We present a general method to obtain a closed, finite formula for the exponential map from the Lie algebra to the Lie group, for the defining representation of the orthogonal groups. Our method is based on the Hamilton-Cayley theorem and…
The well known analytical formula for $SU(2)$ matrices $U = \exp(i \vec \tau \!\cdot\! \vec \varphi\,) = \cos|\vec \varphi\,| + i\vec \tau \!\cdot\! \hat\varphi \, \sin|\vec \varphi\,|$\\ is extended to the $SU(3)$ group with eight real…
A finite expansion of the exponential map for a $N\times N$ matrix is presented. The method uses the Cayley-Hamilton theorem for writing the higher matrix powers in terms of the first N-1 ones. The resulting sums over the corresponding…
Formulas for the expansion of arbitrary invariant group functions in terms of the characters for the Sp(2N), SO(2N+1), and SO(2N) groups are derived using a combinatorial method. The method is similar to one used by Balantekin to expand…
Hamiltonian matrices appear in a variety or problems in physics and engineering, mostly related to the time evolution of linear dynamical systems as for instance in ion beam optics. The time evolution is given by symplectic transfer…
We develop a new, group-theoretic approach to bounding the exponent of matrix multiplication. There are two components to this approach: (1) identifying groups G that admit a certain type of embedding of matrix multiplication into the group…

Let {\sigma}\otimes{\pi} be a supercuspidal representation of SO(2n) \times GL(2n) over a p-adic field with {\pi} selfdual, where SO(2n) stands for a quasisplit even special orthogonal group. In order to study its normalized parabolic…
We study the matrix factorization problem associated with an SO(2) spinning top by using the algebro-geometric approach. We derive the explicit expressions in terms of Riemann theta functions and discus some related problems including a…
We develope a new scheme for the construction of explicit complex-valued proper biharmonic functions on Riemannian Lie groups. We exploit this and manufacture many infinite series of uncountable families of new solutions on the special…
We study the structure of the algebra of polynomial invariants for the usual conjugation action of the complex special, SO_n, and general, O_n, orthogonal group on the space of traceless n by n complex matrices. (Note that these two…
There are two well-known ways of describing elements of the rotation group SO$(m)$. First, according to the Cartan-Dieudonn\'e theorem, every rotation matrix can be written as an even number of reflections. And second, they can also be…
This work identifies a solvable (in the sense that spectral correlation functions can be expressed in terms of orthogonal polynomials), rotationally invariant random matrix ensemble with a logarithmic weakly confining potential. The…
A variational integrator of arbitrarily high-order on the special orthogonal group $SO(n)$ is constructed using the polar decomposition and the constrained Galerkin method. It has the advantage of avoiding the second-order derivative of the…
This paper is devoted to the representations of the groups $SO (2,1)$ and $ISO (2,1)$. Those groups have an important role in cosmology, elementary particle theory and mathematical physics. Irreducible unitary representations of the…
We provide a new tableau model from which one can easily deduce the characters of finite-dimensional irreducible polynomial representations of the special orthogonal group $SO_n(\mathbb{C})$. This model originates from the representation…
All groups are 2-generator. For any prime-power q, Theorem 1 constructs a solvable matrix group over a quotient of a Laurent polynomial ring. This group is closely related to a group of exponent q as shown in Theorems 2 & 3 . Theorem 4 in…
Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic $p$ and let $\mathbb{G}_a$ denote the additive group of $k$. Let $n \geq 1$ and let ${\rm Mat}(n, k[T])^E$ denote the set of all exponential matrices of ${\rm Mat}(n,…
