Parallelepipeds, nilpotent groups and Gowers norms

Bernard Host, Bryna Kra (2008)

Bulletin de la Société Mathématique de France

Similarity:

In his proof of Szemerédi’s Theorem, Gowers introduced certain norms that are defined on a parallelepiped structure. A natural question is on which sets a parallelepiped structure (and thus a Gowers norm) can be defined. We focus on dimensions $2$ and $3$ and show when this possible, and describe a correspondence between the parallelepiped structures and nilpotent groups.

Leibniz's rule on two-step nilpotent Lie groups

Krystian Bekała (2016)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

Let be a nilpotent Lie algebra which is also regarded as a homogeneous Lie group with the Campbell-Hausdorff multiplication. This allows us to define a generalized multiplication $f g = {(f^{\lor} * g^{\lor})}^{\land}$ of two functions in the Schwartz class (*), where $^{\lor}$ and $^{\land}$ are the Abelian Fourier transforms on the Lie algebra and on the dual * and ∗ is the convolution on the group . In the operator analysis on nilpotent Lie groups an important notion is the one of symbolic calculus which can be viewed as a higher order...

Sub-Laplacian with drift in nilpotent Lie groups

Camillo Melzi (2003)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

We consider the heat kernel $ϕ_{t}$ corresponding to the left invariant sub-Laplacian with drift term in the first commutator of the Lie algebra, on a nilpotent Lie group. We improve the results obtained by G. Alexopoulos in [1], [2] proving the “exact Gaussian factor” exp(-|g|²/4(1+ε)t) in the large time upper Gaussian estimate for $ϕ_{t}$ . We also obtain a large time lower Gaussian estimate for $ϕ_{t}$ .

Asymptotic behavior of the invariant measure for a diffusion related to an NA group

Ewa Damek, Andrzej Hulanicki (2006)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

On a Lie group NA that is a split extension of a nilpotent Lie group N by a one-parameter group of automorphisms A, the heat semigroup $μ_{t}$ generated by a second order subelliptic left-invariant operator $\sum_{j = 0}^{m} Y_{j} + Y$ is considered. Under natural conditions there is a $μ ̌_{t}$ -invariant measure m on N, i.e. $μ ̌_{t} * m = m$ . Precise asymptotics of m at infinity is given for a large class of operators with Y₀,...,Yₘ generating the Lie algebra of S.

The evolution and Poisson kernels on nilpotent meta-abelian groups

Richard Penney, Roman Urban (2013)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

Let S be a semidirect product S = N⋊ A where N is a connected and simply connected, non-abelian, nilpotent meta-abelian Lie group and A is isomorphic to $ℝ^{k}$ , k>1. We consider a class of second order left-invariant differential operators on S of the form $ℒ_{α} = L^{a} + Δ_{α}$ , where $α \in ℝ^{k}$ , and for each $a \in ℝ^{k}, L^{a}$ is left-invariant second order differential operator on N and $Δ_{α} = Δ - ⟨ α, \nabla ⟩$ , where Δ is the usual Laplacian on $ℝ^{k}$ . Using some probabilistic techniques (e.g., skew-product formulas for diffusions on S and N respectively)...

Convergence of formal solutions of first order singular partial differential equations of nilpotent type

Masatake Miyake, Akira Shirai (2012)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

Let (x,y,z) ∈ ℂ³. In this paper we shall study the solvability of singular first order partial differential equations of nilpotent type by the following typical example: $P u (x, y, z) : = (y \partial_{x} - z \partial_{y}) u (x, y, z) = f (x, y, z) \in_{x, y, z}$ , where $P = y \partial_{x} - z \partial_{y} :_{x, y, z} \to_{x, y, z}$ . For this equation, our aim is to characterize the solvability on $_{x, y, z}$ by using the Im P, Coker P and Ker P, and we give the exact forms of these sets.

Hurewicz-Serre theorem in extension theory

M. Cencelj, J. Dydak, A. Mitra, A. Vavpetič (2008)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

The paper is devoted to generalizations of the Cencelj-Dranishnikov theorems relating extension properties of nilpotent CW complexes to their homology groups. Here are the main results of the paper: Theorem 0.1. Let L be a nilpotent CW complex and F the homotopy fiber of the inclusion i of L into its infinite symmetric product SP(L). If X is a metrizable space such that $X τ K (H_{k} (L), k)$ for all k ≥ 1, then $X τ K (π_{k} (F), k)$ and $X τ K (π_{k} (L), k)$ for all k ≥ $.$ Theorem 0.2. Let X be a metrizable space such that dim(X) < ∞ or X ∈...

