  • The Unbroken Spectrum of Frobenius Seaweeds II: Type-B and Type-C
    The unbroken spectrum of Frobenius seaweeds II: type-B and type-C Alex Cameron∗, Vincent E. Coll, Jr.∗∗, Matthew Hyatt†, and Colton Magnant†† July 23, 2019 ∗Department of Mathematics, Lehigh University, Bethlehem, PA, USA: [email protected] ∗∗Department of Mathematics, Lehigh University, Bethlehem, PA, USA: [email protected] †FactSet Research Systems, New York, NY, USA: [email protected] †† Department of Mathematics, Clayton State University, Morrow, GA, USA: [email protected] Abstract Analogous to the Type-An−1 = sl(n) case, we show that if g is a Frobenius seaweed subalgebra of Bn = so(2n +1) or Cn = sp(2n), then the spectrum of the adjoint of a principal element consists of an unbroken set of integers whose multiplicities have a symmetric distribution. Mathematics Subject Classification 2010 : 17B20, 05E15 Key Words and Phrases: Frobenius Lie algebra, seaweed, biparabolic, principal element, Dynkin diagram, spectrum, regular functional, Weyl group 1 Introduction Notation: All Lie algebras will be finite dimensional over C, and the Lie multiplication will be denoted by [-,-]. The index of a Lie algebra is an important algebraic invariant and, for seaweed algebras, is bounded by the algebra’s rank: ind g ≤ rk g, (see [11]). More formally, the index of a Lie algebra g is given by arXiv:1907.08775v1 [math.RT] 20 Jul 2019 ind g = min dim(ker(BF )), F ∈g∗ where F is a linear form on g, and BF is the associated skew-symmetric bilinear Kirillov form, defined by BF (x,y) = F ([x,y]) for x,y ∈ g. On a given g, index-realizing functionals are called regular and exist in profusion, being dense in both the Zariski and Euclidean topologies of g∗.

QUASI-REDUCTIVE (BI)PARABOLIC SUBALGEBRAS IN THE REDUCTIVE LIE ALGEBRAS. KARIN BAUR AND ANNE MOREAU Abstract. Let g be a finite dimensional Lie algebra, and z its center. We say that g is quasi- reductive if there is f ∈ g∗ such that g(f)/z is a reductive Lie algebra whose center consists of semisimple elements, where g(f) denotes the stabilizer of f in g for the coadjoint action. If g is reductive, then g is quasi-reductive itself, and also every Borel or Levi subalgebra of g. However the parabolic subalgebras of g are not always quasi-reductive (except in types A or C, see [P03]). Biparabolic (or seaweed) subalgebras are the intersection of two parabolic subalgebras whose sum is g.

  • The Derived Algebra of a Stabilizer, Families of Coadjoint Orbits, and Sheets, Arxiv:1202.1135V2 (2012)
    The derived algebra of a stabilizer, families of coadjoint orbits, and sheets Anton Izosimov∗ Abstract Let g be a finite-dimensional real or complex Lie algebra, and let µ ∈ g∗. In the first part of the paper, the relation is discussed between the derived algebra of the stabilizer of µ and the set of coadjoint orbits which have the same dimension as the orbit of µ. In the second part, semisimple Lie algebras are considered, and the relation is discussed between the derived algebra of a centralizer and sheets. 1 Introduction Let g be a finite-dimensional real or complex Lie algebra. The group G acts on the dual space g∗ via the coadjoint action, and g∗ is foliated into the orbits of this action. Consider the union of all orbits ∗ ∗ which have the same codimension k. Denote this union by gk. Each of the sets gk is a quasi-affine ∗ algebraic variety. The study of the varieties gk was initiated by A.Kirillov in connection with the orbit method [6], which relates the unitary dual of G to the set of coadjoint orbits g∗/G. The sets ∗ ∗ gk/G appear in this picture as natural strata of g /G, therefore it is important to understand the ∗ geometry of gk for each k. ∗ So, consider a finite-dimensional real or complex Lie algebra g. Let gµ = {x ∈ g | ad x(µ)=0} be the stabilizer of an element µ ∈ g∗ with respect to the coadjoint representation of g. In the present note, the following simple geometric fact is proved: any element ξ ∈ g∗ which is tangent ∗ ∗ to the variety gk at a point µ ∈ g vanishes on the derived algebra of gµ.

