In this survey, we discuss a series of linearization problems--for Poisson structures, Lie algebroids, and Lie groupoids. The last problem involves a conjecture on the structure of proper groupoids. Attempting to prove this by the method of…

Loday's dendriform algebras and its siblings pre-Lie and zinbiel have received attention over the past two decades. In recent literature, there has been interest in a generalization of these types of algebra in which each individual…

Given a vector space with an action of a semi-simple Lie algebra, we can try to "categorify" this representation, which means finding a category where the generators of the Lie algebra act by functors. Such categorical representations arise…

We provide a novel construction of quantized universal enveloping $*$-algebras of real semisimple Lie algebras, based on Letzter's theory of quantum symmetric pairs. We show that these structures can be `integrated', leading to a…

Beginning with a skew-symmetric matrix, we define a certain Poisson--Lie group. Its Poisson bracket can be viewed as a cocycle perturbation of the linear (or "Lie-Poisson") Poisson bracket. By analyzing this Poisson structure, we gather…

We study the Frobenius-Lusztig kernel for quantum affine algebras at root of unity of small orders that are usually excluded in literature. These cases are somewhat degenerate and we find that the kernel is in fact mostly related to…

In a previous paper it was shown that a certain family of varieties suggested by Lusztig, is not enough to construct all irreducible complex representations of reductive groups over finite rings coming from the ring of integers in a local…

Many relevant applications of group theoretical methods to physical problems are related, in some manner, to classification schemes by means of symmetry groups. In these schemes, irreducible representations of a Lie group have to be…

In this paper, we construct a new family of generalization of the positive representations of split-real quantum groups based on the degeneration of the Casimir operators acting as zero on some Hilbert spaces. It is motivated by a new…

Automorphic Lie Algebras arise in the context of reduction groups introduced in the late 1970s in the field of integrable systems. They are subalgebras of Lie algebras over a ring of rational functions, defined by invariance under the…

We consider the finite Weyl groups of classical type -- $W(A_{r})$ for $r \geq 1$, $W(B_{r}) = W(C_{r})$ for $r \geq 2$, and $W(D_{r})$ for $r \geq 4$ -- as supergroups in which the reflections are of odd superdegree. Viewing the…

A major direction in the theory of cluster algebras is to construct (quantum) cluster algebra structures on the (quantized) coordinate rings of various families of varieties arising in Lie theory. We prove that all algebras in a very large…

For various series of complex semi-simple Lie algebras $\fg (t)$ equipped with irreducible representations $V(t)$, we decompose the tensor powers of $V(t)$ into irreducible factors in a uniform manner, using a tool we call {\it diagram…

We obtain a complete classification of hypercomplex manifolds, on which a compact group of automorphisms acts transitively. The description of the spaces as well as the proofs of our results use only the structure theory of reductive…

In this paper, we establish a complete structural description of flat Lorentzian Lie groups, i.e., Lie groups endowed with a flat left invariant Lorentzian metric, thereby resolving a long-standing open problem in the theory of…

We describe a class (called regular) of invariant generalized complex structures on a real semisimple Lie group G. The problem reduces to the description of admissible pairs (\gk, \omega), where \gk is an appropriate regular subalgebra of…

This work focuses on non-compact groups and their applications to quantum gravity, mainly through the use of tensor operators. First, the mathematical theory of tensor operators for a Lie group is recast in a new way which is used to…

The Chen groups of a finitely-presented group G are the lower central series quotients of its maximal metabelian quotient, G/G''. The direct sum of the Chen groups is a graded Lie algebra, with bracket induced by the group commutator. If G…

Let $G$ be a connected reductive algebraic group over an algebraically closed field $\mathbf{k}$, and let Lie$(G)$ be its associated Lie algebra. In his series of papers on unipotent elements in small characteristic, Lusztig defined a…

Let T be the circle and A be a T-C*-algebra. Then the T-equivariant K-theory of A is a module over the representation ring of the circle. The latter is a Laurent polynomial ring. Using the support of the module as an invariant, and…