Partial differential equations in Banach spaces involving nilpotent linear operators

Antonia Chinnì, Paolo Cubiotti (1996)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Similarity:

Let E be a Banach space. We consider a Cauchy problem of the type ⎧ $D_{t}^{k} u + \sum_{j = 0}^{k - 1} \sum_{| α | \leq m} A_{j, α} (D_{t}^{j} D_{x}^{α} u) = f$ in $ℝ^{n + 1}$ , ⎨ ⎩ $D_{t}^{j} u (0, x) = φ_{j} (x)$ in $ℝ^{n}$ , j=0,...,k-1, where each $A_{j, α}$ is a given continuous linear operator from E into itself. We prove that if the operators $A_{j, α}$ are nilpotent and pairwise commuting, then the problem is well-posed in the space of all functions $u \in C^{\infty} (ℝ^{n + 1}, E)$ whose derivatives are equi-bounded on each bounded subset of $ℝ^{n + 1}$ .

One-parameter contractions of Lie-Poisson brackets

Oksana Yakimova (2014)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We consider contractions of Lie and Poisson algebras and the behaviour of their centres under contractions. A polynomial Poisson algebra $𝒜 = 𝕂 [𝔸^{n}]$ is said to be of Kostant type, if its centre $Z (𝒜)$ is freely generated by homogeneous polynomials $F_{1}, ..., F_{r}$ such that they give Kostant’s regularity criterion on $𝔸^{n} (d_{x} F_{i}$ are linear independent if and only if the Poisson tensor has the maximal rank at $x$ ). If the initial Poisson algebra is of Kostant type and $F_{i}$ satisfy a certain degree-equality, then the contraction...

$𝒟_{n, r}$ is not potentially nilpotent for $n \geq 4 r - 2$

Yan Ling Shao, Yubin Gao, Wei Gao (2016)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

An $n \times n$ sign pattern $𝒜$ is said to be potentially nilpotent if there exists a nilpotent real matrix $B$ with the same sign pattern as $𝒜$ . Let $𝒟_{n, r}$ be an $n \times n$ sign pattern with $2 \leq r \leq n$ such that the superdiagonal and the $(n, n)$ entries are positive, the $(i, 1)$ $(i = 1, \dots, r)$ and $(i, i - r + 1)$ $(i = r + 1, \dots, n)$ entries are negative, and zeros elsewhere. We prove that for $r \geq 3$ and $n \geq 4 r - 2$ , the sign pattern $𝒟_{n, r}$ is not potentially nilpotent, and so not spectrally arbitrary.

Complete Riemannian manifolds admitting a pair of Einstein-Weyl structures

Amalendu Ghosh (2016)

Mathematica Bohemica

Similarity:

We prove that a connected Riemannian manifold admitting a pair of non-trivial Einstein-Weyl structures $(g, \pm ω)$ with constant scalar curvature is either Einstein, or the dual field of $ω$ is Killing. Next, let $(M^{n}, g)$ be a complete and connected Riemannian manifold of dimension at least $3$ admitting a pair of Einstein-Weyl structures $(g, \pm ω)$ . Then the Einstein-Weyl vector field $E$ (dual to the $1$ -form $ω$ ) generates an infinitesimal harmonic transformation if and only if $E$ is Killing.

On $G$ -sets and isospectrality

Ori Parzanchevski (2013)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

Similarity:

We study finite $G$ -sets and their tensor product with Riemannian manifolds, and obtain results on isospectral quotients and covers. In particular, we show the following: If $M$ is a compact connected Riemannian manifold (or orbifold) whose fundamental group has a finite non-cyclic quotient, then $M$ has isospectral non-isometric covers.

The groups of automorphisms of the Witt $W_{n}$ and Virasoro Lie algebras

Vladimir V. Bavula (2016)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

Let $L_{n} = K [x_{1}^{\pm 1}, ..., x_{n}^{\pm 1}]$ be a Laurent polynomial algebra over a field $K$ of characteristic zero, $W_{n} : = {Der}_{K} (L_{n})$ the Lie algebra of $K$ -derivations of the algebra $L_{n}$ , the so-called Witt Lie algebra, and let $Vir$ be the Virasoro Lie algebra which is a $1$ -dimensional central extension of the Witt Lie algebra. The Lie algebras $W_{n}$ and $Vir$ are infinite dimensional Lie algebras. We prove that the following isomorphisms of the groups of Lie algebra automorphisms hold: ${Aut}_{Lie} (Vir) ≃ {Aut}_{Lie} (W_{1}) ≃ {\pm 1} ⋉ K^{*}$ , and give a short proof that ${Aut}_{Lie} (W_{n}) ≃ {Aut}_{K - alg} (L_{n}) ≃ {GL}_{n} (ℤ) ⋉ K^{* n}$ .

