Study bi-graded Lie algebras and their applications.

In this second part of the `essay on the completion of quantum theory' we define the {\em unitary setting of completed quantum mechanics}, by adding as intrinsic data to those from Part I (arXiv:1711.08643) the choice of a north pole N and south pole S in the geometric space. Then we explain that, in the unitary settin…

In the two papers of this series, we initiate the development of a new approach to implementing the concept of symmetry in classical field theory, based on replacing Lie groups/algebras by Lie groupoids/algebroids, which are the appropriate mathematical tools to describe local symmetries when gauge transformations are …

Introduces new algebraic structures for relational groupoids and proves a reduction theorem.

In the present paper we give a differential geometry formulation of the basic dynamical principle of the group--algebraic approach \cite{LeS92} --- the grading condition --- in terms of some holomorphic distributions on flag manifolds associated with the parabolic subgroups of a complex Lie group; and a derivation of t…

Paper classifies Schouten-like metrics on 5D nilpotent Lie groups.

In this paper, we prove the algebraic K-theory Novikov conjecture for group algebras over the ring of Schatten class operators. The main technical tool in the proof is an explicit construction of the Connes-Chern character.

If an augmented algebra K over Q is filtered by powers of its augmentation ideal I, the associated graded algebra grK need not in general be quadratic: although it is generated in degree 1, its relations may not be generated by homogeneous relations of degree 2. In this paper we give a sufficient criterion (called the …

Invariants for 4-manifolds from Hopf group-algebras.

We prove that the quotient of the group algebra of the braid group on 5 strands by a generic cubic relation has finite rank. This was conjectured in 1998 by Broué, Malle and Rouquier and has for consequence that this algebra is a flat deformation of the group algebra of the complex reflection group $G_{32}$, of order 1…

We introduce a notion of a Fox pairing in a group algebra and use Fox pairings to define automorphisms of the Malcev completions of groups. These automorphisms generalize to the algebraic setting the action of the Dehn twists in the group algebras of the fundamental groups of surfaces. This work is inspired by the Kawa…

Heat kernels are used in this paper to express the analytic index of projectively invariant Dirac type operators on G-covering spaces of compact manifolds, as elements in the K-theory of certain unconditional completions of the twisted group algebra of G. This is combined with V. Lafforgue's results in the untwisted ca…

Computes the component group of real reductive groups.

New groups algebraically fibre with high-dimensional hyperbolic groups.

Based on a recently introduced by the author notion of {\em parity}, in the present paper we construct a sequence of invariants (indexed by natural numbers $m$) of long virtual knots, valued in certain simply-defined group ${\tilde G}_{m}$ (the Cayley graphs of these groups are represented by grids in the $(m+1)$-space…

We use assembly maps to study $\mathbf{TC}(\mathbb{A}[G];p)$, the topological cyclic homology at a prime $p$ of the group algebra of a discrete group $G$ with coefficients in a connective ring spectrum $\mathbb{A}$. For any finite group, we prove that the assembly map for the family of cyclic subgroups is an isomorphis…

Survey on foliations and diffeomorphism groups.

We define a finite-dimensional cubic quotient of the group algebra of the braid group, endowed with a (essentially unique) Markov trace which affords the Links-Grould invariant of knots and links. We investigate several of its properties, and state several conjectures about its structure.

Study Kuperberg invariants for sutured manifolds using Fox calculus and Reidemeister torsion.

These lectures given in Montreal in Summer 1997 are mainly based on, and form a condensed survey of, the book by N. Chriss and V. Ginzburg: `Representation Theory and Complex Geometry', Birkhauser 1997. Various algebras arising naturally in Representation Theory such as the group algebra of a Weyl group, the universal …

A cohomology theory of the adjoint of Hopf algebras, via deformations, is presented by means of diagrammatic techniques. Explicit calculations are provided in the cases of group algebras, function algebras on groups, and the bosonization of the super line. As applications, solutions to the YBE are given and quandle coc…

Abstract: Extends Drinfeld correspondence to infinite-dimensional Lie groups.

