An important ingredient in the completion theorem of equivariant K-theory given by S. Jackowski is that the representation ring R(Gamma) of a compact Lie group satisfies two restriction properties called (N) and (R\_{F}). We give in this…

This paper is devoted to the computation of the space $H_b^2(\Gamma,H;\mathbb{R})$, where $\Gamma$ is a free group of finite rank $n\geq 2$ and $H$ is a subgroup of finite rank. More precisely we prove that $H$ has infinite index in…

$\Gamma$-symmetric spaces are a vast generalization of symmetric spaces. Previous results make it conceivable that their isotropy action is equivariantly formal, and we provide evidence for this in case that $\Gamma =…

We consider a generalization $K_0^{\operatorname{gr}}(R)$ of the standard Grothendieck group $K_0(R)$ of a graded ring $R$ with involution. If $\Gamma$ is an abelian group, we show that $K_0^{\operatorname{gr}}$ completely classifies graded…

Let $(X, \Gamma)$ be a free and minimal topological dynamical system, where $X$ is a separable compact Hausdorff space and $\Gamma$ is a countable infinite discrete amenable group. It is shown that if $(X, \Gamma)$ has the Uniform Rokhlin…

Let $A$ and $B$ be C*-algebras and $\varphi\colon A\to B$ be a $*$-homomorphism. We discuss the properties of the kernel and (co-)image of the induced map $\mathrm{K}_{0}(\varphi)\colon \mathrm{K}_{0}(A) \to \mathrm{K}_{0}(B)$ on the level…

We prove some conditions for higher dimensional algebraic fibering of pro-$p$ group extensions and we establish corollaries about incoherence of pro-$p$ groups. In particular, if $G = K \rtimes \Gamma$ is a pro-$p$ group, $\Gamma$ a…

Topological quivers generalize the notion of directed graphs in which the sets of vertices and edges are locally compact (second countable) Hausdorff spaces. Associated to a topological quiver $Q$ is a $C^*$-correspondence, and in turn, a…

Quantum symmetry of graph $C^{*}$-algebras has been studied, under the consideration of different formulations, in the past few years. It is already known that the compact quantum group $(\underbrace{C(S^{1})*C(S^{1})*\cdots…

Let $G$ be a simple algebraic group of type $G_2$ over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $2$. We give an example of a finite group $\Gamma$ with Sylow $2$-subgroup $\Gamma_2$ and an infinite family of pairwise non-conjugate…

Suppose that A is a separable C*-algebra and that G_* is a (graded) subgroup of K_*(A). Then there is a natural short exact sequence 0 \to G_* \to K_*(A) \to K_*(A)/G_* \to 0. In this note we demonstrate how to geometrically realize this…

Let $\Gamma$ be a discrete group of isometries acting on the complex hyperbolic $n$-space $\mathbb{H}^n_\mathbb{C}$. In this note, we prove that if $\Gamma$ is convex-cocompact, torsion-free, and the critical exponent $\delta(\Gamma)$ is…

We consider the semi-direct products $G=\mathbb Z^2\rtimes GL_2(\mathbb Z), \mathbb Z^2\rtimes SL_2(\mathbb Z)$ and $\mathbb Z^2\rtimes\Gamma(2)$ (where $\Gamma(2)$ is the congruence subgroup of level 2). For each of them, we compute both…

For a group $G,$ let $\Gamma(G)$ denote the graph defined on the elements of $G$ in such a way that two distinct vertices are connected by an edge if and only if they generate $G$. Moreover let $\Gamma^*(G)$ be the subgraph of $\Gamma(G)$…

Quantum symmetry of a graph $C^{*}$-algebra $C^{*}(\Gamma)$ corresponding to a finite graph $\Gamma$ has been explored by several mathematicians within different categories in the past few years. In this article, we establish that there are…

We determine the A(1)-homotopy of the topological cyclic homology of the connective real K-theory spectrum ko. The answer has an associated graded that is a free F_2[v_2^4]-module of rank 52, on explicit generators in stems -1 \le * \le 30.…

Let $\mathcal{G}_{\alpha}(X, G)$ be the $G$-gauge group over a space $X$ corresponding to a map $\alpha \colon X \to BG$. We compute the integral cohomology of $B\mathcal{G}_{1}(S^2, SO(n))$ for $n = 3,4$. We also show that the homology of…

We prove that every finitely generated group $G$ discriminated by a locally quasi-convex torsion-free hyperbolic group $\Gamma$ is effectively coherent: that is, presentations for finitely generated subgroups can be computed from the…

In this paper, we study multiplicative structures on the K-theory of the core $A:=C^*(E)^{U(1)}$ of the C*-algebra $C^*(E)$ of a directed graph $E$. In the first part of the paper, we study embeddings $E\to E\times E$ that induce a…

We unite elements of category theory, K-theory, and geometric group theory, by defining a class of groups called $k$-cube groups, which act freely and transitively on the product of $k$ trees, for arbitrary $k$. The quotient of this action…
