AbstractIn this article, making use of the second author’s criterion for exponentiality of a connected solvable Lie group, we give a rather simple necessary and sufficient condition for the semidirect product of a torus acting on certain connected solvable Lie groups to be exponential.

Abstract We study the natural functional $F=\frac {\operatorname {scal}^2}{|\operatorname {Ric}|^2}$ on the space of all non-flat left-invariant metrics on all solvable Lie groups of a given dimension $n$. As an application of properties of the beta operator, we obtain that solvsolitons are the only global maxima of $F$ restricted to the set of all left-invariant metrics on a given unimodular solvable Lie group, and beyond the unimodular case, we obtain the same result for almost-abelian Lie groups. Many other aspects of the behavior of $F$ are clarified.

Let Γ.𝒜 be the semi-direct product group of a nuclear Lie group Γ with the additive group 𝒜 of a real nuclear vector space. We give an explicit description of all the continuous representations of Γ.𝒜 the restriction of which to 𝒜 is a cyclic unitary representation, and a necessary and sufficient condition for the unitarity of such cylindrical representations is stated. This general result is successfully used to obtain irreducible unitary representations of the nuclear Lie groups of Riemannian motions, and, in the setting of the theory of multiplicative distributions initiated by I.M. Gelfand, it is proved that for any connected real finite dimensional Lie groupGand for any strictly positive integerkthere exist non located and non trivially decomposable representations of orderkof the nuclear Lie group(M;G) of all theG-valued test-functions on a given paracompact manifoldM.

In this paper, we obtain the expressions of the ∗-Ricci operator of a three-dimensional almost Kenmotsu manifold [Formula: see text] and find that the ∗-Ricci tensor is not symmetric for [Formula: see text]. We obtain a necessary and sufficient condition for the ∗-Ricci tensor to be symmetric and proved that if the ∗-Ricci tensor of a non-Kenmotsu almost Kenmotsu 3-[Formula: see text]-manifold [Formula: see text] is symmetric, then [Formula: see text] is locally isometric to a three-dimensional non-unimodular Lie group equipped with a left invariant non-Kenmotsu almost Kenmotsu structure. Further, it is shown that the ∗-Ricci tensor of a non-Kenmotsu almost Kenmotsu 3-manifold [Formula: see text] is parallel if and only if [Formula: see text] is ∗-Ricci flat. In addition, [Formula: see text] satisfying [Formula: see text] is locally isometric to [Formula: see text]. Finally, we discuss about [Formula: see text]-parallel ∗-Ricci tensor on almost Kenmotsu 3-manifolds.

AbstractIn this paper we prove two main results. The first is a necessary and sufficient condition for a semidirect product of a semilattice by a group to be finitely generated. The second result is a necessary and sufficient condition for such a semidirect product to be finitely presented.

AbstractLet G be a Lie group, Go the connected component of G that contains the identity, and Aut G the group of all topological automorphisms of G. In the case when G/Go is finite and G has a faithful representation, we obtain a necessary and sufficient condition for G so that Aut G has finitely many components in terms of the maximal central torus in Go.

AbstractIt was one of great successes of Kirillov's orbit method to see that the unitary dual of an exponential Lie group is in bijective correspondence with the orbit space associated with the linear dual of the Lie algebra of the group in question. To show that this correspondence is an homeomorphism turned out to be unexpectedly difficult. Only in 1994 H. Leptin and J. Ludwig gave a proof using the notion of variable groups. In this article their proof in the case of completely solvable Lie group is reorganized, some “philosophy” and some new arguments are added. The purpose is to contribute to a better understanding of this proof.

Abstract We study the existence of cocompact lattices in Lie groups with bi-invariant metric of signature $(2,n-2)$. We assume in addition that the Lie groups under consideration are simply-connected, indecomposable, and solvable. Then their centre is one- or two-dimensional. In both cases, a parametrisation of the set of such Lie groups is known. We give a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of a lattice in terms of these parameters. For groups with one-dimensional centre this problem is related to Salem numbers.

AbstractIn this paper we deal with the class $$\mathcal {C}$$ C of decomposable solvable Lie groups having dimension six. We determine those Lie groups in $$\mathcal {C}$$ C and their subgroups which are the multiplication groups Mult(L) and the inner mapping groups Inn(L) for three-dimensional connected simply connected topological loops L. This result completes the classification of the at most 6-dimensional solvable multiplication Lie groups of the loops L. Moreover, we obtain that every at most 3-dimensional connected topological proper loop having a solvable Lie group of dimension at most six as its multiplication group is centrally nilpotent of class two.
