This paper studies holomorphic homogeneous real hypersurfaces in C3 associated with the unique non-solvable indecomposable 5-dimensional Lie algebra 𝑔5 (in accordance with Mubarakzyanov’s notation). Unlike many other 5-dimensional Lie algebras with “highly symmetric” orbits, non-degenerate orbits of 𝑔5 are “simply homogeneous”, i.e. their symmetry algebras are exactly 5-dimensional. All those orbits are equivalent (up to holomorphic equivalence) to the specific indefinite algebraic surface of the fourth order. The proofs of those statements involve the method of holomorphic realizations of abstract Lie algebras. We use the approach proposed by Beloshapka and Kossovskiy, which is based on the simultaneous simplification of several basis vector fields. Three auxiliary lemmas formulated in the text let us straighten two basis vector fields of 𝑔5 and significantly simplify the third field. There is a very important assumption which is used in our considerations: we suppose that all orbits of 𝑔5 are Levi non-degenerate. Using the method of holomorphic realizations, it is easy to show that one need only consider two sets of holomorphic vector fields associated with 𝑔5. We prove that only one of these sets leads to Levi non-degenerate orbits. Considering the commutation relations of 𝑔5, we obtain a simplified basis of vector fields and a corresponding integrable system of partial differential equations. Finally, we get the equation of the orbit (unique up to holomorphic transformations) (𝑣 − 𝑥2𝑦1)2 + 𝑦2 1𝑦2 2 = 𝑦1, which is the equation of the algebraic surface of the fourth order with the indefinite Levi form. Then we analyze the obtained equation using the method of Moser normal forms. Considering the holomorphic invariant polynomial of the fourth order corresponding to our equation, we can prove (using a number of results obtained by A.V. Loboda) that the upper bound of the dimension of maximal symmetry algebra associated with the obtained orbit is equal to 6. The holomorphic invariant polynomial mentioned above differs from the known invariant polynomials of Cartan’s and Winkelmann’s types corresponding to other hypersurfaces with 6- dimensional symmetry algebras.

AbstractClosed expressions for the first, second, and (in some cases) the third moment of atomic transition arrays now exist. Recently a method has been developed for getting to very high moments (up to the 12th and beyond) in cases where a “collective” state-vector (i.e. a state-vector containing the entire electric dipole strength) can be created from each eigenstate in the parent configuration. Both of these approaches give exact results. Herein we describe astatistical(or Monte Carlo) approach which requires onlyonerepresentative state-vector |RV> for the entire parent manifold to get estimates of transition moments of high order. The representation is achieved through the random amplitudes associated with each basis vector making up |RV>. This also gives rise to the dispersion characterizing the method, which has been applied to a system (in the M shell) with≈250,000 lines where we have calculated up to the 5th moment. It turns out that the dispersion in the moments decreases with the size of the manifold, making its application to very big systems statistically advantageous. A discussion of the method and these dispersion characteristics will be presented.
