Abstract We study the natural functional $F=\frac {\operatorname {scal}^2}{|\operatorname {Ric}|^2}$ on the space of all non-flat left-invariant metrics on all solvable Lie groups of a given dimension $n$. As an application of properties of the beta operator, we obtain that solvsolitons are the only global maxima of $F$ restricted to the set of all left-invariant metrics on a given unimodular solvable Lie group, and beyond the unimodular case, we obtain the same result for almost-abelian Lie groups. Many other aspects of the behavior of $F$ are clarified.

We consider the effects of vacuum polarization and particle creation of a scalar field on Lie groups with a non-stationary bi-invariant metric of the Robertson–Walker type. The vacuum expectation values of the energy momentum tensor for a scalar field determined by the group representation are found using the noncommutative integration method for the field equations instead of separation of variables. The results obtained are illustrated by the example of the three-dimensional rotation group.
