We show that every real analytic action of a connected supersoluble Lie group on a compact surface with nonzero Euler characteristic has a fixed point. This implies that E. Lima's fixed point free $C^{\infty}$ action on $S^2$ of the affine group of the line cannot be approximated by analytic actions. An example is give…

Classifies real-analytic SL(n,R) actions on closed manifolds.

The paper classifies actions of a specific group on certain manifolds.

In a previous article, analytic 1-submanifolds had been classified w.r.t. their symmetry under a given regular and separately analytic Lie group action on an analytic manifold. It was shown that such an analytic 1-submanifold is either free or (via the exponential map) analytically diffeomorphic to the unit circle or a…

We prove that any real-analytic, volume-preserving action of a lattice $Γ$ in a simple Lie group with $\Qrank(Γ)\geq 7$ on a closed 4-manifold of nonzero Euler characteristic factors through a finite group action.

Formula derived for torsion of modified Dirac operator.

The book explores analytic properties of groups and their actions.

Constructs equivariant analytic torsion for proper actions on manifolds.

Let $X$ be a compact connected strongly pseudoconvex CR manifold of dimension $2n+1, n \ge 1$ with a transversal CR $S^1$-action on $X$. We introduce the Fourier components of the Ray-Singer analytic torsion on $X$ with respect to the $S^1$-action. We establish an asymptotic formula for the Fourier components of the an…

In this note we prove that an analytic symplectic action of a semisimple Lie algebra can be locally linearized in Darboux coordinates. This result yields simultaneous analytic linearization for Hamiltonian vector fields in a neighbourhood of a common zero. We also provide an example of smooth non-linearizable Hamiltoni…

This is a paper in Analytic Topology.

The main result of this paper is the conformal flatness of real-analytic compact Lorentz manifolds of dimension at least $3$ admitting a conformal essential (i.e. conformal, but not isometric) action of a Lie group locally isomorphic to PSL(2,R). It is established by using a general result of M. Gromov on local isometr…

Analytic curves are classified w.r.t. their symmetry under a regular and separately analytic Lie group action on an analytic manifold. We show that an analytic curve is either exponential or splits into countably many analytic immersive curves, each of them discretely generated by the symmetry group (i.e., each such cu…

Develops Bialynicki-Birula and Morse-Bott theory for complex analytic spaces.

We show that J. Lott's equivariant higher analytic torsion for compact group actions depends only on the equivariant Euler characteristic.

Analytic realization of Thom-Smale complex for G-manifolds.

This paper presents the theory of non-smooth Lie group actions on chains of Banach manifolds. The rigorous functional analytic spaces are given to deal with quotients of such actions. A hydrodynamical example is studied in detail.

We begin by showing that every real analytic orbifold has a real analytic Riemannian metric. It follows that every reduced real analytic orbifold can be expressed as a quotient of a real analytic manifold by a real analytic almost free action of a compact Lie group. We then extend a well-known result of Nomizu and Ozek…

All the actions considered here are (real) analytic. Consider a subgroup of finite index of SL(n, Z). We prove, in particular, the (global) homotopical rigidity, for both its standard affine action on the torus of dimension n > 2, and its standard projective action on the sphere of dimesnion n-1>3.

Study index theory on Lie group homogeneous spaces using topological and analytic methods.

The article consists of a survey on analytic and topological torsion. Analytic torsion is defined in terms of the spectrum of the analytic Laplace operator on a Riemannian manifold, whereas topological torsion is defined in terms of a triangulation. The celebrated theorem of Cheeger and Müller identifies these two noti…

Paper simplifies complex sports analytics models for better understanding.

The paper classifies symplectic invariants of specific singularities in integrable Hamiltonian systems.

In 1969, P. Deligne and D. Mumford compactified the moduli space of curves. Their compactification is a projective algebraic variety, and as such, it has an underlying analytic structure. Alternatively, the quotient of the augmented Teichmueller space by the action of the mapping class group gives a compactification of…

We prove results toward classifying compact Lorentz manifolds on which Heisenberg groups act isometrically. We give a general construction, leading to a new example, of codimension-one actions--those for which the dimension of the Heisenberg group is one less than the dimension of the manifold. The main result is a cla…

We show that a germ of a real analytic Lorentz metric on ${\bf R}^3$ which is locally homogeneous on an open set containing the origin in its closure is necessarily locally homogeneous. We classifiy Lie algebras that can act quasihomogeneously---meaning they act transitively on an open set admitting the origin in its c…

