We show that the categories of compact Lie groups and complex reductive groups (not necessarily connected) are homotopy equivalent topological categories. In other words, the corresponding categories enriched in the homotopy category of…

A Hadwiger-type theorem for the exceptional Lie groups $G_2$ and $Spin(7)$ is proved. The algebras of $G_2$ or $Spin(7)$ invariant, translation invariant continuous valuations are both of dimension 10. Geometrically meaningful bases are…

It is shown that the compact Lie group SU(3) admits an Sp(2)Sp(1)-structure whose distinguished 2-forms $\omega_1,\omega_2,\omega_3$ span a differential ideal. This is achieved by first reducing the structure further to a subgroup…

We show that the class of $\mathcal{L}$-constructible functions is closed under integration for any $P$-minimal expansion of a $p$-adic field $(K,\mathcal{L})$. This generalizes results previously known for semi-algebraic and sub-analytic…

We present all isotropy groups and associated $\Sigma$ groups, up to discrete identifications of the component connected to the identity, of spinors of eleven-dimensional and type II supergravities. The $\Sigma$ groups are products of a…

Let $Sp(n)$ be the symplectic group of quaternionic $(n\times n)$-matrices. For any $1\leq k\leq n$, an element $A$ of $Sp(n)$ can be decomposed in $A= \begin{bmatrix} \alpha&T\cr \beta&P \end{bmatrix}$ with $P$ a $(k\times k)$-matrix. In…

We construct smooth embeddings of spherical quandles into conjugation quandles of Lie groups, where the ambient Lie groups can be taken to be orthogonal, Spin, or Pin groups. Moreover, in dimensions $1$ and $3$, we compare our embeddings…

In this paper we construct compact forms associated with a complex Lie supergroup with Lie superalgebra of classical type.

In math.SG/0303255, we discussed the connected components of the space of surface group representations for any compact connected semisimple Lie group and any closed compact (orientable or nonorientable) surface. In this sequel, we…

Let Z be an algebraic homogeneous space Z=G/H attached to real reductive Lie group G. We assume that Z is real spherical, i.e., minimal parabolic subgroups have open orbits on Z. For such spaces we investigate their large scale geometry and…

We study the model theory of covers of groups definable in o-minimal structures. This includes the case of covers of compact real Lie groups. In particular we study categoricity questions, pointing out some notable differences with the case…

Given a slightly degenerate fusion category $\mathcal{C}$, we explain how it naturally gives rise to a Z-modular data. We do not restrict to spherical categories and work with pivotal categories instead. Finally, we give an interpretation…

Let $V=\C^N$ with $N$ odd. We construct a $q$-deformation of $\End_{Sp(N-1)}(V^{\otimes n})$ which contains $\End_{U_q\sl_N}(V^{\otimes n})$. It is a quotient of an abstract two-variable algebra which is defined by adding one more generator…

Let G be a connected complex semisimple Lie group. Webster and Yakimov have constructed partitions of the double flag variety G/B x G/B_, where (B, B_) is a pair of opposite Borel subgroups of G, generalizing the Deodhar decompositions of…

In this short note we show that the path-connected component of the identity of the derived subgroup of a compact Lie group consists just of commutators. We also discuss an application of our main result to the homotopy type of the…

The Witt group of nondegenerate braided fusion categories $\mathcal{W}$ contains a subgroup $\mathcal{W}_\text{un}$ consisting of Witt equivalence classes of pseudo-unitary nondegenerate braided fusion categories. For each…

Based on a pair of cohomology operations on so called $\delta-2$-formal spaces, we construct the integral cohomology rings of the classifying spaces of the Lie groups $Spin(n)$ and $Spin^{c}(n)$. As applications, we introduce characteristic…

By constructing concrete complex-oriented maps we show that the eight-fold of the generator of the third integral cohomology of the spin groups Spin(7) and Spin(8) is in the image of the Thom morphism from complex cobordism to singular…

We develop a notion of cell decomposition suitable for studying weak p- adic structures (reducts of p-adic fields where addition and multiplication are not (everywhere) definable). As an example, we apply this to a language with restricted…

We discuss the `hd-compactification' of a semi-simple Lie group to a manifold with corners; it is the real analog of the wonderful compactification of deConcini and Procesi. There is a 1-1 correspondence between the boundary faces of the…
