A careful roadtrip from locally symmetric spaces to algebra

I'm trying to break the classification of locally riemannian symmetric spaces to little steps to make it more comprehensible (and s.t. the technical details can be verified without drowning completely …

Generalizing the Fourier isomorphism between Sobolev spaces and weighted $L^2$ spaces to (lo...

Motivating examples: Let $V$ be a real vector space with Haar measure $dv$. The fourier transform induces the following topological isomorphism: $$H^s(V,dv) \cong L^2(V^*,(1+|v^*|^2)^sdv^*)$$ The L …

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 …

From Weyl groups to Weyl groupoids?

I'm trying to find a framework where the choices in the classical construction of a root system of a semi-simple lie algebra are not needed. Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a semisimple lie algebra. Defin …

Vector fields, diffeomorphism subgroups and lie group actions

Let $M$ be a compact smooth manifold. Since any vector field is complete we get a $1$-parameter subgroup for each vector field. Consider the following generalization: Let $\{X_j\} \in Vect(M)$ be a f …

Generating Irreducible representations of a simple lie algebra with Schur functors

Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a simple lie algebra over $\mathbb{C}$. Let $Rep(\mathfrak{g})$ denote the category of finite dimensional $\mathfrak{g}$-modules. For every $V \in Rep(\mathfrak{g})$ define $Rep_ …
