Let $X$ be a Banach space. We introduce a formal approach which seems to be useful in the study of those properties of operators on $X$ which depend only on the norms of images of elements. This approach is applied to the Daugavet equation…

Let $G$ be a connected semisimple real algebraic group and $\Gamma<G$ be its Zariski dense discrete subgroup. We prove that if $\Gamma\backslash G$ admits any finite Bowen-Margulis-Sullivan measure, then $\Gamma$ is virtually a product of…

A Banach space is said to be Grothendieck if weak and weak$^*$ convergent sequences in the dual space coincide. This notion has been quantificated by H. Bendov\'{a}. She has proved that $\ell_\infty$ has the quantitative Grothendieck…

Let $V$ be a linear representation of a connected complex reductive group $G$. Given a choice of character $\theta$ of $G$, Geometric Invariant Theory defines a locus $V^{ss}_\theta(G) \subseteq V$ of semistable points. We give necessary,…

We address the problem of classifying complete $\mathbb{C}$-subalgebras of $\mathbb{C}[[t]]$. A discrete invariant for this classification problem is the semigroup of orders of the elements in a given $\mathbb{C}$-subalgebra. Hence we can…

We define the notion of strong spectral invariance for a dense Frechet subalgebra A of a Banach algebra B. We show that if A is strongly spectral invariant in a C*-algebra B, and G is a compactly generated polynomial growth Type R Lie…

The paper gives a short account of some basic properties of \textit{Dirichlet-to-Neumann} operators $\Lambda_{\gamma,\partial\Omega}$ including the corresponding semigroups motivated by the Laplacian transport in anisotropic media ($\gamma…

The study of extremal properties of the spectrum often involves restricting the metrics under consideration. Motivated by the work of Abreu and Freitas in the case of the sphere $S^2$ endowed with $S^1$-invariant metrics, we consider the…

We introduce the space of infinite volume ends of a locally compact second countable (lcsc) space that admits a Radon measure. In certain cases, this coincides with the classical space of ends. Consider a discrete subgroup $\Gamma$ of a…

We mainly discuss the cardinal invariants and generalized metric properties on paratopological groups or rectifiable spaces, and show that: (1) If $A$ and $B$ are $\omega$-narrow subsets of a paratopological group $G$, then $AB$ is…

We generalise a key result of one-relator group theory, namely Magnus's Freiheitssatz, to partially commutative groups, under sufficiently strong conditions on the relator. The main theorem shows that under our conditions, on an element $r$…

Let $V$ be an $n$-dimensional inner product space. Assume $G$ is a subgroup of the symmetric group of degree $m$, and $\lambda$ is an irreducible character of $G$. Consider the \emph{Cartesian symmetrizer} $C_{\lambda}$ on the Cartesian…

A $(K,\Lambda)$ shift-modulation invariant space is a subspace of $L^2(G)$, that is invariant by translations along elements in $K$ and modulations by elements in $\Lambda$. Here $G$ is a locally compact abelian group, and $K$ and $\Lambda$…

Let $G$ be a group, $R$ an integral domain, and $V_G$ the subspace of the group algebra $R[G]$ consisting of all the elements of $R[G]$ whose coefficient of the identity element $1_G$ of $G$ is equal to zero. Motivated by the Mathieu…

Let $\Gamma=q_1\mathbb{Z}\oplus q_2 \mathbb{Z}\oplus\cdots\oplus q_d\mathbb{Z}$, with $q_j\in \mathbb{Z}^+$ for each $j\in \{1,\ldots,d\}$, and denote by $\Delta$ the discrete Laplacian on $\ell^2\left( \mathbb{Z}^d\right)$. We describe…

Using an interplay between geometric methods in group theory and soft von Neuman algebraic techniques we prove that for any icc, acylindrically hyperbolic group $\Gamma$ its von Neumann algebra $L(\Gamma)$ satisfies the so-called ISR…

We study the Daugavet property in tensor products of Banach spaces. We show that $L_1(\mu)\widehat{\otimes}_\varepsilon L_1(\nu)$ has the Daugavet property when $\mu$ and $\nu$ are purely non-atomic measures. Also, we show that…

In contrast with the separable case, we prove that the existence of almost $L$-orthogonal vectors in a nonseparable Banach space $X$ (octahedrality) does not imply the existence of nonzero vectors in $X^{**}$ being $L$-orthogonal to $X$,…

It is well-known that a finitely generated group $\Gamma$ has Kazhdan's property (T) if and only if the Laplacian element $\Delta$ in ${\mathbb R}[\Gamma]$ has a spectral gap. In this paper, we prove that this phenomenon is witnessed in…

Let $G$ be an amenable group. We define and study an algebra $\mathcal{A}_{sn}(G)$, which is related to invariant means on the subnormal subgroups of $G$. For a just infinite amenable group $G$, we show that $\mathcal{A}_{sn}(G)$ is…
