Fix a compact connected Lie group $G$ with Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$, as well as a strong Gelfand-Cetlin datum on $\mathfrak{g}^*$. Let us also fix a connected symplectic manifold $M$ endowed with an effective Hamiltonian $G$-action and…
Inspired by the construction of the Cuntz semigroup for a C*-algebra, we introduce the matrix Malcolmson semigroup and the finitely presented module Malcolmson semigroup for a unital ring. These two semigroups are shown to have isomorphic…
This paper contains several results concerning circle action on almost-complex and smooth manifolds. More precisely, we show that, for an almost-complex manifold $M^{2mn}$(resp. a smooth manifold $N^{4mn}$), if there exists a partition…
We extend the famous convexity theorem of Atiyah, Guillemin and Sternberg to the case of non-Hamiltonian actions. We show that the image of a generalized momentum map is a bounded polytope times a vector space. We prove that this picture is…
We compute the quantum cohomology of symplectic flag manifolds. Symplectic flag manifolds can be described by non-abelian GLSMs with superpotential. Although the ring relations cannot be directly read off from the equations of motion on the…
Suppose that a compact quantum group $\clq$ acts faithfully on a smooth, compact, connected manifold $M$, i.e. has a $C^*$ (co)-action $\alpha$ on $C(M)$, such that the action $\alpha$ is isometric in the sense of \cite{Goswami} for some…
We consider paths of Hamiltonian diffeomorphism preserving a given compact monotone Lagrangian in a symplectic manifold that extend to an $S^1$--Hamiltonian action. We compute the leading term of the associated Lagrangian Seidel element. We…
We consider $C^*$-algebras constructed from compact group actions on complex vector bundles $E\to X$ endowed with a Hermitian metric. An action of $G$ by isometries on $E\to X$ induces an action on the $C^*$-correspondence $\Gamma(E)$ over…
We complete the classification of Hamiltonian torus and circle actions on symplectic four-dimensional manifolds. Following work of Delzant and Karshon, Hamiltonian circle and 2-torus actions on any fixed simply connected symplectic…
Group actions on a Smale space and the actions induced on the C*-algebras associated to such a dynamical system are studied. We show that an effective action of a discrete group on a mixing Smale space produces a strongly outer action on…
We give examples of symplectic actions of a cyclic group, inducing a trivial action on homology, on four-manifolds that admit Hamiltonian circle actions, and show that they do not extend to Hamiltonian circle actions. Our work applies…
Let F be a field, G a finite group, and Map(G,F) the Hopf algebra of all set-theoretic maps G->F. If E is a finite field extension of F and G is its Galois group, the extension is Galois if and only if the canonical map resulting from…
For every compact almost complex manifold (M,J) equipped with a J-preserving circle action with isolated fixed points, a simple algebraic identity involving the first Chern class is derived. This enables us to construct an algorithm to…
Given a group G, we construct, in a canonical way, an inverse semigroup S(G) associated to G. The actions of S(G) are shown to be in one-to-one correspondence with the partial actions of G, both in the case of actions on a set, and that of…
We consider the infinite-dimensional Lie group $\mathfrak G$ which is the semidirect product of the group of compactly supported diffeomorphisms of a Riemannian manifold $X$ and the commutative multiplicative group of functions on $X$. The…
We prove the rigidity of presymplectic actions of a compact semisimple Lie algebra on a presymplectic manifold of constant rank in the local and global case. The proof uses an abstract normal form theorem we had stated in a previous work,…
A ${\mathbb Z}_{p}^{m}$-action of type $(d;p,n)$, where $2 \leq d \leq m \leq n$ are integers, is a pair $(S,N)$ where $S$ is a $d$-dimensional compact complex manifold, $N \cong {\mathbb Z}_{p}^{m}$ is a group of holomorphic automorphisms…
Let $G$ be a compact group, let $\mathcal{B}$ be a unital C$^*$-algebra, and let $(\mathcal{A},G,\alpha)$ be a free C$^*$-dynamical system, in the sense of Ellwood, with fixed point algebra $\mathcal{B}$. We prove that…
We study Hamiltonian actions of compact Lie groups K on Kaehler manifolds which extend to a holomorphic action of the complexified group K^C. For a closed normal subgroup L of K we show that the Kaehlerian reduction with respect to L is a…
Let $\gp$ be a finite group acting on a compact manifold $M$ and $\maA(M)$ denote the algebra of classical complete symbols on $M$. We determine all traces on the cross-product algebra $\maA(M) \rtimes \Gamma$. These traces appear as…
