Let (M,g) be a 3-dimensional compact connected real analytic Lorentz manifold and suppose that g is locally homogeneous on a non-empty open set in M (the pseudogroup of local isometries of g has an open orbit). Then we prove that g is…

We describe smooth compactifications of certain families of reductive homogeneous spaces such as group manifolds for classical Lie groups, or pseudo-Riemannian analogues of real hyperbolic spaces and their complex and quaternionic…

We study the topology of compact manifolds with a Lie group action for which there are only finitely many non-principal orbits, and describe the possible orbit spaces which can occur. If some non-principal orbit is singular, we show that…

The main result of this paper is the conformal flatness of real-analytic compact Lorentz manifolds of dimension at least $3$ admitting a conformal essential (i.e. conformal, but not isometric) action of a Lie group locally isomorphic to…

We study locally conformal symplectic (LCS) structures of the second kind on a Lie algebra. We show a method to build new examples of Lie algebras admitting LCS structures of the second kind starting with a lower dimensional Lie algebra…

There is a well-established procedure of assigning a strong homotopy Lie algebra of local observables to a multisymplectic manifold which can be regarded as part of a categorified Poisson structure. For a 2-plectic manifold, the resulting…

We classify contact manifolds $(M,\mathcal D)$ which are homogeneous under a connected semisimple Lie group $G$, and symmetric in the sense that there exists a contactomorphism of $(M,\mathcal D)$ normalizing $G$, fixing a point $o$ in $M$…

In this work it is shown that a necessary condition for the completeness of the geodesics of left invariant pseudo-Riemannian metrics on Lie groups is also sufficient in the case of 3-dimensional unimodular Lie groups, and not sufficient…

We construct explicit proper p-harmonic functions on rank-one Lie groups of Iwasawa type. This class of Lie groups includes many classical Riemannian manifolds such as the rank-one symmetric spaces of non-compact type, Damek-Ricci spaces,…

We prove that any compact homogeneous locally conformally K\"ahler manifold has parallel Lee form.

We obtain the full classification of coisotropic and polar actions of compact Lie group on irreducible Hermitian symmetric spaces.

A cohomogeneity one manifold is a manifold with the action of a compact Lie group, whose quotient is one dimensional. Such manifolds are of interest in Riemannian geometry, in the context of nonnegative sectional curvature, as well as in…

We show that a negative Einstein manifold admitting a proper isometric action of a connected unimodular Lie group with compact, possibly singular, orbit space splits isometrically as a product of a symmetric space and a compact negative…

We define closed model category structures on different categories connected to the world of operad algebras over the category C(k) of (unbounded) complexes of k-modules: on the category of operads, on the category of algebras over a fixed…

We construct a smooth Lie group structure on the group of real analytic diffeomorphisms of a compact analytic manifold with corners. This generalises the known analogous results in the situation where the real analytic manifold has no…

We study the homogeneous spaces of a simply connected, compact, simple Lie group $G$ through the lens of K-theory. Our methods apply equally well to the case where $G$ is in one of the four infinite families of classical groups, or one of…

We determine all the homogeneous structure tensors on $\mathbb{S}^2\times\mathbb{R}$ and $\mathbb{H}^2\times\mathbb{R}$. This work together with previous articles yields a complete classification of all the homogeneous structure tensors on…

We revisit the classification of Lorentz homogeneous spaces of dimension $3$, and relax usual completeness assumptions. In particular, non-unimodular elliptic plane waves, and only them, are neither locally symmetric nor locally isometric…

Consider a closed non-degenerate 3-form $\omega$ with an infinitesimal action of a Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$. Motivated by the fact that the observables associated to $\omega$ form a Lie 2-algebra, we introduce homotopy moment maps defined…

The metric structure of homogeneous spaces of rank-one and rank-two associated to the real pseudo-orthogonal groups SO(p,q) and some of their contractions (e.g., ISO(p,q), Newton-Hooke type groups...) is studied. All these spaces are…
