This paper presents algebraic methods for the study of polynomial relative invariants, when the group G formed by the symmetries and relative symmetries is a compact Lie group. We deal with the case when the subgroup H of symmetries is…

Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a vector space and $[,],[,]'$ be a pair of Lie brackets on $\mathfrak{g}$. By definition they are compatible if $[,]+[,]'$ is again a Lie bracket. Such pairs play important role in bihamiltonian and $r$-matrix…

We provide a systematic and in-depth study of compact group actions with the Rokhlin property. It is show that the Rokhlin property is generic in some cases of interest; the case of totally disconnected groups being the most satisfactory…

We develop a theory of equivariant factorization algebras on varieties with an action of a connected algebraic group $G$, extending the definitions of Francis-Gaitsgory [FG] and Beilinson-Drinfeld [BD1] to the equivariant setting. We define…

We characterize group compactifications of discrete groups for which there exists an equivariant retraction onto the boundary. In particular, we prove an equivariant analogue of Brouwer's No-Retraction theorem for large classes of group…

We analyze in detail the equivariant supersymmetry of the $G/G$ model. In spite of the fact that this supersymmetry does not model the infinitesimal action of the group of gauge transformations, localization can be established by standard…

We develop a semigroup approach to representation theory for pro-Lie groups satisfying suitable amenability conditions. As an application of our approach, we establish a one-to-one correspondence between equivalence classes of unitary…

Let $F$ be a non-archimedean local field of characteristic different from $2$ and $G$ be either an odd special orthogonal group ${\rm SO}_{2r+1}(F)$ or a symplectic group ${\rm Sp}_{2r}(F)$. In this paper, we establish the local converse…

Given a set of prime numbers S, we localise equivariant bivariant Kasparov theory at S and compare this localisation with Kasparov theory by an exact sequence. More precisely, we define the localisation at S to be KK^G(A,B) tensored with…

Let $G$ be a compact, connected, and simply-connected Lie group, equipped with an anti-involution $a_G$ which is the composition of a Lie group involutive automorphism $\sigma_G$ and the group inversion. We view $(G, a_G)$ as a Real $(G,…

The goal of this paper is proving the existence and then localizing global fixed points for nilpotent groups generated by homeomorphisms of the plane satisfying a certain Lipschitz condition. The condition is inspired in a classical result…

Based on the work of Adams and Stuck as well as on the work of Zeghib, we classify the Lie groups which can act isometrically and locally effectively on Lorentzian manifolds of finite volume. In the case that the corresponding Lie algebra…

The purpose of this article is to give an exposition of topological properties of spaces of homomorphisms from certain finitely generated discrete groups to Lie groups $G$, and to describe their connections to classical representation…

Consider a proper cocompact CAT(0) space X. We give a complete algebraic characterisation of amenable groups of isometries of X. For amenable discrete subgroups, an even narrower description is derived, implying Q-linearity in the…

Let G be a compact Lie group. Let M be a smooth G-manifold and V --> M be an oriented G-equivariant vector bundle. One defines the spaces of equivariant forms with generalized coefficients on V and M. An equivariant Thom form $\theta$ on V…

In this paper we prove a version of the Gohberg lemma on compact Lie groups giving an estimate from below for the distance from a given operator to the set of compact operators on compact Lie groups. As a consequence, we prove several…

We conjecture that if $G$ is a simple compact Lie group with trivial center, then every $d$-variable non-constant word map with coefficients in $G$ defines a non-constant function on $G^d$. We prove the conjecture for $A_r$, $B_r$, $E_6$,…

The purpose of this article is to present a "Groupoid proof" to the Lefschetz fixed point formula for elliptic complexes. We shall define a "relative version" of tangent groupoid, describe the corresponding pseudodifferential calculi and…

For a reductive group scheme over a regular semi-local ring, we prove an equivarinat version of the Gersten conjecture. We draw some interesting consequences for the representation rings of such reductive group schemes. We also prove the…

We study locally compact contractive local groups, that is, locally compact local groups with a contractive pseudo-automorphism. We prove that if such an object is locally connected, then it is locally isomorphic to a Lie group. We also…
