AbstractBy recent work on some conjectures of Pillay, each definably compact group G in a saturated o-minimal expansion of an ordered field has a normal “infinitesimal subgroup” G00 such that the quotient G/G00, equipped with the “logic topology”, is a compact (real) Lie group. Our first result is that the functor G ↦ G/G00 sends exact sequences of definably compact groups into exact sequences of Lie groups. We then study the connections between the Lie group G/G00 and the o-minimal spectrum of G. We prove that G/G00 is a topological quotient of . We thus obtain a natural homomorphism Ψ* from the cohomology of G/G00 to the (Čech-)cohomology of . We show that if G00 satisfies a suitable contractibility conjecture then is acyclic in Čech cohomology and Ψ is an isomorphism. Finally we prove the conjecture in some special cases.

AbstractBy recent work on some conjectures of Pillay, each definably compact group in a saturated o-minimal structure is an extension of a compact Lie group by a torsion free normal divisible subgroup, called its infinitesimal subgroup. We show that the infinitesimal subgroup is cohomologically acyclic. This implies that the functorial correspondence between definably compact groups and Lie groups preserves the cohomology.

In this paper a number of questions about locally compact groups are studied. The structure of finite dimensional connected locally compact groups is investigated, and a fairly simple representation of such groups is obtained. Using this it is proved that finite dimensional arcwise connected locally compact groups are Lie groups, and that in general arcwise connected locally compact groups are locally connected. Semi-simple locally compact groups are then investigated, and it is shown that under suitable restrictions these satisfy many of the properties of semi-simple Lie groups. For example, a factor group of a semi-simple locally compact group is semi-simple. A result of Zassenhaus, Auslander and Wang is reformulated, and in this new formulation it is shown to be true under more general conditions. This fact is used in the study of (C)-groups in the sense of K. Iwasawa.

The aim of this paper is to classify invariant flows on Lie group $G$ whose Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ is associative or semisimple. Specifically, we present this classification from the hyperbolicity of the lift flows on $G \times \mathfrak{g}$. Then we apply this construction to some special cases as ${\rm Gl}(2,{\Bbb R})$ and affine Lie group.

AbstractRiesz polynomials are employed to give a sufficient condition for a non-abelian compact group G to have an infinite uniformly approximable Sidon set. This condition is satisfied if G admits infinitely many pairwise inequivalent continuous irreducible unitary representations of the same degree. Consequently a compact Lie group admits an infinite Sidon set if and only if it is not semi-simple.

We explain the basic ideas behind the concept of diffusive wavelets on spheres in the language of representation theory of Lie groups and within the framework of the group Fourier transform given by the Peter-Weyl decomposition of L2() for a compact Lie group . After developing a general concept for compact groups and their homogeneous spaces, we give concrete examples for tori, which reflect the situation on ℝn, and for 2 and 3 spheres.

We propose a systematic and topological study of limits \(\lim_{\nu\to 0^+}G_\mathbb{R}\cdot(\nu x)\) of continuous families of adjoint orbits for a non-compact simple real Lie group \(G_\mathbb{R}\). This limit is always a finite union of nilpotent orbits. We describe explicitly these nilpotent orbits in terms of Richardson orbits in the case of hyperbolic semisimple elements. We also show that one can approximate minimal nilpotent orbits or even nilpotent orbits by elliptic semisimple orbits. The special cases of \(\mathrm{SL}_n(\mathbb{R})\) and \(\mathrm{SU}(p,q)\) are computed in detail.

Continuous one-parameter semigroups {μt}t≥0 of probability measures on a locally compact group which are semistable with respect to some automorphism τ of the group, namely such that τ(μt) = μct for all t ≥ 0, for a fixed c ∈ (0, 1), have attracted considerable attention of various researchers in recent years (cf. [3], [5] and other references cited therein). A detailed study of semistable measures on (real) Lie groups is carried out in [5]. In this context it is of interest to study semistable measures on the class of p-adic Lie groups, which is another significant class of locally compact groups.

AbstractLet G be a second countable locally compact group possessing a normal subgroup N with G/N abelian. We prove that if G/N is discrete then G has T1 primitive ideal space if and only if the G-quasiorbits in Prim N are closed. This condition on G-quasiorbits arose in Pukanzky's work on connected and simply connected solvable Lie groups where it is equivalent to the condition of Auslander and Moore that G be type R on N (-nilradical). Using an abstract version of Pukanzky's arguments due to Green and Pedersen we establish that if G is a connected and simply connected Lie group then Prim G is T1 whenever G-quasiorbits in [G, G] are closed.

Abstract The following question is proposed by Martino, Tointon, Valiunas and Ventura in [4, question 1·20]: Let G be a compact group, and suppose that \[\mathcal{N}_k(G) = \{(x_1,\dots,x_{k+1}) \in G^{k+1} \;|\; [x_1,\dots, x_{k+1}] = 1\}\] has positive Haar measure in $G^{k+1}$ . Does G have an open k-step nilpotent subgroup? We give a positive answer for $k = 2$ .
