Study on $p$-Kähler structures on fibrations and Lie groups.

Extending our reduction construction in \cite{Hu} to the Hamiltonian action of a Poisson Lie group, we show that generalized Kähler reduction exists even when only one generalized complex structure in the pair is preserved by the group action. We show that the constructions in string theory of the (geometrical) $T$-dua…

This article addresses the question of whether Langlands duality for complex reductive Lie groups may be implemented by T-dualization. We prove that for reductive groups whose simple factors are of Dynkin type A, D, or E, the answer is yes.

We present a theory of reduction for Courant algebroids as well as Dirac structures, generalized complex, and generalized Kähler structures which interpolates between holomorphic reduction of complex manifolds and symplectic reduction. The enhanced symmetry group of a Courant algebroid leads us to define \emph{extended…

Given an irreducible contractible open 3-manifold W which is not homeomorphic to R^3, there is an associated simplicial complex S(W), the complex of end reductions of W. Whenever W covers a 3-manifold M one has that the fundamental group of M is isomorphic to a subgroup of the group Aut(S(W)) of simplicial automorphism…

We study reduction of generalized complex structures. More precisely, we investigate the following question. Let $J$ be a generalized complex structure on a manifold $M$, which admits an action of a Lie group $G$ preserving $J$. Assume that $M_0$ is a $G$-invariant smooth submanifold and the $G$-action on $M_0$ is prop…

In this paper, we develop results in the direction of an analogue of Sjamaar and Lerman's singular reduction of Hamiltonian symplectic manifolds in the context of reduction of Hamiltonian generalized complex manifolds (in the sense of Lin and Tolman). Specifically, we prove that if a compact Lie group acts on a general…

Let $G$ be a complex reductive connected algebraic group equipped with the Sklyanin bracket. A classification of Poisson homogeneous $G$-spaces with connected isotropy subgroups is given. This result is based on Drinfeld's correspondence between Poisson homogeneous $G$-spaces and Lagrangian subalgebras in the double $D…

Let $G$ be a connected reductive complex affine algebraic group and $K\subset G$ a maximal compact subgroup. Let $M$ be a compact complex torus equipped with a flat Kähler structure and $(E_G ,θ)$ a polystable Higgs $G$-bundle on $M$. Take any $C^\infty$ reduction of structure group $E_K \subset E_G$ to the subgroup $K…

Abstract: Generalized reduction methods for symmetries in graded geometry.

We show that certain submanifolds of generalized complex manifolds ("weak branes") admit a natural quotient which inherits a generalized complex structure. This is analog to quotienting coisotropic submanifolds of symplectic manifolds. In particular Gualtieri's generalized complex submanifolds ("branes") quotient to sp…

DFR reduces the computational cost of sparse-group lasso and adaptive sparse-group lasso.

We prove a generalization of a theorem of Borel-Harish-Chandra on closed orbits of linear actions of reductive groups. Consider a real reductive algebraic group $G$ acting linearly and rationally on a real vector space $V$. $G$ can be viewed as the real points of a complex reductive group $G^\mathbb C$ which acts on $V…

Introduces a new method for symplectic reduction along submanifolds.

We describe smooth compactifications of certain families of reductive homogeneous spaces such as group manifolds for classical Lie groups, or pseudo-Riemannian analogues of real hyperbolic spaces and their complex and quaternionic counterparts. We deduce compactifications of Clifford-Klein forms of these homogeneous sp…

A closed 3-form $H \in Ω^3_0(M)$ defines an extension of $Γ(TM)$ by $Ω^2_0(M)$. This fact leads to the definition of the group of $H$-twisted Hamiltonian symmetries $\Ham(M, \JJ; H)$ as well as Hamiltonian action of Lie group and moment map in the category of (twisted) generalized complex manifold. The Hamiltonian redu…

The paper simplifies symmetries in complex geometric structures.

The BC(n) Sutherland Hamiltonian with coupling constants parametrized by three arbitrary integers is derived by reductions of the Laplace operator of the group U(N). The reductions are obtained by applying the Laplace operator on spaces of certain vector valued functions equivariant under suitable symmetric subgroups o…

This paper uses Brin and Thickstun's theory of end reductions of non-compact 3-manifolds to study groups of covering translations of irreducible contractible open 3-manifolds W which are not homeomorphic to R^3. We associate to W an object S(W) called the simplicial complex of minimal R^2-irreducible end reductions of …

For a stratified symplectic space, a suitable concept of stratified Kaehler polarization, defined in terms of an appropriate Lie-Rinehart algebra, encapsulates Kaehler polarizations on the strata and the behaviour of the polarizations across the strata and leads to the notion of stratified Kaehler space. This notion es…

Survey and generalization of implosion and contraction in symplectic and hyperkähler geometry.

