In this thesis we develop the foundations for a theory of analytic geometry over a valued field, uniformly encompassing the case when the base field is equipped with a non-archimedean valuation and the case when it has an archimedean one.…

The aim of this paper is to describe an approach to a a strengthened form of J. Tits' Centre Conjecture for spherical buildings. This is accomplished by generalizing a fundamental result of G. R. Kempf from Geometric Invariant Theory and…

We show that if an open cover of a finite dimensional space is equivariant with respect to some finite group action on the space then there is an equivariant refinement of bounded dimension. This will generalize some constructions of…

We establish a connection between (degenerate) nonsymmetric Macdonald polynomials and standard bases and dual standard bases of maximal parabolic modules of affine Hecke algebras. Along the way we prove a (weak) polynomiality result for…

One important class of tools in the study of the connections between algebraic and topological structures are the "Banach-Stone type theorems", which describe algebraic isomorphisms of algebras (or groups, lattices, etc.) of functions in…

For any subgroup of $\mathrm{SL}(3,\mathbb{R})\ltimes\mathbb{R}^3$ obtained by adding a translation part to a subgroup of $\mathrm{SL}(3,\mathbb{R})$ which is the fundamental group of a finite-volume convex projective surface, we first show…

We prove a general congruence result for bisimilarity in higher-order languages, which generalises previous work to languages specified by a labelled transition system in which programs may occur as labels, and which may rely on operations…

We consider some class of homeomorphisms of domains of Euclidean space, which are more general than quasiconformal mappings. For these homeomorphisms, we have obtained theorems on local behavior of it's inverse mappings in a given domain.…

Vector fields with components which are generalized zero-forms are constructed. Inner products with generalized forms, Lie derivatives and Lie brackets are computed. The results are shown to generalize previously reported results for…

Consider a lattice $\Gamma$ in a group $G = SL_2(\R), SO(1,n), SU(1,n)$, $SL_2(\Q_p)$. We discuss actions of $\Gamma$ by affine isometric transformations of Hilbert spaces. We show that for irreducible affine isometric action of $G$ its…

We introduce and investigate a novel notion of transversely affine foliation, comparing and contrasting it to the previous ones in the literature. We then use it to give an extension of the classic Hadamard's theorem from Riemannian…

We study the circumstances under which one can reconstruct a stack from its associated functor of isomorphism classes. This is possible surprisingly often: we show that many of the standard examples of moduli stacks are determined by their…

Using Singer polygons, we construct locally finite affine buildings of types ~A_2 and ~C_2 which admit uniform lattices acting regularly on panels. This construction produces very explicit descriptions of these buildings as well as very…

We study projective functions. We prove that projective functions generalise lower and upper-semianalytic ones while being stable by composition and difference. We show that the class of projective functions is closed under sums,…

We introduce two novel complementary notions of the Lefschetz number for a functor from a finite acyclic category to itself and we prove a Lefschetz fixed-object theorem and a Lefschetz fixed-morphism theorem. In order to do so, we use the…

This paper gives a generic form of the diamond lemma, which includes support for additive and topological structures of the base set, and which does not require any further structure (e.g. an associative multiplication operation) to be…

We consider a transformation of a normalized measure space such that the image of any point is a finite set. We call such transformation $m$-transformation. In this case the orbit of any point looks like a tree. In the study of…

We introduce a new class of abstract structures, which we call generalized ultrametric semilattices, and in which the meet operation of the semilattice coexists with a generalized distance function in a tightly coordinated way. We prove a…

In this paper the concept of local embeddability into finite structures (being LEF) for the class of semigroups is expanded with investigations of non-LEF structures, a closely related generalising property of local wrapping of finite…

We prove the generalized Obata theorem on foliations. Let M be a complete Riemannian manifold with a foliation F of codimension $q>1$ and a bundle-like metric. Then $(M, F)$ is transversally isometric to the q-sphere of radius 1/c in…
