We explore the concept of conjugation between subgroupoids, providing several characterizations of the conjugacy relation (Theorem A in {\S}1.2). We show that two finite groupoid-sets, over a locally strongly finite groupoid, are…
Endowing differentiable functions from a compact manifold to a Lie group with the pointwise group operations one obtains the so-called current groups and, as a special case, loop groups. These are prime examples of infinite-dimensional Lie…
A Jet groupoid R_q over a manifold X is a special Lie groupoid consisting of q-jets of local diffeomorphisms from X to X. As a subbundle of the q-th order jet bundle of the trivial bundle X times X, a jet groupoid can be considered as a…
This is the first of a series of papers which define and study structures called rootoids, which are groupoids equipped with a representation in the category of Boolean rings and with an associated 1-cocycle. The axioms for rootoids are…
In the spirit of Conway we define a groupoid starting from projective planes of order $q$, where $q$ is odd. The associated group of these groupoids is then investigated.
The purpose of the current paper is twofold: to provide a conceptual link between the quantization framework based on Lie integration of algebroids proposed by N.P. Landsman in the book "Mathematical Topics between Classical and Quantum…
In this paper we study grouplike monoids, these are monoids that contain a group to which we add an ordered set of idempotents. We classify finite categories with two objects having grouplike endomorphism monoids, and we give a count of…
These lecture notes for the 2013 CIME/CIRM summer school Combinatorial Algebraic Geometry deal with manifestly infinite-dimensional algebraic varieties with large symmetry groups. So large, in fact, that subvarieties stable under those…
A symplectic Lie group is a Lie group with a left-invariant symplectic form. Its Lie algebra structure is that of a quasi-Frobenius Lie algebra. In this note, we identify the groupoid analogue of a symplectic Lie group. We call the…
Finite symmetries abound in particle physics, from the weak doublets and generation triplets to the baryon octet and many others. These are usually studied by starting from a Lie group, and breaking the symmetry by choosing a particular…
Two Lie algebroids are presented that are linked to the construction of the linearizing output of an affine in the input nonlinear system. The algorithmic construction of the linearizing output proceeds inductively, and each stage has two…
An idea to present a classical Lie group of positive dimension by generators and relations sounds dubious, but happens to be fruitful. The isometry groups of classical geometries admit elegant and useful presentations by generators and…
The Lie point symmetries of a coupled system of two nonlinear differential-difference equations are investigated. It is shown that in special cases the symmetry group can be infinite dimensional, in other cases up to 10 dimensional. The…
This paper opens the series of articles supplemental to the series (hep-th/9405050,q-alg/9610026,q-alg/9611003,q-alg/9611019,funct-an/9611003), which also lies in lines of general ideology exposed in the review (mp_arc/96-477). The main…
An isomorphism between two hermitian unitals is proved, and used to treat isomorphisms of classical groups that are related to the isomorphism between certain simple real Lie algebras of types A and D (and rank 3).
In this work we deal with coverings and actions of Lie group- groupoids being a sort of the structured Lie groupoids. Firstly, we define an action of a Lie group-groupoid on some Lie group and the smooth coverings of Lie group-groupoids.…
A method is presented for finding the Lie point symmetry transformations acting simultaneously on difference equations and lattices, while leaving the solution set of the corresponding difference scheme invariant. The method is applied to…
Homotopy Lie algebras are a generalization of differential graded Lie algebras encoding both the kinematics and dynamics of a given field theory. Focusing on kinematics, we show that these algebras provide a natural framework for the…
Lie systems form a class of systems of first-order ordinary differential equations whose general solutions can be described in terms of certain finite families of particular solutions and a set of constants, by means of a particular type of…
We introduce nonassociative geometric objects generalising naturally Lie groupoids and called (smooth) quasiloopoids and loopoids. We prove that the tangent bundles of smooth loopoids are canonically smooth loopoids again (it is nontrivial…
