Geometry Lab (Inoguchi)

Research that uses the geometry of Lie groups to understand differential equations that are 'solvable'.

AboutAbout the lab
Moving back and forth between geometry and differential equations.
Prof. Inoguchi studies geometric objects related to Lie groups and differential equations.
Conversely, the professor also investigates differential equations in which geometric structures or backgrounds are hidden, using the geometry of Lie groups and homogeneous spaces.
Differential equations that allow this back-and-forth are infinite-dimensional integrable systems, equipped with a geometry-derived 'mechanism of solvability.'
As a result, a field fusing infinite-dimensional integrable systems with differential geometry has emerged, and in recent years it has come to be called integrable geometry.
Key terms
- Lie group
- A group of symmetries that can be moved continuously, like rotations. It expresses the symmetries of figures and equations
- Homogeneous space
- A space that looks the same from every point. Points can be carried to one another by the action of a Lie group
- Integrable system
- A family of differential equations with a 'mechanism of solvability,' such as solutions whose form can be written down explicitly
