For a locally compact group $G$, let $A^n(G)$ denote the multidimensional Fourier algebra given by $ \otimes_{n}^{eh} A(G).$ This work explores the approximation identity and operator amenability of the algebra $A^n(G)$. Further, we study…

A group of bijections G acting on a set X is said with fixed points (abbreviated as gaf from the french "groupe {\`a} points fixes") if any element of G has at least one fixed point in X. The G group is said with a common fixed point…

The fixed-point spectrum of a locally compact second countable group G on lp is defined to be the set of real numbers p such that every action by affine isometries of G on lp admits a fixed-point. We show that this set is either empty, or…

We prove that a closed convex subset $C$ of a real Hilbert space $X$ has the fixed point property for $(c)$-mappings if and only if $C$ is bounded. Some convergence results about the iterations are obtained.

It is shown, for a given graph group $G$, that the fixed point subgroup Fix$\,\varphi$ is finitely generated for every endomorphism $\varphi$ of $G$ if and only if $G$ is a free product of free abelian groups. The same conditions hold for…

We prove that action of a semigroup T on compact metric space X by continuous selfmaps is strongly proximal if and only if T action on P(X), the space of probability measures on $X$ with weak topology, is strongly proximal. As a consequence…

A uniform space $X$ is said to be proximally fine if every proximally continuous map on $X$ into a uniform is uniformly continuous. We supply a proof that every topological group which is functionnaly generated by its precompact subsets is…

We investigate the class of groups admitting an action on a set with an invariant mean. It turns out that many free products admit such an action. We give a complete characterisation of such free products in terms of a strong fixed point…

We prove that the action of the automorphism group of a building on its boundary is topologically amenable. The notion of boundary we use was defined in a previous paper \cite{CL}. It follows from this result that such groups have property…

We study the maximum Hamming distance (or rather, the complementary notion of "minimum approximability") of a general function on a finite group $G$ to either of the sets $\operatorname{End}(G)$ and $\operatorname{Aff}(G)$, of group…

We introduce a notion of productivity (summability) of sequences in a topological group G, parametrized by a given function f : N --> omega+1. The extreme case when f is the function taking constant value omega is closely related to the TAP…

We study groups of homeomorphic bijections on spaces that are finite unions of compact connected linearly ordered subsets. We prove that all such groups when endowed with the topology of point-wise convergence are topological groups. }

Given a Tychonoff space $X$, let $F(X)$ and $A(X)$ be respectively the free topological group and the free Abelian topological group over $X$ in the sense of Markov. In this paper, we provide some topological properties of $X$ whenever one…

In this paper we study analogues of amenability for topological groups in the context of definable structures. We prove fixed point theorems for such groups. More importantly, we propose definitions for definable actions and continuous…

We prove that if $G\subset\text{Diff}^{1}(\mathbb{R}^2)$ is an Abelian subgroup generated by a family of commuting diffeomorphisms of the plane, all of which are $C^{1}$-close to the identity in the strong $C^{1}$-topology, and if there…

A group is said to be strongly amenable if each of its proximal topological actions has a fixed point. We show that a finitely generated group is strongly amenable if and only if it is virtually nilpotent. More generally, a countable…

We let the central Fourier algebra, ZA(G), be the subalgebra of functions u in the Fourier algebra A(G) of a compact group, for which u(xyx^{-1})=u(y) for all x,y in G. We show that this algebra admits bounded point derivations whenever G…

This article introduces and studies the tight approximation property, a property of algebraic varieties defined over the function field of a complex or real curve that refines the weak approximation property (and the known cohomological…

We prove that if $\F$ is an abelian group of $C^1$ diffeomorphisms isotopic to the identity of a closed surface $S$ of genus at least two then there is a common fixed point for all elements of $\F.$

We investigate fixed point properties for isometric actions of topological groups on a wide class of metric spaces, with a particular emphasis on Hilbert spaces. Instead of requiring the action to be continuous, we assume that it is…
