The length of a unitary transformation.
This article gives a local answer to the coquecigrue problem for Leibniz algebras, that is, the problem of finding a generalization of the (Lie) group structure such that Leibniz algebras are the corresponding tangent algebra structure. Using links between Leibniz algebra cohomology and Lie rack cohomology, we generalize the integration of a Lie algebra into a Lie group by proving that every Leibniz algebra is isomorphic to the tangent Leibniz algebra of a local Lie rack. This article ends with...
Let be an algebraically closed field of characteristic . We study obstructions to lifting to characteristic the faithful continuous action of a finite group on . To each such a theorem of Katz and Gabber associates an action of on a smooth projective curve over . We say that the KGB obstruction of vanishes if acts on a smooth projective curve in characteristic in such a way that and have the same genus for all subgroups . We determine for which the KGB obstruction...
