Explicit Betti numbers for a family of nilpotent Lie algebras

Betti numbers for the Heisenberg Lie algebras were calculated by Santharoubane in his 1983 paper. However few other examples have appeared in the literature. In this note we give the Betti numbers for a family of -dimensional 2-step nilpotent extensions of by .

     

Orbit closures in the enhanced nilpotent cone

We study the orbits of G=GL(V) in the enhanced nilpotent cone , where is the variety of nilpotent endomorphisms of V. These orbits are parametrized by bipartitions of n=dimV, and we prove that the closure ordering corresponds to a natural partial order on bipartitions. Moreover, we prove that the local intersection cohomology of the orbit closures is given by certain bipartition analogues of Kostka polynomials, defined by Shoji. Finally, we make a connection with Kato's exotic nilpotent cone in type C, proving that the closure ordering is the same, and conjecturing that the intersection cohomology is the same but with degrees doubled.     

Failure of hypoellipticity for the canonical solution to $${\bar\partial_b}$$ on some nilpotent Lie groups

In this paper we show that Kohn’s solution to the \({\bar\partial_b}\) problem fails to be hypoelliptic on some class of high codimension submanifolds of \({\mathbb{C}^n}\). The examples presented here carry a Lie group structure which generalize the one-dimensional Heisenberg group.     

The maximal Abelian dimension of linear algebras formed by strictly upper triangular matrices

We compute the largest dimension of the Abelian Lie subalgebras contained in the Lie algebra of n×n strictly upper triangular matrices, where n ∈ ℕ \ {1}. We do this by proving a conjecture, which we previously advanced, about this dimension. We introduce an algorithm and use it first to study the two simplest particular cases and then to study the general case. __________ Translated from Teoreticheskaya i Matematicheskaya Fizika, Vol. 152, No. 3, pp. 419–429, September, 2007.     

Radon transforms on Siegel-type nilpotent Lie groups

Let \mathfrak{N}:={{\displaystyle H}}_n\times {ℂ}^n be the Siegel-type nilpotent group, which can be identified as the Shilov boundary of Siegel domain of type II, where {{\displaystyle H}}_n denotes the set of all n\times n Hermitian matrices. In this article, we use singular convolution operators to define Radon transform on \mathfrak{N} and obtain the inversion formulas of Radon transforms. Moveover, we show that Radon transform on \mathfrak{N} is a unitary operator from Sobolev space W^n;2 into L²(\mathfrak{N}):
