It is known that for every second countable locally compact group G, there exists a proper G-invariant metric which induces the topology of the group. This is no longer true for coset spaces G/H viewed as G-spaces. We study necessary and…

We show that if a (locally compact) group $G$ acts properly on a locally compact $\sigma$-compact space $X$ then there is a family of $G$-invariant proper continuous finite-valued pseudometrics which induces the topology of $X$. If $X$ is…

Given a separable metrisable space X, and a group G of homeomorphisms of X, we introduce a topological property of the action of G on X which is equivalent to the existence of a G-invariant compatible metric on X. This extends a result of…

Let $G$ be a locally compact Hausdorff group. We study orbit spaces of equivariant absolute neighborhood extensors ($G$-${\rm ANE}$'s) for the class of all proper $G$-spaces that are metrizable by a $G$-invariant metric. We prove that if a…

We study invariant and bi-invariant metrics on groups focusing on finite groups $G$. We show that non-equivalent (bi) invariant metrics on $G$ are in 1-1 correspondence with unitary symmetric (conjugate) partitions on $G$. To every metric…

We investigate the curvature of invariant metrics on G-manifolds with finitely many non-principal orbits. We prove existence results for metrics of positive Ricci curvature and non-negative sectional curvature, and discuss some families of…

Local unitary invariants allow one to test whether multipartite states are equivalent up to local basis changes. Equivalently, they specify the geometry of the "orbit space" obtained by factoring out local unitary action from the state…

Let $G$ be a locally compact Hausdorff group. We study orbit spaces of equivariant absolute neighborhood extensors ($G$-${\rm ANE}$'s) in the class of all proper $G$-spaces that are metrizable by a $G$-invariant metric. We prove that if a…

The metrizability problem for a symmetric affine connection on a manifold, invariant with respect to a group of diffeomorphisms G, is considered. We say that the connection is G-metrizable, if it is expressible as the Levi-Civita connection…

We evidence a family $\mathcal{X}$ of square matrices over a field $\mathbb{K}$, whose elements will be called X-matrices. We show that this family is shape invariant under multiplication as well as transposition. We show that $\mathcal{X}$…

Given a Lie group $G$ we study the class $\M$ of proper metrizable $G$-spaces with metrizable orbit spaces, and show that any $G$-space $X \in \M$ admits a closed $G$-embedding into a convex $G$-subset $C$ of some locally convex linear…

We say that a (countably dimensional) topological vector space $X$ is orbital if there is $T\in L(X)$ and a vector $x\in X$ such that $X$ is the linear span of the orbit ${T^nx:n=0,1,...}$. We say that $X$ is strongly orbital if,…

We define and investigate modulation invariant spaces on a locally compact abelian group $G$ with respect to a closed subgroup of the dual group $\widehat{G}$. Using a range function approach, we establish a characterization of modulation…

Given compact Lie groups H\subset G, we study the space of G-invariant metrics on G/H with nonnegative sectional curvature. For an intermediate subgroup K between H and G, we derive conditions under which enlarging the Lie algebra of K…

If F is a type-definable family of commensurable subsets, subgroups or sub-vector spaces in a metric structure, then there is an invariant subset, subgroup or sub-vector space commensurable with F. This in particular applies to…

We describe the invariant metrics on real flag manifolds and classify those with the following property: every geodesic is the orbit of a one-parameter subgroup. Such a metric is called g.o. (geodesic orbit). In contrast to the complex…

We examine which of the compact connected Lie groups that act transitively on spheres of different dimensions leave the unique spin structure of the sphere invariant. We study the notion of invariance of a spin structure and prove this…

Let $X_{\pi}$ be the subspace of fixed vectors for a uniformly bounded representation $\pi$ of a group $G$ on a Banach space $X$. We study the problem of the existence and uniqueness of a subspace $Y$ that complements $X_{\pi}$ in $X$.…

Recently we have shown that the equivalence classes of metrics on the double of a metric space $X$ form an inverse semigroup. Here we define an inverse subsemigroup related to a family of isometric subspaces of $X$, which is more…

Let $G$ be a countable group. We study left-invariant metrics on $G$ that are not necessarily proper, introducing the notion of a \emph{bornological metric}: a metric $\rho$ such that for every $C>0$ there exists $S_C>0$ with the property…
