This is a survey of some problems in geometric group theory which I find interesting. The problems are from different areas of group theory. Each section is devoted to problems in one area. It contains an introduction where I give some…

The concept of weak Lie motion (weak Lie symmetry) is introduced through ${\cal{L}}_{\xi}{\cal{L}}_{\xi}g_{ab}=0,$ (${\cal{L}}_{\xi}{\cal{L}}_{\xi}f=0$). Applications are given which exhibit a reduction of the usual symmetry, e.g., in the…

In the 1970's, George Mackey pointed out an analogy that exists between tempered representations of semisimple Lie groups and unitary representations of associated semidirect product Lie groups. More recently, Nigel Higson refined Mackey's…

Thirty years after the birth of foliations in the 1950's, Andr\'e Haefliger has introduced a special property satisfied by holonomy pseudogroups of foliations on compact manifolds, called compact generation. Up to now, this is the only…

The representation theory of the symmetric groups is intimately related to geometry, algebraic combinatorics, and Lie theory. The spin representation theory of the symmetric groups was originally developed by Schur. In these lecture notes,…

An almost Abelian Lie group is a non-Abelian Lie group with a codimension 1 Abelian normal subgroup. The majority of 3-dimensional real Lie groups are almost Abelian, and they appear in all parts of physics that deal with anisotropic media…

In this paper, we establish a complete structural description of flat Lorentzian Lie groups, i.e., Lie groups endowed with a flat left invariant Lorentzian metric, thereby resolving a long-standing open problem in the theory of…

Advances in quantum computing over the last two decades have required sophisticated mathematical frameworks to deepen the understanding of quantum algorithms. In this review, we introduce the theory of Lie groups and their algebras to…

By Torelli topology the author understands aspects of the topology of surfaces (potentially) relevant to the study of Torelli groups. The present paper is devoted to a new approach to the results of W. Vautaw about Dehn multi-twists in…

This survey paper concerns mainly with some asymptotic topological properties of finitely presented discrete groups: quasi-simple filtration (QSF), geometric simple connectivity (GSC), topological inverse-representations, and the notion of…

Cohen and Taylor introduced Plesken Lie algebras of finite groups and studied their structural properties. As a further step, we will introduce Plesken Lie algebra representations, Plesken Lie algebra modules and discuss the irreducibility…

This is a brief introduction to the theories of Lie groups, algebraic groups and their discrete subgroups, which is based on a lecture series given during the Summer School held in the Banach Centre in Poland in Summer 2011.

These notes present a quick introduction to the q-deformations of semisimple Lie groups from the point of view of unitary representation theory. In order to remain concrete, we concentrate entirely on the case of the lie algebra…

We note that a recent result of the second author yields upper bounds for odd-primary homotopy exponents of compact simple Lie groups which are often quite close to the lower bounds obtained from v_1-periodic homotopy theory.

This is an expository article on properties of actions on Lie groups by subgroups of their automorphism groups. After recalling various results on the structure of the automorphism groups, we discuss actions with dense orbits, invariant and…

We investigate properties of closed approximate subgroups of locally compact groups, with a particular interest for approximate lattices i.e. those approximate subgroups that are discrete and have finite co-volume. We prove an approximate…

Discussed here is descent theory in the differential context where everything is equipped with a differential operator. To answer a question personally posed by A. Pianzola, we determine all twisted forms of the differential Lie algebras…

We study the group of homotopy classes of self maps of compact Lie groups which induce the trivial homomorphism on homotopy groups. We completely determine the groups for SU(3) and Sp(2). We investigate these groups for simple Lie groups in…

These notes deal with a few aspects of Lie algebras and Lie groups, including some matters related to exponentiation.

A Poisson--Hopf algebra of smooth functions on the (1+1) Cayley--Klein groups is constructed by using a classical $r$--matrix which is invariant under contraction. The quantization of this algebra for the Euclidean, Galilei and Poincar\'e…
