An irreducible norm closed semigroup of complex matrices is simultaneously similar to a semigroup of partial isometries if and only if (a) the norms of all nonzero members of it are uniformly bounded above and below, and (b) its idempotents…
We investigate whether the group algebra of a finite group over a localisation of the integers is semiperfect. The main result is a necessary and sufficient arithmetic criterion in the ordinary case. In the modular case, we propose a…
Word maps provide a wealth of information about finite groups. We examine the connection between the probability distribution induced by a word map and the underlying structure of a finite group. We show that a finite group is nilpotent if…
We construct countable groups $G$ with the following new degree of W*-superrigidity: if $L(G)$ is virtually isomorphic, in the sense of admitting a bifinite bimodule, with any other group von Neumann algebra $L(\Lambda)$, then the groups…
We prove an almost continuous version of Dye's theorem: any two non-atomic probability measure preserving homeomorphisms of Polish spaces are almost continuously orbit equivalent. More precisely they are orbit equivalent by a map which is…
Suppose we are given two probability measures on the set of one-way infinite finite-alphabet sequences and consider the question when one of the measures predicts the other, that is, when conditional probabilities converge (in a certain…
We study the link between stably finiteness and stably projectionless-ness for $C^*$-algebras of solvable Lie groups. We show that these two properties are equivalent if the dimension of the group is not divisible by $4$; otherwise, they…
Given a finite group $G$, we denote by $\nu(G)$ the probability that two randomly chosen elements of $G$ generate a nilpotent subgroup. We prove that if $\nu(G)>1/12,$ then $G$ is solvable.
Due to \v{C}encov's theorem, there exists a unique family of invariant symmetric $(0,2)$-tensor fields on the space of positive probability measures on a set of $n$-points indexed by $n\in \mathbb{N}$ under Markov embeddings. We deform…
We show that higher order inter-group covariances involving even number of qubits are necessarily positive semidefinite for N qubit separable states, which are completely symmetric under permutations of the qubits. This identification leads…
Spaces of quasi-invariant measures supplied with different topologies are studied. Their embeddings, projective decompositions, conditions for their metrizability are investigated. Theorems about convergence of nets of quasi-invariant…
We give a new criterion for solvability of group equations, providing proofs of various generalizations of the Kervaire-Laudenbach conjecture for Connes-embeddable groups.
In this work we state conditions for a current Lie algebra $\g \otimes \mathcal{S}$ to admit an invariant metric, where $\g$ is a quadratic Lie algebra and $\mathcal{S}$ is an associative and commutative algebra with unit. We also consider…
Hilbert--Lie groups are Lie groups whose Lie algebra is a real Hilbert space whose scalar product is invariant under the adjoint action. These infinite-dimensional Lie groups are the closest relatives to compact Lie groups. Here we study…
This expository paper is intended for a short self-contained introduction to the theory of infinite convolutions of probability measures on Polish semigroups. We give the proofs of the Rees decomposition theorem of completely simple…
We study Lie rings definable in a finite-dimensional theory, extending the results for the finite Morley rank case. In particular, we prove a classification of Lie rings of dimension up to four in the NIP or connected case. In…
We study the phase retrieval property for orbits of general irreducible representations of nilpotent groups, for the classes of simply connected connected Lie groups, and for finite groups. We prove by induction that in the Lie group case,…
We introduce a new approach to modeling uncertainty based on plausibility measures. This approach is easily seen to generalize other approaches to modeling uncertainty, such as probability measures, belief functions, and possibility…
Let $f$ be sampled uniformly at random from the set of degree $n$ polynomials whose coefficients lie in $\{ \pm 1\}$. A folklore conjecture, known to hold under GRH, states that the probability that $f$ is irreducible tends to $1$ as $n$…
We prove that a Lie conformal algebra L with bounded locality function is embeddable into an associative conformal algebra A with the same bound on the locality function. If L is nilpotent, then so is A, and the nilpotency index remains the…
