Let $K\langle X_d\rangle$ denote the free associative algebra of rank $d \geq 2$ over a field $K$. By results of Lane (1976) and Kharchenko (1978), the algebra of invariants $K\langle X_d\rangle ^G$ is free for any subgroup $G \leq…

A continuous family of non-outer conjugate aperiodic automorphisms whose crossed-products are all isomorphic is given on every interpolated free group factor. An explicit "duality" relationship between compact co-commutative Kac algebra…

The purpose of the present paper is to prove for finitely generated groups of type I the following conjecture of A.Fel'shtyn and R.Hill, which is a generalization of the classical Burnside theorem. Let G be a countable discrete group, f one…

Using elementary graded automorphisms of polytopal algebras (essentially the coordinate rings of projective toric varieties) polyhedral versions of the group of elementary matrices and the Steinberg and Milnor groups are defined. They…

Suppose that a finite group $G$ admits a Frobenius group of automorphisms FH of coprime order with cyclic kernel F and complement H such that the fixed point subgroup $C_G(H)$ of the complement is nilpotent of class $c$. It is proved that…

Given a variety of universal algebras. A method is suggested for describing automorphisms of a category of free algebras of this variety. Applying this general method all automorphisms of such categories are found in two cases: 1) for the…

Let U be the group of units of an infinite twisted group algebra K_\lambda G over a field K. We describe the maximal FC-subgroup of U and give a characterization of U with finitely conjugacy classes. In the case of group algebras we obtain…

Given a simple undirected graph, one can construct from it a $c$-step nilpotent Lie algebra for every $c \geq 2$ and over any field $K$, in particular also over the real and complex numbers. These Lie algebras form an important class of…

Let $\mathcal K$ be a complete quasivariety of completely regular universal topological algebras of continuous signature $\mathcal E$ (which means that $\mathcal K$ is closed under taking subalgebras, Cartesian products, and includes all…

Given a morphism $\varphi : G \to A \wr B$ from a finitely presented group $G$ to a wreath product $A \wr B$, we show that, if the image of $\varphi$ is a sufficiently large subgroup, then $\mathrm{ker}(\varphi)$ contains a non-abelian free…

We compute the equivariant $K$-homology of the classifying space for proper actions, for compact 3-dimensional hyperbolic reflection groups. This coincides with the topological $K$-theory of the reduced $C^\ast$-algebra associated to the…

We study K-theory classes of Hamiltonian loop group spaces represented by admissible Fredholm complexes. We prove various equivariant index formulae in this context. In a sequel to this article we show that, when specialized to a family of…

We first construct an action of the extended double affine braid group $\mathcal{\ddot{B}}$ on the quantum toroidal algebra $U_{q}(\mathfrak{g}_{\mathrm{tor}})$ in untwisted and twisted types. As a crucial step in the proof, we obtain a…

We use $K$-theory to prove an isomorphism theorem for a large class of generalised Bunce-Deddens algebras constructed by Kribs and Solel from a directed graph $E$ and a sequence $\omega$ of positive integers. In particular, we compute the…

We describe the algebraic K-theory of the $K(1)$-local sphere and the category of type 2 finite spectra in terms of K-theory of discrete rings and topological cyclic homology. We find an infinite family of 2-torsion classes in the $K_0$ of…

The paper studies the $K$-theoretic invariants of the crossed product $C^{*}$-algebras associated with an important family of homeomorphisms of the tori $\Bbb{T}^{n}$ called {\em Furstenberg transformations}. Using the Pimsner-Voiculescu…

We construct a combinatorially defined involution on the algebraic $K$-theory of the ring spectrum associated to a bimonoidal category with anti-involution. Particular examples of such are braided bimonoidal categories. We investigate…

We exhibit an extension of the category of class two nilpotent groups. It has the same objects but, unlike the latter, its morphisms are closed under pointwise addition of maps. At the same time the class of its morphisms is much smaller…

We introduce a hierarchy for unital Kirchberg algebras with finitely generated K-groups by which the first and second homotopy groups of the automorphism groups serve as a complete invariant of classification. We also introduce an invariant…

It is shown that the problem of reduction can be formulated in a uniform way using the theory of invariants. This provides a powerful tool of analysis and it opens the road to new applications of these algebras, beyond the context of…
