If $X,Y$ are vector fields and $\def\Fl{\operatorname{Fl}}\Fl^X_t$ and $\Fl^Y_t$ their local flows, let $[\Fl^X_t,\Fl^Y_t]:= \Fl^Y_{-t}\Fl^X_{-t}\Fl^Y_t\Fl^X_t$ denote the group commutator of the ...

I'm currently searching for sources and historical basis on the notion of $(G,X)$-structure as it appears in Thurston's work. So far, it appears that he was the first to set it. Many mathematicans ...

It is known that any connected compact Lie group $G$ is a finite quotient of the product of a compact simply connected semisimple Lie group $\tilde{G}$ and a torus $\mathbb{T}^n$ (see for example ...

Let $G/H$ be a compact symmetric space. Then I believe the following is true: if $\alpha \in \Omega^k(G/H)$ and $\nabla$ the Levi-Civita connection, then $$ (\alpha \text{ is induced by an $\...

I'm fishing for the origin of the idea to consider "trace scalar product" on the space of ($G$-)orthogonal projectors as means of defining a Riemannian metric on some subset of lines in a vector space....

I'm basically wondering how to make "curved" the first column of the diagram $\require{AMScd}$ \begin{CD} P_1 @>\textrm{inclusion} >> G\\ @V \omega_0 V P_1\cap P_2 V @V\omega V P_2 V\\...
