We describe the admissible coadjoint orbits of a compact connected Lie group and their spin-c quantization.

Orbits of coadjoint representations of classical compact Lie groups have a lot of applications. They appear in representation theory, geometrical quantization, theory of magnetism, quantum optics etc. As geometric objects the orbits were…

In this article, we study adjoint orbits of the Jacobi group, and in particular describe nilpotent orbits explicitely.

Consider a compact Lie group and a closed subgroup. Generalizing a result of Klyachko, we give a necessary and sufficient criterion for a coadjoint orbit of the subgroup to be contained in the projection of a given coadjoint orbit of the…

We present the classification of coadjoint orbits of the unitriangular group $UT(7, K)$. We also describe subregular orbits of $UT(n, K)$ for an arbitrary $n$.

In this paper we give an effective method for finding a unique representative of each orbit of the adjoint and coadjoint action of the real affine orthogonal group on its Lie algebra. In both cases there are orbits which have a modulus that…

We provide detailed calculations for the classification of representations of compact simple Lie groups with non-empty boundary in the orbit space, first announced in a previous paper [arXiv:2112.00513] by the same authors.

We introduce some compact orbifolds on which there is a certain finite group action having a simple convex polytope as the orbit space. We compute the orbifold fundamental group and homology groups of these orbifolds. We calculate the…

We study the structure of the coadjoint orbits of the 2+1 Poincar\'e group, using a matricial representation of the group. We also obtain the orbits connected to irreducible representations of the group. Finally we obtain coherent states…

In the paper "Aquino, C., Jim\'enez, R., Mijangos, M., Morales Mel\'endez, Q.: On Invariant (co)homology of a group, preprint" are introduced two groups generated by the orbits of an action of a group on another group by automorphisms. One…

We study coadjoint orbitopes, i.e. convex hulls of coadjoint orbits of a compact Lie group. We show that all the faces of such an orbitope are exposed. The face structure is studied by means of the momentum map and it is shown that every…

Curt McMullen showed that every compact orbit for the action of the diagonal group on the space of lattices contains a well-rounded lattice. We extend this to all closed orbits.

These notes treat a momentum map associated to the Heisenberg group. We classify the coadjoint orbits of the Heisenberg group and show that the cocycle associated to the momentum map becomes a value of the modulus of a coadjoint orbit. We…
