Continuous wavelet transforms arising from the quasiregular representation of a semidirect product of a vector group with a matrix group -- the so-called dilation group -- have been studied by various authors. Recently the attention has…

Inspired by the classical category theorems of Halmos and Rohlin for the discrete measure preserving transformations, we prove analogous results in the abstract setting of unitary and isometric C_0-semigroups on a separable Hilbert space.…

We show that any bounded analytic semigroup on $L^p$ (with $1<p<\infty$) whose negative generator admits a bounded $H^{\infty}$ functional calculus with respect to some angle $< \pi/2$ can be dilated into a bounded analytic semigroup…

Fix 1<R. The dilation theory for the quantum annulus, consisting of those invertible Hilbert space operators T such that the norm of T and its inverse are both at most R is determined. The proof technique involves a geometric approach to…

An order relation for contractions on a Hilbert space can be introduced by stating that $A\preccurlyeq B$ if and only $A$ is unitarily equivalent to the restriction of $B$ to an invariant subspace. We discuss the equivalence classes…

We find an explicit tetrablock isometric dilation for every member $(A_\alpha, B, P)$ of a family of tetrablock contractions indexed by a parameter $\alpha$ in the closed unit disc (only the first operator of the tetrablock contraction…

We investigate the invariance properties of general wavelet coorbit spaces and Besov-type decomposition spaces under dilations by matrices. We show that these matrices can be characterized by quasi-isometry properties with respect to a…

Differential calculus on metric spaces is contained in the algebraic study of normed groupoids with $\delta$-structures. Algebraic study of normed groups endowed with dilatation structures is contained in the differential calculus on metric…

The class of generalized shearlet dilation groups has recently been developed to allow the unified treatment of various shearlet groups and associated shearlet transforms that had previously been studied on a case-by-case basis. We consider…

Motivated by Ball, Li, Timotin and Trent's Schur-Agler class version of commutant lifting theorem, we introduce a class, denoted by $\mathcal{P}_n(\mathcal{H})$, of $n$-tuples of commuting contractions on a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$. We…

The Temperley-Lieb and Brauer algebras and their cyclotomic analogues, as well as the partition algebra, are all examples of twisted semigroup algebras. We prove a general theorem about the cellularity of twisted semigroup algebras of…

We develop a theory of Valuation Hilbert Modules and prove a version of Beurling's theorem for these. Then we apply our version of Beurling's theorem to obtain complete descriptions of the closed invariant subspaces of a number of Hilbert…

Discrete subgroups of SL(2,R) are well understood, and classified by the geometry of the corresponding hyperbolic surfaces. Discrete subgroups of higher-rank semisimple Lie groups, such as SL(n,R) for n>2, remain more mysterious. While…

In extended hearts of bounded $t$-structures on a triangulated category, we provide a Happel-Reiten-Smalo tilting theorem and a characterization for $s$-torsion pairs. Applying these to $m$-extended module categories, we characterize…

This expository essay discusses a finite dimensional approach to dilation theory. How much of dilation theory can be worked out within the realm of linear algebra? It turns out that some interesting and simple results can be obtained. These…

Using probabilistic tools, we prove that any weak* continuous semigroup $(T_t)_{t \geq 0}$ of selfadjoint unital completely positive measurable Schur multipliers acting on the space $\mathrm{B}(\mathrm{L}^2(X))$ of bounded operators on the…

We prove the Borel Conjecture for a class of groups containing word-hyperbolic groups and groups acting properly, isometrically and cocompactly on a finite dimensional CAT(0)-space.

We characterize group compactifications of discrete groups for which there exists an equivariant retraction onto the boundary. In particular, we prove an equivariant analogue of Brouwer's No-Retraction theorem for large classes of group…

In this paper, two parallel notions of convexity of sets are introduced in the abelian semigroup setting. The connection of these notions to algebraic and to set-theoretic operations is investigated. A formula for the computation of the…

We view the well-known example of the dual of a countable compact hypergroup, motivated by the orbit space of p-adic integers by Dunkl and Ramirez (1975), as hypergroup deformation of the max semigroup structure on the linearly ordered set…
