Infinite Dimensional

In a long sequence of notes in the Comptes Rendus and elsewhere, and in the papers [1], [2], [3], [6], [7], Lichnerowicz and his collaborators have studied the ‘classical infinite-dimensional Lie algebras’, their derivations, automorphisms, co-homology, and other properties. The most familiar of these algebras is the Lie algebra of C∞ vector fields on a C∞ manifold. Another is the Lie algebra of ‘Poisson brackets’, that is, of C∞ functions on a C∞ symplectic manifold, with the Poisson bracket as composition; some questions concerning this algebra are of considerable interest in the theory of quantization – see, for instance, [2] and [3].

AbstractIn this paper, we consider a special class of solvable Lie groups such that for any x, y in their Lie algebras, [x, y] is a linear combination of x and y. We investigate the harmonicity properties of invariant vector fields of this kind of Lorentzian Lie groups. It is shown that any invariant unit time-like vector field is spatially harmonic. Moreover, we determine all vector fields which are critical points of the energy functional restricted to the space of smooth vector fields.

Infinitesimal Automorphisms

It is known (Pursell and Shanks [9]) that an isomorphism between Lie algebras of infinitesimal automorphisms of C∞ structures with compact support on manifolds M and M′ yields an isomorphism between C∞ structures of M and M’.Omori [5] proved that this is still true for some other structures on manifolds. More precisely, let M and M′ be Hausdorff and finite dimensional manifolds without boundary. Let α be one of the following structures:

Symmetry Algebras

In this investigation, we present symmetry algebras of the canonical geodesic equations of the indecomposable solvable Lie groups of dimension five, confined to algebras A 5 , 7 a b c to A 18 a . For each algebra, the related system of geodesics is provided. Moreover, a basis for the associated Lie algebra of the symmetry vector fields, as well as the corresponding nonzero brackets, are constructed and categorized.
