A locally compact contraction group is a pair (G,f) where G is a locally compact group and f an automorphism of G which is contractive in the sense that the forward orbit under f of each g in G converges to the neutral element e, as n tends…

The aim of the article is to provide characterizations of the Haage-rup property for locally compact, second countable groups in terms of approximations of some non-ergodic invariant states by mixing ones for actions on unital…

This work is motivated by the problem of finding locally compact group topologies for piecewise full groups (a.k.a.~ topological full groups). We determine that any piecewise full group that is locally compact in the compact-open topology…

Let $G/P$ be a complex cominuscule flag manifold of type $E_6,E_7$. We prove that each characteristic cycle of the intersection homology (IH) complex of a Schubert variety in $G/P$ is irreducible. The proof utilizes an earlier algorithm by…

We prove that amenability of a unitary co-representation $U$ of a locally compact quantum group passes to unitary co-representations that weakly contain $U$. This generalizes a result of Bekka, and answers affirmatively a question of…

We demonstrate that any full and faithful $*$-functor between approximable categories of locally finite coarse spaces induces a coarse embedding between the underlying spaces. Furthermore, we establish a general characterisation of such…

We study continuous bounded cohomology of totally disconnected locally compact groups with coefficients in a non-Archimedean valued field $K$. To capture the features of classical amenability that induce the vanishing of real bounded…

We give a constructive proof for the following new collar theorem: every locally collared closed set that is paracompact in a Hausdorff space is collared. This includes the important special case of locally collared closed sets in…

We prove that hyperbolic groups are weakly amenable. This partially extends the result of Cowling and Haagerup showing that lattices in simple Lie groups of real rank one are weakly amenable. We take a combinatorial approach in the spirit…

Let C be a smooth projective curve over an algebraically closed field of arbitrary characteristic. Let M_{r,L}^{ss} denote the projective coarse moduli scheme of semistable rank r vector bundles over C with fixed determinant L. We prove…

The purpose of this article is to relate coarse cohomology of metric spaces with a more computable cohomology. We introduce a notion of boundedly supported cohomology and prove that coarse cohomology of many spaces are isomorphic to the…

We prove that a closed subgroup $H$ of a second countable locally compact group $G$ is amenable if and only if its left regular representation on an Orlicz space $L^\Phi(G)$ for some $\Delta_2$-regular $N$-function $\Phi$ almost has…

For a discrete subgroup of an indefinite unitary group $U(1,n+1)$, $n\geq 1$, consider the attached modular variety. Using local Borcherds products, we study Heegner divisors in the local Picard group over a boundary component the…

Consider the character of an irreducible admissible representation of a p-adic reductive group. The Harish-Chandra-Howe local expansion expresses this character near a semisimple element as a linear combination of Fourier transforms of…

We prove that if G is a discrete group that admits a metrically proper action on a finite-dimensional CAT(0) cube complex X, then G is weakly amenable. We do this by constructing uniformly bounded Hilbert space representations for which the…

Working over infinite dimensional separable Hilbert spaces, residual results have been achieved for the space of contractive $C_{0}$-semigroups under the topology of uniform weak operator convergence on compact subsets of $\mathbb{R}_{+}$.…

The standard (Berezin-Toeplitz) geometric quantization of a compact Kaehler manifold is restricted by integrality conditions. These restrictions can be circumvented by passing to the universal covering space, provided that the lift of the…

We investigate how coarse embeddability of box spaces into Hilbert space behaves under group extensions. In particular, we prove a result which implies that a semidirect product of a finitely generated free group by a finitely generated…

The objective of this series is to study metric geometric properties of disjoint unions of amenable Cayley graphs by group properties of the Cayley accumulation points in the space of marked groups. In this Part II, we prove that a disjoint…

The author presents a new proof of injectivity of the composition of the inverse of the rational Chern Character in homology applied to the classifying space BG of a (countable) discrete group G, restricted to dimensions less or equal than…