We investigate the algebraic structure of complex Lie groups equipped with left-invariant metrics which are expanding semi-algebraic solitons to the Hermitian curvature flow (HCF). We show that the Lie algebras of such Lie groups decompose in the semidirect product of a reductive Lie subalgebra with their nilradicals. …

Let $M$ be a compact connected special flat affine manifold without boundary equipped with a Gauduchon metric $g$ and a covariant constant volume form. Let $G$ be either a connected reductive complex linear algebraic group or the real locus of a split real form of a complex reductive group. We prove that a flat princip…

Let G be a complex reductive algebraic group (not necessarily connected), let K be a maximal compact subgroup, and let A be a finitely generated Abelian group. We prove that the conjugation orbit space Hom(A,K)/K is a strong deformation retract of the GIT quotient space Hom(A,G)//G. As a corollary, we determine necessa…

In this paper we show as main results two structure theorems of a compact homogeneous locally conformally Kaehler (or shortly l.c.K.) manifold, a holomorphic structure theorem asserting that it has a structure of holomorphic principal fiber bundle over a flag manifold with fiber a 1-dimensional complex torus, and a met…

The paper computes characteristic classes for Lie group representations.

We study meromorphic actions of unipotent complex Lie groups on compact Kähler manifolds using moment map techniques. We introduce natural stability conditions and show that sets of semistable points are Zariski-open and admit geometric quotients that carry compactifiable Kähler structures obtained by symplectic reduct…

We construct a gerbe over a complex reductive Lie group G attached to an invariant bilinear form on a maximal diagonalizable subalgebra which is Weyl group invariant and satisfies a parity condition. By restriction to a maximal compact subgroup K, one then gets a gerbe over K. For a simply-connected group, the parity c…

Generalizes reductive homogeneous spaces to arbitrary Lie groups using gauge theory.

Let $P$ be a parabolic subgroup of a connected simply connected complex semisimple Lie group $G$. Given a compact Kähler manifold $X$, the dimensional reduction of $G$-equivariant holomorphic vector bundles over $X\times G/P$ was carried out by the first and third authors. This raises the question of dimensional reduct…

Let G be a complex reductive linear algebraic group and let K be a maximal compact subgroup of G. Given a nilpotent group Γgenerated by r elements, we consider the representation spaces Hom(Γ,G) and Hom(Γ,K) with the natural topology induced from an embedding into G^r and K^r respectively. The goal of this paper is to …

Develops quantum character theory for complex reductive groups.

We consider locally conformal Kaehler geometry as an equivariant (homothetic) Kaehler geometry: a locally conformal Kaehler manifold is, up to equivalence, a pair (K,Γ) where K is a Kaehler manifold and Γa discrete Lie group of biholomorphic homotheties acting freely and properly discontinuously. We define a new invari…

A characterization of maximal domains of existence of adapted complex structures for Riemannian homogeneous manifolds under certain extensibility assumptions on their geodesic flow is given. This is applied to generalized Heisenberg groups and naturally reductive Riemannian homogeneous spaces. As an application it is s…

Let $G$ be a linear connected complex reductive Lie group. The purpose of this paper is to give explicit symplectic isomorphisms from twisted cotangent bundles of the complex generalized flag varieties, whose transition functions are given by affine transformations instead of linear transformations, onto the complex co…

Let $M$ be a compact connected complex manifold and $G$ a connected reductive complex affine algebraic group. Let $E_G$ be a holomorphic principal $G$--bundle over $M$ and $T\, \subset\, G$ a torus containing the connected component of the center of $G$. Let $N$ (respectively, $C$) be the normalizer (respectively, cent…

We compute the log canonical thresholds of non-negatively curved singular hermitian metrics on ample linearized line bundles on bi-equivariant group compactifications of complex reductive groups. To this end, we associate to any such metric a convex function whose asymptotic behavior determines the log canonical thresh…

We prove a version of the affine Kempf-Ness theorem for non-algebraic symplectic structures and shifted moment maps, and use it to describe hyperkahler quotients of T*G, where G is a complex reductive group.

Reduced sample complexity for group-invariant distributions.

In this paper we study the scalar geometries occurring in the dimensional reduction of minimal five-dimensional supergravity to three Euclidean dimensions, and find that these depend on whether one first reduces over space or over time. In both cases the scalar manifold of the reduced theory is described as an eight-di…

We study existence of invariant Einstein metrics on complex Stiefel manifolds $G/K = \SU(\ell+m+n)/\SU(n) $ and the special unitary groups $G = \SU(\ell+m+n)$. We decompose the Lie algebra $\frak g$ of $G$ and the tangent space $\frak p$ of $G/K$, by using the generalized flag manifolds $G/H = \SU(\ell+m+n)/\s(\U(\ell)…
