We construct the space of vector fields on a generic quantum group. Its elements are products of elements of the quantum group itself with left-invariant vector fields. We study the duality between vector fields and one-forms and generalize the construction to tensor fields. A Lie derivative along any (also non-left-invariant) vector field is proposed and a puzzling ambiguity in its definition discussed. These results hold for a generic Hopf algebra.

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.

The purpose of this paper is to determine left-invariant vector fields on a Lie group G with a left-invariant Riemannian metric which induces C- flows on G.

Let G be a compact Lie group and A(G) its Burnside Ring. For a compact smooth n-dimensional G-manifold X equipped with a generic G-invariant vector field v, we prove an equivariant analog of the Morse formula [Formula: see text] which takes its values in A(G). Here Ind G(v) denotes the equivariant index of the field v, [Formula: see text] the v-induced Morse stratification (see [10]) of the boundary ∂X, and [Formula: see text] the class of the (n - k)-manifold [Formula: see text] in A(G). We examine some applications of this formula to the equivariant real algebraic fields v in compact domains X ⊂ ℝn defined via a generic polynomial inequality. Next, we link the above formula with the equivariant degrees of certain Gauss maps. This link is an equivariant generalization of Gottlieb's formulas ([3, 4]).

AbstractIn this paper, we first classify Einstein-like metrics on hypercomplex four-dimensional Lie groups. Then we obtain the exact form of all harmonic maps on these spaces. We also calculate the energy of an arbitrary left-invariant vector field X on these spaces and determine all critical points for their energy functional restricted to vector fields of the same length. Furthermore, we give a complete and explicit description of all totally geodesic hypersurfaces of these spaces. The existence of Einstein hypercomplex four-dimensional Lie groups and the non-existence of non-trivial left-invariant Ricci and Yamabe solitons on these spaces are also proved.

International audience We define parallelograms of base a and b in a group. They appear as minimal relators in a presentation of a subgroup with generators a and b. In a Lie group they are realized as closed polygonal lines, with sides being orbits of left-invariant vector fields. We estimate the number of sides of parallelograms in a free nilpotent group and point out a relation to the rank of rational series.

Let G be a Lie group equipped with a set of left invariant vector fields. These vector fields generate a function ξ on Wiener space into G via the stochastic version of Cartan's rolling map. It is shown here that, for any smooth function f with compact support, f(ξ) is Malliavin differentiable to all orders and these derivatives belong to Lp(μ) for all p > 1, where μ is Wiener measure.
