Transitive riemannian isometry groups with nilpotent radicals

ISOMETRY GROUPS OF k-CURVATURE HOMOGENEOUS PSEUDO-RIEMANNIAN MANIFOLDS

We study the isometry groups of a family of complete p + 2curvature homogeneous pseudo-Riemannian metrics on R which have neutral signature (3 + 2p, 3 + 2p), and which are 0-curvature modeled on an indecomposible symmetric space.

Riemannian Submersions and Lattices in 2-step Nilpotent Lie Groups

We consider simply connected, 2-step nilpotent Lie groups N, all of which are diffeomorphic to Euclidean spaces via the Lie group exponential map exp : ˆ → N. We show that every such N with a suitable left invariant metric is the base space of a Riemannian submersion ρ : N* → N, where the fibers of ρ are flat, totally geodesic Euclidean spaces. The left invariant metric and Lie algebra of N* ar...

Nilpotent Groups

The articles [2], [3], [4], [6], [7], [5], [8], [9], [10], and [1] provide the notation and terminology for this paper. For simplicity, we use the following convention: x is a set, G is a group, A, B, H, H1, H2 are subgroups of G, a, b, c are elements of G, F is a finite sequence of elements of the carrier of G, and i, j are elements of N. One can prove the following propositions: (1) ab = a · ...

Nilpotent groups with three conjugacy classes of non-normal subgroups

‎Let $G$ be a finite group and $nu(G)$ denote the number of conjugacy classes of non-normal subgroups of $G$‎. ‎In this paper‎, ‎all nilpotent groups $G$ with $nu(G)=3$ are classified‎.
