On the topology of spherically symmetric space-times

J. Szenthe (2004)

Open Mathematics

Similarity:

Spherically symmetric space-times have attained considerable attention ever since the early beginnings of the theory of general relativity. In fact, they have appeared already in the papers of K. Schwarzschild [12] and W. De Sitter [5] which were published in 1916 and 1917 respectively soon after Einstein's epoch-making work [7] in 1915. The present survey is concerned mainly with recent results pertainig to the toplogy of spherically symmetric space-times. Definition. By space-time...

Bounded symmetric domains and derived geometric structures

Wilhelm Kaup (2002)

Atti della Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei. Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali. Rendiconti Lincei. Matematica e Applicazioni

Similarity:

Every homogeneous circular convex domain D ⊂ C n (a bounded symmetric domain) gives rise to two interesting Lie groups: The semi-simple group G = A ⁢ u ⁢ t ⁢ D of all biholomorphic automorphisms of D and its isotropy subgroup K ⊂ G ⁢ L ⁢ n , C at the origin (a maximal compact subgroup of G ). The group G acts in a natural way on the compact dual X of D (a certain compactification of C n that generalizes the Riemann sphere in case D is the unit disk in C ). Various authors have studied the orbit structure of the G -space X , here...

On quasihomogeneous manifolds – via Brion-Luna-Vust theorem

Marco Andreatta, Jarosław A. Wiśniewski (2003)

Bollettino dell'Unione Matematica Italiana

Similarity:

We consider a smooth projective variety X on which a simple algebraic group G acts with an open orbit. We discuss a theorem of Brion-Luna-Vust in order to relate the action of G with the induced action of G on the normal bundle of a closed orbit of the action. We get effective results in case G = S ⁢ L ⁢ n and dim ⁡ X ≤ 2 ⁢ n - 2 .

On orbits of the automorphism group on an affine toric variety

Ivan Arzhantsev, Ivan Bazhov (2013)

Open Mathematics

Similarity:

Let X be an affine toric variety. The total coordinates on X provide a canonical presentation X ¯ → X of X as a quotient of a vector space X ¯ by a linear action of a quasitorus. We prove that the orbits of the connected component of the automorphism group Aut(X) on X coincide with the Luna strata defined by the canonical quotient presentation.
