We construct an explicit Harish-Chandra isomorphism, from the quantum Hamiltonian reduction of the algebra D_q(GL_2) of quantum differential operators on GL_2, to the spherical double affine Hecke algebra associated to GL2. The isomorphism…

We investigate the existence of left-invariant closed G$_2$-structures on seven-dimensional non-solvable Lie groups, providing the first examples of this type. When the Lie algebra has trivial Levi decomposition, we show that such a…

We study deformations of orbit closures for the action of a connected semisimple group $G$ on its Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$, especially when $G$ is the special linear group. The tools we use are on the one hand the invariant Hilbert scheme…

We consider the action of a real linear algebraic group $G$ on a smooth, real affine algebraic variety $M\subset \R^n$, and study the corresponding left regular $G$-representation on the Banach space $C_0(M)$ of continuous, complex valued…

Denote by $SL_3(\mathbb R)$ the special linear group of degree 3 over the real numbers, $A$ the subgroup consisting of the diagonal matrices with positive entries. In this paper, we study the algebraic and analytic properties of the…

The Harish-Chandra Fourier transform, $f\mapsto\mathcal{H}f,$ is a linear topological algebra isomorphism of the spherical (Schwartz) convolution algebra $\mathcal{C}^{p}(G//K)$ (where $K$ is a maximal compact subgroup of any arbitrarily…

Let $G$ be a semi-simple real Lie group of real rank one and $\Gamma$ be a discrete subgroup in $G$ such that $\Gamma \backslash G$ has finite volume. We introduce a new group $C^*$-algebra $C^*_r(G, \Gamma)$, which provides a natural…

Equivariant Loday constructions are a means for providing geometric interpretations of equivariant homology theories. They are usually constructed for a simplicial $G$-set and a $G$-Tambara functor. We study situations where -- depending on…

Let $G$ be a locally compact group and also let $H$ be a compact subgroup of $G$. It is shown that, if $\mu$ is a relatively invariant measure on $G/H$ then there is a well-defined convolution on $L^1(G/H,\mu)$ such that the Banach space…

The classical Cartan-Helgason theorem characterises finite-dimensional spherical representations of reductive Lie groups in terms of their highest weights. We generalise the theorem to the case of a reductive symmetric supergroup pair…

Let $k$ be a nonperfect separably closed field. Let $G$ be a (possibly non-connected) reductive group defined over $k$. We study rationality problems for Serre's notion of complete reducibility of subgroups of $G$. In our previous work, we…

To any finite group G of automorphisms of a symplectic vector space V we associate a new multi-parameter deformation, H_k, of the smash product of G with the polynomial algebra on V. The algebra H_k, called a symplectic reflection algebra,…

Let $\frak{g} = \frak{k} +\frak{p}$ be a complexified Cartan decomposition of a complex semisimple Lie algebra $\frak{g}$ and let $K$ be the subgroup of the adjoint group of $\frak{g}$ corresponding to $\frak{k} $. If $H$ is an irreducible…

Let Z be an algebraic homogeneous space Z=G/H attached to real reductive Lie group G. We assume that Z is real spherical, i.e., minimal parabolic subgroups have open orbits on Z. For such spaces we investigate their large scale geometry and…

The symmetries described by Pin groups are the result of combining a finite number of discrete reflections in (hyper)planes. The current work shows how an analysis using geometric algebra provides a picture complementary to that of the…

In this paper, we introduce the Harish-Chandra homomorphism for the quantum superalgebra $\mathrm{U}_q(\mathfrak{g})$ associated with a simple basic Lie superalgebra $\mathfrak{g}$ and give an explicit description of its image. We use it to…

Let $G/H$ be a Galois symmetric space for an unramified quadratic extension of a locally compact field $F$, where the group $H$ is semisimple, simply connected, defined and split over $F$. We prove that there exists a subgroup $\Gamma =…

We study analogues of the notions from Lie theory of Levi subgroup and Levi decomposition, in the case of groups G definable in an o-minimal expansion of a real closed field. With suitable definitions, we prove that G has a unique maximal…

The isomorphism between the reduction algebra and the invariant differential operators on G/H is sketched.

With each antiholomorphic involution $\sigma $ of a connected complex semisimple Lie group $G$ we associate an automorphism $\epsilon_\sigma$ of the Dynkin diagram. The definition of $\epsilon_\sigma$ is given in terms of the Satake diagram…
