AbstractLet S be a subsemigroup of a simply connected nilpotent Lie group G. We construct an asymptotic semigroup S0 in the associated graded Lie group G0 of G. We can compute the image of S0 in the abelianization $$ {G}_0^{\mathrm{ab}}={G}^{\mathrm{ab}}. $$ G 0 ab = G ab . This gives useful information about S. As an application, we obtain a transparent proof of the following result of E. B. Vinberg and the author: either there is an epimorphism f : G → ℝ such that f (s) ≥ 0 for every s in S or the closure $$ \overline{S} $$ S ¯ of S is a subgroup of G and $$ G/\overline{S} $$ G / S ¯ is compact.

Let G be a connected, simply connected nilpotent Lie group, H and K be connected subgroups of G. We show in this paper that the action of K on X = G/H is proper if and only if the triple (G,H,K) has the compact intersection property in both cases where G is at most three-step and where G is special, extending then earlier cases. The result is also proved for exponential homogeneous space on which acts a maximal subgroup.

Abstract For a locally compact group G, we study the distality of the action of automorphisms T of G on Sub G , the compact space of closed subgroups of G endowed with the Chabauty topology. For a certain class of discrete groups G, we show that T acts distally on Sub G if and only if T n is the identity map for some $n\in\mathbb N$ . As an application, we get that for a T-invariant lattice Γ in a simply connected nilpotent Lie group G, T acts distally on Sub G if and only if it acts distally on SubΓ. This also holds for any closed T-invariant co-compact subgroup Γ in G. For a lattice Γ in a simply connected solvable Lie group, we study conditions under which its automorphisms act distally on SubΓ. We construct an example highlighting the difference between the behaviour of automorphisms on a lattice in a solvable Lie group and that in a nilpotent Lie group. We also characterise automorphisms of a lattice Γ in a connected semisimple Lie group which act distally on SubΓ. For torsion-free compactly generated nilpotent (metrisable) groups G, we obtain the following characterisation: T acts distally on Sub G if and only if T is contained in a compact subgroup of Aut(G). Using these results, we characterise the class of such groups G which act distally on Sub G . We also show that any compactly generated distal group G is Lie projective.

AbstractIf N is a simply connected real nilpotent Lie group with a Γ-rational complex structure, where Γ is a lattice in N, then for each s, t.We study relations between invariant complex structures and Hodge numbers of compact nilmanifolds from a viewpoint of Lie algberas.

Recently A, Malcev has shown that the homogeneous space of a connected nilpotent Lie group G is the direct product of a compact space and an Euclidean-space and that the compact space of this direct decomposition is also a homogeneous space of a connected subgroup of G. Any compact homogeneous space M of a connected nilpotent Lie group is of the form where is a connected simply connected nilpotent group whose structure constants are rational numbers in a suitable coordinate system and D is a discrete subgroup of G.

AbstractWe formulate and prove two versions of Miyachi’s theorem for connected, simply connected nilpotent Lie groups. This allows us to prove the sharpness of the constant 1/4 in the theorems of Hardy and of Cowling and Price for any nilpotent Lie group. These theorems are proved using a variant of Miyachi’s theorem for the group Fourier transform.

AbstractLet Γ be a dense subgroup of a simply connected nilpotent Lie group G generated by a finite symmetric set S. We consider the n-ball Sn for the word metric induced by S on Γ. We show that Sn (with uniform measure) becomes equidistributed on G with respect to the Haar measure as n tends to infinity. We also prove the analogous result for random walk averages.

Abstract We define solitons for the generalized Ricci flow on an exact Courant algebroid. We then define a family of flows for left-invariant Dorfman brackets on an exact Courant algebroid over a simply connected nilpotent Lie group, generalizing the bracket flows for nilpotent Lie brackets in a way that might make this new family of flows useful for the study of generalized geometric flows such as the generalized Ricci flow. We provide explicit examples of both constructions on the Heisenberg group. We also discuss solutions to the generalized Ricci flow on the Heisenberg group.

AbstractIn this paper one more canonical method to construct the irreducible unitary representations of a connected, simply connected nilpotent Lie group is introduced. Although we used Kirillov' analysis to deduce this procedure, the method obtained differs from that of Kirillov's, in that one does not need to consider the codjoint representation of the group in the dual of its Lie algebra (in fact, neither does one need to consider the Lie algebra of the group, provided one knows certain connected subgroups and their characters). The method also differs from that of Mackey's as one only needs to induce characters to obtain all irreducible representations of the group.
