Bundles equivariant with respect to a transitive Lie algebra action
Suppose an algebraic group $G$ transitively acts on a variety $X$. Then it is well known that $G$-equivariant vector bundles on $X$ are in correspondence with representations of the stabilizer of a ...

Reference request: Prequantization of canonical transformations and Lie group action
Hello to MathoverFlow community
I have some seemingly technical questions on applications of geometric quantisation to Lie group representation theory.
We shall start by giving background definitions....

Representation viewpoint on Chern–Weil (cohomology computations done with rep theory?)
$\DeclareMathOperator\Sym{Sym}$Let $G$ be a compact lie group. Chern–Weil theory tells us that there's a homomorphism:
$$H^{*}(BG;\mathbb{R}) \to (\Sym^{\bullet} \mathfrak{g^*})^G$$
which in our case ...

When representation of two different coadjoint orbits are equivalent?
Let $G$ be a compact connected Lie group and $\mu:T\to S^1$ be a representation of a maximal torus $T \subset G$ and $\lambda=d\mu$ be a weight for some $\lambda\in\mathfrak{t}^*$ (where $\mathfrak{t}$...

Action of $F_4$ on generalized flag manifolds
Does there exist (as elementary as possible) a generalized flag manifold (e.g. sphere, projective space, Grassmanian, etc.) of a simple classical Lie group (SL, SO or Sp over real or complex field), ...
