Isomorphic algebra connects Toeplitz to Heisenberg group.

Higher-dimensional Milnor frames are characterized and contrasted with 3D Heisenberg and 4D nilpotent Lie algebras.

H-type Lie algebras were introduced by Kaplan as a class of real Lie algebras generalizing the familiar Heisenberg Lie algebra $\mathfrak{h}^3$. The H-type property depends on a choice of inner product on the Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$. Among the H-type Lie algebras are the complex Heisenberg Lie algebras $\mathfrak{h}…

We study possible cases of complex simple graded Lie algebras of depth 2, which are the Tanaka prolongations of pseudo $H$-type Lie algebras arising through representation of Clifford algebras. We show that the complex simple Lie algebras of type $B_n$ with $|2|$-grading do not contain non-Heisenberg pseudo $H$-type Li…

New Einstein metrics found on specific Lie algebras.

The paper identifies all flat CR Lie groups and their structures.

Every real simple non-compact Lie algebra not isomorphic to $\mathfrak{so}(1,n)$ contains a unique standard parabolic subalgebra whose nilradical is a generalized Heisenberg algebra. Here we discuss the associated parabolic geometries and the riemannian geometry of the harmonic spaces having the former as conformal inf…

We give some examples of non-complete invariant affine connections on nilpotent and filiform Lie groups. This permits to describe non-nilpotent faithful representations on the model of filiform n-dimensional Lie algebras and, in particular, on the 3 dimensional Heisenberg algebra.

We show that every non-compact simple real Lie algebra not isomorphic to so(n,1) has a unique conjugacy class of parabolic subalgebras whose nilradical is of Heisenberg type, or non-singular, and give some applications.

We study left-invariant locally conformally Kähler structures on Lie groups, or equivalently, on Lie algebras. We give some properties of these structures in general, and then we consider the special cases when its complex structure is bi-invariant or abelian. In the former case, we show that no such Lie algebra is uni…

The paper classifies Lie groups with specific quasi-Einstein metrics.

We study the geodesics problem in Heisenberg group H (case SR and riemannian). The sheaf of infinitesimal automorphisms of the (2n,2n+1) distribution D over H is an infinite, transitive Lie algebra sheaf.

Study derivations for nilpotent Lie algebras with negative Ricci curvature.

If a Lie algebra structures $\gG$ on a vector space is the sum of a family of mutually compatible Lie algebra structures $\gG_i$, we say that $\gG$ is \emph{simply assembled} from $\gG_s$'s. By repeating this procedure several times one gets a family of Lie algebras \emph{assembled} from $\gG_s$'s. The central result o…

We introduce a class of non-commutative, complex, infinite-dimensional Heisenberg like Lie groups based on an abstract Wiener space. The holomorphic functions which are also square integrable with respect to a heat kernel measure $μ$ on these groups are studied. In particular, we establish a unitary equivalence between…

Dani and Mainkar introduced a method for constructing a 2-step nilpotent Lie algebra $\mathfrak{n}_G$ from a simple directed graph $G$ in 2005. There is a natural inner product on $\mathfrak{n}_G$ arising from the construction. We study geometric properties of the associated simply connected 2-step nilpotent Lie group …

We consider the question of whether a given solvable Lie group admits a left-invariant metric of strictly negative Ricci curvature. We give necessary and sufficient conditions of the existence of such a metric for the Lie groups the nilradical of whose Lie algebra is either abelian or Heisenberg or standard filiform, a…

This paper investigates Lie Quandles and Leibniz Racks, extending Noether's first theorem.

If a Lie algebra structure g on a vector space is the sum of a family of mutually compatible Lie algebra structures g_i's, we say that g is simply assembled from the g_i's. Repeating this procedure with a number of Lie algebras, themselves simply assembled from the g_i's, one obtains a Lie algebra assembled in two step…

The notion of $Γ$-symmetric space is a natural generalization of the classical notion of symmetric space based on $\z_2$-grading of Lie algebras. In our case, we consider homogeneous spaces $G/H$ such that the Lie algebra $\g$ of $G$ admits a $Γ$-grading where $Γ$ is a finite abelian group. In this work we study Rieman…

Study on a specific type of Lie algebras with Kähler and contact properties.

