The spaces of point configurations on the projective line up to the action of $\mathrm{SL}(2,\mathbb K)$ and its maximal torus are canonically compactified by the Grothdieck-Knudsen and Losev-Manin moduli spaces $\overline M_{0,n}$ and…

This work concerns the representation theory and cohomology of a finite unipotent supergroup scheme $G$ over a perfect field $k$ of positive characteristic $p\ge 3$. It is proved that an element $x$ in the cohomology of $G$ is nilpotent if…

Consider the following property of a topological group G: every continuous affine G-action on a Hilbert space with a bounded orbit has a fixed point. We prove that this property characterizes amenability for locally compact sigma-compact…

The first part of this article is devoted to characterizing the cocycles $\alpha$ of a finite group $G$ that give rise to faithful projective representations of $G$. We prove that a $p$-group $G$ admits a faithful irreducible projective…

Given a locally compact quantum group $\mathbb G$, we study the structure of completely bounded homomorphisms $\pi:L^1(\mathbb G)\rightarrow\mathcal B(H)$, and the question of when they are similar to $\ast$-homomorphisms. By analogy with…

Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian ring with identity and $C$ a semidualizing module for $R$. Let $\mathscr{P}_C(R)$ and $\mathscr{I}_C (R)$ denote, respectively, the classes of $C$-projective and $C$-injective $R$-modules. We show that…

We study the unilateral shift (of arbitrary countable multiplicity) as a Hilbert module over the disc algebra and the associated extension groups. In relation with the problem of determining whether this module is projective, we consider a…

Let $G = N \rtimes A$, where $N$ is a graded Lie group and $A = \mathbb{R}^+$ acts on $N$ via homogeneous dilations. The quasi-regular representation $\pi = \mathrm{ind}_A^G (1)$ of $G$ can be realised to act on $L^2 (N)$. It is shown that…

Let G be a locally compact group, and let 1 < p < \infty. In this paper we investigate the injectivity of the left L^1(G)-module L^p(G). We define a family of amenability type conditions called (p,q)-amenability, for any 1 <= p <= q. For a…

Let G be the unramified unitary group in three variables defined over a p-adic field F of odd residual characteristic. In this paper, we investigate local newforms for irreducible admissible representations of G. We introduce a family of…

Let $G$ be a locally compact group. We examine the problem of determining when nonzero functions in $L^2(G)$ have linearly independent translations. In particular, we establish some results for the case when $G$ has an irreducible, square…

We construct projective unitary representations of the smooth Deligne cohomology group of a compact oriented Riemannian manifold of dimension 4k+1, generalizing positive energy representations of the loop group of the circle. We also…

Let $G$ be a connected, simply connected three-dimensional Lie group (unimodular or non-unimodular) equipped with a left-invariant (Riemannian or Lorentzian) metric $g$. By definition, the isometry group $\mathrm{Isom}(G, g)$ contains $G$…

The paper deals with weighted spaces $L_p^w(G)$ on a locally compact group G. If w is a positive measurable function on G then we define the space $L_p^w(G)$, $p\ge1$, as $L_p^w(G)=\{f:fw\in L_p(G)\}$. We consider weights such that these…

We develop the theory dg algebras with enough idempotents and their dg modules and show their equivalence with that of small dg categories and their dg modules. We introduce the concept of dg adjunction and show that the classical covariant…

We analyze the stable isomorphism type of polynomial rings on degree 1 generators as modules over the sub-algebra A(1) = <Sq^1, Sq^2> of the mod 2 Steenrod algebra. Since their augmentation ideals are Q_1-local, we do this by studying the…

We describe the full group of isometries of each left invariant Riemannian metric on the simply connected unimodular nilpotent or solvable $(R)$-type Lie groups of dimension four.
