We consider the unitary group $\U$ of complex, separable, infinite-dimensional Hilbert space as a discrete group. It is proved that, whenever $\U$ acts by isometries on a metric space, every orbit is bounded. Equivalently, $\U$ is not the…

The main purpose of the paper is to prove that if a compact Riemannian manifold admits a gradient $\rho$-Einstein soliton such that the gradient Einstein potential is a non-trivial conformal vector field, then the manifold is isometric to…

A Riemannian manifold $(M,\rho)$ is called Einstein if the metric $\rho$ satisfies the condition $\Ric (\rho)=c\cdot \rho$ for some constant $c$. This paper is devoted to the investigation of $G$-invariant Einstein metrics with additional…

We show the contractibility of spaces of invariant Riemannian metrics of positive scalar curvature on compact connected manifolds of dimension at least two, with and without boundary and equipped with compact Lie group actions. On manifolds…

We compute the full isometry group of any left invariant metric on a simply connected, non-unimodular Lie group of dimension three. As an application, we determine the index of symmetry of such metrics and prove that the singularities of…

In this paper we give a geometric proof of the Karpelevich's theorem that asserts that a semisimple Lie subgroup of isometries, of a symmetric space of non compact type, has a totally geodesic orbit. In fact, this is equivalent to a…

We propose a notion of isometric coaction of a compact quantum group on a compact quantum metric space in the framework of Rieffel where the metric structure is given by a Lipnorm. We prove the existence of a quantum isometry group for…

Let $G$ be a non-compact simple Lie group with Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$. Denote with $m(\mathfrak{g})$ the dimension of the smallest non-trivial $\mathfrak{g}$-module with an invariant non-degenerate symmetric bilinear form. For an…

The only known examples of noncompact Einstein homogeneous spaces are standard solvmanifolds (special solvable Lie groups endowed with a left invariant metric), and according to a long standing conjecture, they might be all. The…

We prove that complete warped product Einstein metrics with isometric bases, simply connected space form fibers, and the same Ricci curvature and dimension are isometric. In the compact case we also prove that the warping functions must be…

We compute the (1,1)-Aeppli cohomology of compact simply-connected Lie groups. From this, we deduce that the Bismut flat metrics on the compact Bismut flat manifolds with finite fundamental group are globally stable for the pluriclosed…

We investigate the Einstein equation with a positive cosmological constant for $4n+4$-dimensional metrics on bundles over Quaternionic K\"ahler base manifolds whose fibers are 4-dimensional Bianchi IX manifolds. The Einstein equations are…

The article is devoted to the question whether the orbit space of a compact linear group is a topological manifold and a homological manifold. In the paper, the case of a simple three-dimensional group is considered. An upper bound is…

We prove that any polar action on a separable Hilbert space by a connected Hilbert Lie group does not have exceptional orbits. This generalizes a result of Berndt, Console and Olmos in the finite dimensional Euclidean case. As an…

It is well-known that no non-Kac compact quantum group can faithfully act on $C(X)$ for a classical, compact Hausdorff space $X$. However, in this article we show that this is no longer true if we go to non-compact spaces and non-compact…

We prove that a compact quantum group with faithful Haar state which has a faithful action on a compact space must be a Kac algebra, with bounded antipode and the square of the antipode being identity. The main tool in proving this is the…

We provide a short proof for the theorem that two compact Riemannian manifolds are isomorphic if and only there exists an order isomorphism which intertwines between the heat semigroups on the manifolds.

We prove that the orbits of a polar action of a compact Lie group on a compact rank one symmetric space are tautly embedded with respect to Z_2-coefficients.

In this note we prove three rigidity results for Einstein manifolds with bounded covering geometry. (1) An almost flat manifold $(M,g)$ must be flat if it is Einstein, i.e. $\operatorname{Ric}_g=\lambda g$ for some real number $\lambda$.…

We describe the full group of isometries of absolutely simple, compact, connected real Lie groups, of SO(4) and of U(n), endowed with suitable bi-invariant Riemannian metrics.