The notion of $Γ$-symmetric space is a natural generalization of the classical notion of symmetric space based on $\Z_2$-grading of Lie algebras. In our case, we consider homogeneous spaces $G/H$ such that the Lie algebra $\g$ of $G$ admits a $Γ$-grading where $Γ$ is a finite abelian group. In this work we study Rieman…

We are interested in the class, in the Elie Cartan sense, of left invariant forms on a Lie group. We construct the class of Lie algebras provided with a contact form and classify the frobeniusian Lie algebras up to a contraction. We also study forms which are invariant by a subgroup. We show that the simple group SL(2n…

In this paper, we study the Ricci-Bourguignon flow on higher dimensional classical Heisenberg nilpotent Lie groups and construct a solution of this flow on Heisenberg and quaternion nilpotent Lie groups. In the end, we investigate the deformation of spectrum and length spectrum on compact nilmanifolds obtained of Heise…

We consider canonical symplectic structure on the moduli space of flat ${\g}$-connections on a Riemann surface of genus $g$ with $n$ marked points. For ${\g}$ being a semisimple Lie algebra we obtain an explicit efficient formula for this symplectic form and prove that it may be represented as a sum of $n$ copies of Ki…

The paper explores associative structures in pseudo-Riemannian Lie algebras and their geometric implications.

We obtain some general results on Sasakian Lie algebras and prove as a consequence that a (2n + 1)-dimensional nilpotent Lie group admitting left-invariant Sasakian structures is isomorphic to the real Heisenberg group $H_{2n + 1}$. Furthermore, we classify Sasakian Lie algebras of dimension 5 and determine which of th…

New conformally Einstein metrics on Heisenberg group found.

We give definition of a holonomy flag in subRiemannian geometry --- a generalization of a Riemannian holonomy algebra --- and calculate it for the 3D subRiemannian Lie groups. We rewrite and give new interpretation for the Codazzi equations for the $(2,3)$-distributions on the $SU(2)$ and the Heisenberg group.

We classify connected Lie groups which are locally isomorphic to generalized Heisenberg groups. For a given generalized Heisenberg group $N$, there is a one-to-one correspondence between the set of isomorphism classes of connected Lie groups which are locally isomorphic to $N$ and a union of certain quotients of noncom…

This work is devoted to the study of a class of Poisson-Lie groups endowed with left invariant metrics. The triples $(G,π,<,>)$ are considered, where $G$ is a simply connected Lie group, ?$π$ is a multiplicative Poisson tensor and $<,>$ is a left invariant riemannian metric such that Hawkins conditions are satisfied. H…

Researchers describe Casimir functions for 3- and 4-step nilpotent Lie groups.

This work concerns the non-flat metrics on the Heisenberg Lie group of dimension three $\Heis_3(\RR)$ and the bi-invariant metrics on the solvable Lie groups of dimension four. On $\Heis_3(\RR)$ we prove that the property of the metric being naturally reductive is equivalent to the property of the center being non-dege…

In this paper we study the geodesic flow on nilmanifolds equipped with a left-invariant metric. We write the underlying definitions and find general formulas for the Poisson involution. As an example we develop the Heisenberg Lie group equipped with its canonical metric. We prove that a family of first integrals giving…

In 1995, S. Adams and G. Stuck as well as A. Zeghib independently provided a classification of non-compact Lie groups which can act isometrically and locally effectively on compact Lorentzian manifolds. In the case that the corresponding Lie algebra contains a direct summand isomorphic to the two-dimensional special li…

For a real, non-singular, 2-step nilpotent Lie algebra $\mathfrak{n}$, the group \Aut(\mathfrak{n})/\Aut_0(\mathfrak{n})$, where$\Aut_0(\mathfrak{n})$ is the group of automorphisms which act trivially on the center, is the direct product of a compact group with the 1-dimensional group of dilations. Maximality of some …
