We introduce a new class of locally compact groups, namely the strongly compactly covered groups, which are the Hausdorff topological groups $G$ such that every element of $G$ is contained in a compact open normal subgroup of $G$. For…
We give a characterization of the action of the mapping class group on Thurston's space of measured laminations.
Given a surface of higher genus, we will look at the Weil-Petersson completion of the Teichmuller space of the surface, and will study the isometric action of the mapping class group on it. The main observation is that the geometric…
We consider the actions of (semi)groups on a locally compact group by automorphisms. We show the equivalence of distality and pointwise distality for the actions of a certain class of groups. We also show that a compactly generated locally…
The action of a Weyl group on the associated weight lattice induces an additive action on the symmetric algebra and a multiplicative action on the group algebra of the lattice. We show that the coinvariant space of the multiplicative action…
We introduce a notion of entropy for automorphisms of discrete groups which admit amenable actions on a compact space. This entropy is dual to classical topological entropy in the sense that if G is discrete and abelian then our notion of…
We establish a connection between two well-studied spaces of countable groups: the space of group operations and the space of marked groups. This connection shows that the two spaces are equivalent in terms of generic properties in the…
The automorphism group $Aut(X,\mu)$ of a compact, complete metric space $X$ with a Radon measure $\mu$ is a subgroup of $\mathcal{U}(L^2(X,\mu))$-the unitary group of operators on $L^2(X,\mu)$. The $Aut(X,\mu)$-action on the generalized…
Loday's assembly maps approximate the K-theory of group rings by the K-theory of the coefficient ring and the corresponding homology of the group. We present a generalization that places both ingredients on the same footing. Building on…
On the one hand the algebras of linear operators here act on finite-dimensional vector spaces, and on the other hand the point of view is generally an analysts'. Also, one might think of algebras as being used to add more data to basic…
Taking a Feynman categorical perspective, several key aspects of the geometry of surfaces are deduced from combinatorial constructions with graphs. This provides a direct route from combinatorics of graphs to string topology operations via…
There is a forgetful map from the mapping class group of a punctured surface to that of the surface with one fewer puncture. We prove that finitely generated purely pseudo-Anosov subgroups of the kernel of this map are convex cocompact in…
In this paper, we define the notion of crossed modules of groups with action and investigate related structures. Functions for computing of these structures have been written using the GAP computational discrete algebra programming…
Some basic notions and results in Topological Dynamics are extended to continuous groupoid actions in topological spaces. We focus mainly on recurrence properties. Besides results that are analogous to the classical case of group actions,…
In this paper, we introduce a new entropy-like invariant, named Hausdorff metric entropy, for finitely generated semigroups acting on compact metric spaces from a set-valued view and study its properties. We establish the relation between…
We study and relate certain actions and extensions involving 2-groups.
In this paper, we prove an exponential and Ganssian concentration inequality for 1-Lipschitz maps from mm-spaces to Hadamard manifolds. In particular, we give a complete answer to a question by M. Gromov.
We examine sufficient conditions for the dual of a topological group to be metrizable and locally compact.
This article continues the study of diagrams in the bicategory of \'etale groupoid correspondences. We prove that any such diagram has a groupoid model and that the groupoid model is a locally compact \'etale groupoid if the diagram is…
For Classical compact Lie groups, we use Macdonald's formula \cite{Ma} and Ricci curvature for analyzing a "concentration locus", which is a tool to detect where a sequence of metric, Borel measurable spaces concentrates its measure.
