The purpose of this paper is to study property (RD) for locally compact Hecke pairs. We discuss length functions on Hecke pairs and the growth of Hecke pairs. We establish an equivalence between property (RD) of locally compact groups and…

Let $X$ be a locally compact topological space, $(Y,d)$ be a boundedly compact metric space and $LB(X,Y)$ be the space of all locally bounded functions from $X$ to $Y$. We characterize compact sets in $LB(X,Y)$ equipped with the topology of…

In this paper, we study some characterizations of fuzzifying strong compactness including nets and pre-subbases properties. We also introduve new characterizations of locally strong compactness in fuzzifying topology and mappings.

This paper is devoted to the study of a certain type of martingale problems associated to general operators corresponding to processes which have finite lifetime. We analyse several properties and in particular the weak convergence of…

We study simplicial action of groups on one vertex Kan complexes. We show that every semi-direct product of the fundamental group of an one vertex Kan complex with a finite group can be simplicially realized. We also calculate the…

We prove the existence and uniqueness of geometric models of local isometry classes of locally homogeneous spaces with sectional curvature $|\operatorname{sec}|\leq 1$. Moreover, we show that the set of geometric models is compact in the…

We strengthen the analogy between convex co-compact Kleinian groups and convex co-compact subgroups of the mapping class group of a surface (in the sense of B. Farb and L. Mosher).

We discuss general formation of complementary behaviors, functions and forms in biological species competing for resources. We call orthogonalization the related processes on macro and micro-level of a self-organized formation of…

In finite graphs, finite-order tangles offer an abstract description of highly connected substructures. In infinite graphs, infinite-order tangles compactify the graphs in the same way the ends compactify connected locally finite graphs.…

We develop a class of homeomorphisms on a compact homogeneous space of a transitive group action and show how the class sheds new light on a decomposition problem. We further use this class to show that every such homogeneous space in a…

Automorphism groups of locally finite trees provide a large class of examples of simple totally disconnected locally compact groups. It is desirable to understand the connections between the global and local structure of such a group.…

Categorical spectra are spectrum objects in pointed $(\infty,\infty)$-categories: sequences $(X_n)$ equipped with equivalences $X_n\simeq \Omega X_{n+1}$. This thesis develops foundations for categorical spectra and constructs their tensor…

We study screening of optical singularities in random optical fields with two widely different length scales. We call the speckle patterns generated by such fields speckled speckle, because the major speckle spots in the pattern are…

We give an introduction to the Cayley-Abels graph for a totally disconnected, locally compact (tdlc) group. It is a generalization of the Cayley graph. We illustrate that on the one hand, Cayley-Abels graphs are useful tools to extend…

We consider groups of finite Morley rank with solvable local subgroups of even and mixed types. We also consider miscellaneous aspects of small groups of finite Morley rank of odd type.

We study the topological structure and the topological dynamics of groups of homeomorphisms of scattered spaces. For a large class of them (including the homeomorphism group of any ordinal space or of any locally compact scattered space),…

We describe a connection between the combinatorics of generators for certain groups and the combinatorics of Helly's 1913 theorem on convex sets. We use this connection to prove fixed point theorems for actions of these groups on…

Take a bounded symmetric domain $D$ and an arithmetic subgroup $\Gamma$ of ${\rm Aut}(D)$. Take the quotient $D/\Gamma$, compactify and resolve the singularities. We study the fundamental group of the compact complex manifolds that result…

We introduce moment maps for continuous unitary representations of general topological groups. For solvable separable locally compact groups, we prove that the closure of the image of the moment map of any representation is convex.

We develop equivariant KK-theory for locally compact groupoid actions by Morita equivalences on real and complex graded C*-algebras. Functoriality with respect to generalised morphisms and Bott periodicity are discussed. We introduce…
