Abstract We study the action of a real reductive group G on a real submanifold X of a Kähler manifold Z. We suppose that the action of a compact connected Lie group U with Lie algebra $\mathfrak {u}$ extends holomorphically to an action of the complexified group $U^{\mathbb {C}}$ and that the U-action on Z is Hamiltonian. If $G\subset U^{\mathbb {C}}$ is compatible, there exists a gradient map $\mu _{\mathfrak p}:X \longrightarrow \mathfrak p$ where $\mathfrak g=\mathfrak k \oplus \mathfrak p$ is a Cartan decomposition of $\mathfrak g$ . In this paper, we describe compact orbits of parabolic subgroups of G in terms of the gradient map $\mu _{\mathfrak p}$ .

AbstractWe study the action of a real reductive group G on a real submanifold X of a Kähler manifold Z. We suppose that the action of G extends holomorphically to an action of the complexified group $G^{\mathbb {C}}$ and that with respect to a compatible maximal compact subgroup U of $G^{\mathbb {C}}$ the action on Z is Hamiltonian. There is a corresponding gradient map $\mu _{\mathfrak {p}}\colon X\to \mathfrak {p}^*$ where $\mathfrak {g}=\mathfrak {k}\oplus \mathfrak {p}$ is a Cartan decomposition of $\mathfrak {g}$. We obtain a Morse-like function $\eta _{\mathfrak {p}}:=\Vert \mu _{\mathfrak {p}}\Vert ^2$ on X. Associated with critical points of $\eta _{\mathfrak {p}}$ are various sets of semistable points which we study in great detail. In particular, we have G-stable submanifolds Sβ of X which are called pre-strata. In cases where $\mu _{\mathfrak {p}}$ is proper, the pre-strata form a decomposition of X and in cases where X is compact they are the strata of a Morse-type stratification of X. Our results are generalizations of results of Kirwan obtained in the case where $G=U^{\mathbb {C}}$ and X=Z is compact.

AbstractGiven a Kähler manifold (Z, J, ω) and a compact real submanifold M ⊂ Z, we study the properties of the gradient map associated with the action of a noncompact real reductive Lie group G on the space of probability measures on M. In particular, we prove convexity results for such map when G is Abelian and we investigate how to extend them to the non-Abelian case.

AbstractLet $$(Z,\omega )$$ ( Z , ω ) be a connected Kähler manifold with an holomorphic action of the complex reductive Lie group $$U^\mathbb {C}$$ U C , where U is a compact connected Lie group acting in a hamiltonian fashion. Let G be a closed compatible Lie group of $$U^\mathbb {C}$$ U C and let M be a G-invariant connected submanifold of Z. Let $$x\in M$$ x ∈ M . If G is a real form of $$U^\mathbb {C}$$ U C , we investigate conditions such that $$G\cdot x$$ G · x compact implies $$U^\mathbb {C}\cdot x$$ U C · x is compact as well. The vice-versa is also investigated. We also characterize G-invariant real submanifolds such that the norm-square of the gradient map is constant. As an application, we prove a splitting result for real connected submanifolds of $$(Z,\omega )$$ ( Z , ω ) generalizing a result proved in Gori and Podestà (Ann Global Anal Geom 26: 315–318, 2004), see also Bedulli and Gori (Results Math 47: 194–198, 2005), Biliotti (Bull Belg Math Soc Simon Stevin 16: 107–116 2009).

This chapter shows that certain classes of Harish-Chandra modules have in a natural way a structure over ℤ. The Lie group is replaced by a split reductive group scheme G/ℤ, its Lie algebra is denoted by 𝖌ℤ. On the group scheme G/ℤ there is a Cartan involution 𝚯 that acts by t ↦ t −1 on the split maximal torus. The fixed points of G/ℤ under 𝚯 is a flat group scheme 𝒦/ℤ. A Harish-Chandra module over ℤ is a ℤ-module 𝒱 that comes with an action of the Lie algebra 𝖌ℤ, an action of the group scheme 𝒦, and some compatibility conditions is required between these two actions. Finally, 𝒦-finiteness is also required, which is that 𝒱 is a union of finitely generated ℤ modules 𝒱I that are 𝒦-invariant. The definitions imitate the definition of a Harish-Chandra modules over ℝ or over ℂ.

