Geodesic orbit spaces are those Riemannian homogeneous spaces (G/H,g) whose geodesics are orbits of one-parameter subgroups of G. We classify the simply connected geodesic orbit spaces where G is a compact Lie group of rank two. We prove…
We use a mock galaxy catalogue based upon the Millennium Run simulation to investigate the intrinsic spatial properties of compact groups of galaxies. We find that approximately 30% of galaxy associations identified in our mock catalogue…
The paper is devoted to the study of geodesic orbit Riemannian spaces that could be characterize by the property that any geodesic is an orbit of a 1-parameter group of isometries. In particular, we discuss some important totally geodesic…
We consider compact matrix quantum groups whose $N$-dimensional fundamental representation decomposes into an $(N-1)$-dimensional and a one-dimensional subrepresentation. Even if we know that the compact matrix quantum group associated to…
This paper considers coorbit spaces parametrized by mixed, weighted Lebesgue spaces with respect to the quasi-regular representation of the semi-direct product of Euclidean space and a suitable matrix dilation group. The class of dilation…
A spectral sequence calculating the homology groups of some spaces of maps equivariant under compact group actions is described. For the main example, we calculate the rational homology groups of spaces of even and odd maps $S^m \to S^M$,…
A smooth cuboid can be identified with a $3\times 3$ matrix of linear forms, with coefficients in a field $K$, whose determinant describes a smooth cubic in the projective plane. To each such matrix one can associate a group scheme over…

We consider indecomposable representations of the Klein four group over a field of characteristic $2$ and of a cyclic group of order $pm$ with $p,m$ coprime over a field of characteristic $p$. For each representation we explicitly describe…
We classify the finite groups of orthogonal transformations in 4-space, and we study these groups from the viewpoint of their geometric action, using polar orbit polytopes. For one type of groups (the toroidal groups), we develop a new…
In this paper, we study the configuration space of orbits, a generalization of the configuration space of points but for algebraic varieties that are acted by an algebraic reductive group. The main objective of this work is to study the…
Let G be a semi-simple Lie group and Q a parabilic subgroup of its complexification G^\mathbb C, then Z:=G^\mathbb C/Q is a compact complex homogeneous manifold. Moreover, G as well as K^\mathbb C, the complexification of the maximal…
We study polar orbitopes, i.e. convex hulls of orbits of a polar representation of a compact Lie group. The face structure is studied by means of the gradient momentum map and it is shown that every face is exposed and is again a polar…
There are various statements in the physics literature about the stratification of quantum states, for example into orbits of a unitary group, and about generalized differentiable structures on it. Our aim is to clarify and make precise…
A notion of degeneration of elements in groups is introduced. It is used to parametrize the orbits in a finite abelian group under its full automorphism group by a finite distributive lattice. A pictorial description of this lattice leads…
We study the topology of orbits of dynamical systems defined by finite-dimensional representations of nilpotent Lie groups. Thus, the following dichotomy is established: either the interior of the set of regular points is dense in the…

We study orbit-finite systems of linear equations, in the setting of sets with atoms. Our principal contribution is a decision procedure for solvability of such systems. The procedure works for every field (and even commutative ring) under…
Crystallographic groups describe the symmetries of crystals and other repetitive structures encountered in nature and the sciences. These groups include the wallpaper and space groups. We derive linear and nonlinear representations of…
