We study the connection between the condition that the reduced C*-algebra of a finitely presented group is exact and the Novikov conjecture holding. The main result states that if the group is strongly exact in the sense that the inclusion…

We prove a closed formula for the derivative, of any order, of a implicit function, in terms of some binomial building blocks, and explain the combinatorics behind the coefficients appearing in the formula.

Let $(1\to N_n\to G_n\to Q_n \to 1)_{n\in \mathbb{N}}$ be a sequence of extensions of countable discrete groups. Endow $(G_n)_{n\in \mathbb{N}}$ with metrics associated to proper length functions on $(G_n)_{n\in \mathbb{N}}$ respectively…

We show that the subgroup lattice of any finite group satisfies Frankl's Union-Closed Conjecture. We show the same for all lattices with a modular coatom, a family which includes all supersolvable and dually semimodular lattices. A common…

This short note shows how the Novikov conjecture for mapping class groups follows from a theorem of Kato and a result theorem of Hamenstadt.

In this note, we exhibit a method to prove the Baum-Connes conjecture (with coefficients) for extensions with finite quotients of certain groups which already satisfy the Baum-Connes conjecture. Interesting examples to which this method…

In this paper we prove the blockwise Alperin weight conjecture for finite special linear and unitary groups, for finite groups with abelian Sylow $3$-subgroups, and verify the inductive blockwise Alperin weight condition for certain cases…

Let CBV denote the Banach algebra of all continuous real-valued functions of bounded variation, defined in [0,1]. We show that the set of strongly singular functions in CBV is nonseparably spaceable. We also prove that certain families of…

We show that Kaplansky's unit conjecture is true, under the assumption that the underlying field is complex.

In this note, it is proved the existence of an infinitely generated multiplicative group consisting of entire functions that are, except for the constant function 1, hypercyclic with respect to the convolution operator associated to a given…

In an earlier paper, Dawson and the second author asked whether or not a Banach function algebra with dense invertible group can have a proper Shilov boundary. We give an example of a uniform algebra showing that this can happen, and…

Strong approximation with Brauer-Manin obstruction is established for smooth varieties containing a connected linear algebraic group with a compatible action.

In this paper, we prove the algebraic K-theory Novikov conjecture for group algebras over the ring of Schatten class operators. The main technical tool in the proof is an explicit construction of the Connes-Chern character.

Recently, there has been substantial progress on the Alperin weight conjecture. As a step to establish the Alperin weight conjecture for all finite groups, we prove the inductive blockwise Alperin weight condition for simple groups of…

Recent advances in our understanding of higher derived limits carry multiple implications in the fields of condensed and pyknotic mathematics, as well as for the study of strong homology. These implications are thematically diverse,…

The Markov group conjecture, a long-standing open problem in the theory of Markov processes with countable state space, asserts that a strongly continuous Markov semigroup $T = (T_t)_{t \in [0,\infty)}$ on $\ell^1$ has bounded generator if…

The 1973 Boone-Higman conjecture predicts that every finitely generated group with solvable word problem embeds in a finitely presented simple group. In this paper, we show that hyperbolic groups satisfy this conjecture, that is, each…

This paper gives a proof of the Baum-Connes conjecture with coefficients for hyperbolic groups. More precisely the injectivity of the Baum-Connes map was established by Kasparov and Skandalis and we prove the surjectivity.

We consider strong expansions of the theory of ordered abelian groups. We show that the assumption of strength has a multitude of desirable consequences for the structure of definable sets in such theories, in particular as relates to…

Group cohomology of polynomial growth is defined for any finitely generated discrete group, using cochains that have polynomial growth with respect to the word length function. We give a geometric condition that guarantees that it agrees…
