For a discrete group $\Gamma$ satisfying some finiteness conditions we give a Bredon projective resolution of the trivial module in terms of projective covers of the chain complex associated to certain posets of subgroups. We use this to…

We introduce the concept of Rokhlin dimension for actions of residually compact groups on C*-algebras, which extends and unifies previous notions for actions of compact groups, residually finite groups and the reals. We then demonstrate…

We study Cohen-Macaulay actions, a class of torus actions on manifolds, possibly without fixed points, which generalizes and has analogous properties as equivariantly formal actions. Their equivariant cohomology algebras are computable in…

A right-angled Coxeter group is a group with a given set of generators of order two, subject only to the relations that certain pairs of the generators commute. Various papers have shown how homological properties of the Coxeter group are…

The action of the idempotent deformations on finite groups is discussed. This action is described in terms of the homological properties of groups. The orbits of finite simple groups are determined.

We study rigidity phenomenons for infinite dimension diffusion operators of positive curvature using semigroup interpolations. In particular, for such diffusions, an analogous statement of Obata's theorem is established. Moreover, the same…

A new homological dimension is introduced to measure the quality of resolutions of `singular' finite dimensional algebras (of infinite global dimension) by `regular' ones (of finite global dimension). Upper bounds are established in terms…

We prove the existence of a sequence of commutative diagrams generalizing existing results on the cohomology of the Borel-Serre boundary and well-rounded retract to the context of the well-tempered complex. Our main theorem provides a…

In this paper, we establish the growth tightness of the quotient by confined subgroups in groups admitting the statistically convex-cocompact action with contracting elements. The result is sharp in the sense that the actions could not be…

We equate dynamical properties (e.g., positive entropy, existence of a periodic curve) of complex projective surface automorphisms with properties of the pull-back actions of such automorphisms on line bundles. We use the properties of the…

We study actions of finite groups on moduli spaces of stable holomorphic vector bundles and relate the fixed-point sets of those actions to representation varieties of certain orbifold fundamental groups.

First we study the Gorenstein cohomological dimension ${\rm Gcd}_RG$ of groups $G$ over coefficient rings $R$, under changes of groups and rings; a characterization for finiteness of ${\rm Gcd}_RG$ is given. Some results in literature…

We prove a general criterion for a metric space to have conformal dimension one. The conditions are stated in terms of the existence of enough local cut points in the space. We then apply this criterion to the boundaries of hyperbolic…

We compare the notions of essential dimension and stable cohomological dimension of a finite group G, prove that the latter is bounded by the length of any normal series with cyclic quotients for G, and show that, however, this bound is not…

We demonstrate under appropriate finiteness conditions that a coarse embedding induces an inequality of homological Dehn functions. Applications of the main results include a characterization of what finitely presentable groups may admit a…

We study a positive-definite function associated to a measure-preserving equivalence relation on a standard probability space and use it to measure quantitatively the proximity of subequivalence relations. This is combined with a recent…

By the work of Brodzki-Niblo-Nowak-Wright and Monod, topological amenability of a continuous group action can be characterized using uniformly finite homology groups or bounded cohomology groups associated to this action. We show that…

We determine the homological dimension of various isogeny categories of commutative algebraic groups over a field $k$, in terms of the cohomological dimension of $k$ at certain primes. This generalizes results of Serre, Oort and Milne, by…

We show that the (topological) full group of a minimal pseudogroup over the Cantor set satisfies various rigidity phenomena of topological dynamical and combinatorial nature. Our main result applies to its possible homomorphisms into other…

We study the (Ahlfors regular) conformal dimension of the boundary at infinity of Gromov hyperbolic groups which split over elementary subgroups. If such a group is not virtually free, we show that the conformal dimension is equal to the…
