Given a conjugacy class $\mathcal{C}$ in a group $G$ we define a new graph, $\Gamma(\mathcal{C})$, whose vertices are elements of $\mathcal{C}$; two vertices $g,h\in \mathcal{C}$ are connected in $\Gamma(\mathcal{C})$ if $[g,h]=1$ and…

A well-known theorem of P. Hall, usually called Hall's criterion for nilpotence, states: a group G is nilpotent whenever it has a normal subgroup N such that G/[N,N] and N are nilpotent. We widely generalize this result, replacing groups…

With every nontrivial connected algebraic group $G$ we associate a positive integer ${\rm gtd}(G)$ called the generic transitivity degree of $G$ and equal to the maximal $n$ such that there is a nontrivial action of $G$ on an irreducible…

Two successive generalizations of the usual tensor products are given. One can be constructed for arbitrary binary operations, and not only for semigroups, groups or vector spaces. The second one, still more general, is constructed for…

We introduce the notion of Zimmer amenability for actions of discrete quantum groups on von Neumann algebras. We prove generalizations of several fundamental results of the theory in the noncommutative case. In particular, we give a…

The theory of unified product and extending structures for alternative and pre-alternative algebras are developed. It is proved that the extending structures of these algebras can be classified by using some non-abelian cohomology and…

We show by example that the associative law does not hold for tensor products in the category of general (not necessarily locally convex) topological vector spaces. The same pathology occurs for tensor products of Hausdorff abelian…

In a recent paper, the author defined an operation of tensor product for a large class of $2$-representations of $\mathcal{U}^{+}$, the positive half of the $2$-category associated to $\mathfrak{sl}_{2}$. In this paper, we prove that the…

We examine the ideal structure of crossed products B\rtimes G where B is a continuous-trace C*-algebra and the induced action of G on the spectrum of B is proper. In particular, we are able to obtain a concrete description of the topology…

To a given multivariable C*-dynamical system $(A, \al)$ consisting of *-automorphisms, we associate a family of operator algebras $\alg(A, \al)$, which includes as specific examples the tensor algebra and the semicrossed product. It is…

Given a second-countable, locally compact group $G$, we consider amenable $G$-actions on separable, stable, nuclear $\mathrm{C}^\ast$-algebras that are isometrically shift-absorbing and tensorially absorb the trivial action on the Cuntz…

In this paper, we initiate the study of C*-algebras endowed with a twisted action of a locally compact Abelian Lie group, and we construct a twisted crossed product, which is in general a nonassociative, noncommutative, algebra. The…

In these notes we prove two main results: 1) It is well-known that two strongly continuous $E_0$-semigroups on $B(H)$ can be paired if and only if they have anti-isomorphic Arveson systems. For a new notion of pairing (which coincides only…

Horocyclic products are a well-studied class of metric spaces that provide models for various solvable Lie groups, Baumslag-Solitar groups, and Lamplighter groups. Let $G$ act geometrically on a horocyclic product $X \bowtie Y$ of…

The notion of a semitransitive binary action of a group $G$ on a topological space is introduced. A duality theorem is proved, establishing a bijective correspondence between semitransitive distributive binary $G$-spaces and topological…

Let $K\leq H$ be two finite groups and let $C\leq A$ be two finite abelian groups, with $H$ acting on $A$ as a group of isomorphisms admitting $C$ as a $K$-invariant subgroup. We study the homogeneous space $X\coloneqq\left(H\ltimes…

Let $n$ be a positive integer and let $G$ be a group. We denote by $\nu(G)$ a certain extension of the non-abelian tensor square $G \otimes G$ by $G \times G$. Set $T_{\otimes}(G) = \{g \otimes h \mid g,h \in G\}$. We prove that if the size…

If $G$ acts on a $C^*$-correspondence ${\mathcal H}$, then by the universal property $G$ acts on the Cuntz-Pimsner algebra ${\mathcal O}_{\mathcal H}$ and we study the crossed product ${\mathcal O}_{\mathcal H}\rtimes G$ and the fixed point…

In a previous paper we constructed rank and support variety theories for "quantum elementary abelian groups," that is, tensor products of copies of Taft algebras. In this paper we use both variety theories to classify the thick tensor…

This paper aims to study the $L^p$ Takai duality problem raised by N. C. Phillips. Let $G$ be a countable discrete Abelian group, $A$ be a separable unital $L^p$ operator algebra with $p\in [1,\infty)$, and $\alpha$ be an isometric action…
