In this partly expository monograph we develop a general framework for producing uncountable families of exotic actions of certain classically studied groups acting on the circle. We show that if $L$ is a nontrivial limit group then the…

Let $G$ be the group $SL(2,\mathbb{R})$, $P\subset G$ be the parabolic subgroup of upper triangular matrices and $\Gamma\subset G$ be a cocompact lattice. A right action of $P$ on $\Gamma\backslash G$ defines an orbit foliation…

We present an extension of the mass sum rule that applies to renormalizable rigid supersymmetric field theories to the case of the N=1 supersymmetric effective action (the gauged non-linear sigma model) consisting of adjoint scalar…

This note establishes a new weak mean ergodic theorem for 1-cocycles associated to weakly mixing representations of amenable groups.

Let $G_\Gamma\curvearrowright X$ and $G_\Lambda\curvearrowright Y$ be two free measure-preserving actions of one-ended right-angled Artin groups with trivial center on standard probability spaces. Assume they are irreducible, i.e. every…

Let $k$ be a noetherian commutative ring and let $G$ be a finite flat group scheme over $k$. Let $G$ act rationally on a finitely generated commutative $k$-algebra $A$. We show that the cohomology algebra $H^*(G,A)$ is a finitely generated…

We construct cocycles in $\mathbb{T} \times SU(2)$ over Diophantine rotations that are minimal and not uniquely ergodic. Such cocycles are dense in an open subset of cocycles over the fixed Diophantine rotation. By a standard argument, they…

In this paper we consider a bootstrap class $\mathfrak C$ of countable discrete groups, which is closed under countable unions and extensions by the integers, and we study actions of such groups on C*-algebras. This class includes all…

We investigate analogues of some of the classical results in homogeneous dynamics in non-linear setting. Let $G$ be a closed subgroup of the group of automorphisms of a biregular tree and $\Gamma<G$ a discrete subgroup. For a large class of…

In this expository article, we give a survey of Adrian Ioana's cocycle superrigidity theorem for profinite actions of Property (T) groups, and its applications to ergodic theory and set theory. In addition to a statement and proof of…

We define a bounded cohomology class, called the {\em median class}, in the second bounded cohomology -- with appropriate coefficients --of the automorphism group of a finite dimensional CAT(0) cube complex X. The median class of X behaves…

We pursue the study of local index theory for operators of Fourier-integral type associated to non-proper and non-isometric actions of Lie groupoids, initiated in a previous work. We introduce the notion of geometric cocycles for Lie…

We reprove the main result of our joint work [arXiv:0706.0604] with Srinivas, concerning finite Schur filtration dimension, but now with the base field replaced by a commutative noetherian ring k. This leads to finiteness results for the…

Finite rank median spaces are a simultaneous generalisation of finite dimensional ${\rm CAT}(0)$ cube complexes and real trees. If $\Gamma$ is an irreducible lattice in a product of rank one simple Lie groups, we show that every action of…

The explicit expression of all the WZW effective actions for a simple group G broken down to a subgroup H is established in a simple and direct way, and the formal similarity of these actions to the Chern-Simons forms is explained.…

In this paper, we establish a connection between Rokhlin dimension and the absorption of certain model actions on strongly self-absorbing C*-algebras. Namely, as to be made precise in the paper, let $G$ be a well-behaved locally compact…

Answering a question by Chatterji--Dru\c{t}u--Haglund, we prove that, for every locally compact group $G$, there exists a critical constant $p_G \in [0,\infty]$ such that $G$ admits a continuous affine isometric action on an $L_p$ space…

An effective action is obtained for the $N=1$, $2D-$induced supergravity on a compact super Riemann surface (without boundary) $\hat\Sigma$ of genus $g>1$, as the general solution of the corresponding superconformal Ward identity. This is…

Let $M$ be a factor with separable predual and $G$ a compact group of automorphisms of $M$ whose action is minimal, i.e. $M^{G^\prime}\cap M = C$, where $M^G$ denotes the $G$-fixed point subalgebra. Then every intemediate von Neumann…

We introduce the $C^*$-algebra $C^*(\kappa)$ generated by the Koopman representation $\kappa$ of an \'etale groupoid $G$ acting on a measure space $(X,\mu)$. We prove that for a level transitive self-similar action $(G,E)$ with $E$ finite…
