Classifies curvature homogeneous hypersurfaces in S^4 and H^4.

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…

We prove that any compact homogeneous locally conformally Kähler manifold has parallel Lee form.

Normal forms and moduli stacks for flat connections on complex manifolds.

This paper proves that there are no compact forms for a large class of homogeneous spaces admitting actions by higher-rank semisimple Lie groups. It builds on Zimmer's approach for studying such spaces using cocycle superrigidity. The proof involves cocycle superrigidity, measure rigidity for unipotent flows, technique…

The paper proves rigidity theorems for forms on reductive symmetric spaces.

It is shown that the geometry of locally homogeneous multisymplectic manifolds (that is, smooth manifolds equipped with a closed nondegenerate form of degree > 1, which is locally homogeneous of degree k with respect to a local Euler field) is characterized by their automorphisms. Thus, locally homogeneous multisymplec…

Novel singularity models for 4D harmonic forms and spinors from polytopes.

Study of homogeneous spaces in Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov theory.

We consider four dimensional conformally flat homogeneous pseudo Riemannian manifolds. According to forms (Seger types) of the Ricci operator, we provide a full classification of four dimensional pseudo Riemannian conformally flat homogeneous Ricci solitons.

In this article we prove that under certain assumptions, a reductive homogeneous space G/H does not admit a solvable compact Clifford-Klein form. This generalizes the well known non-existence theorem of Benoist for nilpotent Clifford-Klein forms. This generalization works for a particular class of homogeneous spaces de…

Study on Einstein manifolds with specific properties.

The present work is devoted to compact completely solvable solvmanifolds which admit Kahlerian metrics whose Kahler forms are homogeneous. In particular, we show that such manifolds are diffeomorphic to flat tori. Our proof is based on Dynkin diagrams associated to left invariant closed 2-forms in completely solvable L…

We study geodesics of the form $γ(t)=π(\exp(tX)\exp(tY))$, $X,Y\in \fr{g}=\operatorname{Lie}(G)$, in homogeneous spaces $G/K$, where $π:G\rightarrow G/K$ is the natural projection. These curves naturally generalise homogeneous geodesics, that is orbits of one-parameter subgroups of $G$ (i.e. $γ(t)=π(\exp (tX))$, $X\in …

We detect Hilbert manifolds among isometrically homogeneous metric spaces and apply the obtained results to recognizing Hilbert manifolds among homogeneous spaces of the form G/H where G is a metrizable topological group and H is a closed balanced subgroup of G.

Classifies compact Clifford-Klein forms for specific Lie algebras.

We study the geometry of homogeneous hypersurfaces and their focal sets in complex hyperbolic spaces. In particular, we provide a characterization of the focal set in terms of its second fundamental form and determine the principal curvatures of the homogeneous hypersurfaces together with their multiplicities.

In this note we construct a first example of a closed 3-form of $\tilde G_2$-type on $S^3\times S^4$. We prove that $S^3\times S^4$ does not admit a homogeneous 3-form of $\tilde G_2$-type. Thus our example is a first example of a closed 3-form of $\tilde G_2$-type on a compact 7-manifold which is not stably homogeneou…

Researchers classify special curved spheres in a complex space.

A homogeneous space G/H is said to have a compact Clifford-Klein form if there exists a discrete subgroup D of G that acts properly discontinuously on G/H, such that the quotient space D\G/H is compact. When n is even, we find every closed, connected subgroup H of G = SO(2,n), such that G/H has a compact Clifford-Klein…

We classify tube domains in $\mathbb C^{n+1}$ ($n\ge 1$) with affinely homogeneous base of their boundary and a.) with positive definite Levi form and b.) with Lorentzian type Levi form and affine isotropy of dimension at least $\frac{(n-2)(n-3)}2$.

We study isoparametric submanifolds of rank at least two in a separable Hilbert space, which are known to be homogeneous by a result of Heintze and Liu, and associate to such a submanifold M and a point x in M a canonical homogeneous structure (a certain bilinear map on the tangent space). We prove that the homogeneous…

Hypersurfaces with constant Ricci eigenvalues in real space forms are classified.

We classify all compact simply connected homogeneous CR manifolds $M$ of codimension one and with non-degenerate Levi form up to CR equivalence. The classification is based on our previous results and on a description of the maximal connected compact group $G(M)$ of automorphisms of $M$. We characterize also the standa…

The paper defines unimodularity for coisotropic Poisson spaces and discusses invariant volume forms.

We provide a necessary condition for the existence of a compact Clifford-Klein form of a given homogeneous space of reductive type. The key to the proof is to combine a result of Kobayashi-Ono with an elementary fact that certain two different Clifford-Klein forms have the same cohomology ring. We give some examples, S…

In this paper we show some results on homogeneous CR manifolds, proved by introducing their associated CR algebras. In particular, we give different notions of nondegeneracy (generalizing the usual notion for the Levi form) which correspond to geometrical properties for the corresponding manifolds. We also give disting…

Let V be the pseudo-Euclidean vector space of signature (p,q), p>2 and W a module over the even Clifford algebra Cl^0 (V). A homogeneous quaternionic manifold (M,Q) is constructed for any spin(V)-equivariant linear map Π: \wedge^2 W \to V. If the skew symmetric vector valued bilinear form Πis nondegenerate then (M,Q) i…

Harmonic 3-forms defined on compact homogeneous spaces are studied and conditions for their harmonicity are provided.

We construct, for a homogeneous Lagrangian of arbitrary order in two independent variables, a differential 2-form with the property that it is closed precisely when the Lagrangian is null. This is similar to the property of the `fundamental Lepage equivalent' associated with first-order Lagrangians defined on jets of s…

In this paper we study flag curvature of invariant $(α,β)$-metrics of the form $\frac{(α+β)^2}α$ on homogeneous spaces and Lie groups. We give a formula for flag curvature of invariant metrics of the form $F=\frac{(α+β)^2}α$ such that $α$ is induced by an invariant Riemannian metric $g$ on the homogeneous space and the…
