Adjoint orbits of $\mathfrak{sl}(2,\mathbb{R})$ and their geometry

Let $\mathrm{SL}(n,\mathbb{R})$ be the special linear group and $\mathfrak{sl}(n,\mathbb{R})$ its Lie algebra. We study geometric properties associated to the adjoint orbits in the simplest non-trivial case, namely, those of $\mathfrak{sl}(2,\mathbb{R})$. In particular, we show that just three possibilities arise: either the adjoint orbit is a one-sheeted hyperboloid, or a two-sheeted hyperboloid, or else a cone. In addition, we introduce a specific potential and study the corresponding gradient vector field and its dynamics when we restricted to the adjoint orbit. We conclude by describing th…

Contractions of group representations via geometric quantisation

We propose a general framework to contract unitary dual of Lie groups via holomorphic quantization of their co-adjoint orbits. The sufficient condition for the contractability of a representation is expressed via cocycles on coadjoint orbits. This condition is checked explicitly for the contraction of ${\mathrm SU}_2$ into $\mathbb{H}$. The main tool is the geometric quantization. We construct two types of contractions that can be implemented on every matrix Lie group with diagonal contraction matrix.

Small oscillations and the Heisenberg Lie algebra

The Adler Kostant Symes [A-K-S] scheme is used to describe mechanical systems for quadratic Hamiltonians of $\mathbb R^{2n}$ on coadjoint orbits of the Heisenberg Lie group. The coadjoint orbits are realized in a solvable Lie algebra $\mathfrak g$ that admits an ad-invariant metric. Its quadratic induces the Hamiltonian on the orbits, whose Hamiltonian system is equivalent to that one on $\mathbb R^{2n}$. This system is a Lax pair equation whose solution can be computed with help of the Adjoint representation. For a certain class of functions, the Poisson commutativity on the coadjoint orbits …

The Orbit Method for Finite Groups of Nilpotency Class Two of Odd Order

First, I construct an isomorphism between the categories of (topological) groups of nilpotency class 2 with 2-divisible center and (topological) Lie rings of nilpotency class 2 with 2-divisible center. That isomorphism allows us to construct adjoint and coadjoint representations as usual. For a finite group G of nilpotency class 2 of odd order, I construct a basis in its group algebra C[G], parameterized by elements of g* so that the elements of coadjoint orbits form bases of simple two-side ideals of C[G]. That construction gives us a one-to-one correspondence between G-orbits in g* and class…

On Horn's Problem and its Volume Function

We consider an extended version of Horn's problem: given two orbits $\mathcal{O}_α$ and $\mathcal{O}_β$ of a linear representation of a compact Lie group, let $A\in \mathcal{O}_α$, $B\in \mathcal{O}_β$ be independent and invariantly distributed random elements of the two orbits. The problem is to describe the probability distribution of the orbit of the sum $A+B$. We study in particular the familiar case of coadjoint orbits, and also the orbits of self-adjoint real, complex and quaternionic matrices under the conjugation actions of $\mathrm{SO}(n)$, $\mathrm{SU}(n)$ and $\mathrm{USp}(n)$ respe…
