We generalise the definition of a group algebra so that it makes sense for non-locally compact topological groups, in particular, we require that the representation theory of the group algebra is isomorphic (in the sense of Gelfand-Raikov)…

We establish existence of positive non-decreasing radial solutions for a nonlocal nonlinear Neumann problem both in the ball and in the annulus. The nonlinearity that we consider is rather general, allowing for supercritical growth (in the…

In this paper an automorphism of a unital C*-algebra is said to be /locally inner/ if on any element it agrees with some inner automorphism. We make a fairly complete study of local innerness in von Neumann algebras, incorporating…

This paper contains several results about the Chabauty space of a general locally compact abelian group. Notably, we determine its topological dimension, we characterize when it is totally disconnected or connected; we characterize isolated…

Amenable actions of locally compact groups on von Neumann algebras are investigated by exploiting the natural module structure of the crossed product over the Fourier algebra of the acting group. The resulting characterisation of…

We study lattices in non-positively curved metric spaces. Borel density is established in that setting as well as a form of Mostow rigidity. A converse to the flat torus theorem is provided. Geometric arithmeticity results are obtained…

Let $G$ be a (non compact) connected simply connected locally compact second countable Lie group, either abelian or unimodular of type I, and $\rho$ an irreducible unitary representation of $G$. Then, we define the analytic torsion of $G$…

We discuss the finiteness of the topological entropy of continuous endomorphims for some classes of locally compact groups. Firstly, we focus on the abelian case, imposing the condition of being compactly generated, and note an interesting…

This (quasi-)survey addresses the quasi-isometry classification of locally compact groups, with an emphasis on amenable hyperbolic locally compact groups. This encompasses the problem of quasi-isometry classification of homogeneous…

In this paper, we prove the local converse theorem for split even special orthogonal groups over a non-Archimedean local field of characteristic zero. This is the only case left on local converse theorems of split classical groups and the…

We study the removability of a singular set in the boundary of Neumann problem for elliptic equations with variable exponent. We consider the case where the singular set is compact, and give sufficient conditions for removability of this…

We construct a one parameter deformation of the group of $2\times 2$ upper triangular matrices with determinant 1 using the twisting construction. An interesting feature of this new example of a locally compact quantum group is that the…

Using the notion of a strongly regular hyperbolic automorphism of a locally finite Euclidean building, we prove that any (not necessarily discrete) closed, co-compact subgroup of the type-preserving automorphisms group of a locally finite…

In this talk, I will survey recent progress made on the classification of von Neumann algebras arising from countable groups and their actions on probability spaces. In particular, I will present the first results which provide classes of…

The aim of the article is to provide characterizations of the Haage-rup property for locally compact, second countable groups in terms of approximations of some non-ergodic invariant states by mixing ones for actions on unital…

Local versions of measurability have been around for a long time. Roughly, one splits the notion of $\mu $-completeness into pieces, and asks for a uniform ultrafilter over $\mu $ satisfying just some piece of $\mu $-completeness. Analogue…

The paper begins with short proofs of classical theorems by Frobenius and (resp.) Zorn on associative and (resp.) alternative real division algebras. These theorems characterize the first three (resp. four) Cayley-Dickson algebras. Then we…

We study universal groups for right-angled buildings. Inspired by Simon Smith's work on universal groups for trees, we explicitly allow local groups that are not necessarily finite nor transitive. We discuss various topological and…

In this article, we explore the problem of determining isomorphisms between the twisted complex group algebras of finite $p$-groups. This problem bears similarity to the classical group algebra isomorphism problem and has been recently…

In aperiodic order, non-periodic but "ordered" objects such as tilings, Delone sets, functions and measures are investigated. In this article we depict the common structure of these objects by using the general framework of abstract pattern…
