These notes of a course given at IRMA in April 2009 cover some aspects of the representation theory of fundamental groups of manifolds of dimension at most 3 in compact Lie groups, mainly $\su$. We give detailed examples, develop the…

In this paper, we investigate left invariant Riemannian metrics on Lie groups with one and two-dimensional commutator subgroups. We explicitly provide the Levi-Civita connection, sectional curvature, and Ricci curvature, and we give…

This is a survey on left invariant semi-Riemannian metrics on compact Lie groups.

M. Boucetta introduced the notion of pseudo-Riemannian Lie algebra in [2] when he studied the line Poisson structure on the dual of a Lie algebra. In this paper, we redefine pseudo-Riemannian Lie algebra, which, in essence, is a class of…

Lectures given at the CIMPA School "Geometrie sous-riemannienne", Beirut, Lebanon, 2012

These are notes from the mini-course given by W. Schmid in June 2003 in the Brussels PQR2003 Euroschool.

This is a preliminary version of the first chapter of a book project on the character theory of finite groups of Lie type. It provides the foundations from the general theory of reductive algebraic groups over a finite field.

This paper is about non-Euclidean analysis on Lie groups endowed with left invariant distributions, seen as sub-Riemannian manifolds. This is a an updated version, which will be modified according to the contributions of the other…

Gromov proposed to extract the (differential) geometric content of a sub-riemannian space exclusively from its Carnot-Carath\'eodory distance. One of the most striking features of a regular sub-riemannian space is that it has at any point a…

The authors compute distances between arbitrary elements of Lie groups SU(2) and SO(3) for special left-invariant sub-Riemannian metrics $\rho$ and $d$. To compute distances for the second metric, we essentially use the fact that canonical…

These are expanded notes for a short series of lectures, presented at the University of Luxembourg in 2017, giving an introduction to some of the ideas of supersymmetry and supergeometry. In particular, we start from some motivating facts…

This paper is the third in a series of papers, the aim of which is to construct algebraic geometry over metabelian Lie algebras.

There is a natural way to construct sub-Riemannian structures that depend on $n$ parameters on compact Lie groups. These structures are related to the filtrations of Lie subalgebras $\mathfrak g_0 < \mathfrak g_1 < \mathfrak g_2 < \dots <…

A Riemann-Lie algebra is a Lie algebra $\cal G$ such that its dual ${\cal G}^*$ carries a Riemannian metric compatible (in the sense introduced by th author in C. R. Acad. Paris, t. 333, S\'erie I, (2001) 763-768) with the canonical linear…

We survey recent work on the geometry and dynamics of transverse subgroups of semi-simple Lie groups.

These notes provide a concise introduction to the representation theory of reductive algebraic groups in positive characteristic, with an emphasis on Lusztig's character formula and geometric representation theory. They are based on the…

The quaternionic unit ball carries a Riemannian metric built using regular M\"obius transformations: the slice Riemannian metric. We prove that the geometry induced by this metric is strongly related to the group $\mathrm{Sp}(1,1)$. We also…

We introduce a special class of nilpotent Lie groups of step 2, that generalizes the so called $H$(eisenberg)-type groups, defined by A. Kaplan in 1980. We change the presence of inner product to an arbitrary scalar product and relate the…

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

We investigate contact Lie groups having a left invariant Riemannian or pseudo-Riemannian metric with specific properties such as being bi-invariant, flat, negatively curved, Einstein, etc. We classify some of such contact Lie groups and…
