Hardy's theorem and rotations

We prove an extension of Hardy's classical characterization of real Gaussians of the form , , to the case of complex Gaussians in which is a complex number with positive real part. Such functions represent rotations in the complex plane of real Gaussians. A condition on the rate of decay of analytic extensions of a function and its Fourier transform along some pair of lines in the complex plane is shown to imply that is a complex Gaussian.

Lévy processes in semisimple Lie groups and stability of stochastic flows

We study the asymptotic stability of stochastic flows on compact spaces induced by Levy processes in semisimple Lie groups. It is shown that the Lyapunov exponents can be determined naturally in terms of root structure of the Lie group and there is an open subset whose complement has a positive codimension such that, after a random rotation, each of its connected components is shrunk to a single moving point exponentially under the flow.

On the orders of finite semisimple groups

The aim of this paper is to investigate the order coincidences among the finite semisimple groups and to give a reasoning of such order coincidences through the transitive actions of compact Lie groups. It is a theorem of Artin and Tits that a finite simple group is determined by its order, with the exception of the groups (A₃(2), A₂(4)) and(B _n (q), C _n (q)) forn ≥ 3,q odd. We investigate the situation for finite semisimple groups of Lie type. It turns out that the order of the finite group H( ) for a split semisimple algebraic groupH defined over , does not determine the groupH up to isomorphism, but it determines the field under some mild conditions. We then put a group structure on the pairs(H ₁,H ₂) of split semisimple groups defined over a fixed field such that the orders of the finite groups H₁( ) and H₂( ) are the same and the groupsH _i have no common simple direct factors. We obtain an explicit set of generators for this abelian, torsion-free group. We finally show that the order coincidences for some of these generators can be understood by the inclusions of transitive actions of compact Lie groups.     

Harmonic morphisms from the classical compact semisimple Lie groups

In this article, we introduce a new method for manufacturing harmonic morphisms from semi-Riemannian manifolds. This is employed to yield a variety of new examples from the compact Lie groups SO(n), SU(n) and Sp(n) equipped with their standard Riemannian metrics. We develop a duality principle and show how this can be used to construct the first known examples of harmonic morphisms from the non-compact Lie groups , SU ^*(2n), , SO ^*(2n), SO(p, q), SU(p, q) and Sp(p, q) equipped with their standard dual semi-Riemannian metrics.

Virtually semisimple modules and a generalization of the Wedderburn-Artin theorem

A widely used result of Wedderburn and Artin states that “every left ideal of a ring R is a direct summand of R if and only if R has a unique decomposition as a finite direct product of matrix rings over division rings.” Motivated by this, we call a module M virtually semisimple if every submodule of M is isomorphic to a direct summand of M and M is called completely virtually semisimple if every submodule of M is virtually semisimple. We show that the left R-module R is completely virtually semisimple if and only if R has a unique decomposition as a finite direct product of matrix rings over principal left ideal domains. This shows that R is completely virtually semisimple on both sides if and only if every finitely generated (left and right) R-module is a direct sum of a singular module and a projective virtually semisimple module. The Wedderburn-Artin theorem follows as a corollary from our result.     

Embeddings of

We show that there is only one embedding of in at the prime , up to self-maps of . We also describe the effect of the group of self-equivalences of at the prime on this embedding and then show that the Friedlander exceptional isogeny composed with a suitable Adams map is an involution of whose homotopy fixed point set coincide with

     

Restricted Lie algebras all whose elements are semisimple

People studied the properties and structures of restricted Lie algebras all whose elements are semisimple. It is the main objective of this paper to continue the investigation in order to obtain deeper structure theorems. We obtain some sufficient conditions for the commutativity of restricted Lie algebras, generalize some results of R. Farnsteiner and characterize some properties of a finite-dimensional semisimple restricted Lie algebra all whose elements are semisimple. Moreover, we show that a centralsimple restricted Lie algebra all whose elements are semisimple over a field of characteristic p > 7 is a form of a classical Lie algebra.     

Totally nonnegative and oscillatory elements in semisimple groups

We generalize the well known characterizations of totally nonnegative and oscillatory matrices, due to F. R. Gantmacher, M. G. Krein, A. Whitney, C. Loewner, M. Gasca, and J. M. Peña to the case of an arbitrary complex semisimple Lie group.     

The spherical Bochner theorem on semisimple Lie groups

Let G be a connected semisimple Lie group with finite center and K a maximal compact subgroup. Denote (i) Harish-Chandra's Schwartz spaces by $\text{C}$^p(G)(0<p?2), (ii) the K-biinvariant elements in $\text{C}$^p(G) by $\text{I}$^p(G), (iii) the positive definite (zonal) spherical functions by $\text{P}$, and (iv) the spherical transform on $\text{C}$^p(G) by ? → $\text{}\text{?}$gj. For T a positive definite distribution on G it is established that (i) T extends uniquely onto $\text{C}$^l(G), (ii) there exists a unique measure μ of polynomial growth on $\text{P}$ such that T[ψ]=∫pψdμ for all ψ?I¹(G) (iii) all measures μ of polynomial growth on $\text{P}$ are obtained in this way, and (iv) T may be extended to a particular $\text{I}$^p(G) space (1 ? p ? 2) if and only if the support of μ lies in a certain easily defined subset of $\text{P}$. These results generalize a well-known theorem of Godement, and the proofs rely heavily on the recent harmonic analysis results of Trombi and Varadarajan.     

Subelliptic estimates on compact semisimple Lie groups

In this paper, we consider a natural subelliptic structure in semisimple, compact and connected Lie groups, and estimate the constant in the so-called subelliptic Friedrichs-Knapp-Stein inequality, which has implications in the regularity theory of p-energy minimizers.
