Equivariant Morse theory for non-compact Lie groups

Let $G$ be a Lie group acting properly on a smooth manifold $M$. The (non-equivariant) definition of a Morse function does not carry over to equivariant functions $M \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ (where $\...

Equivariant vector bundles whose quotient map preserves the stabilizer

Let $G$ be a compact Lie group which act on a manifold $M$. We fix this action throughout our question. Assume that $E\to M$ is a vector bundle which has the potential of admitting ...

Spin equivariance of the Dirac operator-flat case

This question was posed on Math.SE but no one has answered it; it may be suitable for MathOverflow. Let $D$ be the Dirac operator on $\mathbb{R}^n$ i.e. $D=\sum_{j=1}^nE_j\frac{\partial}{\partial ...

Non-Symmetric Equivariant Riemannian Metrics on Homogeneous Spaces

For a homogeneous space $M = G/H$, the number of $H$-equivariant Riemannian metrics on $M$ is usually much smaller than the space of Riemannian metrics. I am wondering what happens when the symmetric ...

Jets of Equivariant Vector Bundles

Let $M$ be a (compact) $G$-homogeneous space with fibre group $H$, and let ${\cal E}$ be a $G$-equivariant $k$-dimensional vector bundle over $M$ with corresponding representation $\pi:H \to $R$^k$. ...
