The Partial Positivity of the Curvature in Riemannian Symmetric Spaces

In this paper, the partial positivity （resp., negativity） of the curvature of all irreducible Riemannian symmetric spaces is determined. From the classifications of abstract root systems and maximal subsystems, the author gives the calculations for symmetric spaces both in classical types and in exceptional types.     

Algorithms for Computing Characters for Symmetric Spaces

Symmetric spaces or more general symmetric k-varieties can be defined as the homogeneous spaces G _k /K _k , where G is a reductive algebraic group defined over a field k of characteristic not 2, K the fixed point group of an involution θ of G and G _k resp. K _k the sets k-rational points of G resp. K. These symmetric spaces have a fine structure of root systems, characters, Weyl groups etc., similar to the underlying algebraic group G. The relationship between the fine structure of the symmetric space and the group plays an important role in the study of these symmetric spaces and their applications. To develop a computer algebra package for symmetric spaces one needs explicit formulas expressing the fine structure of the symmetric space and group in terms of each other. In this paper we consider the case that k is algebraically closed and give explicit algorithmic formulas for expressing the characters of the weight lattice of the symmetric space in terms of the characters of the weight lattice of the group. These algorithms can easily be implemented in a computer algebra package. The root system of the symmetric space can be described as the image of the root system of the group under a projection π derived from an involution θ on . This implies that . Using these formulas for the characters of each of these lattices we show that in fact . A.G. Helminck is partially supported by N.S.F. Grant DMS-0532140.

Algorithms for Computations in Local Symmetric Spaces

In the last two decades much of the algebraic/combinatorial structure of Lie groups, Lie algebras, and their representations has been implemented in several excellent computer algebra packages, including LiE, GAP4, Chevie, Magma, and Maple. The structure of reductive symmetric spaces or more generally symmetric k-varieties is very similar to that of the underlying Lie group, with a few additional complications. A computer algebra package enabling one to do computations related to these symmetric spaces would be an important tool for researchers in many areas of mathematics, including representation theory, Harish Chandra modules, singularity theory, differential and algebraic geometry, mathematical physics, character sheaves, Lie theory, etc.

In this article we lay the groundwork for computing the fine structure of symmetric spaces over the real numbers and other base fields, give a complete set of algorithms for computing the fine structure of symmetric varieties and use this to compute nice bases for the local symmetric varieties.

Volume of Domains in Symmetric Spaces

The authors derive a formula for the volume of a compact domain in a symmetric space from normal sections through a special submanifold in the symmetric space.This formula generalizes the volume of classical domains as tubes or domains given as motions along the submanifold.Finally,some stereological considerations regarding this formula are provided.

Einstein Metrics with Nonpositive Sectional Curvature on Extensions of Lie Algebras of Heisenberg Type

The purpose of this article is to study some simply connected Lie groups with left invariant Einstein metric, negative Einstein constant and nonpositive sectional curvature. These Lie groups are classified if their associated metric Lie algebra s is of Iwasawa type and s = An₁n₂...n_r, where all n_iare Lie algebras of Heisenberg type with [[n_i,n_j] = {0} for ij. The most important ideas of the article are based on a construction method for Einstein spaces introduced by Wolter in 1991. By this method some new examples of Einstein spaces with nonpositive curvature are constructed. In another part of the article it is shown that Damek-Ricci spaces have negative sectional curvature if and only if they are symmetric spaces.

On the Commutativity of Weakly Commutative Riemannian Homogeneous Spaces

A Riemannian homogeneous space X=G/H is said to be commutative if the algebra of G-invariant differential operators on X is commutative and weakly commutative if the associated Poisson algebra is commutative. Clearly, the commutativity of X implies its weak commutativity. The converse implication is proved in this paper.

The Inverse Mean Curvature Flow in Rotationally Symmetric Spaces

In this paper, the motion of inverse mean curvature flow which starts from a closed star-sharped hypersurface in special rotationally symmetric spaces is studied. It is proved that the flow converges to a unique geodesic sphere, i.e., every principle curvature of the hypersurfaces converges to a same constant under the flow.

Additive Maps Preserving Moore-Penrose Inverses of Matrices on Symmetric Matrix Spaces

Suppose F is a field of characteristic not 2. Let M_nF and S_nF be the n × n full matrix space and symmetric matrix space over F, respectively. All additive maps from S_nF to S_nF (respectively, M_nF) preserving Moore-Penrose inverses of matrices are characterized. We first characterize all additive Moore-Penrose inverse preserving maps from S_nF to M_nF, and thereby, all additive Moore-Penrose inverse preserving maps from S_nF to itself are characterized by restricting the range of these additive maps into the symmetric matrix space.     

Projective Completions of Jordan Pairs,Part II: Manifold Structures and Symmetric Spaces

We define symmetric spaces in arbitrary dimension and over arbitrary non-discrete topological fields , and we construct manifolds and symmetric spaces associated to topological continuous quasi-inverse Jordan pairs and -triple systems. This class of spaces, called smooth generalized projective geometries, generalizes the well-known (finite or infinite-dimensional) bounded symmetric domains as well as their ‘compact-like’ duals. An interpretation of such geometries as models of Quantum Mechanics is proposed, and particular attention is paid to geometries that might be considered as ‘standard models’ – they are associated to associative continuous inverse algebras and to Jordan algebras of hermitian elements in such an algebra.Mathematics Subject Classiffications (2000). primary: 17C36, 46H70, 17C65; secondary: 17C30, 17C90
