On a Hamiltonian $G$-manifold $X$, we define the notion of $G$-invariance of coisotropic A-branes $B$. Under neat assumptions, we give a Marsden-Weinstein-Meyer type construction of a coisotropic A-brane $B_{\operatorname{red}}$ on $X // G$…
We give the analogue for Hopf algebras of the polyuble Lie bialgebra construction by Fock and Rosli. By applying this construction to the Drinfeld-Jimbo quantum group, we obtain a deformation quantization $\mathbb{C}_\hslash[(N \backslash…
We investigate representations of K\"ahler groups $\Gamma = \pi_1(X)$ to a semisimple non-compact Hermitian Lie group $G$ that are deformable to a representation admitting an (anti)-holomorphic equivariant map. Such representations obey a…
We consider compact locally symmetric spaces $\Gamma\backslash G/H$ where $G/H$ is a non-compact semisimple symmetric space and $\Gamma$ is a discrete subgroup of $G$. We discuss some features of the joint spectrum of the (commutative)…
We compare the K-theories of symplectic quotients with respect to a compact connected Lie group and with respect to its maximal torus, and in particular we give a method for computing the former in terms of the latter. More specifically,…
For a semibounded sesquilinear form ${\mathfrak t}$ in a Hilbert space ${\mathfrak H}$ there exists a representing map $Q$ from ${\mathfrak H}$ to another Hilbert space ${\mathfrak K}$, such that ${\mathfrak t}[\varphi, \psi]-c(\varphi,…
To any Hamiltonian action of a reductive algebraic group $G$ on a smooth irreducible symplectic variety $X$ we associate certain combinatorial invariants: Cartan space, Weyl group, weight and root lattices. For cotangent bundles our…
The space of $G$-invariant metrics on a homogeneous space $G/H$ is in one-to-one correspondence with the set of inner products on the tangent space $\fr{m}\cong T_{{\it o}}(G/H)$, which are invariant under the isotropy representation. When…
We develop the classification of weakly symmetric pseudo--riemannian manifolds $G/H$ where $G$ is a semisimple Lie group and $H$ is a reductive subgroup. We derive the classification from the cases where $G$ is compact, and then we discuss…
In math.RT/0302174 we developed a framework to study representations of groups of the form $G((t))$, where $G$ is an algebraic group over a local field $K$. The main feature of this theory is that natural representations of groups of this…
Covariant or invariant functions under a compact linear group can be expressed in terms of functions defined in the orbit space of the group. The semialgebraic relations defining the orbit spaces of all finite coregular real linear groups…
Let $T$ be a torus of dimension $n>1$ and $M$ a compact $T-$manifold. $M$ is a GKM manifold if the set of zero dimensional orbits in the orbit space $M/T$ is zero dimensional and the set of one dimensional orbits in $M/T$ is one…
For a Lie groupoid G over a smooth manifold M we construct the adjoint action of the etale Lie groupoid G# of germs of local bisections of G on the Lie algebroid g of G. With this action, we form the associated convolution…
In this paper we describe the algebra of differential invariants for GL(n,C)-structures. This leads to classification of almost complex structures of general positions. The invariants are applied to the existence problem of…
We introduce and study equivariant Seiberg-Witten invariants for $4$-manifolds equipped with a smooth action of a finite group $G$. Our invariants come in two types: cohomological, valued in the group cohomology of $G$ and $K$-theoretic,…
Let G be a real reductive Lie group and H a closed reductive subgroup of G. We investigate the deformation of "standard" compact quotients of G/H, i.e., of quotients of G/H by discrete subgroups Gamma of G that are uniform lattices in a…
Given a group $G$ acting cocompactly on a smooth manifold $M$ by deck transformations, there is an integration map, defined recently by Kato, Kishimoto and Tsutaya, from the top-degree bounded de Rham cohomology of $M$ to the coinvariants…
Recent work of Chen He has determined through GKM methods the Borel equivariant cohomology with rational coefficients of the isotropy action on a real Grassmannian and an real oriented Grassmannian through GKM methods. In this expository…
In this paper, we compute the Gerstenhaber bracket on the Hoch-schild cohomology of $C^\infty(M)\rtimes G$ for a finite group $G$ acting on a compact manifold $M$. Using this computation, we obtain geometric descriptions for all…
We introduce a notion of a weak Poisson structure on a manifold $M$ modeled on a locally convex space. This is done by specifying a Poisson bracket on a subalgebra $\cA \subeq C^\infty(M)$ which has to satisfy a non-degeneracy condition…
