We show that group C*-algebras of finitely generated, nilpotent groups have finite nuclear dimension. It then follows, from a string of deep results, that the C*-algebra $A$ generated by an irreducible representation of such a group has…
In the present paper we develop a small cancellation theory for associative algebras with a basis of invertible elements. Namely, we study quotients of a group algebra of a free group and introduce three axioms for the corresponding…
We describe explicitly the canonical map $\chi:$ Spec $\ue(\a{g})\ \rightarrow \ $Spec $\ze$, where $\ue(\a{g})$ is a quantum loop algebra at an odd root of unity $\ve$. Here $\ze$ is the center of $\ue(\a{g})$ and Spec $R$ stands for the…
Let $F$ be a field of characteristic $p > 0$. We study the structure of the finite groups $G$ for which the socle of the center of $FG$ is an ideal in $FG$ and classify the finite $p$-groups $G$ with this property. Moreover, we give an…
In the paper we study irreducible representations of some nilpotent groups of finite abelian total rank. The main result of the paper states that if a torsion-free minimax group $G$ of nilpotency class 2 admits a faithful irreducible…
We investigate a class of Lie algebras which we call {\it generalized reductive Lie algebras}. These are generalizations of semi-simple, reductive, and affine Kac-Moody Lie algebras. A generalized reductive Lie algebra which has an…
We show that C*-algebras generated by irreducible representations of finitely generated nilpotent groups satisfy the universal coefficient theorem of Rosenberg and Schochet. This result combines with previous work to show that these…
Given a finite group $G$ and a subgroup $K$, we study the commutant of $\text{Ind}_K^G\theta$, where $\theta$ is an irreducible $K$-representation. After a careful analysis of Frobenius reciprocity, we are able to introduce an orthogonal…
Crystallization of the $C^*$-algebras $C(SU_{q}(n+1))$ was introduced by Giri \& Pal as a $C^*$-algebra $C(SU_{0}(n+1))$ given by a finite set of generators and relations. Here we study representations of the $C^*$-algebra $C(SU_{0}(n+1))$…
We study C*-irreducibility of inclusions of reduced twisted group C*-algebras and of reduced group C*-algebras. We characterize C*-irreducibility in the case of an inclusion arising from a normal subgroup, and exhibit many new examples of…
We present some fundamental results on (possibly nonlinear) algebraic semigroups and monoids. These include a version of Chevalley's structure theorem for irreducible algebraic monoids, and the description of all algebraic semigroup…
An algebra is called a GI-algebra if its group of units satisfies a group identity. We provide positive support for the following two open problems. 1. Does every algebraic GI-algebra satisfy a polynomial identity? 2. Is every algebraically…
We study a two-boundary extension of the Temperley-Lieb algebra which has recently arisen in statistical mechanics. This algebra lies in a quotient of the affine Hecke algebra of type C and has a natural diagrammatic representation. The…
We prove that any finitely generated elementary amenable group of zero (algebraic) entropy contains a nilpotent subgroup of finite index or, equivalently, any finitely generated elementary amenable group of exponential growth is of…
We prove that the algebra of observables of a certain gauge model is generated by unbounded elements in the sense of Woronowicz. The generators are constructed from the classical generators of invariant polynomials by means of geometric…
A quantum Capelli identity is given on the multiparameter quantum general linear group based on the $(p_{ij}, u)$-condition. The multiparameter quantum Pfaffian of the $(p_{ij}, u)$-quantum group is also introduced and the transformation…
The literature contains interesting examples of inclusions of simple C$^*$-algebras with the property that all intermediate C$^*$-algebras likewise are simple. In this article we take up a systematic study of such inclusions, which we refer…
We give an explicit description for a basis of a subgroup of finite index in the group of central units of the integral group ring $\Z G$ of a finite abelian-by-supersolvable group such that every cyclic subgroup of order not a divisor of 4…
We consider finite W-algebras U(g,e) associated to even multiplicity nilpotent elements in classical Lie algebras. We give a classification of finite dimensional irreducible U(g,e)-modules with integral central character in terms of the…
We study representations of the central extension of the Lie algebra of differential operators on the circle, the W-infinity algebra. We obtain complete and specialized character formulas for a large class of representations, which we call…