The abelianization of the Johnson kernel

Alexandru Dimca, Richard Hain, Stefan Papadima (2014)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We prove that the first complex homology of the Johnson subgroup of the Torelli group $T_{g}$ is a non-trivial, unipotent $T_{g}$ -module for all $g \geq 4$ and give an explicit presentation of it as a $S y m_{.} H_{1} (T_{g}, C)$ -module when $g \geq 6$ . We do this by proving that, for a finitely generated group $G$ satisfying an assumption close to formality, the triviality of the restricted characteristic variety implies that the first homology of its Johnson kernel is a nilpotent module over the corresponding Laurent polynomial ring, isomorphic...

A new family of spectrally arbitrary ray patterns

Yinzhen Mei, Yubin Gao, Yan Ling Shao, Peng Wang (2016)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

An $n \times n$ ray pattern $𝒜$ is called a spectrally arbitrary ray pattern if the complex matrices in $Q (𝒜)$ give rise to all possible complex polynomials of degree $n$ . In a paper of Mei, Gao, Shao, and Wang (2014) was proved that the minimum number of nonzeros in an $n \times n$ irreducible spectrally arbitrary ray pattern is $3 n - 1$ . In this paper, we introduce a new family of spectrally arbitrary ray patterns of order $n$ with exactly $3 n - 1$ nonzeros.

Retracts that are kernels of locally nilpotent derivations

Dayan Liu, Xiaosong Sun (2022)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

Let $k$ be a field of characteristic zero and $B$ a $k$ -domain. Let $R$ be a retract of $B$ being the kernel of a locally nilpotent derivation of $B$ . We show that if $B = R \oplus I$ for some principal ideal $I$ (in particular, if $B$ is a UFD), then $B = R^{[1]}$ , i.e., $B$ is a polynomial algebra over $R$ in one variable. It is natural to ask that, if a retract $R$ of a $k$ -UFD $B$ is the kernel of two commuting locally nilpotent derivations of $B$ , then does it follow that $B ≅ R^{[2]}$ ? We give a negative answer to this question. The interest in...

$𝔤$ -quasi-Frobenius Lie algebras

David N. Pham (2016)

Archivum Mathematicum

Similarity:

A Lie version of Turaev’s $\bar{G}$ -Frobenius algebras from 2-dimensional homotopy quantum field theory is proposed. The foundation for this Lie version is a structure we call a $𝔤$ -quasi-Frobenius Lie algebra for $𝔤$ a finite dimensional Lie algebra. The latter consists of a quasi-Frobenius Lie algebra $(𝔮, β)$ together with a left $𝔤$ -module structure which acts on $𝔮$ via derivations and for which $β$ is $𝔤$ -invariant. Geometrically, $𝔤$ -quasi-Frobenius Lie algebras are the Lie algebra structures associated to...

Collapse of warped submersions

Szymon M. Walczak (2006)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Similarity:

We generalize the concept of warped manifold to Riemannian submersions π: M → B between two compact Riemannian manifolds $(M, g_{M})$ and $(B, g_{B})$ in the following way. If f: B → (0,∞) is a smooth function on B which is extended to a function f̂ = f ∘ π constant along the fibres of π then we define a new metric $g_{f}$ on M by $g_{f} |_{\times} \equiv g_{M} |_{\times}, g_{f} {|_{\times T M ̂} \equiv f ̂ ² g_{M} |}_{\times T M ̂}$ , where and denote the bundles of horizontal and vertical vectors. The manifold $(M, g_{f})$ obtained that way is called a warped submersion. The function f is called a warping function. We show...

Approximately Einstein ACH metrics, volume renormalization, and an invariant for contact manifolds

Neil Seshadri (2009)

Bulletin de la Société Mathématique de France

Similarity:

To any smooth compact manifold $M$ endowed with a contact structure $H$ and partially integrable almost CR structure $J$ , we prove the existence and uniqueness, modulo high-order error terms and diffeomorphism action, of an approximately Einstein ACH (asymptotically complex hyperbolic) metric $g$ on $M \times (- 1, 0)$ . We consider the asymptotic expansion, in powers of a special defining function, of the volume of $M \times (- 1, 0)$ with respect to $g$ and prove that the log term coefficient is independent of $J$ (and any choice...

Infinitesimal Morita homomorphisms and the tree-level of the LMO invariant

Gwénaël Massuyeau (2012)

Bulletin de la Société Mathématique de France

Similarity:

Let $Σ$ be a compact connected oriented surface with one boundary component, and let $π$ be the fundamental group of $Σ$ . The Johnson filtration is a decreasing sequence of subgroups of the Torelli group of $Σ$ , whose $k$ -th term consists of the self-homeomorphisms of $Σ$ that act trivially at the level of the $k$ -th nilpotent quotient of $π$ . Morita defined a homomorphism from the $k$ -th term of the Johnson filtration to the third homology group of the $k$ -th nilpotent quotient of $π$ . In this paper, we...
