We show that topological amenability of an action of a countable discrete group on a compact space is equivalent to the existence of an invariant mean for the action. We prove also that this is equivalent to vanishing of bounded cohomology…
In this paper we study groups of positive operators on Banach lattices. If a certain factorization property holds for the elements of such a group, the group has a homomorphic image in the isometric positive operators which has the same…
The paper deals with weighted spaces $L_p^w(G)$ on a locally compact group G. If w is a positive measurable function on G then we define the space $L_p^w(G)$, $p\ge1$, as $L_p^w(G)=\{f:fw\in L_p(G)\}$. We consider weights such that these…
Let G be the Heisenberg group of real lower triangular 3x3 matrices with unit diagonal. A locally free smooth action of G on a manifold M^4 is given by linearly independent vector fields X_1, X_2, X_3 such that X_3 = [X_1,X_2] and [X_1,X_3]…
In this article, we investigate the notion of a Galois object for a locally compact quantum group M. Such an object consists of a von Neumann algebra N equipped with an ergodic integrable coaction of M on N, such that the crossed product is…
The Bousfield-Kan (or unstable Adams) spectral sequence can be constructed for various homology theories such as Brown-Peterson homology theory BP, Johnson-Wilson theory $E(n)$, or Morava $E$-theory $E_n$. For nice spaces the $E_2$-term is…
Let k be a field of positive characteristic p and let G be a finite group. In this paper we study the category TsG of finitely generated commutative k-algebras A on which G acts by algebra automorphisms with surjective trace. If A = k[X],…
Let $N$ be a normal subgroup of a group $G$. An $N$-module $Q$ is $G$-stable provided that $Q$ is equivalent to the twist $Q^g$ of $Q$ by $g$, for every $g\in G$. If the action of $N$ on $Q$ extends to an action of $G$ on $Q$, $Q$ is…
Let (M,g) be a 3-dimensional compact connected real analytic Lorentz manifold and suppose that g is locally homogeneous on a non-empty open set in M (the pseudogroup of local isometries of g has an open orbit). Then we prove that g is…
Here, we classify Lie groups acting isometrically on compact Lorentz manifolds, and in particular we describe the geometric structure of compact homogeneous Lorentz manifolds.
Consider a proper, isometric action by a unimodular locally compact group $G$ on a Riemannian manifold $M$ with boundary, such that $M/G$ is compact. Then an equivariant Dirac-type operator $D$ on $M$ under a suitable boundary condition has…
We give a complete solution to the local classification program of higher rank partially hyperbolic algebraic actions. We show $C^\infty$ local rigidity of abelian ergodic algebraic actions for symmetric space examples, twisted symmetric…
We consider partially hyperbolic abelian algebraic high-rank actions on compact homogeneous spaces obtained from simple indefinite orthogonal and unitary groups. In the first part of the paper, we show local differentiable rigidity for such…
We study algebraic properties of groups of PL or smooth homeomorphisms of unit cubes in any dimension, fixed pointwise on the boundary, and more generally PL or smooth groups acting on manifolds and fixing pointwise a submanifold of…
We describe explicitly the algebras of degree zero operations in connective and periodic p-local complex K-theory. Operations are written uniquely in terms of certain infinite linear combinations of Adams operations, and we give formulas…
We prove that every uniform approximate homomorphism from a discrete amenable group into a symmetric group is uniformly close to a homomorphism into a slightly larger symmetric group. That is, amenable groups are uniformly flexibly stable…
We exhibit invariants of smooth projective algebraic varieties with integer values, whose nonvanishing modulo p prevents the existence of an action without fixed points of certain finite p-groups. The case of base fields of characteristic p…
In this article we prove exactness of the homotopy sequence of overconvergent $p$-adic fundamental groups for a smooth and projective morphism in characteristic $p$. We do so by first proving a corresponding result for rigid analytic…
Let Z denote the simple limit of prime dimension drop algebras that has a unique tracial state. Let A != 0 be a unital C^*-algebra with A = A tensor Z. Then the homotopy groups of the group U(A) of unitaries in A are stable invariants,…
Let G be a finite group. The stable module category of G has been applied extensively in group representation theory. In particular, it has been used to great effect that it is a triangulated category which is compactly generated. Let H be…
