Let X be a normal affine T-variety of complexity at most one over a perfect field k, where T stands for the split algebraic torus. Our main result is a classification of additive group actions on X that are normalized by the T-action. This…

Let $G$ be an affine algebraic group with a reductive identity component $G^{0}$ acting regularly on an affine Krull scheme $X = {Spec} (R)$ over an algebraically closed field. Let $T$ be an algebraic subtorus of $G$ and suppose that…

In this paper we consider some global constructions of liftings of automorphic representations attached to some commuting pairs in the exceptional group $F_4$. We consider two families of integrals. The first uses the minimal representation…

We give the first examples of (non-amenable group) amenable actions on stably finite simple C*-algebras. More precisely, we give such actions for any countable group in an explicit way. The main ingredients of our construction are the full…

Let $G$ be a group acting via ring automorphisms on an integral domain $R.$ A ring-theoretic property of $R$ is said to be $G$-invariant, if $R^G$ also has the property, where $R^G=\{r\in R \ | \ \sigma(r)=r \ \text{for all} \ \sigma\in…

We prove that every ergodic amenable action of an algebraic group over a local field of characteristic zero is induced from an ergodic action of an amenable subgroup.

The class A of countable groups that admit a faithful, transitive, amenable -- in the sense that there is an invariant mean -- action on a set has been widely investigated in the past. In this paper, we no longer require the action to be…

Under mild hypotheses, we prove that if F is a totally real field, k is the algebraic closure of the finite field with l elements and r : G_F --> GL_2(k) is irreducible and modular, then there is a finite solvable totally real extension…

Let $D$ be a simple derivation of the polynomial ring $\mathbb{k}[x_1,\dots,x_n]$, where $\mathbb{k}$ is an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, and denote by…

This article shows that for unitary dual reductive pairs the first occurrence of theta lift of an irreducible cuspidal automorphic representation is irreducible. It also proves a refined tower property for theta lifts and the involutive…

Let G be a connected reductive complex algebraic group acting on a smooth complete complex algebraic variety X. We assume that X under the action of G is a regular embedding, a condition satisfied in particular by smooth toric varieties and…

For a locally compact group $G$ and a strongly self-absorbing $G$-algebra $(\mathcal{D},\delta)$, we obtain a new characterization of absorption of a strongly self-absorbing action using almost equivariant completely positive maps into the…

Given a faithful action of a finite group on an algebraic curve of genus at least 2, we prove that the induced action on the space of global holomorphic differentials is faithful as well, except in the following very special case: the given…

Let T be a d-regular tree (d > 2) and A=Aut(T), its automorphism group. Let G be a group generated by n independent Haar-random elements of A. We show that almost surely, every nontrivial element of G has finitely many fixed points on T.

We define a closure operation for ideals in a commutative ring which has all the good properties of solid closure (at least in the case of equal characteristic) but such that also every ideal in a regular ring is closed. This gives in…

Given a smooth hyperplane section $H$ of a rational homogeneous space $G/P$ with Picard number one, we address the question whether it is always possible to lift an automorphism of $H$ to the Lie group $G$, or more precisely to Aut$(G/P)$.…

We use the triality automorphism of simple algebraic groups of type $D_4$ to prove some new instances of global Langlands functorial lifting. In particular, we prove the (weak) spin lifting from ${\rm GSp}_6$ to ${\rm GL}_8$ and the tensor…

If $\mathcal C$ is a class of complexes closed under taking full subcomplexes and covers and $\mathcal G$ is the class of groups admitting proper and cocompact actions on one-connected complexes in $\mathcal C$, then $\mathcal G$ is closed…

Given a torsion-free $p$-adic analytic pro-$p$ group $G$ with $\mathrm{dim}(G) < p$, we show that the self-similar actions of $G$ on regular rooted trees can be studied through the virtual endomorphisms of the associated $\mathbb{Z}_p$-Lie…

Let $G:=G_2(K)$ be a simple algebraic group of type $G_2$ defined over an algebraically closed field $K$ of characteristic $p>0$. Let $\sigma$ denote a standard Frobenius automorphism of $G$ such that $G_\sigma\cong G_2(q)$ with $q\geq 4$.…
