Surface groups are known to be the Poincar\'e Duality groups of dimension two since the work of Eckmann, Linnell and M\"uller. We prove a prosolvable analogue of this result that allows us to show that surface groups are profinitely (and…
An $n$-dimensional closed flat manifold is said to be of diagonal type if the standard representation of its holonomy group $G$ is diagonal. An $n$-dimensional Bieberbach group of diagonal type is the fundamental group of such a manifold.…
We introduce and investigate using Hilbert modules the properties of the Fourier algebra A(G) for a locally compact groupoid G. We establish a duality theorem for such groupoids in terms of multiplicative module maps. This includes as a…
A version of the twisted Poincar\'{e} duality is proved between the Poisson homology and cohomology of a polynomial Poisson algebra with values in an arbitrary Poisson module. The duality is achieved by twisting the Poisson module structure…
To construct mirror symmetric Landau-Ginzburg models, P.Berglund, T.H\"ubsch and M.Henningson considered a pair $(f,G)$ consisting of an invertible polynomial $f$ and an abelian group $G$ of its symmetries together with a dual pair…
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…
In this paper, we explore the derived McKay correspondence for several reflection groups, namely reflection groups of rank two generated by reflections of order two. We prove that for each of the reflection groups $G=G(2m,m,2)$, $G_{12}$,…
Suppose $(G,G')$ is a dual pair of subgroups of a metaplectic group. The dual pair correspondence is a bijection between (subsets of the) irreducible representations of $G$ and $G'$, defined by the non-vanishing of…
Let $G$ be a complex simple Lie group, and $\mathfrak{g}$ its Lie algebra. It is well known that a finite-dimensional $G$-module $V$ carrying a nondegenerate invariant bilinear form gives rise to a Hamiltonian Poisson space with a quadratic…
Functional bases of second-order differential invariants of the Euclid, Poincar\'e, Galilei, conformal, and projective algebras are constructed. The results obtained allow us to describe new classes of nonlinear many-dimensional invariant…
Let G be a locally compact group, let X be a universal proper G-space, and let Z be a G-equivariant compactification of X that is H-equivariantly contractible for each compact subgroup H of G. Let W be the resulting boundary. Assuming the…
The Krein--Tannaka duality for compact groups was a generalization the Pontryagin--Van Kampen duality for locally compact abelian groups and a remote predecessor of the theory of tensor categories. It is less known that it found…
Greenlees and Sadofsky showed that the classifying spaces of finite groups are self-dual with respect to Morava K-theory K(n). Their duality map was constructed using a transfer map. We generalize their duality map and prove a K(n)-version…
For a topological group $G$, amenability can be characterized by the amenability of the convolution Banach algebra $L^1(G)$. Here a Banach algebra $A$ is called amenable if every bounded derivation from $A$ into any dual--type…
We use geometry of the wonderful compactification to obtain a new proof of the relation between Deligne-Lusztig (or Alvis-Curtis) duality for $p$-adic groups and the homological duality. This provides a new way to introduce an involution on…
To an inclusion topological groups H->G, we associate a naive G-spectrum. The special case when H=G gives the dualizing spectrum D_G introduced by the author in the first paper of this series. The main application will be to give a purely…
In this article, we establish the Drinfeld correspondence between Poisson Lie groups and their infinitesimal counterparts, Lie bialgebras, in the infinite-dimensional setting. Specifically, we extend this correspondence to regular Lie…
Abstract. Let G be a complex reductive group and A be an Abelian variety of dimension d over $\mathbb{C}$. We determine the Poincar\'e polynomials and also the mixed Hodge polynomials of the moduli space $\mathcal{M}_{A}^{H}(G)$ of G-Higgs…
Any Lie group G acting on a Euclidean nonvoid open subset M can be seen as a subgroup of the smooth diffeomorphisms Diff^\infty(M,M) of M into itself. Thus actions by such Lie groups G correspond to smooth coordinate transforms on M which,…
Our monograph presents the foundations of the theory of groups and semigroups acting isometrically on Gromov hyperbolic metric spaces. Our work unifies and extends a long list of results by many authors. We make it a point to avoid any…
