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…
We study exactness of groups and establish a characterization of exact groups in terms of the existence of a continuous linear operator, called an invariant expectation, whose properties make it a weak counterpart of an invariant mean on a…
We introduce an extended setting to study Hecke pairs $(G,H)$ which admit a regular representation on $L^2(H\backslash G)$, and consequently a $C^*$-algebra. As the result, many pairs of locally compact groups which had been studied in…
By a theorem of D. Wigner, an irreducible unitary representation with non-zero $(\frak{g},K)$-cohomology has trivial infinitesimal character, and hence up to unitary equivalence, these are finite in number. We have determined the number of…
We explore a relationship between the classical representation theory of a complex, semisimple Lie algebra \g and the resonance varieties R(V,K)\subset V^* attached to irreducible \g-modules V and submodules K\subset V\wedge V. In the…
We introduce infinite dimensional Hilbertian H-type groups equipped with weak, graded, left invariant Riemannian metrics. For these Lie groups, we show that the vanishing of the geodesic distance and the local unboundedness of the sectional…
The unitary representation theory of locally compact contraction groups and their semi-direct products with $\mathbb{Z}$ is studied. We put forward the problem of completely characterising such groups which are type I or CCR and this…
We prove a vanishing theorem for the p-adic cohomology of exponential sums on affine space. In particular, we obtain new classes of exponential sums on affine space that have a single nonvanishing p-adic cohomology group. The dimension of…
We study homogeneous metric spaces, by which we mean connected, locally compact metric spaces whose isometry group acts transitively. After a review of some classical results, we use the Gleason-Iwasawa-Montgomery-Yamabe-Zippin structure…
In this third paper in a series on type I Howe duality for finite fields, we give a complete description of the restriction of the oscillator representation over a finite field to products of dual pairs of symplectic and orthogonal groups…
We define the decomposition property for partial actions of discrete groups on $C^*$-algebras. Decomposable partial systems appear naturally in practice, and many commonly occurring partial actions can be decomposed into partial actions…
The semidirect product $\mathbb{G}=\mathbb{L}\rtimes \mathbb{K}$ attached to a compact-group action on a connected, simply-connected solvable Lie group has a dense set of compact elements precisely when the $s\in \mathbb{K}$ operating on…
We provide a general expression of the Haar measure $-$ that is, the essentially unique translation-invariant measure $-$ on a $p$-adic Lie group. We then argue that this measure can be regarded as the measure naturally induced by the…
We consider the following class of unitary representations $\pi $ of some (real) Lie group $G$ which has a matched pair of symmetries described as follows: (i) Suppose $G$ has a period-2 automorphism $\tau $, and that the Hilbert space…
In this article we study asymptotic properties of certain discrete groups $\Gamma$ acting by isometries on a product $\XX=\XX_1\times \XX_2$ of locally compact Hadamard spaces. The motivation comes from the fact that Kac-Moody groups over…
We study equicontinuous actions of semisimple groups and some generalizations. We prove that any such action is universally closed, and in particular proper. We derive various applications, both old and new, including closedness of…
We develop the $p$-adic representation theory of $p$-adic Lie groups on solid vector spaces over a complete non-archimedean extension of $\mathbb{Q}_p$. More precisely, we define and study categories of solid, solid locally analytic and…
For a prime number p and a number field k, we first study certain etale cohomology groups with coefficients associated to a p-adic Artin representation of its Galois group, where we twist the coefficients using a modified Tate twist with a…
We study a notion of convex cocompactness for discrete subgroups of the projective general linear group acting (not necessarily irreducibly) on real projective space, and give various characterizations. A convex cocompact group in this…
The article considers generic extensions of measure-preserving actions. We prove that the P-entropy of the generic extensions with finite P-entropy is infinite. This is exploited to obtain the result by Austin, Glasner, Thouvenot, and Weiss…
