Let $M$ be a finite volume analytic pseudo-Riemannian manifold that admits an isometric $G$-action with a dense orbit, where $G$ is a connected non-compact simple Lie group. For low-dimensional $M$, i.e. $\dim(M) < 2\dim(G)$, when the…

In this paper we give a procedure to construct hypersymplectic structures on $R^{4n}$ beginning with affine-symplectic data on $R^{2n}$. These structures are shown to be invariant by a 3-step nilpotent double Lie group and the resulting…

A compact Lie group G and a faithful complex representation V determine a Sato-Tate measure, defined as the direct image of Haar measure on G with respect to the character of V. We give a necessary and sufficient condition for a Sato-Tate…

On an open, connected symplectic manifold $(M,\omega)$, the group of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms forms an infinite-dimensional Fr\'echet Lie group with Lie algebra $C^{\infty}_c(M)$ and adjoint action given by pullbacks. We prove that this…

Let K be a simple and simply connected compact Lie group. We call a (twisted) quasi-Hamiltonian K-manifold M a quasi-Hamiltonian model space if it is multiplicity free and its momentum map is surjective. We explicitly identify the subgroups…

When $G$ is a connected compact Lie group, and $\pi$ is a closed surface group, then $Hom(\pi,G)$ contains an open dense $Out(\pi)$-invariant subset which is a smooth symplectic manifold. This symplectic structure is $Out(\pi)$-invariant…

In noncommutative geometry a `Lie algebra' or bidirectional bicovariant differential calculus on a finite group is provided by a choice of an ad-stable generating subset C stable under inversion. We study the associated Killing form. For…

We determine all Ricci flat left invariant Lorentzian metrics on simply connected 2-step nilpotent Lie groups. We show that the $2k+1$-dimensional Heisenberg Lie group $H_{2k+1}$ carries a Ricci flat left invariant Lorentzian metric if and…

Let $M$ be a compact connected pseudo-Riemannian manifold on which a solvable connected Lie group $G$ of isometries acts transitively. We show that $G$ acts almost freely on $M$ and that the metric on $M$ is induced by a bi-invariant…

The maximal complexifications adapted to the Levi Civita connection for a distinguished one-parameter family of left-invariant metrics on a real semisimple Lie group G are determined. For G = SL(2,R) their realizations as invariant Riemann…

We prove that a topological Clifford semigroup $S$ is metrizable if and only if $S$ is an $M$-space and the set $E=\{e\in S:ee=e\}$ of idempotents of $S$ is a metrizable $G_\delta$-set in $S$. The same metrization criterion holds also for…

This paper is devoted to geodesic completeness of left-invariant metrics for real and complex Lie groups. We start by establishing the Euler-Arnold formalism in the holomorphic setting. We study the real Lie group $\mathrm{SL}(2,…

This note is concerned with the geometric classification of connected Lie groups of dimension three or less, endowed with left-invariant Riemannian metrics. On the one hand, assembling results from the literature, we give a review of the…

Let $(G,\kappa)$ be a compact connected Lie group endowed with a biinvariant Riemannian metric, and let $\tilde{G}$ be the complexification of $G$. We apply Grauert tube techniques to the near-diagonal scaling asymptotics of certain…

In this paper, left-invariant almost contact metric structures on three-dimensional non-unimodular Lie groups are investigated. It is proved that for every Riemannian Lie group, there is one of these structures. In addition, left-invariant…

We show that a left-invariant metric g on a nilpotent Lie group N is a soliton metric if and only if a matrix U and vector v associated the manifold (N,g) satisfy the matrix equation Uv = [1], where [1] is a vector with every entry a one.…

Each group G of nxn permutation matrices has a corresponding permutation polytope, P(G):=conv(G) in R^{nxn}. We relate the structure of P(G) to the transitivity of G. In particular, we show that if G has t nontrivial orbits, then…
