We study isometric actions of Lie $2$-groups on Riemannian groupoids by exhibiting some of their immediate properties and implications. Firstly, we prove an existence result which allows both to obtain 2-equivariant versions of the Slice…
In 1995, C.-L. Terng associated to each hyperpolar action on a compact symmetric space, a hyperpolar proper Fredholm (PF) action on a Hilbert space. This is a group action by an infinite dimensional path group and it acts on a Hilbert space…
A way of covariantizing duality symmetric actions is proposed. As examples considered are a manifestly space-time invariant duality--symmetric action for abelian gauge fields coupled to axion-dilaton fields and gravity in D=4, and a…
For a group $G$ and $\omega\in Z^{3}(G, \text{U}(1))$, an $\omega$-anomalous action on a C*-algebra $B$ is a $\text{U}(1)$-linear monoidal functor between 2-groups $\text{2-Gr}(G, \text{U}(1), \omega)\rightarrow \underline{\text{Aut}}(B)$,…
We show that the action of the group $\Gamma=\langle a,b,c\mid a^2=b^3=c^7=abc\rangle$ on its space of left-orders has exactly two minimal components.
We classify, up to orbit equivalence, the cohomogeneity one actions on the noncompact duals of the symmetric spaces G_2, SU_3 and the real oriented two-plane Grassmannians.
Given a real arrangement $A$, the complement $M(A)$ of the complexification of $A$ admits an action of $\mathbb{Z}_2$ by complex conjugation. We define the equivariant Orlik-Solomon algebra of $A$ to be the $\mathbb{Z}_2$-equivariant…
This work deals with the structure of the isometry group of pseudo-Riemannian 2-step nilmanifolds. We study the action by isometries of several groups and we construct examples showing substantial differences with the Riemannain situation;…
Biconformal gauging of the conformal group has a scale-invariant volume form, permitting a single form of the action to be invariant in any dimension. We display several 2n-dim scale-invariant polynomial actions and a dual action. We solve…
Let ${\mathcal A}$ and ${\frak A}$ be Banach algebras such that ${\mathcal A}$ is a Banach ${\frak A}$-bimodule with compatible actions. We define the product ${\cal A}\rtimes{\frak A}$, which is a strongly splitting Banach algebra…
In a previous paper, we defined a space-level version X(L) of Khovanov homology. This induces an action of the Steenrod algebra on Khovanov homology. In this paper, we describe the first interesting operation, Sq^2:Kh^{i,j}(L) ->…
In this paper we develop an abstract setup for hamiltonian group actions as follows: Starting with a continuous 2-cochain $\omega$ on a Lie algebra $h$ with values in an $h$-module $V$, we associate subalgebras $sp(h,\omega) \supeq…
Let M be a manifold carrying the action of a Lie group G, and A a Lie algebroid on M equipped with a compatible infinitesimal G-action. Out of these data we construct an equivariant Lie algebroid cohomology and prove for compact G a related…
We study polar actions with horizontal sections on the total space of certain principal bundles $G/K\to G/H$ with base a symmetric space of compact type. We classify such actions up to orbit equivalence in many cases. In particular, we…
We introduce a Hopf algebroid associated to a proper Lie group action on a smooth manifold. We prove that the cyclic cohomology of this Hopf algebroid is equal to the de Rham cohomology of invariant differential forms. When the action is…
The algebra S of symmetric invariants over the field with two elements is an unstable algebra over the Steenrod algebra A, and is isomorphic to the mod two cohomology of BO, the classifying space for vector bundles. We provide a minimal…
Let $(M, \omega)$ be a 6-dimensional closed symplectic manifold with a symplectic $S^1$-action with $M^{S^1} \neq \emptyset$ and $\dim M^{S^1} \leq 2$. Assume that $\omega$ is integral with a generalized moment map $\mu$. We first prove…
Let $A$ be a $k$-algebra where $k$ is an algebraically closed field and $G$ be a finite abelian group for which the characteristic of $k$ does not divide $|G|$. If $G$ acts on $A$ by $k$-algebra automorphisms then the action induces a…
The study of the action of the Steenrod algebra on the mod $p$ cohomology of spaces has many applications to the topological structure of those spaces. In this paper we present combinatorial formulas for the action of Steenrod operations on…
Compact symmetric spaces are probably one of the most prominent class of formal spaces, i.e. of spaces where the rational homotopy type is a formal consequence of the rational cohomology algebra. As a generalisation, it is even known that…
