Every countable group $G$ can be embedded in a finitely generated group $G^*$ that is hopfian and complete, i.e. $G^*$ has trivial centre and every epimorphism $G^*\to G^*$ is an inner automorphism. Every finite subgroup of $G^*$ is…

For a finite abelian group $G$, let $\beta_{\mathrm{sep}}(G)$ denote its separating Noether number. We determine $\beta_{\mathrm{sep}}(G)$ exactly for every finite abelian group $ G \cong C_{n_1}\oplus \cdots \oplus C_{n_r}$ with $ 1<n_1…

We prove that any meager quasi-analytic subgroup of a topological group $G$ belongs to every $\sigma$-ideal $\mathcal I$ on $G$ possessing the closed $\pm n$-Steinhaus property for some $n\in\mathbb N$. An ideal $\mathcal I$ on a…

In this paper we will prove that all the elements in the smallest ideal K($\beta$N) in the semigroup of the Stone Cech compactification ($\beta$N,.) of the discrete semigroup of natural numbers N under multiplication constitute a single…

Our purpose is to study in the setting of locally compact groupoids the analogues of the well-known equivalent definitions of exactness for discrete groups. Our best results are obtained for a class of \'etale groupoids that we call inner…

We introduce the notion of an introverted Boolean algebra $\cal B$ of closed-and-open subsets of a topological group $G$, show that the associated Stone space $(\nu_{\cal B} G, \nu_{\cal B})$ is a totally disconnected semigroup…

Let $G$ be a locally compact group. We show how complemented ideals in the Fourier algebra $A(G)$ of $G$ arise naturally from a class of thin sets known as Leinert sets. Moreover, we also present an explicit example of a closed ideal in…

Let $G=G(K)$ be a simple algebraic group defined over an algebraically closed field $K$ of characteristic $p>0$. A subgroup $X$ of $G$ is said to be $G$-completely reducible if, whenever it is contained in a parabolic subgroup of $G$, it is…

In this paper, we look at the question of when various ideals in the Fourier algebra $A(G)$ or its closures $A_M(G)$ and $A_{cb}(G)$ in, respectively, its multiplier and $cb$-multiplier algebra are Arens regular. We show that in each case,…

By definition, the sharp packing index $\ind_P^\sharp(A)$ of a subset $A$ of an abelian group $G$ is the smallest cardinal $\kappa$ such that for any subset $B\subset G$ of size $|B|\ge\kappa$ the family $\{b+A:b\in B\}$ is not disjoint. We…

Let $G$ be a compact $p$-adic analytic group. We recall the well-understood finite radical $\Delta^+$ and FC-centre $\Delta$, and introduce a $p$-adic analogue of Roseblade's subgroup $\mathrm{nio}(G)$, the unique largest orbitally sound…

Let G be a nilpotent p-valuable (compact p-adic Lie) group. There is an ongoing investigation into the prime ideals of its completed group algebra (Iwasawa algebra), and there remains an open conjecture that they can all be proved to have a…

It is shown that a locally compact group $G$ is amenable if and only if some certain closed ideals of the Fig\`{a}-Talamanca-Herz algebra $A_{p}(G)$ admit bounded $\Delta$-weak approximate identities. Also, similar results are obtained for…

If $S$ is a discrete semigroup, then $\beta S$ has a natural, left-topological semigroup structure extending $S$. Under some very mild conditions, $U(S)$, the set of uniform ultrafilters on $S$, is a two-sided ideal of $\beta S$, and…

Let $G$ be a torsionfree compact $p$-adic analytic group. We give sufficient conditions on $p$ and $G$ which ensure that the Iwasawa algebra $\Omega_G$ of $G$ has no non-trivial two-sided reflexive ideals. Consequently, these conditions…

Given a C*-algebra B which is graded over a discrete group G we consider ideals of B which are invariant under the projections onto each of the grading subspaces. If G is exact and the standard conditional expectation of B is faithful we…

Throughout this Abstract, $G$ is a topological Abelian group and $\hat{G}$ is the space of continuous homomorphisms from $G$ into $T$ in the compact-open topology. A dense subgroup $D$ of $G$ determines $G$ if the (necessarily continuous)…

Let $\mathcal C$ be a class of topological semigroups. A semigroup $X$ is called (1) $\mathcal C$-$closed$ if $X$ is closed in every topological semigroup $Y\in\mathcal C$ containing $X$ as a discrete subsemigroup, (2) $ideally$ $\mathcal…

We develop a notion of a non-commutative hull for a left ideal of the $L^1$-algebra of a compact quantum group $\mathbb{G}$. A notion of non-commutative spectral synthesis for compact quantum groups is proposed as well. It is shown that a…

Consider the pair $(G,P)$ consisting of an abelian lattice-ordered discrete group $G$ and its positive cone $P$. Let $\alpha$ be an action of $P$ by extendible endomorphisms of a $C^*$-algebra $A$. We show that the Nica-Toeplitz algebra…
