The Borel-Weil-Bott theorem can be used to decompose the cohomology of twisted sheaves of holomorphic forms on the complex Grassmannian into irreducible representations of the general linear group. By analyzing this decomposition, we…

A classification of the possible symmetric principal bundles with a compact gauge group, a compact symmetry group and a base manifold which is regularly foliated by the orbits of the symmetry group is derived. A generalization of Wang's…

In the spirit of Glauberman's fundamental work in B-loops and Moufang loops, we prove Cauchy and strong Lagrange theorems for Bol loops of odd order. We also establish necessary conditions for the existence of a simple Bol loop of odd…

The model with the fermions coupled in the non - minimal way to the gauge theory of Lorentz group is considered. The lattice regularization is suggested. It is argued that this model may exist in the phase with broken chiral symmetry and…

We describe a construction of Gromov-Witten invariants for flag varieties and use it to give a presentation for the quantum cohomology ring, by extending the ideas used by Bertram in the case of Grassmannians. This provides a proof for the…

We extend Borel's theorem on the dominance of word maps from semisimple algebraic groups to some perfect groups. In another direction, we generalize Borel's theorem to some words with constants. We also consider the surjectivity problem for…

We study the structure of an algebraic supergroup $\mathbb{G}$ and establish the Borel-Weil theorem for $\mathbb{G}$ to give a systematic construction of all simple supermodules over an arbitrary field. Especially when $\mathbb{G}$ has a…

The aim of this paper is to describe the topological $K$-ring, in terms of generators and relations of a flag Bott manifold. We apply our results to give a presentation for the topological K-ring and hence the Grothendieck ring of algebraic…

The number of Borel orbits in polarizations (the symmetric variety $SL(n)/S(GL(p)\times GL(q))$) is analyzed, various (bivariate) generating functions are found. Relations to lattice path combinatorics are explored.

We show that each orbit of a Borel subgroup $B_{n-1}$ of GL(n-1) (respectively SO(n-1)) on the flag variety of GL(n) (respectively of SO(n)) is a bundle over a $B_{n-1}$-orbit on a generalized flag variety of GL(n-1) (respectively SO(n-1)),…

We study a variety of questions centered around the computation of cohomology of line bundles on the incidence correspondence (the partial flag variety parametrizing pairs consisting of a point in projective space and a hyperplane…

We study automorphism groups of randomizations of separable structures, with focus on the $\aleph_0$-categorical case. We give a description of the automorphism group of the Borel randomization in terms of the group of the original…

We extend the short presentation due to [Borel '53] of the cohomology ring of a generalized flag manifold to a relatively short presentation of the cohomology of any of its Schubert varieties. Our result is stated in a root-system uniform…

We define the odd symplectic grassmannians and flag manifolds, which are smooth projective varieties equipped with an action of the odd symplectic group and generalizing the usual symplectic grassmannians and flag manifolds. Contrary to the…

The geometry of elliptic fibrations translates to the physics of gauge theories in F-theory. We systematically develop the dictionary between arithmetic structures on elliptic curves as well as desingularized elliptic fibrations and…

In this announcement we explain how to extend the von Neumann algebra definition of fusion to the case of twisted loop groups. This project completes research started by my student Robert Verrill in his 2001 Cambridge Ph.D. thesis.

We consider the conjugation-action of an arbitrary upper-block parabolic subgroup of ${\rm GL}_n(\mathbf{C})$, especially of the Borel subgroup $B$ and of the standard unipotent subgroup $U$ of the latter on the nilpotent cone of complex…

A Schubert variety in the complete flag manifold $GL_n/B$ is Levi-spherical if the action of a Borel subgroup in a Levi subgroup of a standard parabolic has a dense orbit. We give a combinatorial classification of these Schubert varieties.…

We follow the dual approach to Coxeter systems and show for Weyl groups a criterium which decides whether a set of reflections is generating the group depending on the root and the coroot lattice. Further we study special generating sets…

Let $G$ be a complex connected reductive algebraic group. Let $G/B$ denote the flag variety of $G$. Let $H$ be an algebraic subgroup of $G$ such that the set ${\bf H}(G/B)$ of the $H$-orbits in $G/B$ is finite ; $H$ is said to be {\it…
