Let $H_3(\Bbb R)$ denote the 3-dimensional real Heisenberg group. Given a family of lattices $\Gamma_1\supset\Gamma_2\supset\cdots$ in it, let $T$ stand for the associated uniquely ergodic $H_3(\Bbb R)$-{\it odometer}, i.e. the inverse…
Let $\mathbb{H}$ be the three-dimensional Heisenberg group. We introduce a structure on the Heisenberg group which consists of the biregular representation of $\mathbb{H\times H}$ restricted to some discrete subset of $\mathbb{H\times H}$…
We show that there is a sequence of subsets of each discrete Heisenberg group for which the non-singular ergodic theorem holds. The sequence depends only on the group; it works for any of its non-singular actions. To do this we use a metric…
We provide a new and elementary proof for the structure of geodesics in the Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}^n$. The proof is based on a new isoperimetric inequality for closed curves in $\mathbb{R}^{2n}$. We also prove that the…
The study of actions of countable groups by automorphisms of compact abelian groups has recently undergone intensive development, revealing deep connections with operator algebras and other areas. The discrete Heisenberg group is the…
Given a finite subgroup G of SL(2,C) we define an additive 2-category H^G whose Grothendieck group is isomorphic to an integral form of the Heisenberg algebra. We construct an action of H^G on derived categories of coherent sheaves on…
Let $\Delta$ be a closed, cocompact subgroup of $G \times \widehat{G}$, where $G$ is a second countable, locally compact abelian group. Using localization of Hilbert $C^*$-modules, we show that the Heisenberg module…
The goal of this paper is to study ergodic and rigidity properties of smooth actions of the discrete Heisenberg group $\H$. We establish the decomposition of the tangent space of any $C^\infty$ compact Riemannian manifold $M$ for Lyapunov…
In this note we give more easy and short proof of a statement previously proved by P. Kahn that the automorphism group of the discrete Heisenberg group ${\rm Heis}(3, \mathbb{Z}) $ is isomorphic to the group $ (\mathbb{Z} \oplus \mathbb{Z})…
We prove that if $H$ is a subgroup of index $n$ of any cyclic group $G$, then $G$ can be isometrically embedded in $(H^n, d_{_{Ham}}^n)$, thus generalizing previous results of Carlet (1998) for $G=\mathbb{Z}_{2^k}$ and Yildiz-\"Ozger (2012)…
G\"ottsche gave a formula for the dimension of the cohomology of Hilbert schemes of points on a smooth projective surface $S$. When $S$ admits an action by a finite group $G$, we describe the action of $G$ on the Hodge structure. In the…
Let G be the Heisenberg group of real lower triangular 3x3 matrices with unit diagonal. A locally free smooth action of G on a manifold M^4 is given by linearly independent vector fields X_1, X_2, X_3 such that X_3 = [X_1,X_2] and [X_1,X_3]…
We give a Riemannian structure to the set $\Sigma$ of positive invertible unitized Hilbert-Schmidt operators, by means of the trace inner product. This metric makes of $\Sigma$ a nonpositively curved, simply connected and metrically…
We explore the geometry that underlies the osculating nilpotent group structures of the Heisenberg calculus. For a smooth manifold $M$ with a distribution $H\subseteq TM$ analysts use explicit (and rather complicated) coordinate formulas to…
An oscillator group $G$ is a semidirect product of a Heisenberg group with a one-parameter group. In this article we construct Olshanski semigroups for infinite-dimensional oscillator groups. These are complex involutive semigroups which…
Following the method of induced group representations of Wigner-Mackay, the explicit construction of all the unitary irreducible representations of the discrete finite Heisenberg-Weyl group $HW_{2^s}$ over the discrete phase space lattice…
We consider the unitary group $\U$ of complex, separable, infinite-dimensional Hilbert space as a discrete group. It is proved that, whenever $\U$ acts by isometries on a metric space, every orbit is bounded. Equivalently, $\U$ is not the…
We solve explicitly the geodesic equation for a wide class of (pseudo)-Riemannian homogeneous manifolds (G/H,m), including those with G compact, as well as non-compact semisimple Lie groups, under a simple algebraic condition for the metric…
For an arbitrary countable discrete infinite group $G$, nonsingular rank-one actions are introduced. It is shown that the class of nonsingular rank-one actions coincides with the class of nonsingular $(C,F)$-actions. Given a decreasing…
We prove results toward classifying compact Lorentz manifolds on which Heisenberg groups act isometrically. We give a general construction, leading to a new example, of codimension-one actions--those for which the dimension of the…