  • Periodic Automorphisms of Takiff Algebras, Contractions, and Θ-Groups
    October 15, 2007 PERIODIC AUTOMORPHISMS OF TAKIFF ALGEBRAS, CONTRACTIONS, AND θ-GROUPS DMITRI I. PANYUSHEV INTRODUCTION Let G be a connected reductive algebraic group with Lie algebra g. The ground field | is algebraically closed and of characteristic zero. Fundamental results in invariant theory of the adjoint representation of G are primarily associated with C. Chevalley and B. Kostant. Especially, one should distinguish the ”Chevalley restriction theorem” and seminal article of Kostant [5]. Later, Kostant and Rallis extended these results to the isotropy representa- tion of a symmetric variety [6]. In 1975, E.B. Vinberg came up with the theory of θ-groups. This theory generalises and presents in the most natural form invariant-theoretic results previously known for the adjoint representation and isotropy representations of the sym- metric varieties. Let us remind the main construction and results of Vinberg's article [15]. Let θ Aut(g) 2 be a periodic (= finite order) automorphism of g. The order of θ is denoted by θ . Fix a jθj j j primitive root of unity ζ = p1 and consider the periodic grading (or Zjθj-grading) g = gi ; i Z M2 jθj i θ where gi is the ζ -eigenspace of θ. In particular, g0 = g is the fixed point subalgebra for θ. Let G0 be the connected subgroup of G with Lie algebra g0. The restriction of the adjoint representation yields the natural homomorphism G GL(g ). The linear groups 0 ! 1 obtained in this way are called θ-groups, and the point is that they have the best possible invariant-theoretic properties: |[g ]G0 is a polynomial algebra; • 1 the quotient morphism π : g g ==G = Spec(|[g ]G0 ) is flat; • 1 ! 1 0 1 each fibre of π contains finitely many G -orbits.

In fact, the tangent space to a coadjoint orbit O(α) at the point α corresponds to the characteristic space associated to the left invariant form α and its dimension is the even part of the Cartan class of α. We apply this remark to determine Lie algebras such that all the nontrivial orbits (nonreduced to a point) have the same dimension, in particular when this dimension is 2 or 4.

We study invariant Nijenhuis (1; 1)-tensors on a homogeneous space G=K of a reductive Lie group G from the point of view of integrability of a Hamiltonian system of differential equations with the G-invariant Hamiltonian function on the cotangent bun- ∗ ∗ dle T (G=K). Such a tensor induces an invariant Poisson tensor Π1 on T (G=K), which is Poisson compatible with the canonical Poisson tensor ΠT ∗(G=K). This Poisson pair can be reduced to the space of G-invariant functions on T ∗(G=K) and produces a family of Poisson commuting G-invariant functions. We give, in Lie algebraic terms, necessary and sufficient conditions of the completeness of this family. As an application we prove Liouville integra- bility in the class of analytic integrals polynomial in momenta of the geodesic flow on two series of homogeneous spaces G=K of compact Lie groups G for two kinds of metrics: the normal metric and new classes of metrics related to decomposition of G to two subgroups G = G1 · G2, where G=Gi are symmetric spaces, K = G1 \ G2.

  • Coadjoint Orbits of Reductive Type of Seaweed Lie Algebras
    COADJOINT ORBITS OF REDUCTIVE TYPE OF SEAWEED LIE ALGEBRAS ANNE MOREAU AND OKSANA YAKIMOVA ABSTRACT. A connected algebraic group Q defined over a field of characteristic zero is quasi-reductive if there is an element of q∗ of reductive type, that is such that the quotient of its stabiliser by the centre of Q is a reductive subgroup of GL(q). Such groups appear in harmonic analysis when unitary representations are studied. In particular, over the field of real numbers they turn out to be the groups with discrete series and their irreducible unitary square integrable representations are parameterised by coadjoint orbits of reductive type. Due to results of M. Duflo, coadjoint representation of a quasi- reductive Q possesses a so called maximal reductive stabiliser and knowing this subgroup, defined up to a conjugation in Q, one can describe all coadjoint orbits of reductive type. In this paper, we consider quasi-reductive parabolic subalgebras of simple complex Lie algebras as well as seaweed subalgebras of gln(C) and describe the classes of their maximal reductive stabilisers. 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1. Suppose that k is a field of characteristic zero and Q a connected algebraic (or Lie) group defined over k. Let q = Lie Q be the Lie algebra of Q. Let Z denote the centre of Q. A linear function γ ∈ q∗ is said to be of reductive type if the quotient Qγ /Z of the stabiliser Qγ ⊂ Q for the coadjoint action is a reductive subgroup of GL(q∗) (or, what is equivalent, of GL(q)). Whenever it makes sense, we will also say that γ is of compact type if Qγ /Z is compact.

    Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach Report No. 21/2012 DOI: 10.4171/OWR/2012/21 Toric Geometry Organised by Klaus Altmann, Berlin Victor Batyrev, T¨ubingen Yael Karshon, Toronto April 15th – April 21st, 2012 Abstract. Toric Geometry plays a major role where a wide variety of math- ematical fields intersect, such as algebraic and symplectic geometry, algebraic groups, and combinatorics. The main feature of this workshop was to bring people from these area together to learn about mutual, possibly up till now unnoticed similarities in their respective research. Mathematics Subject Classification (2000): 14M25, 53D37, 52B20. Introduction by the Organisers The workshop “Toric Geometry” was attended by 53 people including many young participants. The idea was to shed light on the subject from many different points of view – toric geometry involves methods from algebraic and symplectic geometry, algebraic groups, and discrete mathematics. A major driving force combining all these directions is still provided by the dif- ferent flavours of mirror symmetry. So it is quite natural that related subjects like Lagrangians in symplectic manifolds showed up in many talks (Abreu, Woodward, Ono, Lau, Sjamaar). A very common feature that appeared in many talks was the attempt to weaken assumptions in the setting of algebraic or symplectic toric varieties. This was done by either considering higher complexities of torus actions, or by relaxing the demands on the symplectic forms, or by studying non-algebraic situations or more general algebraic groups than just tori (Timashev, Hausen, S¨uß, Knop, Tolman, Holm, Masuda). Polyhedral methods and their interplay with resolutions and deformations or degenerations is a classical feature of toric geometry.

  • Reduction by Stages and the Ra¨Is-Type Formula for the Index of Lie Algebra Extensions
    Noname manuscript No. (will be inserted by the editor) Andriy Panasyuk Reduction by stages and the Ra¨ıs-type formula for the index of Lie algebra extensions 0 Introduction The index of a Lie algebra is defined as the dimension of the stabilizer of a generic element with respect to the coadjoint representation, or equivalently, the codimension of a generic coadjoint orbit. The index is an important characteristic of a Lie algebra, which is used in different applications. The aim of this note is to give a generalization of the so-called Ra¨ıs formula for the index of a semidirect product of a Lie algebra and an abelian ideal. It is well known that the index of a semisimple Lie algebra coincides with its rank. For the nonsemisimple case, one of the most popular in applications related result is the above mentioned Ra¨ıs formula calculating the index of a semidirect product s = g ×ρ V of a Lie algebra g and a vector space V , by means of the representation ρ∗ : g → gl(V ∗) dual to the representation ρ ([Rai78], see also Corollary 1.8). More precisely, the index of s is equal to the sum of the codimension of a generic orbit of ρ∗ and the index of the stabilizer with respect to ρ∗ of a generic element in V ∗. The Ra¨ıs formula, first proved by purely algebraic methods, can be also deduced from Poisson geometric results on semidirect products. Namely, the following theorem could be found in [RSTS94, Section 5]. If s = g ×ρ V is a ∗ ∗ semidirect product and Vν := g × Oν , where Oν ⊂ V is the G-orbit of any ∗ ∗ element ν ∈ V , then: 1) Vν is a Poisson submanifold in (g ×ρ V ) ; 2) Vν is ∗ Poisson diffeomorphic to T G/Gν (here G ⊃ Gν are the Lie groups corre- ∗ sponding to the Lie algebras g, gν, where gν is the stabilizer of ν, T G/Gν is endowed with the Poisson structure being the reduction of the canonical one).

This concerns the follow- ing notions and results: the existence of generic stabilisers and generic isotropy groups for (finite-dimensional rational) representations; structure of the fields and algebras of invariants; quotient morphisms and structure of their fibres. One of the main tools for obtaining non-reductive Lie algebras is the semi-direct product construction. There is a number of articles devoted to the study of the coadjoint representations of non-reductive 2000 Mathematics Subject Classification.
