Suppose $G$ is a real reductive group. The determination of the irreducible unitary representations of $G$ is one of the major unsolved problem in representation theory. There is evidence to suggest that every irreducible unitary…
We propose the study and description of the structure of complex Lie algebras with nilradical a nilpotent Lie algebra of type 2 by using sl2(C)-representation theory. Our results will be applied to review the classification given in [1] (J.…
We show that a finitely generated soluble group is virtually nilpotent if and only if the diameter of its finite coset spaces admits a uniform polynomial lower bound in terms of their size. We obtain the same conclusion for certain finitely…
Gromov claimed, with a sketch of proof, that simply connected nilpotent Lie groups have polynomially bounded filling invariants. The literature establishes this, often with a stronger conclusion where the exponent of polynomiality is…
We describe two algorithms for finding representatives of the nilpotent orbits of a theta-group. The algorithms have been implemented in the computer algebra system GAP (inside the package SLA). We comment on their performance. We apply the…
We establish combinatorial formulas for the index of a class of matrix Lie algebras whose matrix forms are encoded by strict partial orderings.
The degenerate Lie group is a semidirect product of the Borel subgroup with the normal abelian unipotent subgroup. We introduce a class of the highest weight representations of the degenerate group of type A, generalizing the PBW-graded…
An overview of quantum computing and in particular the Hidden Subgroup Problem are presented from a mathematical viewpoint. Detailed proofs are supplied for many important results from the literature, and notation is unified, making it…
We consider the computational problem of determining the unit group of a finite ring, by which we mean the computation of a finite presentation together with an algorithm to express units as words in the generators. We show that the problem…
We give a classification of the principal and distinguished nilpotent pairs in all classical Lie algebras. As a classification of the principal pairs in the exceptional simple Lie algebras was obtained earlier (see Appendix to Ginzburg's…
This paper has two main parts. In the first part we develop an elementary coordinatization for any nilpotent group $G$ taking exponents in a binomial principal ideal domain (PID) $A$. In case that the additive group $A^+$ of $A$ is finitely…
The paper studies nilpotent $n$-Lie superalgebras. More specifically speaking, we first prove Engel's theorem for $n$-Lie superalgebras. Second, we research some properties of nilpotent $n$-Lie superalgebras, Finally, we give several…
In this paper, we study Lorentzian left invariant Einstein metrics on nilpotent Lie groups. We show that if the center of such Lie groups is degenerate then they are Ricci-flat and their Lie algebras can be obtained by the double extension…
Inspired by orbit parametrizations in arithmetic statistics, we explain how to construct families of curves associated to certain nilpotent elements in $\mathbb{Z}/m\mathbb{Z}$-graded Lie algebras, generalizing work of Thorne to the $m\geq…
This is the first of a series of papers devoted to certain pairs of commuting nilpotent elements in a semisimple Lie algebra that enjoy quite remarkable properties and which are expected to play a major role in Representation theory. The…
A recipe for obtaining finitely presented abelian-by-nilpotent groups is given. It relies on a geometric procedure that generalizes the construction of finitely presented metabelian groups introduced by R. Bieri and R. Strebel in 1980.
We show that if a countably generated Lie algebra $H$ does not contain isomorphic copies of certain finite-dimensional nilpotent Lie algebras $A$ and $B$ (satisfying some mild conditions), then $H$ embeds into a quotient of $A \ast B$ that…
We study finite-dimensional nonassociative algebras. We prove the implicit function theorem for such algebras. This allows us to establish a correspondence between such algebras and quasigroups, in the spirit of classical correspondence…
The problem considered is the computation of an infinite product (composition) of Lie transformations generated by homogeneous polynomials of increasing order from a given convergent power series. Bounds are computed for the infinitesimal…
We give a selfcontained introduction to the theory of quantum groups according to Drinfeld highlighting the formal aspects as well as the applications to the Yang-Baxter equation and representation theory. Introductions to Hopf algebras,…
