We obtain a version of the theorem of the square and a local structure result for actions of connected algebraic groups on seminormal varieties in characteristic 0, and arbitrary varieties in positive characteristics.
We consider conformal actions of solvable Lie groups on closed Lorentzian manifolds. With anterior results in which we addressed similar questions for semi-simple Lie group actions, this work contributes to the understanding of the identity…
We classify real-analytic $\mathrm{SL}(n,\mathbb{R})$-actions on closed manifolds of dimension m for $3\leq n\leq m\leq2n-3$, which extends Fisher--Melnick's work for $\mathrm{SL}(n,\mathbb{R})$-actions on closed n-manifolds. Additionally,…
To construct an N-representable time-dependent density-functional theory, a generalization to the time domain of the Levy-Lieb (LL) constrained search algorithm is required. That the action is only stationary in the Dirac-Frenkel…
Let $G$ be a finite group isomorphic to $SL_n(q)$ or $SU_n(q)$ for some prime power $q$. In this paper, we give an explicit description of the action of automorphisms of $G$ on the set of its irreducible complex characters. This is done by…
Given a smooth partial action $\alpha$ of a Lie groupoid $G$ on a smooth manifold $M,$ we provide necessary and sufficient conditions for $\alpha$ to be globalizable with smooth globalization. As an application, we provide results on the…
Let $\mathbf G$ be a connected reductive algebraic group over an algebraically closed field, and let $s\in\mathbf G$ be a semisimple element. We show that the centraliser of $s$ is the semi-direct product of its identity component by its…
We prove that for any second-countable, locally compact group $G$, any continuous $G$-action on the primitive ideal space of a separable, nuclear $\mathrm{C}^{\ast}$-algebra $B$ such that $B \cong B\otimes\mathcal{K}\otimes\mathcal{O}_2$ is…
Let $\mathcal G$ be a Lie supergroup with Lie superalgebra $\mathfrak g$, $\mathcal M$ a supermanifold and $\mathrm{Vec}(\mathcal M)$ the set of vector fields on $\mathcal M$. Let $\lambda:\mathfrak g\rightarrow \mathrm{Vec}(\mathcal M)$ be…
Let X be a Hausdorff topological group and G a locally compact subgroup of X. We show that the natural action of G on X is proper in the sense of R. Palais. This is applied to prove that there exists a closed set F of X such that FG=X and…
An arbitrary group action on an algebra $R$ results in an ideal $\mathfrak{r}$ of $R$. This ideal $\mathfrak{r}$ fits into the classical radical theory, and will be called the radical of the group action. If $R$ is a noetherian algebra with…
Let G denote a connected, quasi-split reductive group over a field F that is complete with respect to a discrete valuation and that has a perfect residue field. Under mild hypotheses, we produce a subset of the Lie algebra g(F) that picks…
We show that if $G$ is a real semi-simple Lie group, and $\Gamma$ is a discrete subgroup of $G$ containing a subgroup $\Sigma$ acting ergodically (in a strong sense) on the Furstenberg boundary of $G$, then $\Gamma$ is not isomorphic to a…
Given a group G, we construct, in a canonical way, an inverse semigroup S(G) associated to G. The actions of S(G) are shown to be in one-to-one correspondence with the partial actions of G, both in the case of actions on a set, and that of…
In this paper, we introduce a notion of a self-similar action of a group $G$ on a $k$-graph $\Lambda$, and associate it a universal C*-algebra $\O_{G,\Lambda}$. We prove that $\O_{G,\Lambda}$ can be realized as the Cuntz-Pimsner algebra of…
We investigate the structure of the most general actions with symmetry group $G$, spontaneously broken down to a subgroup $H$. We show that the only possible terms in the Lagrangian density that, although not $G$-invariant, yield…
Let $M$ be a monoid, $\mathscr{C}$ a category with pullbacks and $X$ an object of $\mathscr{C}$. We introduce the notion of a partial action $\alpha$ of $M$ on $X$ and study the globalization question for $\alpha$. If $\alpha$ admits a…
Let $G$ be a connected linear algebraic group over a number field $K$, let $\Gamma$ be a finitely generated Zariski dense subgroup of $G(K)$ and let $Z\subseteq G(K)$ be a thin set, in the sense of Serre. We prove that, if…
Our main result is the following: let X be a normal affine toric surface without torus factor. Then there exists a non-normal affine toric surface X' with automorphism group isomorphic to the automorphism group of X if and only if X is…
We present a non-standard proof of the fact that the existence of a local (i.e. restricted to a point) characteristic-zero, semi-parametric lifting for a variety defined by the zero locus of polynomial equations over the integers is…