Following Sullivan's spacial realization of a differential algebra, we construct a universal integrating Lie 2-groupoid for every Lie algebroid. Then We show that unlike Lie algebras which one-to-one correspond to simply connected Lie groups, Lie algebroids (integrable or not) one-to-one correspond to a sort of etale L…

We prove a 2-categorical analogue of a classical result of Drinfeld: there is a one-to-one correspondence between connected, simply-connected Poisson Lie 2-groups and Lie 2-bialgebras. In fact, we also prove that there is a one-to-one correspondence between connected, simply connected quasi-Poisson 2-groups and quasi-L…

Study Kähler-Ricci flow on rational homogeneous varieties using algebraic geometry and representation theory.

In this paper, we present a study on the prolongations of representations of Lie algebras. We show that a tangent bundle of a given Lie algebra attains a Lie algebra structure. Then, we prove that this tangent bundle is algebraically isomorphic to the Lie algebra of a tangent bundle of a Lie group. Using these, we defi…

Study coKähler structures on Lie algebras using Fino-Vezzoni correspondence.

In this paper, we define the corresponding submanifolds to left-invariant Riemannian metrics on Lie groups, and study the following question: does a distinguished left-invariant Riemannian metric on a Lie group correspond to a distinguished submanifold? As a result, we prove that the solvsolitons on three-dimensional s…

The paper extends Riemann-Hilbert correspondence to foliations.

Characterizes Lie groups with specific structures and finds a correspondence between carrollian and galilean Lie algebras.

We define multiplicative Poisson-Nijenhuis structures on a Lie groupoid which extends the notion of symplectic-Nijenhuis groupoid introduced by Stié23non and Xu. We also introduce a special class of Lie bialgebroid structure on a Lie algebroid $A$, called P-N Lie bialgebroid, which defines a hierarchy of compatible Lie…

Defines and computes geometric pairings for discrete groups using Baum-Connes assembly map.

For a compact oriented surface $Σ$ of genus $g$ with $n+1$ boundary components, the space $\mathfrak{g}(Σ)$ spanned by free homotopy classes of loops in $Σ$ carries the structure of a Lie bialgebra equipped with a natural decreasing filtration, whose structure morphisms are called the Goldman bracket and the (framed) T…

Study on virtual singular braid groups with algebraic properties and homomorphisms.

Uniform Lie algebras are combinatorially defined two-step nilpotent Lie algebras which can be used to define Einstein solvmanifolds. These Einstein spaces often have nontrivial isotropy groups. We derive basic properties of uniform Lie algebras and we classify uniform Lie algebras with five or fewer generators. We defi…

Introduces fat Lie theory for Lie groupoids and algebroids.

This paper shows how post-Lie algebra structures can be induced by simply transitive NIL-affine actions.

LA-Courant algebroids link double Lie bialgebroids via Manin triples.

Poisson sigma models represent an interesting use of Poisson manifolds for the construction of a classical field theory. Their definition in the language of fibre bundles is shown and the corresponding field equations are derived using a coordinate independent variational principle. The elegant form of equations of mot…

Parallel transport defined for 2-bundles over Lie groupoids.

We prove that the quotients of the group algebra of the braid group introduced by L. Funar in Comm. Math. Phys., 1995, collapses in characteristic distinct from 2. In characteristic 2 we define several quotients of it, which are connected to the classical Hecke and Birman-Wenzl-Murakami quotients, but which admit in ad…

A VB-groupoid is a Lie groupoid equipped with a compatible linear structure. In this paper, we describe a correspondence, up to isomorphism, between VB-groupoids and 2-term representations up to homotopy of Lie groupoids. Under this correspondence, the tangent bundle of a Lie groupoid G corresponds to the "adjoint repr…

In many Lagrangian field theories, there is a Poisson bracket on the space of local functionals. One may identify the fields of such theories as sections of a vector bundle. It is known that the Poisson bracket induces an sh-Lie structure on the graded space of horizontal forms on the jet bundle of the relevant vector …

We study some properties of coisotropic submanifolds of a manifold with respect to a given multivector field. Using this notion, we generalize the results of Weinstein \cite{wein} from Poisson bivector field to Nambu-Poisson tensor or more generally to any multivector field. We also introduce the notion of Nambu-Lie gr…
