Given a 2-category $\twocat{K}$ admitting a calculus of bimodules, and a 2-monad T on it compatible with such calculus, we construct a 2-category $\twocat{L}$ with a 2-monad S on it such that: (1)S has the adjoint-pseudo-algebra property.…

We explore semi-pre-C*-algebras in the context of rigid semisimple C*-tensor categories and using techniques from annular representations, we extend Ozawa's criterion for property (T) in groups to this context

We explain, following Gromov, how to produce uniform isometric actions of groups starting from isometric actions without fixed point, using common ultralimits techniques. This gives in particular a simple proof of a result by Shalom:…

We show that every involutive Hopf monoid in a complete and finitely cocomplete symmetric monoidal category gives rise to invariants of oriented surfaces defined in terms of ribbon graphs. For every ribbon graph this yields an object in the…

We give a complete characterization of connected Lie groups with the Approximation Property for groups (AP). To this end, we introduce a strengthening of property (T), that we call property (T*), which is a natural obstruction to the AP. In…

We introduce a general notion of covering property, of which many classical definitions are particular instances. Notions of closure under various sorts of convergence, or, more generally, under taking kinds of accumulation points, are…

We introduce a new covering property, defined in terms of order types of sequences of open sets, rather than in terms of cardinalities of families. The most general form of this compactness notion depends on two ordinal parameters. In the…

Notions of higher Kazhdan property can be defined in terms of vanishing of unitary group cohomology in higher degrees. Garland's theorem for simple groups over non-archimedean fields provides the first examples of a higher Kazhdan property.…

As a strengthening of Kazhdan's property (T) for locally compact groups, property (TT) was introduced by Burger and Monod. In this paper, we add more rigidity and introduce property (TTT). This property is suited for the study of rigidity…

Let $M$ be a smooth manifold and $K\subset M$ be a simplicial complex of codimension at least 3. Functor calculus methods lead to a homotopical formula of $M\setminus K$ in terms of spaces $M\setminus T$ where $T$ is a finite subset of $K$.…

In this paper we study the Buchstaber invariant of simplicial complexes, which comes from toric topology. With each simplicial complex $K$ on $m$ vertices we can associate a moment-angle complex $\mathcal Z_K$ with a canonical action of the…

Geometry of buildings is used to prove some homological properties of the category of smooth representations of a reductive p-adic group (Kazhdan's "pairing conjecture", Bernstein's description of homological duality in terms of…

The realization theorem asserts that for a finitely presented group G, the D(2) property and the realization property are equivalent as long as G satisfies a certain finiteness condition. We show that the two properties are in fact…

This paper brings the main definitions and results from "The Ramanujan Property for Simplicial Complexes" [arXiv:1605.02664]. No proofs are given. Given a simplicial complex $\mathcal{X}$ and a group $G$ acting on $\mathcal{X}$, we define…

In this series of papers, we study correspondence between the following: (1) large scale structure of the metric space bigsqcup_m {Cay(G(m))} consisting of Cayley graphs of finite groups with k generators; (2) structure of groups which…

We present two approaches, one homological and the other simplicial, for the investigation of dimension quotients of groups. The theory is illustrated, in particular, with a conceptual discussion of the fourth and fifth dimension quotients.

In this article, we consider tensor products of unitary representations by irreducible non-unitary finite dimensional representations of topological groups to define a property that is a twisting of Kazhdan's Property (T). We use the…

Tracial Rokhlin property was introduced by Chris Phillips to study the structure of crossed product of actions on simple C*-algebras. It was originally defined for actions of finite groups and group of integers. Matui and Sato generalized…

A set-theoretic property called Property S is introduced as a generalization of the well-known Property B. Property S is named for A.Schrijver who first used it to formulate an equivalent of the boolean prime ideal theorem. It was…

We introduce a new criterion which tests if a given decomposition of a given ternary form $T$ of even degree is unique. The criterion is based on the analysis of the Hilbert function of the projective set of points $Z$ associated to the…
