Short Time Behavior of Hermite Functions on Compact Lie Groups
We study the heat kernel on a compact Lie group. In this work, we will use structure theory of semisimple Lie algebra to find equivalent forms of the heat kernel on a general compact Lie group.

Spectra of some domains in compact Lie groups and their applications
In this paper, we determine explicitly the spectra of the Dirichlet problems of some domains in simply connected compact simple Lie groups. As their applications, combining results of Hoffman [6] and Mori [10], we can state some stability conditions of these domains for the standard minimal isometric immersions into unit spheres.

Elliptic involutive structures on compact Lie groups
Inspired by the work of Chevalley and Eilenberg on the de Rham cohomology on compact Lie groups, we prove that, under certain algebraic and topological conditions, the cohomology associated to left-invariant elliptic, and even hypocomplex, involutive structures on compact Lie groups can be computed by using only Lie algebras, thus reducing the analytical problem to a purely algebraic one. The main tool is the Leray spectral sequence that connects the result obtained Chevalley and Eilenberg to a result by Bott on the Dolbeault cohomology of a homogeneous manifold.
Read moreTHE PROBABILITY THAT AND COMMUTE IN A COMPACT GROUP
In a recent article [K. H. Hofmann and F. G. Russo, ‘The probability that$x$and$y$commute in a compact group’,Math. Proc. Cambridge Phil Soc., to appear] we calculated for a compact group$G$the probability$d(G)$that two randomly selected elements$x, y\in G$satisfy$xy=yx$, and we discussed the remarkable consequences on the structure of$G$which follow from the assumption that$d(G)$is positive. In this note we consider two natural numbers$m$and$n$and the probability$d_{m,n}(G)$that for two randomly selected elements$x, y\in G$the relation$x^my^n=y^nx^m$holds. The situation is more complicated whenever$n,m\gt 1$. If$G$is a compact Lie group and if its identity component$G_0$is abelian, then it follows readily that$d_{m,n}(G)$is positive. We show here that the following condition suffices for the converse to hold in an arbitrary compact group$G$: for any nonopen closed subgroup$H$of$G$, the sets$\{g\in G: g^k\in H\}$for both$k=m$and$k=n$have Haar measure$0$. Indeed, we show that if a compact group$G$satisfies this condition and if$d_{m,n}(G)\gt 0$, then the identity component of$G$is abelian.

In this paper we present symbolic criteria for invariant operators on compact topological groups $G$ characterising the Schatten-von Neumann classes $S_{r}(L^{2}(G))$ for all $0<r\leq\infty$. Since it is known that for pseudo-differential operators criteria in terms of kernels may be less effective (Carleman's example), our criteria are given in terms of the operators' symbols defined on the noncommutative analogue of the phase space $G\times\hat{G}$, where $G$ is a compact topological (or Lie) group and $\hat{G}$ is its unitary dual. We also show results concerning general non-invariant operators as well as Schatten properties on Sobolev spaces. A trace formula is derived for operators in the Schatten class $S_{1}(L^{2}(G))$. Examples are given for Bessel potentials associated to sub-Laplacians (sums of squares) on compact Lie groups, as well as for powers of the sub-Laplacian and for other non-elliptic operators on SU(2)$\simeq\mathbb S^3$ and on SO(3).

In this paper, by virtue of the methods which comes from intersecting and combining differential geometry with wavelet theory, and this method belong to us. We extend the two-direction multiresolution and the two-direction Mallat Algorithm to the theory on the special differential manifold - compact Lie group, our work lay a foundation for the further study wavelet theory on compact Lie group.

Integration on a Compact Connected Lie Group
This chapter explores integration on a compact connected Lie group. One of the great advantages of working with a compact Lie group is the possibility of extending the notion of averaging from a finite group to the compact Lie group. If the compact Lie group is connected, then there exists a unique bi-invariant top-degree form with total integral 1, which simplifies the presentation of averaging. The averaging operator is useful for constructing invariant objects. For example, suppose a compact connected Lie group G acts smoothly on the left on a manifold M. Given any C∞ differential k-form ω on M, by averaging all the left translates of ω over G, one can produce a C∞ invariant k-form on M. As another example, on a G-manifold one can average all translates of a Riemannian metric to produce an invariant Riemann metric.
Read moreGroup dualities, T‐dualities, and twisted K‐theory
This paper explores further the connection between Langlands duality and T-duality for compact simple Lie groups, which appeared in work of Daenzer-Van Erp and Bunke-Nikolaus. We show that Langlands duality gives rise to isomorphisms of twisted K-groups, but that these K-groups are trivial except in the simplest case of SU(2) and SO(3). Along the way we compute explicitly the map on $H^3$ induced by a covering of compact simple Lie groups, which is either 1 or 2 depending in a complicated way on the type of the groups involved. We also give a new method for computing twisted K-theory using the Segal spectral sequence, giving simpler computations of certain twisted K-theory groups of compact Lie groups relevant for D-brane charges in WZW theories and rank-level dualities. Finally we study a duality for orientifolds based on complex Lie groups with an involution.

We classify elementary abelian 2-subgroups of compact simple Lie groups of adjoint type. This finishes the classification of elementary abelian \(p\)-subgroups of compact simple Lie groups (equivalently, complex linear algebraic simple groups) of adjoint type started in Griess (Geom Dedicata 39(3):253–305, 1991).

Read moreCritical Landscape Topology for Optimization on the Symplectic Group
Optimization problems over compact Lie groups have been extensively studied due to their broad applications in linear programming and optimal control. This paper analyzes least square problems over a noncompact Lie group, the symplectic group $\Sp(2N,\R)$, which can be used to assess the optimality of control over dynamical transformations in classical mechanics and quantum optics. The critical topology for minimizing the Frobenius distance from a target symplectic transformation is solved. It is shown that the critical points include a unique local minimum and a number of saddle points. The topology is more complicated than those of previously studied problems on compact Lie groups such as the orthogonal and unitary groups because the incompatibility of the Frobenius norm with the pseudo-Riemannian structure on the symplectic group brings significant nonlinearity to the problem. Nonetheless, the lack of traps guarantees the global convergence of local optimization algorithms.
