Proper actions of locally compact groups on equivariant absolute extensors

Sergey Antonyan (2009)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

Let G be a locally compact Hausdorff group. We study equivariant absolute (neighborhood) extensors (G-AE's and G-ANE's) in the category G-ℳ of all proper G-spaces that are metrizable by a G-invariant metric. We first solve the linearization problem for proper group actions by proving that each X ∈ G-ℳ admits an equivariant embedding in a Banach G-space L such that L∖{0} is a proper G-space and L∖{0} ∈ G-AE. This implies that in G-ℳ the notions of G-A(N)E and G-A(N)R coincide. Our embedding...

A reconstruction theorem for locally moving groups acting on completely metrizable spaces

Edmund Ben-Ami (2010)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

Let G be a group which acts by homeomorphisms on a metric space X. We say the action of G is locally moving on X if for every open U ⊆ X there is a g ∈ G such that g↾X ≠ Id while g↾(X∖U) = Id. We prove the following theorem: Theorem A. Let X,Y be completely metrizable spaces and let G be a group which acts on X and Y with locally moving actions. If the orbits of the action of G on X are of the second category in X and the orbits of the action of G on Y are of the...

On metric σ-discrete spaces

Szymon Plewik, Marta Walczyńska (2016)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

By studying dimensional types of metric scattered spaces, we consider the wider class of metric σ-discrete spaces. Applying techniques relevant to this wider class, we present new proofs of some embeddable properties of countable metric spaces in such a way that they can be generalized onto uncountable metric scattered spaces. Related topics are also explored, which gives a few new results.

On naturally reductive left-invariant metrics of SL ( 2 , ℝ )

Stefan Halverscheid, Andrea Iannuzzi (2006)

Annali della Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa - Classe di Scienze

Similarity:

On any real semisimple Lie group we consider a one-parameter family of left-invariant naturally reductive metrics. Their geodesic flow in terms of Killing curves, the Levi Civita connection and the main curvature properties are explicitly computed. Furthermore we present a group theoretical revisitation of a classical realization of all simply connected 3-dimensional manifolds with a transitive group of isometries due to L. Bianchi and É. Cartan. As a consequence one obtains a characterization...
