We briefly describe how to introduce the basic notions of noncommutative differential geometry on the 3-dim quantum space covariant under the quantum group of rotations $SO_q(3)$.

We prove that the degree $r(2p-3)$ cohomology of any (untwisted) finite group of Lie type over $\mathbb{F}_{p^r}$, with coefficients in characteristic $p$, is nonzero as long as its Coxeter number is at most $p$. We do this by providing a…

``Pseudo-cohomology'', as a refinement of Lie group cohomology, is soundly studied aiming at classifying of the symplectic manifolds associated with Lie groups. In this study, the framework of symplectic cohomology provides fundamental new…

We consider the moduli spaces of representations of the fundamental group of a surface of genus g greater than 2 in the Lie groups SU(2,2) and Sp(4,R). It is well known that there is a characteristic number of such a representation, whose…

This article presents two key computations in MW-motivic cohomology. Firstly, we compute the MW-motivic cohomology of the symplectic groups $Sp_{2n}$ for any $n\in\mathbb{N}$ using the $Sp$-orientation and the associated Borel classes.…

We propose a general framework to contract unitary dual of Lie groups via holomorphic quantization of their co-adjoint orbits. The sufficient condition for the contractability of a representation is expressed via cocycles on coadjoint…

The group SU(3) is parameterized in terms of generalized ``Euler angles''. The differential operators of SU(3) corresponding to the Lie Algebra elements are obtained, the invariant forms are found, the group invariant volume element is…

We compute the fundamental group of the "moduli space" of classical solutions of the two dimensional Euclidean $S^n$-model.

The second de Rham cohomology groups of nilpotent orbits in non-compact real forms of classical complex simple Lie algebras are explicitly computed. Furthermore, the first de Rham cohomology groups of nilpotent orbits in non-compact…

We present a generalization of Weinstein's morphism defined on $\pi_{2k-1} ( \textup{Ham} (M,\omega)) $. We use this morphism to show that for $n\geq 2$ the Lie group $SU(2)$ induces an element in $\pi_3(\textup{Ham}…

We survey the cohomology jumping loci and the Alexander-type invariants associated to a space, or to its fundamental group. Though most of the material is expository, we provide new examples and applications, which in turn raise several…

We give a recursive algorithm for computing the Orlik-Terao algebra of the Coxeter arrangement of type A_{n-1} as a graded representation of S_n, and we give a conjectural description of this representation in terms of the cohomology of the…

We compute the cohomology of a Fuchsian group of the second kind with coefficients in the hyperfunction vectors of the principal series representations of $SL(2,R)$ supported on the limit set.

Over a field of characteristic $p>2,$ the first cohomology of the 3-dimensional simple Lie algebra $\frak{sl}(2)$ with coefficients in all simple modules is determined, which implies Whitehead's first lemma is not true in prime…

We study the group of homotopy classes of self maps of compact Lie groups which induce the trivial homomorphism on homotopy groups. We completely determine the groups for SU(3) and Sp(2). We investigate these groups for simple Lie groups in…

The projective unitary group PU(n) is the quotient of the unitary group U(n) by its center. We compute the integral cohomology ring of PU(n) using explicit constructed generators.

In this paper, we introduce a simplicial analog of classifying spaces for commutativity which classify principal bundles with commutativity structure on their transition functions. Our construction $\overline W(\tau,K)$, which takes as…

We determine the mod $2$ cohomology over the Steenrod algebra of the classifying spaces of the free loop groups $LG$ for compact groups $G=Spin(7)$, $Spin(8)$, $Spin(9)$, and $F_4$. Then, we show that they are isomorphic as algebras over…

This is an old paper put here for archeological purposes. We compute the second cohomology of current Lie algebras of the form $L\otimes A$, where $L$ belongs to some class of Lie algebras which includes classical simple and Zassenhaus…

We say that a finite almost simple $G$ with socle $S$ is admissible (with respect to the spectrum) if $G$ and $S$ have the same sets of orders of elements. Let $L$ be a finite simple linear or unitary group of dimension at least three over…
