We provide a new construction of a topological group model for the string group of a compact, simple, and simply-connected Lie group, by solving the obstruction realization problem for compact group $G$-kernels on full factors. Furthermore,…

We study the relationship between the dynamics of the action $\alpha$ of a discrete group $G$ on a von Neumann algebra $M$, and structural properties of the associated crossed product inclusion $L(G) \subseteq M \rtimes_\alpha G$, and its…

We discuss a strategy for classifying anomalous actions through model action absorption. We use this to upgrade existing classification results for Rokhlin actions of finite groups on C$^*$-algebras, with further assuming a UHF-absorption…

For a pair of groups $G, H$ we study pairs of actions $G$ on $H$ and $H$ on $G$ such that these pairs are compatible and non-abelian tensor products $G \otimes H$ are defined.

Let $X$ be a compact metric space and let $\Lambda$ be a $\Z^k$ ($k\ge 1$) action on $X.$ We give a solution to a version of Voiculescu's problem of AF-embedding: The crossed product $C(X)\rtimes_{\Lambda}\Z^k$ can be embedded into a unital…

For actions with a dense orbit of a connected noncompact simple Lie group $G$, we obtain some global rigidity results when the actions preserve certain geometric structures. In particular, we prove that for a $G$-action to be equivalent to…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $\mathcal{U} (\mathbb{Z} G)$ the unit group of the integral group ring $\mathbb{Z} G$. We prove a unit theorem, namely a characterization of when $\mathcal{U}(\mathbb{Z}G)$ satisfies Kazhdan's property…

The classical Gaussian functor associates to every orthogonal representation of a locally compact group $G$ a probability measure preserving action of $G$ called a Gaussian action. In this paper, we generalize this construction by…

Let $G$ be a finite group, let $A$ be an infinite-dimensional stably finite simple unital C*-algebra, and let $\alpha \colon G \to \operatorname{Aut} (A)$ be a tracially strictly approximately inner action of $G$ on $A$. Then the radius of…

Let G be an affine algebraic group and let X be an affine algebraic variety. An action $G\times X \to X$ is called observable if for any G-invariant, proper, closed subset Y of X there is a nonzero invariant $f\in K[X]^G$ such that f(Y) =0.…

Let $X$ be a compact metric space and let $\af$ be a homeomorphism on $X.$ Related to a theorem of Pimsner, we show that $C(X)\rtimes_{\af}\Z$ can be embedded into a unital simple AF-algebra if and only if there is a strictly positive…

Actions of semisimple Hopf algebras H over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero on commutative domains were classified recently by the authors. The answer turns out to be very simple- if the action is inner faithful, then H…

We introduce the tracial Rokhlin property for automorphisms of stably finite simple unital C*-algebras containing enough projections. This property is formally weaker than the various Rokhlin properties considered by Herman and Ocneanu,…
