In this paper, we give an expository presentation of the paper of Olivier Mathieu. The paper of Mathieu proves that a Lie group-theoretic conjecture implies the Jacobian Conjecture. To give Mathieu's proof, we first review the required…
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…
For a representation of a Lie algebra, one can construct a diagram of the representation, i. e. a directed graph with edges labeled by matrix elements of the representation. This article explains how to use these diagrams to describe normal…
We prove that the Heisenberg groups can be distinguished from the other connected and simply connected Lie groups via their group $C^*$-algebras. The main step of the proof is a characterization of the nilpotent Lie groups among the…
A Lie system is a system of differential equations describing the integral curves of a $t$-dependent vector field taking values in a finite-dimensional real Lie algebra of vector fields, a Vessiot-Guldberg Lie algebra. We define and analyze…
In this paper we present a new procedure to obtain unitary and irreducible representations of Lie groups starting from the cotangent bundle of the group (the cotangent group). We discuss some applications of the construction in…
By decomposing the regular representation of a particular (Heisenberg-like) Lie supergroup into irreducible subspaces, we show that not all of them can be obtained by applying geometric quantization to coadjoint orbits with an even…
In this paper we investigate the orbit closures for the class of representations of simple algebraic groups associated to various gradings on a simple Lie algebras of type $E_6$, $F_4$ and $G_2$. The methods for classifying the orbits for…
Quantum theory can be formulated as a theory of operations, more specific, of complex represented operations from real Lie groups. Hilbert space eigenvectors of acting Lie operations are used as states or particles. The simplest simple Lie…
We develop relative oscillation theory for Jacobi matrices which, rather than counting the number of eigenvalues of one single matrix, counts the difference between the number of eigenvalues of two different matrices. This is done by…
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 study representations of the loop braid group $LB_n$ from the perspective of extending representations of the braid group $B_n$. We also pursue a generalization of the braid/Hecke/Temperlely-Lieb paradigm---uniform finite dimensional…
This talk is devoted mainly to the concept of higher-order polarization on a group, which is introduced in the framework of a Group Approach to Quantization, as a powerful tool to guarantee the irreducibility of quantizations and/or…
Let G be a simple algebraic group over an algebraically closed field with Lie algebra g. Then the orbits of nilpotent elements of g under the adjoint action of G have been classified. We describe a simple algorithm for finding a…
In this paper we study the Hecke algebra associated with a complex reflection group W. We discuss some properties of the Galois group of the splitting field of this algebra, and study its action on the so-called fake degrees of W. The…
Given a symmetry group one can construct the invariant dynamics using the technique of nonlinear realizations or the orbit method. The relationship between these methods is discussed. Few examples are presented.
The aim of this paper is to study the virtual classes of representation varieties of surface groups onto the rank one affine group. We perform this calculation by three different approaches: the geometric method, based on stratifying the…
The real Jacobi group $G^J_1(\mathbb{R})$, defined as the semi-direct product of the group ${\rm SL}(2,\mathbb{R})$ with the Heisenberg group $H_1$, is embedded in a $4\times 4$ matrix realisation of the group ${\rm Sp}(2,\mathbb{R})$. The…
We analyze the elements characterizing the theory of induced representations of Lie groups, in order to generalize it to quantum groups. We emphasize the geometric and algebraic aspects of the theory, because they are more suitable for…
It is widely understood that the quotient space of a topological group action can have a complicated combinatorial structure, indexed somehow by the sotropy groups of the action, but how best to record this structure seems unclear. This…