Abstract Let $(G,\tau )$ be a finite-dimensional Lie group with an involutive automorphism $\tau $ of $G$ and let ${{\mathfrak{g}}} = {{\mathfrak{h}}} \oplus{{\mathfrak{q}}}$ be its corresponding Lie algebra decomposition. We show that every nondegenerate strongly continuous representation on a complex Hilbert space ${\mathcal{H}}$ of an open $^\ast $-subsemigroup $S \subset G$, where $s^{\ast } = \tau (s)^{-1}$, has an analytic extension to a strongly continuous unitary representation of the 1-connected Lie group $G_1^c$ with Lie algebra $[{{\mathfrak{q}}},{{\mathfrak{q}}}] \oplus i{{\mathfrak{q}}}$. We further examine the minimal conditions under which an analytic extension to the 1-connected Lie group $G^c$ with Lie algebra ${{\mathfrak{h}}} \oplus i{{\mathfrak{q}}}$ exists. This result generalizes the Lüscher–Mack theorem and the extensions of the Lüscher–Mack theorem for $^\ast $-subsemigroups satisfying $S = S(G^\tau )_0$ by Merigon, Neeb, and Ólafsson. Finally, we prove that nondegenerate strongly continuous representations of certain $^\ast $-subsemigroups $S$ can even be extended to representations of a generalized version of an Olshanski semigroup.

Abstract We consider a subset S of the complex Lie algebra 𝔰𝔬(n, ℂ) and the cone C(S) of curvature operators which are nonnegative on S. We show that C(S) defines a Ricci flow invariant curvature condition if S is invariant under AdSO(n, ℂ). The analogue for Kähler curvature operators holds as well. Although the proof is very simple and short, it recovers all previously known invariant nonnegativity conditions. As an application we reprove that a compact Kähler manifold with positive orthogonal bisectional curvature evolves to a manifold with positive bisectional curvature and is thus biholomorphic to ℂℙn. Moreover, the methods can also be applied to prove Harnack inequalities.

In 1967 Gindikin and Vinberg stated the Fundamental Conjecture for homogeneous Kähler manifolds. It (roughly) states that every homogeneous Kähler manifold is a fiber space over a bounded homogeneous domain for which the fibers are a product of a flat with a simply connected compact homogeneous Kähler manifold. This conjecture has been proven in a number of cases (see [6] for a recent survey). In particular, it holds if the homogeneous Kähler manifold admits a reductive or an arbitrary solvable transitive group of automorphisms [5]. It is thus tempting to think about the general case. It is natural to expect that lack of knowledge about the radical of a transitive group G of automorphisms of a homogeneous Kähler manifold M is the main obstruction to a proof of the Fundamental Conjecture for M. Thus it is of importance to consider the Kähler algebra generated by the radical of the Lie algebra of G. Computations in this context suggest that one rather considers Kähler algebras generated by an arbitrary solvable ideal.

AbstractWe define stacky Lie groups to be group objects in the 2-category of differentiable stacks. We show that every connected and étale stacky Lie group is equivalent to a crossed module of the form (Γ,G) where Γ is the fundamental group of the given stacky Lie group and G is the connected and simply connected Lie group integrating the Lie algebra of the stacky group. Our result is closely related to a strictification result of Baez and Lauda.

The Kodaira–Thurston manifold is a quotient of a nilpotent Lie group by a cocompact lattice. We compute the family Gromov–Witten invariants which count pseudoholomorphic tori in the Kodaira–Thurston manifold. For a fixed symplectic form the Gromov–Witten invariant is trivial so we consider the twistor family of left-invariant symplectic forms which are orthogonal for some fixed metric on the Lie algebra. This family defines a loop in the space of symplectic forms. This is the first example of a genus one family Gromov–Witten computation for a non-Kähler manifold.
