Compact homogeneous spaces of reductive Lie groups and spaces close to them (Q2817568)

The author discusses compact homogeneous spaces of reductive Lie groups, as well as some analogues or generalizations: quasicompact and plesiocompact homogeneous spaces of these Lie groups. The notions of plesio-uniform subgroups, generalizing uniform and quasi-uniform subgroups, and of plesiocompact homogeneous spaces were introduced by the author in [Sib. Math. J. 30, 217--226 (1989; Zbl 0705.22005); ibid. 32, 186--196 (1991; Zbl 0741.57014)].NEWLINENEWLINEMore specifically, in the first section, the author analyzes the structure of (plesio-)uniform subgroups of arbitrary reductive Lie groups. In the second section of the paper, (plesio-)compact homogeneous spaces of reductive Lie groups with low dimension or codimension are investigated. In the third and final section, the author describes, up to weak commensurability, the fundamental groups of (plesio-)compact homogeneous spaces of reductive Lie groups.
