Lineability is a property enjoyed by some subsets within a vector space X. A subset A of X is called lineable whenever A contains, except for zero, an infinite dimensional vector subspace. If, additionally, X is endowed with richer…
Given a locally compact quantum group $\mathbb{G}$ and a closed quantum subgroup $\mathbb{H}$, we show that $\mathbb{G}$ is amenable if and only if $\mathbb{H}$ is amenable and $\mathbb{G}$ acts amenably on the quantum homogenous space…
Through careful analysis of types inspired by [AGTW21] we characterize a notion of definable compactness for definable topologies in general o-minimal structures, generalizing results from [PP07] about closed and bounded definable sets in…
Sofic groups generalise both residually finite and amenable groups, and the concept is central to many important results and conjectures in measured group theory. We introduce a topological notion of a sofic boundary attached to a given…
We introduce the space of relative orders on a group and show that it is compact whenever the group is finitely generated. We use this to show that if $G$ is a finitely generated group acting by order preserving homeomorphism of on the…
A new flavour of amenability for discrete semigroups is proposed that generalises group amenability and follows from a \Folner-type condition. Some examples are explored, to argue that this new notion better captures some essential ideas of…
We introduce the concept of a class of graphs, or more generally, relational structures, being locally tree-decomposable. There are numerous examples of locally tree-decomposable classes, among them the class of planar graphs and all…
We introduce a notion of topological property (T) for \'etale groupoids. This simultaneously generalizes Kazhdan's property (T) for groups and geometric property (T) for coarse spaces. One main goal is to use this property (T) to prove the…
In this paper, we consider the probability that a randomly chosen automorphism of a finite group fixes a randomly chosen element of a subgroup of that group. We obtain several new results as well as generalizations and improvements of some…
This paper aims to examine the version of the topological group structure in proximity and especially descriptive proximity spaces, that is, the concepts of proximal group and descriptive proximal group are introduced. In addition, the…
A group is small if it has countably many complete $n$-types over the empty set for each natural number n. More generally, a group $G$ is weakly small if it has countably many complete 1-types over every finite subset of G. We show here…
We show that the automorphism groups of countably categorical linear orders are extremely amenable. Using methods of Kechris, Pestov, and Todorcevic, we use this fact to derive a structural Ramsey theorem for certain families of finite…
In this paper we study analogues of amenability for topological groups in the context of definable structures. We prove fixed point theorems for such groups. More importantly, we propose definitions for definable actions and continuous…
In this short note we introduce a notion called "quantum injectivity" of locally compact quantum groups, and prove that it is equivalent to amenability of the dual. Particularly, this provides a new characterization of amenability of…
Uniformly finite homology is a coarse invariant for metric spaces; in particular, it is a quasi-isometry invariant for finitely generated groups. In this article, we study uniformly finite homology of finitely generated amenable groups and…
It is known that a group G definable in the field of p-adic numbers is definably locally isomorphic to the group of Q_p-points of a connected algebraic group H defined over Q_p. We show that if H is commutative then G is…
Let $\Gamma$ be a countable group acting on a countable set $X$ by permutations. We give a necessary and sufficient condition for the action to have a quasi-invariant mean with a given cocycle. This can be viewed as a combinatorial analogue…
For any countable group $\Gamma$ satisfying the ``weak Rohlin property'', and for any dynamical property, the set of $\Gamma$-actions with that property is either residual or meager. The class of groups with the weak Rohlin property…
In the current paper we attempt to transfer the notion of the projectional entropy, originally defined for multidimensional subshifts, to the case of actions of amenable groups. The main theorem states that if a system is strongly…
We investigate some situation in which automorphisms of a group G are uniquely determined by their restrictions to a proper subgroup H. Much of the paper is devoted to studying under which additional hypotheses this property forces G to be…
