Simple Lie Algebra

The twist deformations for simple Lie algebras [Formula: see text] whose twisting elements ℱ are known explicitly are usually defined on the carrier subspace injected in the Borel subalgebra [Formula: see text]. We consider the case where the carrier of the twist intersects nontrivially with both [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]. The main element of the new deformation is the parabolic twist ℱ℘ whose carrier is the minimal parabolic subalgebra of simple Lie algebra [Formula: see text]. It has the structure of the algebra of two-dimensional motions, contains [Formula: see text] and intersects nontrivially with [Formula: see text]. The twist ℱ℘ is constructed as a composition of the extended jordanian twist [Formula: see text] and the factor [Formula: see text]. The latter can be considered as a special deformed version of the jordanian twist. The twisted costructure is found for [Formula: see text] and the corresponding universal ℛ-matrix is presented. The parabolic twist can be composed with certain types of chains of extended jordanian twists for algebras A2(n-1). The chains enlarged by the parabolic factor ℱ℘ perform the explicit quantization of the new set of classical r-matrices.

In this paper we use U(2), the group of 2 × 2 unitary matrices, to parametrize the space of all self-adjoint boundary conditions for a fixed Sturm–Liouville equation on the interval [0, 1]. The adjoint action of U(2) on itself naturally leads to a refined classification of self-adjoint boundary conditions – each adjoint orbit is a subclass of these boundary conditions. We give explicit parametrizations of those adjoint orbits of principal type, i.e. orbits diffeomorphic to the 2-sphere S2, and investigate the behaviour of the nth eigenvalue λnas a function on such orbits.

AbstractFor a real vector space V acted on by a group K and fixed x and y in V, we consider the problem of finding the minimum (respectively, maximum) distance, relative to a K-invariant convex function on V, between x and elements of the convex hull of the K-orbit of y. We solve this problem in the case where V is a Euclidean space and K is a finite reflection group acting on V. Then we use this result to obtain an analogous result in the case where K is a maximal compact subgroup of a reductive group G with adjoint action on the vector component ρ of a Cartan decomposition of Lie G. Our results generalize results of Li and Tsing and of Cheng concerning distances to the convex hulls of matrix orbits.

Nilpotent Elements

LetGbe a simple adjoint algebraic group over an algebraically closed fieldK. We are concerned to describe the conjugacy classes of unipotent elements ofG. Goperates on its Lie algebra g by means of the adjoint action and we may consider classes of nilpotent elements of g under this action. It has been shown by Springer (11) that there is a bijection between the unipotent elements ofGand the nilpotent elements ofgwhich preserves theG-action, provided that the characteristic ofKis either 0 or a ‘good prime’ forG. Thus we may concentrate on the problem of classifying the nilpotent elements of g under the adjointG-action.
