We give a geometric classification of $n$-dimensional nilpotent, commutative nilpotent and anticommutative nilpotent algebras. We prove that the corresponding geometric varieties are irreducible, find their dimensions and describe explicit…

Let $\mathcal{O}$ be the ring of integers of a number field, and let $n\geq 3$. This paper studies bi-interpretability of the ring of integers $\mathbb{Z}$ with the special linear group $\text{SL}_n(\mathcal{O})$, the general linear group…

We construct a generalised notion of Kac-Moody algebras using smooth maps from the non-compact manifolds ${\cal M}=$SL$(2,\mathbb R)$ and ${\cal M}=$ SL$(2,\mathbb R)/U(1)$ to a finite-dimensional simple Lie group $G$. This construction is…

Orthogonality is a fundamental theme in representation theory and Fourier analysis. An orthogonality relation for characters of finite abelian groups (now recognized as an orthogonality relation on $\mathrm{GL}(1)$) was used by Dirichlet to…

In this paper we study the variety of one dimensional representations of a finite $W$-algebra attached to a classical Lie algebra, giving a precise description of the dimensions of the irreducible components. We apply this to prove a…

This is a short presentation of some classical results on finite dimensional complex Lie algebras (classification of nilpotent Lie algebras, deformations and perturbations, contractions and rigidity). We present some applications to…

The concept of global conformal invariance (GCI) opens the way of applying algebraic techniques, developed in the context of 2-dimensional chiral conformal field theory, to a higher (even) dimensional space-time. In particular, a system of…

A host algebra of a topological group G is a C^*-algebra whose representations are in one-to-one correspondence with certain continuous unitary representations of G. In this paper we present an approach to host algebras for infinite…

This paper gives methods to describe the adjoint orbits of $\mathbf{G}(\mathfrak{o}_r)$ on $\mathrm{Lie}(\mathbf{G})(\mathfrak{o}_r)$ where $\mathfrak{o}_r=\mathfrak{o}/\mathfrak{p}^r$ ($r\in\mathbb{N}$) is a finite quotient of the…

We investigate the finite-dimensional Lie groups whose points are separated by the continuous homomorphisms into groups of invertible elements of locally convex algebras with continuous inversion that satisfy an appropriate completeness…

Let $\F$ be a field with a non-trivial involution $c: \alpha \to \alpha^c$. An element $g \in {\rm GL}_n(\F)$ is called $c$-real if it is conjugate to $(g^c)^{-1}$. We prove that for $n \geq 2$, $g \in {\rm GL}_n(\F)$ is $c$-real if and…

The main result of this article is an application of the theory of invariant convex cones of Lie algebras to the study of unitary representations of Lie supergroups. It also includes an exposition of recent results of the second author on…

We prove how the universal enveloping algebra constructions for Lie-Rinehart algebras and anchored Lie algebras are naturally left adjoint functors. This provides a conceptual motivation for the universal properties these constructions…

Given a natural number m and a Lie algebra g, the m th generalized Takiff Lie algebra of g is the Lie algebra gm\,:= g $\otimes$ C[T ]/T m+1 . For n $\ge$ m, we define the (m, n)-modality of an adjoint orbit $\Omega$m in gm to be the…

A classical enumerative result states that, given a graph $G$ and a vertex $u$, the number of connected subgraphs of $G$ is equal to the number of orientations of $G$ such that every vertex can reach $u$ by a directed path. We show that…

We study the quotient of $\mathcal{T}_n = Rep(GL(n|n))$ by the tensor ideal of negligible morphisms. If we consider the full subcategory $\mathcal{T}_n^+$ of $\mathcal{T}_n$ of indecomposable summands in iterated tensor products of…

Kirillov's orbit theory provides a powerful tool for the investigation of irreducible unitary representations of many classes of Lie groups. In a previous paper we used a modification hereof, called monomial linearisation, to construct a…
