A group is small if it has countably many complete $n$-types over the empty set for each natural number n. More generally, a group $G$ is weakly small if it has countably many complete 1-types over every finite subset of G. We show here…

Given a Fell bundle $\mathscr C\overset{q}{\to}\Xi$ over the discrete groupoid $\Xi$, we study the symmetry of the associated Hahn algebra $\ell^{\infty,1}(\Xi\!\mid\!\mathscr C)$ in terms of the isotropy subgroups of $\Xi$. We prove that…

We construct invariant quasimorphisms for groups acting on the circle. Furthermore, we provide a criterion for the non-extendablity of the resulting quasimorphisms and an explicit formula which relates the values of our quasimorphisms to…

For a finitely generated group $G$ and collection of subgroups $\mathcal{P}$ we prove that the relative Dehn function of a pair $(G,\mathcal{P})$ is invariant under quasi-isometry of pairs. Along the way we show quasi-isometries of pairs…

We extend some classical results of Cowling and Meda to the noncommutative setting. Let $(T_t)_{t>0}$ be a symmetric contraction semigroup on a noncommutative space $L_p(\mathcal{M}),$ and let the functions $\phi$ and $\psi$ be regularly…

We characterize those non-negative, measurable functions $\psi$ on $[0,1]$ and positive, continuous functions $\omega_1$ and $\omega_2$ on $\mathbb R^+$ for which the generalized Hardy-Ces\`aro operator $$(U_{\psi}f)(x)=\int_0^1…

A matching from a finite subset $A\subset\mathbb{Z}^n$ to another subset $B\subset\mathbb{Z}^n$ is a bijection $f : A \rightarrow B$ with the property that $a+f(a)$ never lies in $A$. A matching is called acyclic if it is uniquely…

A finitely generated subgroup H of a torsion-free hyperbolic group G is called immutable if there are only finitely many conjugacy classes of injections of H into G. We show that there is no uniform algorithm to recognize immutability,…

Let $I(X,K)$ be the incidence algebra of a finite connected poset $X$ over a field $K$ and $D(X,K)$ its subalgebra consisting of diagonal elements. We describe the bijective linear maps $\varphi:I(X,K)\to I(X,K)$ that strongly preserve the…

We present a general and natural framework to study the dynamics of composition operators on spaces of measurable functions, in which we then reconsider the characterizations for hypercyclic and mixing composition operators obtained by…

A QSIN group is a locally compact group $G$ whose group algebra $L^1(G)$ admits a quasi-central bounded approximate identity. Examples of QSIN groups include every amenable group and every discrete group. It is shown that if $G$ is a QSIN…

Motivated by work of Poguntke we study the question under what conditions simple subquotients of crossed products $A\rtimes_{\alpha}G$ by (twisted) actions of abelian groups $G$ are isomorphic to simple twisted group algebras of abelian…

For any real $\beta$ let $H^2_\beta$ be the Hardy-Sobolev space on the unit disc $\mathbb{D}$. $H^2_\beta$ is a reproducing kernel Hilbert space and its reproducing kernel is bounded when $\beta>1/2$. In this paper, we characterize that for…

If $\psi$ is analytic on the open unit disk $\mathbb{D}$ and $\varphi$ is an analytic self-map of $\mathbb{D}$, the weighted composition operator $C_{\psi,\varphi}$ is defined by $C_{\psi,\varphi}f(z)=\psi(z)f (\varphi (z))$, when $f$ is…

We consider continuous semigroups of analytic functions $\{\Phi_t\}_{t\geq0}$ in the so-called Gordon-Hedenmalm class $\mathcal{G}$, that is, the family of analytic functions $\Phi:\mathbb C_+\to \mathbb C_+$ giving rise to bounded…

An algorithm is constructed that, when given an explicit presentation of a finitely generated nilpotent group $G,$ decides for any pair of endomorphisms $\varphi, \psi : G \to G$ and any pair of elements $u, v \in G,$ whether or not the…

The operator-valued Schur-class is defined to be the set of holomorphic functions $S$ mapping the unit disk into the space of contraction operators between two Hilbert spaces. There are a number of alternate characterizations: the operator…

Recently a new equivalence relation between weak* closed operator spaces acting on Hilbert spaces has appeared. Two weak* closed operator spaces U, V are called weak TRO equivalent if there exist ternary rings of operators M_i, i=1,2 such…

We consider group-valued cocycles over dynamical systems with hyperbolic behavior. The base system is either a hyperbolic diffeomorphism or a mixing subshift of finite type. The cocycle $A$ takes values in the group of invertible bounded…

A conjugation $C$ on a separable complex Hilbert space $\mathcal H$ is an antilinear operator that is isometric and involutive. In this notes, we characterize all conjugations on the Hardy-Hilbert space $H^{2}$ over the disk. In addition,…
