Let G be any locally compact, unimodular, metrizable group. The main result of this paper, roughly stated, is that if F<G is any finitely generated free group and \Gamma < G any lattice, then up to a small perturbation and passing to a…

We introduce the notion of decomposable locally conformally product (LCP) manifolds and characterize those which are defined on quotients of Riemannian Lie groups by co-compact lattices.

We investigate the complexity of the lattice of local clones over a countably infinite base set. In particular, we prove that this lattice contains all algebraic lattices with at most countably many compact elements as complete sublattices,…

We initiate an investigation of lattices in a new class of locally compact groups, so called locally pro-$p$-complete Kac-Moody groups. We discover that in rank 2 their cocompact lattices are particularly well-behaved: under mild…

We further investigate the weak topology generated by the irreducible unitary representations of a group $G$. A deep result due to Ernest \cite{Ernest1971} and Hughes \cite{Hughes1973} asserts that every weakly compact subset of a locally…

This (quasi-)survey addresses the quasi-isometry classification of locally compact groups, with an emphasis on amenable hyperbolic locally compact groups. This encompasses the problem of quasi-isometry classification of homogeneous…

In 'The essentially chief series of a compactly generated locally compact group', an analogue of chief series for finite groups is discovered for compactly generated locally compact groups. In the present article, we show that chief factors…

We investigate the class of locally compact lacunary hyperbolic groups. We prove that if a locally compact compactly generated group G admits one asymptotic cone that is a real tree and whose natural transitive isometric action is focal,…

In [A. Stolz and A. Thom, On the lattice of normal subgroups in ultraproducts of compact simple groups, PLMS 108(1), 2014] it was stated that the lattice of normal subgroups of an ultraproduct of finite simple groups is always linearly…

The paper studies the lattice of subgroups of an isotropic reductive group G(R) over a commutative ring R, normalized by the elementary subgroup E(R). We prove the sandwich classification theorem for this lattice under the assumptions that…

The left multiplicative continuous compactification of a semitopological semigroup is the universal semigroup compactification. In this paper an internal construction of a semigroup compactification of a semitopological semigroup is…

We continue in this paper the study of locally minimal groups started in \cite{LocMin}. The minimality criterion for dense subgroups of compact groups is extended to local minimality. Using this criterion we characterize the compact abelian…

Let $\Gamma$ be a finite simplicial graph with at least two vertices, and let $G(\Gamma)$ be the associated right-angled Artin group. We describe a locally compact group $\mathcal U$ containing $G(\Gamma)$ as a cocompact lattice. If…

The class of locally compact near abelian groups is introduced and investigated as a class of metabelian groups formalizing and applying the concept of scalar multiplication. The structure of locally compact near abelian groups and its…

We discuss symplectic manifolds where, locally, the structure is that encountered in Lagrangian dynamics. Exemples and characteristic properties are given. Then, we refer to the computation of the Maslov classes of a Lagrangian submanifold.…

It is shown that, given a lattice H in a totally disconnected, locally compact group G, the contraction subgroups in G and the values of the scale function on G are determined by their restrictions to H. Group theoretic properties intrinsic…

We study ergodic invariant random subgroups that give full measure to the subset of compact subgroups. We show that in real Lie groups, compactly generated $p$-adic Lie groups, locally compact hyperbolic groups and infinitely ended groups…

We announce results about the structure and arithmeticity of all possible lattice embeddings of a class of countable groups which encompasses all linear groups with simple Zariski closure, all groups with non-vanishing first l2-Betti…

We discuss convergence in the Fourier algebra A(G) of a locally compact group G and provide a new characterisation of the local spectral sets of G.

In this paper, we explain a simple and uniform construction of a smooth integral model associated to a quadratic, (anti)-hermitian, and (anti)-quaternionic hermitian lattice defined over an arbitrary local field. As one major application,…
