We presented a systematic treatment of a Hilbert criterion for stability theory for an action of a real reductive group $G$ on a real submanifold $X$ of a K\"ahler manifold $Z$. More precisely, we suppose the action of a compact connected…
We relate some features of Bruhat-Tits buildings and their compactifications to tropical geometry. If G is a semisimple group over a suitable non-Archimedean field, the stabilizers of points in the Bruhat-Tits building of G and in some of…
We investigate orthogonal representations of compact Lie groups from the point of view of their quotient spaces, considered as metric spaces. We study metric spaces which are simultaneously quotients of different representations and…
We give necessary and sufficient conditions for both square integrability and smoothness for densities of a probability measure on a compact connected Lie group.
We discuss measures, invariant measures on definable groups, and genericity, often in an NIP (failure of the independence property) environment. We complete the proof of the third author's conjectures relating definably compact groups $G$…
In this note we classify all homogeneous spaces $G/H$ admitting a $G$-invariant $G_2$-structure, assuming that $G$ is a compact Lie group and $G$ acts effectively on $G/H$. They include a subclass of all homogeneous spaces $G/H$ with a…
We describe simply connected compact exceptional simple Lie groups in very elementary way. We first construct all simply connected compact exceptional Lie groups G concretely. Next, we find all involutive automorphisms of G, and determine…
Let $\mathcal{F} $ be a pointwise almost periodic decomposition of a compact metrizable space $X$. Then $\mathcal{F} $ is $R$-closed if and only if $\hat{\mathcal{F}} $ is usc. Moreover, if there is a finite index normal subgroup $H$ of an…
We study the classifying space of a twisted loop group $L_{\sigma}G$ where $G$ is a compact Lie group and $\sigma$ is an automorphism of $G$ of finite order modulo inner automorphisms. Equivalently, we study the $\sigma$-twisted adjoint…
In this paper we use the recent developments in the representation theory of locally compact quantum groups, to assign, to each locally compact quantum group $\mathbb{G}$, a locally compact group $\tilde \mathbb{G}$ which is the quantum…
This paper studies the behavior of Jiu-Kang Yu's tame supercuspidal representations relative to involutions of reductive p-adic groups. Symmetric space methods are used to illuminate various aspects of Yu's construction. Necessary…
Let $(V, G)$ be an orthogonal representation of a compact Lie group $G$ with nontrivial copolarity, and $\Sigma$ a fat section of $(V, G)$. If $E$ is a $G$-invariant compact convex set in $V$, then $P=E\cap\Sigma$ is a convex set in…
We describe the structure of ($0$-)simple inverse Hausdorff semitopological $\omega$-semigroups with compact maximal subgroups. In particular, we show that if $S$ is a simple inverse Hausdorff semitopological $\omega$-semigroup with compact…
We introduce a class of central symmetric infinitely divisible probability measures on compact Lie groups by lifting the characteristic exponent from the real line via the Casimir operator. The class includes Gauss, Laplace and stable-type…
The paper contains a characterization of compact groups $G\subseteq\GL(V)$, where $V$ is a finite dimensional real vector space, which have the following property \SP{}: the family of convex hulls of $G$-orbits is a semigroup with respect…
We discuss the martingales in relevance with $G$-strongly quasi-invariant states on a $C^*$-algebra $\mathcal A$, where $G$ is a separable locally compact group of $*$-automorphisms of $\mathcal A$. In the von Neumann algebra $\mathfrak A$…
Let $G$ be a countable residually finite group (for instance $\mathbb{F}_2$) and let $\overleftarrow{G}$ be a totally disconnected metric compactification of $G$ equipped with the action of $G$ by left multiplication. For every $r\geq 1$ we…
Suppose that G is a compact Abelian topological group, m is the Haar measure on G and f is a measurable function. Given (n_k), a strictly monotone increasing sequence of integers we consider the nonconventional ergodic/Birkhoff averages…
We characterise the existence of balanced and pluriclosed metrics on compact quotients of real semisimple Lie groups equipped with regular complex structures, in terms of Vogan diagrams. Consequently, such complex manifolds cannot…
We examine sufficient conditions for the dual of a topological group to be metrizable and locally compact.
