We prove a Freiman-type theorem for locally compact abelian groups. If A is a subset of a locally compact abelian group with Haar measure m and m(nA) < n^dm(A) for all n>d log d then we describe A in a way which is tight up to logarithmic…

Let G be a locally compact Hausdorff group in which every element is of finite order, and let P(G) denote the class of all regular probability measures on G. In this note, it is observed that a characterization of algebraically regular…

In this article we formulate a version of the analytic Novikov conjecture for semigroups rather than groups, and show that the descent argument from coarse geometry generalises effectively to this new situation.

In recent years there has been significant progress in the study of products of subsets of finite groups and of finite simple groups in particular. In this paper we consider which families of finite simple groups $G$ have the property that…

We present and explore a general method for deriving a Lie-Markov model from a finite semigroup. If the degree of the semigroup is $k$, the resulting model is a continuous-time Markov chain on $k$ states and, as a consequence of the product…

In this work one proves that, around each point of a dense open set (regular points), a real analytic or holomorphic bihamiltonian structure decomposes into a product of a Kronecker bihamiltonian structure and a symplectic one if a…

Let G be a finitely generated group and M_n(G) the number of its normal subgroup subgroups of index at most n. For linear groups G we show that M_n(G) can grow polynomially in n only if the semisimple part of the Zariski closure of G has…

We characterize supramenable groups in terms of existence of invariant probability measures for partial actions on compact Hausdorff spaces and existence of tracial states on partial crossed products. These characterizations show that, in…

We introduce a new class of categories generalizing locally presentable ones. The distinction does not manifest in the abelian case and, assuming Vopenka's principle, the same happens in the regular case. The category of complete partial…

We characterize left and right amenable semigroups of polynomials of one complex variable with respect to the composition operation. We also prove a number of results about amenable semigroups of arbitrary rational functions. In particular,…

We construct some new cohomology theories for topological groups and Lie groups and study some of its basic properties. For example, we introduce a cohomology theory based on measurable cochains which are continuous in a neighbourhood of…

We propose two universal constructions of globalization of a partial action of a semigroup on a set, satisfying certain conditions which arise in Morita theory of semigroups. One of the constructions is based on the tensor product of a…

Normalisation in probability theory turns a subdistribution into a proper distribution. It is a partial operation, since it is undefined for the zero subdistribution. This partiality makes it hard to reason equationally about normalisation.…

We develop a cohomology theory of groups based on partial actions and explore its relation with the partial Schur multiplier as well as with cohomology of inverse semigroups.

Local mean and individual (with respect to almost uniform convergence in Egorov's sense) ergodic theorems are established for actions of the semigroup $\mathbb R_+^d$ in symmetric spaces of measurable operators associated with a semifinite…

In this paper, we deal with locally graded groups whose subgroups are either subnormal or soluble of bounded derived length, say d. In particular, we prove that every locally (soluble-by-finite) group with this property is either soluble or…

We show that a central extension of locally quasiconvex subgroup separable hyperbolic group is product separable, so long as it is subgroup separable. We also establish that a central extension of a double coset separable group by a…

We study a class of two dimensional partially hyperbolic systems, not necessarily skew products, trying to establish the germ of a general theory. To illustrate the scope of the theory, we apply our results to the case of fast-slow…

Let $T_X$ be the semigroup of all non-invertible transformations on an arbitrary set $X$. It is known that $T_X$ is a regular semigroup. The principal right(left) ideals of a regular semigroup $S$ with partial left(right) translations as…

In this article we discuss local aspects of 2-functors defined on the path 2-groupoid of a smooth manifold; in particular, local trivializations and descent data. This is a contribution to a project that provides an axiomatic formulation of…
