This is the lecture 3 of a mini-course of 4 lectures. Our purpose of this mini-curse is to explain some ideas of E. Cartan and S. Lie when we study differential geometry, particularly we will to explain the Cartan reduction method. The…

A scheme to perform the Cartan decomposition for the Lie algebra su(N) of arbitrary finite dimensions is introduced. The schme is based on two algebraic structures, the conjugate partition and the quotient algebra, that are easily generated…
A generalization of the differential geometry of forms and vector fields to the case of quantum Lie algebras is given. In an abstract formulation that incorporates many existing examples of differential geometry on quantum spaces we combine…
This is an elementary introduction to exterior differential systems motivated by two examples: minimal submanifolds and the isometric embedding problem. The two main goals of the lectures are: 1. To explain how to find an appropriate…
This work is a spin-off of an on-going programme which aims at revisiting the original studies of Lie and Cartan on pseudogroups and geometric structures from a modern perspective. We encode geometric structures induced by transitive Lie…
We explain what Cartan geometries are, aiming at an audience of graduate students familiar with manifolds, Lie groups and differential forms.
G-structures and Cartan geometries are two major approaches to the description of geometric structures (in the sense of differential geometry) on manifolds of some fixed dimension $n$. We show that both descriptions naturally extend to the…
We apply the Cartan equivalence method to the study of real analytic second order ODEs under the local real analytic diffeomorphism of $\C^2$ which are area-preserving. This enables us to give a characterization of the second order ODEs…
We start discussing basic properties of Lie groupoids and Lie pseudo-groups in view of applying these techniques to the analysis of Jordan-H\"older resolutions and the subsequent integration of partial differential equations which is the…
For a given abelian group G, we classify the isomorphism classes of G-gradings on the simple restricted Lie algebras of types W(m;1) and S(m;1) (m>=2), in terms of numerical and group-theoretical invariants. Our main tool is automorphism…
We present a modern formulation of \'Elie Cartan's structure theory for Lie pseudogroups and prove a reduction theorem that clarifies the role of Cartan's systatic system. The paper is divided into three parts. In part one, using notions…
Elie Cartan's general equivalence problem is recast in the language of Lie algebroids. The resulting formalism, being coordinate and model-free, allows for a full geometric interpretation of Cartan's method of equivalence via reduction and…
The Cartan scheme $\cal X$ of a finite group $G$ with a $(B,N)$-pair is defined to be the coherent configuration associated with the action of $G$ on the right cosets of the Cartan subgroup $B\cap N$ by the right multiplications. It is…
The aim of the paper is to demonstrate the superiority of Cartan's method over direct methods based on differential elimination for handling otherwise intractable equivalence problems. In this sens, using our implementation of Cartan's…
The purpose of the paper is to study the relationship between differential equations, Pfaffian systems and geometric structures, via the method of moving frames of E.Cartan. We show a local structure theorem. The Lie algebra aspects…
We investigate the graded Lie algebras of Cartan type $W$, $S$ and $H$ in characteristic 2 and determine their simple constituents and some exceptional isomorphisms between them. We also consider the graded Lie algebras of Cartan type $K$…
Cartan's equivalence method is applied to explicitly construct invariant coframes for four branches, which are used to characterize all non-linearizable third-order ODEs with a four-dimensional Lie symmetry subalgebra under point…
We develop a holonomy reduction procedure for general Cartan geometries. We show that, given a reduction of holonomy, the underlying manifold naturally decomposes into a disjoint union of initial submanifolds. Each such submanifold…
