In this paper, we consider a closed Riemannian manifold $M^{n+1}$ with dimension $3\leq n+1\leq 7$, and a compact Lie group $G$ acting as isometries on $M$ with cohomogeneity at least $3$. Suppose the union of non-principal orbits…

It is shown that a Banach space $E$ has type $p$ if and only for some (all) $d\ge 1$ the Besov space $B_{p,p}^{(\frac1p-\frac12)d}(\R^d;E)$ embeds into the space $\g(L^2(\R^d),E)$ of $\g$-radonifying operators $L^2(\R^d)\to E$. A similar…

Let $X$ be a smooth compact connected manifold. Let $G=\mbox{Diff}\, X$ be the group of diffeomorphisms of $X$, equipped with the $C^\infty$-topology, and let $H$ be the stabilizer of some point in $X$. Then the inclusion $H\to G$, which is…

In this paper we generalize a result in [1], showing that an arbitrary Riemannian symmetric space can be realized as a closed submanifold of a covering group of the Lie group defining the symmetric space. Some properties of the subgroups of…

Let $M=G/K$ be a Hermitian symmetric space of noncompact type. We provide a way of constructing $K$-equivariant embeddings from $M$ to its tangent space $T_oM$ at the origin by using the polarity of the $K$-action. As an application, we…

Consider a finite dimensional real vector space and a finite group acting unitarily on it. We study the general problem of constructing Euclidean stable embeddings of the quotient space of orbits. Our embedding is based on subsets of sorted…

These are notes from talks given at ICMS, Edinburgh, 4/2007 ("Geometry and Algorithms workshop") and at Bernoulli Center, Lausanne 5/2007 ("Limits of graphs in group theory and computer science"). We survey the following type of dichotomies…

We study relations between geometric embeddings of graphs and the spectrum of associated matrices, focusing on outerplanar embeddings of graphs. For a simple connected graph $G=(V,E)$, we define a "good" $G$-matrix as a $V\times V$ matrix…

Let $G$ be a connected Lie group and $\text{Sub}_G$ be the space of closed subgroups of $G$ equipped with the Chabauty topology. In this article, we investigate the existence of invariant random subgroups of $G$ supported on various orbits…

We classify the effective and transitive actions of a Lie group $G$ on an n-dimensional non-degenerate hyperboloid (also called real pseudo-hyperbolic space), under the assumption that $G$ is a closed, connected Lie subgroup of…

We introduce a new class of zero-dimensional weighted complete intersections, by abstracting the essential features of rational cohomology algebras of equal rank homogeneous spaces of compact connected Lie groups. We prove that, on a…

Equipping a non-equivariant topological E_\infty operad with the trivial G-action gives an operad in G-spaces. The algebra structure encoded by this operad in G-spectra is characterised homotopically by having no non-trivial multiplicative…
