We present a simple proof of a result of Green and Griffiths, which states that for the generic curve C of genus g >= 4, the 0-cycle K \times K - (2g - 2) K_\Delta is non-torsion in CH^2(C \times C). The proof is elementary and works in all…

In this note we analyze the C*-algebra associated with a branched covering both as a groupoid C*-algebra and as a Cuntz-Pimsner algebra. We determine conditions when the algebra is simple and purely infinite. We indicate how to compute the…

We show that an arithmetic lattice $\Gamma$ in a semi-simple Lie group $G$ contains a torsion-free subgroup of index $\delta(v)$ where $v = \mu (G/\Gamma)$ is the co-volume of the lattice. We prove that $\delta$ is polynomial in general and…

In this article we give an analogue of Hecke and Sturm bounds for Hilbert modular forms over real quadratic fields. Let $K$ be a real quadratic field and $\Om_K$ its ring of integers. Let $\Gamma$ be a congruence subgroup of $\SL_2(\Om_K)$…

Let $G$ be a compact connected Lie group and $K$ a closed connected subgroup. Assume that the order of any torsion element in the integral cohomology of $G$ and $K$ is invertible in a given principal ideal domain $k$. It is known that in…

Let $\Gamma$ be a discrete group of finite virtual cohomological dimension with certain finiteness conditions of the type satisfied by arithmetic groups. We define a representation ring for $\Gamma$, determined on its elements of finite…

Let $B$ be a separable $C^*$-algebra, let $\Gamma$ be a discrete countable group, let $\alpha: \Gamma \to \text{Aut}(B)$ be an action, and let $A$ be an invariant subalgebra. We find certain freeness conditions which guarantee that any…

In the companion paper~\cite{Gokavarapu_IJPA_2025}, we developed a classical algebraic K-theory for non-commutative $n$-ary $\Gamma$-semirings $(T,\Gamma)$ in terms of finitely generated projective $n$-ary $\Gamma$-modules and their…

We prove an analogue of the Baum-Connes conjecture for free orthogonal quantum groups. More precisely, we show that these quantum groups have a $ \gamma $-element and that $ \gamma = 1 $. It follows that free orthogonal quantum groups are $…

Let $k$ be a noetherian commutative ring and let $G$ be a finite flat group scheme over $k$. Let $G$ act rationally on a finitely generated commutative $k$-algebra $A$. We show that the cohomology algebra $H^*(G,A)$ is a finitely generated…

We investigate how the fixed point algebra of a C*-dynamical system can differ from the underlying C*-algebra. For any exact group $\Gamma$ and any infinite group $\Lambda$, we construct an outer action of $\Lambda$ on the Cuntz algebra…

We investigate the relations between the Grothendieck group of coherent modules of an algebraic variety and its Chow group of algebraic cycles modulo rational equivalence. Those are in essence torsion phenomena, which we attempt to control…

For any reduced free product $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebra $(A, \varphi) =(A_1, \varphi_1) \star (A_2, \varphi_2)$, we prove a boundary rigidity result for the embedding of $A$ into its associated $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebra $\Delta \mathbf{T}(A,…

We classify torsion actions of free wreath products of arbitrary compact quantum groups and use this to prove that if $\mathbb{G}$ is a torsion-free compact quantum group satisfying the strong Baum-Connes property, then…

We establish combinatorial characterizations of virtually torsion-free and virtually free groups using the canonical graph decomposition theory in \cite{DJKK22}. Our main results show that a finitely presented, residually finite group…

Using algebraic and topological K-theory together with complex C^*-algebras, we prove that every abelian group may be realized as the centre of a strongly torsion generated group whose integral homology is zero in dimension one and…

We compute the groupoid homology for the ample groupoids associated with algebraic actions from rings of algebraic integers and integral dynamics. We derive results for the homology of the topological full groups associated with rings of…

Let $K$ be a function field in positive characteristic, $\infty$ be a fixed place of $K$ and $K_\infty$ be the completion of $K$ at $\infty$. By the work of Serre, it is well known that, for a suitable arithmetic subgroup $\Gamma \subset…

Motivated by the search for new examples of ``noncommutative manifolds'', we study the noncommutative geometry (in the sense of Connes) of the group C*-algebras of various discrete groups. The examples we consider are the infinite dihedral…

Let $\Gamma$ be a connected, triangle-free, planar graph with at least five vertices that has no separating vertices or edges. If the graph $\Gamma$ is $\mathcal{CFS}$, we prove that the right-angled Coxeter group $G_\Gamma$ is virtually a…
