Orbit Structures in Representation Spaces

01.09.2007 – 30.09.2012

Summary

Scientific abstract

A central theme in my research is the interplay between the geometric and topological properties of a vector space on the one hand and the algebraic structure of its symmetries on the other hand. One way to understand the symmetries is by studying families of transformations leaving the given structure invariant. These families of transformations play a fundamental role in many mathematical theories.
