A locally compact contraction group is a pair (G,f) where G is a locally compact group and f an automorphism of G which is contractive in the sense that the forward orbit under f of each g in G converges to the neutral element e, as n tends…

For a locally compact group $H$ with a left Haar measure, we study variable Lebesgue algebra $\mathcal{L}^{p(\cdot)}(H)$ with respect to a convolution. We show that if $\mathcal{L}^{p(\cdot)}(H)$ has bounded exponent, then it contains a…

We consider a three dimensional, generalized version of the original SPP model for collective motion. By extending the factors influencing the ordering, we investigate the case when the movement of the self-propelled particles (SPP-s)…

The classical Gaussian functor associates to every orthogonal representation of a locally compact group $G$ a probability measure preserving action of $G$ called a Gaussian action. In this paper, we generalize this construction by…

For a finite group $H$ and connected topological spaces $X$ and $Y$ such that $X$ is endowed with a free left $H$-action $\tau$, we provide a geometric condition in terms of the existence of a commutative diagram of spaces (arising from the…

We consider stationary configurations of points in Euclidean space which are marked by positive random variables called scores. The scores are allowed to depend on the relative positions of other points and outside sources of randomness.…

Given a locally compact Polish space X, a necessary and sufficient condition for a group G of homeomorphisms of X to be the full isometry group of (X,d) for some proper metric d on X is given. It is shown that every locally compact Polish…

An invariant random subgroup $H \leq G$ is a random closed subgroup whose law is invariant to conjugation by all elements of $G$. When $G$ is locally compact and second countable, we show that for every invariant random subgroup $H \leq G$…

This paper proves various results concerning non-ergodic actions of locally compact groups and particularly Borel cocycles defined over such actions. The general philosophy is to reduce the study of the cocycle to the study of its…

For a discrete metric space (or more generally a large scale space) $X$ and an action of a group $G$ on $X$ by coarse equivalences, we define a type of coarse quotient space $X_G$, which agrees up to coarse equivalence with the orbit space…

A weakly continuous near-action of a Polish group $G$ on a standard Lebesgue measure space $(X,\mu)$ is whirly if for every $A\subseteq X$ of strictly positive measure and every neighbourhood $V$ of identity in $G$ the set $VA$ has full…

We study the set S of ergodic probability Borel measures on stationary non-simple Bratteli diagrams which are invariant with respect to the tail equivalence relation. Equivalently, the set S is formed by ergodic probability measures…

We consider random walks on locally compact groups, extending the geometric criteria for the identification of their Poisson boundary previously known for discrete groups. First, we prove a version of the Shannon-McMillan-Breiman theorem,…

We prove that, if $G$ is a second-countable topological group with a compatible right-invariant metric $d$ and $(\mu_{n})_{n \in \mathbb{N}}$ is a sequence of compactly supported Borel probability measures on $G$ converging to invariance…

The stereotype approximation property is formally a stronger condition than the classical approximation property, and because of that the question which spaces possess the stereotype approximation property is quite difficult. In this paper…

We consider operators $H_\mu$ of convolution with measures $\mu$ on locally compact groups. We characterize the spectrum of $H_\mu$ by constructing auxiliary operators whose kernel contain the pure point and singular subspaces of $H_\mu$,…

We show that every non-amenable free product of groups admits free ergodic probability measure preserving actions which have relative property (T) in the sense of S.-Popa \cite[Def. 4.1]{Pop06}. There are uncountably many such actions up to…

For a locally compact group $G$ we consider the algebra $CD(G)$ of convolution dominated operators on $L^{2}(G)$: An operator $A:L^2(G)\to L^2(G)$ is called convolution dominated if there exists $a\in L^1(G)$ such that for all $f \in…

Let $G$ be a Lie group acting properly on a smooth manifold $M$. If $M/G$ is connected, then we exhibit some simple and basic constructions for proper actions. In particular, we prove that the reduction principle in compact transformation…

We consider group actions of topological groups on C*-algebras of the types which occur in many physics models. These are singular actions in the sense that they need not be strongly continuous, or the group need not be locally compact. We…