For linear actions of real reductive Lie groups we prove the Kempf-Ness Theorem about closed orbits and the Kirwan-Ness Stratification Theorem of the null cone. Since our completely self-contained proof focuses strongly on geometric and analytic methods, essentially avoiding any deep algebraic result, it applies also t…

We give a proof, using harmonic maps from disks to real trees, of Skora's theorem (Morgan-Otal (1993), Skora (1990), originally conjectured by Shalen): if G is the fundamental group of a surface of genus at least 2, then any small minimal G-action on a real tree is dual to the lift of a measured foliation. Analytic too…

Proves convergence of normal forms for infinite-dimensional Lie pseudo-group actions.

New proof shows path-connectedness of actions on intervals and circles.

The group of direct isometries of the real n-dimensional hyperbolic space is G=SOo(n,1). This isometric action admits many differentiable compactifications into an action on the closed ball. We prove that all such compactifications are topologically conjugate but not necessarily differentiably conjugate. We give the cl…

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…

Consider a transitive action of a Lie group $G$ on a (real analytic) manifold $M$ of dimension $m$, and two (embedded) submanifolds $A$ and $B$ in $M$ of sufficiently large class and of dimension $k$ and $l$, respectively. We prove that, for a generic $σ\in G$, the intersection $σ(A) \cap B$ is transversal, whence a su…

Let $ρ_0$ be an action of a Lie group on a manifold with boundary that is transitive on the interior. We study the set of actions that are topologically conjugate to $ρ_0$, up to smooth or analytic change of coordinates. We show that in many cases, including the compactifications of negatively curved symmetric spaces, …

Classifies actions of SL(n,R) and SL(n,Z) on closed n-manifolds.

In the case of a compact real analytic symplectic manifold M we describe an approach to the complexification of Hamiltonian flows [Se, Do1, Th1] and corresponding geodesics on the space of Kahler metrics. In this approach, motivated by recent work on quantization, the complexified Hamiltonian flows act, through the Gro…

Study of spectral invariants on CR contact manifolds with circle action.

In this paper, we assume that all isoparametric submanifolds have flat section. The main purpose of this paper is to prove that, if a full irreducible complete isoparametric submanifold of codimension greater than one in a symmetric space of non-compact type admits a reflective focal submanifold and if it of real analy…

We consider representations of the Cuntz algebras ${\mathcal O}_N$ as constructed by Bratteli-Jorgensen and use these to define a faithful action of the analytic loop group $L_{\text{an}}U(n)$ on ${\mathcal O}_N$ for $N \geq n$. This extends to a faithful action on the infinite Cuntz algebra ${\mathcal O}_{\infty}$, an…

Researchers create a framework to value player actions in CSGO.

The germ of the universal isomonodromic deformation of a logarithmic connection on a stable n-pointed genus g curve always exists in the analytic category. The first part of this paper investigates under which conditions it is the analytic germification of an algebraic isomonodromic deformation. Up to some minor techni…

Paradan and Vergne generalised the quantisation commutes with reduction principle of Guillemin and Sternberg from symplectic to Spin$^c$-manifolds. We extend their result to noncompact groups and manifolds. This leads to a result for cocompact actions, and a result for non-cocompact actions for reduction at zero. The r…

Analytic torsion behavior studied for degenerating manifolds with equivariant bundles.

We characterize the universal covering of connected analytic pseudo-Riemannian manifolds which admit a non-trivial and isometric action of the simple Lie group $SL(3,\mathbb{R})$ with a dense orbit preserving a finite volume. If such manifold is also weakly irreducible we prove that $M$ is isometric to, or a quotient s…

By using a Borel density theorem for algebraic quotients, we prove a theorem concerning isometric actions of a Lie group $G$ on a smooth or analytic manifold $M$ with a rigid $\mathrm{A}$-structure $σ$. It generalizes Gromov's centralizer and representation theorems to the case where $R(G)$ is split solvable and $G/R(G…

Let $X$ be a compact connected strongly pseudoconvex CR manifold of dimension $2n+1, n\ge 1$ with a transversal CR $S^1$-action on $X$. In this paper we introduce the Quillen metric on the determinant line of the Fourier components of the Kohn-Rossi cohomology on $X$ with respect to the $S^1$-action. We study the behav…
