,R) invariant geodesic curves with the as- sociated invariant distance function in parabolic geometry. Parabolic geom- etry naturally occurs in the study of SL(2,R) and is placed in between the elliptic and the…

In this note, we classify the conjugacy classes of $\widetilde{\mathrm{SL}}_2(\mathbb{R})$, the universal covering group of $\mathrm{PSL}_2(\mathbb{R})$. For any non-central element $\alpha \in \widetilde{\mathrm{SL}}_2(\mathbb{R})$, we…

Generalized coherent states provide a means of connecting square integrable representations of a semi-simple Lie group with the symplectic geometry of some of its homogeneous spaces. In the first part of the present work this point of view…

The symmetries described by Pin groups are the result of combining a finite number of discrete reflections in (hyper)planes. The current work shows how an analysis using geometric algebra provides a picture complementary to that of the…

We consider the action of the group $\mathrm{PGL}_4(K)$ on the smooth cubic surfaces of $\mathbb{P}^3_K$ ($K$ an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero). We classify, in an explicit way, all the smooth cubic surfaces with non…

Let $k$ be a field of characteristic not 2 or 3. Let $V$ be the $k$-space of binary cubic polynomials. The natural symplectic structure on $k^2$ promotes to a symplectic structure $\omega$ on $V$ and from the natural symplectic action of…

As noticed by R.~Kulkarni, the conjugacy classes of subgroups of the modular group correspond bijectively to bipartite cuboid graphs. We'll explain how to recover the graph corresponding to a subgroup $G$ of $\mathrm{PSL}_2(\mathbb{Z})$…

We construct a new family, indexed by the odd integers $N\geq 1$, of $(2+1)$-dimensional quantum field theories called {\it quantum hyperbolic field theories} (QHFT), and we study its main structural properties. The QHFT are defined for…

The purpose of this article is to analyze several Lie algebras associated to "orbit configuration spaces" obtained from a group G acting freely, and properly discontinuously on the upper 1/2-plane H^2. The Lie algebra obtained from the…

For a quadratic extension $\mathbb{E}/\mathbb{F}$ of non-archimedean local fields we construct explicit holomorphic families of intertwining operators between principal series representations of $\operatorname{PGL}(2,\mathbb{E})$ and…

Given a symmetric pair $(G,K)=(\mathrm{GL}_{p+q}(\mathbb{C}),\mathrm{GL}_{p}(\mathbb{C})\times \mathrm{GL}_{q}(\mathbb{C}))$ of type AIII, we consider the diagonal action of $K$ on the double flag variety…

We discuss some geometric aspects of PSL(2,C), SL(2,C), and the space G of the geodesics of H^3 equipped with some suitable structures of Riemannian holomorphic manifolds of constant sectional curvature. We also observe that G is a…
