Let $H$ be a linear algebraic group whose connected component $G\neq 1$ is simple and $H/G$ is cyclic. We determine the irreducible projective representations $\phi$ of $H$ such that $\phi(G)$ is irreducible and $\phi(h)$ has simple…
Let $k$ be a field and $G \subseteq Gl_n(k)$ be a finite group with $|G|^{-1} \in k$. Let $G$ act linearly on $A = k[X_1, \ldots, X_n]$ and let $A^G$ be the ring of invariant's. Suppose there does not exist any non-trivial one-dimensional…
Let $G$ be a Lie Group with a left invariant connection $\nabla^{G}$. Denote by $\g$ the Lie algebra of $G$, which is equipped with a connection $\nabla^{\g}$. Our main is to introduce the concept of the It\^o exponential and the It\^o…
To every $n$-dimensional lens space $L$, we associate a congruence lattice $\mathcal L$ in $\mathbb Z^m$, with $n=2m-1$ and we prove a formula relating the multiplicities of Hodge-Laplace eigenvalues on $L$ with the number of lattice…
For a reductive group $G$ over a ring $A$, its affine Grassmannian $\mathrm{Gr}_G$ plays important roles in a wide range of subjects and is typically defined as the \'etale sheafification of the presheaf quotient $LG/L^+G$ of the loop group…
An affine variety $X$ of dimension $\ge 2$ is called {\em flexible} if its special automorphism group SAut$(X)$ acts transitively on the smooth locus $X_{reg}$ \cite{AKZ}. Recall that the special automorphism group SAut$(X)$ is the subgroup…
This article is a report on the status of the problem of classifying the irriducibly acting subgroups of GL(n,R) that can appear as the holonomy of a torsion-free affine connection. In particular, it contains an account of the completion of…
We let S denote the ring of polynomial functions on the space of m x n matrices, and consider the action of the group GL = GL_m x GL_n via row and column operations on the matrix entries. For a GL-invariant ideal I in S we show that the…
We establish some structural results for the Witt and Grothendieck-Witt groups of schemes over $\mathbb{Z}[1/2]$, including homotopy invariance for Witt groups and a formula for the Witt and Grothendieck-Witt groups of punctured affine…
Let $\sigma_1$ and $\sigma_2$ be commuting involutions of a semisimple algebraic group $G$. This yields a $Z_2\times Z_2$-grading of $\g=\Lie(G)$, $\g=\bigoplus_{i,j=0,1}\g_{ij}$, and we study invariant-theoretic aspects of this…
Since spectral invariants were introduced in cotangent bundles via generating functions by Viterbo in the seminal paper "Symplectic topology as the geometry of generating functions," they have been defined in various contexts, mainly via…
If G is a Lie group modeled on a Fr\'echet space, let e be its neutral element and g be its Lie algebra. We show that every strong ILB-Lie group G is L^1-regular in the sense that each f in L^1([0,1],g) is the right logarithmic derivative…
If $G$ is a finite group, is a function $f:G\to\mathbb C$ determined by its sums over all cosets of cyclic subgroups of $G$? In other words, is the Radon transform on $G$ injective? This inverse problem is a discrete analogue of asking…
We prove that every non-degenerate toric variety, every homogeneous space of a connected linear algebraic group without non-constant invertible regular functions, and every variety covered by affine spaces admits a surjective morphism from…
In image and audio signal classification, a major problem is to build stable representations that are invariant under rigid motions and, more generally, to small diffeomorphisms. Translation invariant representations of signals in…
We prove a "Generic Equivalence Theorem which says that two affine morphisms $p: S \to Y$ and $q: T \to Y$ of varieties with isomorphic (closed) fibers become isomorphic under a dominant etale base change $\phi: U \to Y$. A special case is…
Let $M$ be a Riemannian manifold, $\tau: G \times M \to M$ an isometric action on $M$ of an $n$-torus $G$ and $V: M \to \mathbb R$ a bounded $G$-invariant smooth function. By $G$-invariance the Schr\"odinger operator, $P=-\hbar^2…
Left invariant affine structures in a Lie group $G$ are in one-to-one correspondence with left-symmetric algebras over its Lie algebra $\mathfrak g=T_eG$ (``over'' means that the commutator $[x,y]=xy-yx$ coincides with the Lie bracket;…

A hermitian algebra is a unital associative ${\mathbb C}$-algebra endowed with an involution such that the spectra of self-adjoint elements are contained in ${\mathbb R}$. In the case of an algebra ${\mathcal A}$ endowed with a…
