A generalized Euler parameterization of a compact Lie group is a way for parameterizing the group starting from a maximal Lie subgroup, which allows a simple characterization of the range of parameters. In the present paper we consider the…

Given a partial action $\theta$ of a group on a set with an algebraic structure, we construct a reflector of $\theta$ in the corresponding subcategory of global actions and study the question when this reflector is a globalization. In…

This paper studies nilpotent orbits in complex simple Lie algebras from the viewpoint of strongly visible actions in the sense of T. Kobayashi. We prove that the action of a maximal compact group consisting of inner automorphisms on a…

We sharpen the orbit method for finite groups of small nilpotence class by associating representations to functionals on the corresponding Lie rings. This amounts to describing compatible intertwiners between representations parameterized…

A variety of problems emerged investigating electronic circuits, computer devices and cellular automata motivated a number of attempts to create a differential and integral calculus for Boolean functions. In the present article, we extend…

This is an old article of 2000. Its aim is to illustrate how a Lie-theoretic result of Zelmanov enables one to treat various problems in group theory.

We prove a Galois correspondence theorem for groupoids acting orthogonally and partially on commutative rings. We also consider partial actions that are not orthogonal, presenting two correspondences in this case: one for strongly Galois…

We observe that the join operation for the Bruhat order on a Weyl group agrees with the intersections of Verma modules in type $A$. The statement is not true in other types, and we propose a conjectural statement of a weaker correspondence.…

Let A be a unital separable C*-algebra, and D a K_1-injective strongly self-absorbing C*-algebra. We show that if A is D-absorbing, then the crossed product of A by a compact second countable group or by Z or by R is D-absorbing as well,…

The classification of the Lie point symmetries of the nonlinear filtration equation gives the generic case and three special cases. By restricting to a special class of functions, we show that the Lie symmetries of the nonlinear filtration…

In this article, we consider a class of functions on $\mathbb{R}^d$, called positive homogeneous functions, which interact well with certain continuous one-parameter groups of (generally anisotropic) dilations. Generalizing the Euclidean…

We consider a version of the notion of F-inverse semigroup (studied in the algebraic theory of inverse semigroups). We point out that an action of such an inverse semigroup on a locally compact space has associated a natural groupoid…

We prove a generalized Fej\'er's theorem for locally compact groups.

Let C be the centralizer in a finite Weyl group of an elementary abelian 2-subgroup. We show that every complex representation of C can be realized over the field of rational numbers. The same holds for a Sylow 2-subgroup of C.

We prove that any twisted generalized Weyl algebra satisfying certain consistency conditions can be embedded into a crossed product. We also introduce a new family of twisted generalized Weyl algebras, called multiparameter twisted Weyl…

We define the notion of a partial action on a generalized Boolean algebra and associate to every such system and commutative unital ring $R$ an $R$-algebra. We prove that every strongly $E^{\ast}$-unitary inverse semigroup has an associated…

Previously we showed that a loop in a simply connected compact Lie group K has a unique triangular factorization if and only if the loop has a unique root subgroup factorization (relative to a choice of a reduced sequence of simple…

A Galois correspondence theorem is proved for the case of inverse semigroups acting orthogonally on commutative rings as a consequence of the Galois correspondence theorem for groupoid actions. To this end, we use a classic result of…
