We prove that the class of crossed product C*-algebras associated with the action of the multiplicative group of a number field on its ring of finite adeles is rigid in the following explicit sense: Given any *-isomorphism between two such…
Let T -> S be a finite flat morphism of degree two between regular integral schemes of dimension at most two (and with 2 invertible), having regular branch divisor D. We establish a bijection between Azumaya quaternion algebras on T and…
We introduce Nevanlinna classes of holomorphic functions associated to a closed set on the boundary of the unit disc in the complex plane and we get Blaschke type theorems relative to these classes by use of several complex variables…
In this expository paper we give an elementary, hands-on computation of the homology of the little disks operad, showing that the homology of a $d-fold loop space is a Poisson algebra. One aim is to familiarize a greater audience with…
Let R=K[M] be a normal affine monoid algbera over a field K.Up to isomorphism the conic ideals are exactly the direct summands ofthe extension R^{1/n} of R. We show that the classes of the conic divisorial ideals can be identified with the…
We set up a homological algebra for N-complexes, which are graded modules together with a degree -1 endomorphism d satisfying d^N=0. We define Tor- and Ext-groups for N-complexes and we compute them in terms of their classical counterparts…
Given an $n$-gon, the poset of all collections of pairwise non-crossing diagonals is isomorphic to the face poset of some convex polytope called \textit{associahedron}. We replace in this setting the $n$-gon (viewed as a disc with $n$…
Inspired by Morse theory, we introduce a topological stack Broken, which we refer to as the moduli stack of broken lines. We show that Broken can be presented as a Lie groupoid with corners and provide a combinatorial description of sheaves…
Let $(\varphi_t)$, $(\phi_t)$ be two one-parameter semigroups of holomorphic self-maps of the unit disc $\mathbb D\subset \mathbb C$. Let $f:\mathbb D \to \mathbb D$ be a homeomorphism. We prove that, if $f \circ \phi_t=\varphi_t \circ f$…
We present a natural family of Hilbert function spaces on the d-dimensional complex unit ball and classify which of them satisfy that subsets of the ball yield isometrically isomorphic subspaces if and only if there is an analytic…
We show that pseudovarieties of finitely generated algebras, i.e., classes $C$ of finitely generated algebras closed under finite products, homomorphic images, and subalgebras, can be described via a uniform structure $U$ on the free…
The set of Clifford bundles of bounded geometry over open manifolds can be endowed with a metrizable uniform structure. For one fixed bundle $E$ we define the generalized component $\gencomp (E)$ as the set of Clifford bundles $E'$ which…
The well-known Lawvere category R of extended real positive numbers comes with a monoidal closed structure where the tensor product is the sum. But R has another such structure, given by multiplication, which is *-autonomous. Normed sets,…
We study the elementary C*-algebra whose elements are the sum of a diagonal plus a compact operator. We describe the structure of the unitary group, the sets of ideals, automorhisms and projections.
Let $\ell$ be a length function on a group $G$, and let $M_{\ell}$ denote the operator of pointwise multiplication by $\ell$ on $\bell^2(G)$. Following Connes, $M_{\ell}$ can be used as a ``Dirac'' operator for $C_r^*(G)$. It defines a…
We prove thst the deformation complex of a d-algebra (shifted by 1-d) carries a natural structure of (d+1)-algebra. This is a purely algebraic version of a similkar theorem of Kontsevich.
Under very general conditions it is shown that if $A$ is a uniform algebra generated by real-analytic functions, then either $A$ consists of all continuous functions or else there exists a disc on which every function in $A$ is holomorphic.…
The Drinfeld upper half-planes play the role of symmetric spaces in the $p$-adic analytic world. We find the automorphism group of a product of such spaces, where each may be defined over a different field. We deduce a rigidity theorem for…
The notion of extension of a given $C^*$-category $C$ by a $C^*$-algebra $A$ is introduced. In the commutative case $A = C(\Omega)$, the objects of the extension category are interpreted as fiber bundles over $\Omega$ of objects belonging…
The notion of a subtractive category, recently introduced by the author, is a ``categorical version'' of the notion of a (pointed) subtractive variety of universal algebras, due to A. Ursini. We show that a subtractive variety $\C$, whose…
