In this paper we study some new theories of characteristic homology classes for singular complex algebraic varieties. First we introduce a natural transformation T_{y}: K_{0}(var/X) -> H_{*}(X,Q)[y] commuting with proper pushdown, which…

Liedtke (2008) has introduced group functors $K$ and $\tilde K$, which are used in the context of describing certain invariants for complex algebraic surfaces. He proved that these functors are connected to the theory of central extensions…

Our initial aim was to answer the question: does the Frobenius (symmetric) property transfers from a strongly graded algebra to its homogeneous component of trivial degree? Related to it, we investigate invertible bimodules and the Picard…

It is shown that the multiplicative monoids of Brauer's centralizer algebras generated out of the basis are isomorphic to monoids of endomorphisms in categories where an endofunctor is adjoint to itself, and where, moreover, a kind of…

We solve a fundamental question posed in Frohardt's 1988 paper [8] on finite $2$-groups with Kantor familes, by showing that finite groups $K$ with a Kantor family $(\mathcal{F},\mathcal{F}^*)$ having distinct members $A, B \in \mathcal{F}$…

We generalize the positive solution of the Frobenius conjecture and refinements thereof by studying the structure of groups that admit a fix-point-free automorphism satisfying an identity. We show, in particular, that for every polynomial…

\input amssym.def \input amssym.tex Let $G$ be a connected algebraic reductive group over an algebraic closure of a prime field ${\Bbb F}_p$, defined over ${\Bbb F}_q$ thanks to a Frobenius $F$. Let $\ell$ be a prime different from $p$. Let…

We show that the twisted group C$^*$-algebra associated with a discrete FC-hypercentral group is simple (resp. has a unique tracial state) if and only if Kleppner's condition is satisfied. This generalizes a result of J. Packer for…

For a reductive group $G$, we introduce a notion of singular support for cocomplete dualizable DG-categories equipped with a strong $G$-action. This is done by considering the singular support of the sheaves of matrix coefficients arising…

In a 1991 paper, R. Mercer asserted that a Cartan bimodule isomorphism between Cartan bimodule algebras A_1 and A_2 extends uniquely to a normal *-isomorphism of the von Neumann algebras generated by A_1 and A_2 [13, Corollary 4.3].…

For a large class of word hyperbolic groups G the cross product C^*-algebra arising from the action of G on its Gromov boundary is shown to satisfy Poincare duality in K-theory. This class strictly contains fundamental groups of compact,…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $k$ a field of characteristic $p$. We conjecture that if $M$ is a $kG$-module with $H^*(G,M)$ finitely generated as a module over $H^*(G,k)$ then as an element of the stable module category…

G.D. Birkhoff extended the classical Riemann-Hilbert problem for differential equations to the case of ``fuchsian'' linear $q$-difference systems with rational coefficients. He solved it in the generic case: the classifying object which he…

Furstenberg and Glasner proved that for an arbitrary k in N, any piecewise syndetic set contains k term arithmetic progression and such collection is also piecewise syndetic in Z. They used algebraic structure of beta N. The above result…

Let $\alpha$ be a coprime automorphism of a group $G$ of prime order and let $P$ be an $\alpha$-invariant Sylow $p$-subgroup of $G$. Assume that $p\notin \pi(C_G(\alpha))$. Firstly, we prove that $G$ is $p$-nilpotent if and only if…

We define and study an analogue of the Baum-Connes assembly map for complex semisimple quantum groups, that is, Drinfeld doubles of $ q $-deformations of compact semisimple Lie groups. Our starting point is the deformation picture of the…

We equip the type $A$ diagrammatic Hecke category with a special derivation, so that after specialization to characteristic $p$ it becomes a $p$-dg category. We prove that the defining relations of the Hecke algebra are satisfied in the…

For a wide class of groups including polycyclic and finitely generated polynomial growth groups it is proved that the Reidemeister number of an automorphism f is equal to the number of finite-dimensional fixed points of the induced map f^…

We classify the Markov traces factoring through the Birman-Wenzl-Murakami (BMW) algebras. For this purpose, we define a common `cover' for the two variations of the BMW-algebra originating from the quantum orthogonal/symplectic duality,…

A detailed proof is given of a theorem describing the centraliser of a transitive permutation group, with applications to automorphism groups of objects in various categories of maps, hypermaps, dessins, polytopes and covering spaces, where…
