Desingularizing Compact Lie Group Actions
This note surveys the well-known structure of G-manifolds and summarizes parts of two papers that have not yet appeared: [4], joint with J. Brüning and F. W. Kamber, and [8], joint with I. Prokhorenkov. In particular, from a given manifold on which a compact Lie group acts smoothly, we construct a sequence of manifolds on which the same Lie group acts, but with fewer levels of singular strata. ...
متن کاملLie group actions on compact
Let G be a homotopically trivial and effective compact Lie group action on a compact manifold N of nonpositive curvature. Under certain assumptions on N we prove that if G has dimension equal to rank of Center π1(N), then G must be connected. Furthermore, if on N there exists a point having negative definite Ricci tensor, then we show that G is the trivial group.
متن کامل1 3 O ct 2 00 5 The representation ring of a simply connected Lie group as a λ - ring
Adams and Conway have stated without proof a result which says, roughly speaking, that the representation ring R(G) of a compact, connected Lie group G is generated as a λ-ring by elements in 1-to-1 cor-respondance with the branches of the Dynkin diagram. In this note we present an elementary proof of this.
متن کاملWhat can one reconstruct from the representation ring of a compact group ?
It is well known that there exist non-isomorphic compact groups with isomorphic representation rings (fusion rules). Nevertheless, considerable structural information about the group can be reconstructed from its representation ring. We review these types of partial reconstruction theorems, including some recent results. In the Appendix a derivation of the ClebschGordan series of SU(2) based on...
متن کاملThe function ring functors of pointfree topology revisited
This paper establishes two new connections between the familiar function ring functor ${mathfrak R}$ on the category ${bf CRFrm}$ of completely regular frames and the category {bf CR}${mathbf sigma}${bf Frm} of completely regular $sigma$-frames as well as their counterparts for the analogous functor ${mathfrak Z}$ on the category {bf ODFrm} of 0-dimensional frames, given by the integer-valued f...
