Normal elements (or multipliers) of the C* algebra of a certain class of locally compact groupoids admit a natural faithful representation as normal operators on the $L^2$-space of a dense orbit of the groupoid. We prove norm estimates on…
Let $W$ be a Weyl group, and let $\CT_W$ be the complex toric variety attached to the fan of cones corresponding to the reflecting hyperplanes of $W$, and its weight lattice. The real locus $\CT_W(\R)$ is a smooth, connected, compact…
Quadric complexes are square complexes satisfying a certain combinatorial nonpositive curvature condition. These complexes generalize 2-dimensional CAT(0) cube complexes and are a square analog of systolic complexes. We introduce and study…
An argument of A.Borel shows that every compact connected Lie group is homeomorphic to the Cartesian product of its derived subgroup and a torus. We prove a parallel result for definably compact definably connected groups definable in an…
We provide geometric methods to give bounds on the large-scale dimension of CAT(0) cube complexes quasiisometric to a given group $G$. In situations where these bounds conflict we obtain obstructions to $G$ being cocompactly cubulated. More…
In this paper we introduce a common framework for describing the topological part of the Baum-Connes conjecture for a wide class of groups. We compute the Bredon homology for groups with aspherical presentation, one-relator quotients of…
In this article, we establish some new combinatorial properties of cone types in Coxeter groups. Firstly, we show that for any element $x$ in a Coxeter group $W$ and root $\beta$ in its inversion set $\Phi(x)$, the set of elements $y \in W$…
In this paper, we study the geometry of cone-offs of CAT(0) cube complexes over a family of combinatorially convex subcomplexes, with an emphasis on their Gromov-hyperbolicity. A first application gives a direct cubical proof of the…
As part of the study of correspondence functors, the present paper investigates their tensor product and proves some of its main properties. In particular, the correspondence functor associated to a finite lattice has the structure of a…
We extend the concepts of the associator and commutator from algebras with a binary multiplication law to algebras with a ternary multiplication law using cube roots of unity. By analogy with the Jacobi identity for the binary commutator,…
A general form of contractive idempotent functionals on coamenable locally compact quantum groups is obtained, generalising the result of Greenleaf on contractive measures on locally compact groups. The image of a convolution operator…
We consider the action of a noncompact torus H on the compact quotient G/L, where G is a Lie group containing H and L is a uniform lattice in G. Using harmonic analysis on G we prove a formula relating the compact orbits of H to the action…
Let $S$ be KLT threefold singularity over an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic $p>5$. We prove that its local \'etale fundamental group is tame and finite. Further, we show that every finite unipotent torsor over a big…
The paper contains a generalization of known properties of Chebyshev polynomials of the second kind in one variable to polynomials of $n$ variables based on the root lattices of compact simple Lie groups $G$ of any type and of rank $n$. The…
How different is the universal cover of a given finite 2-complex from a 3-manifold (from the proper homotopy viewpoint)? Regarding this question, we recall that a finitely presented group $G$ is said to be properly 3-realizable if there…
For W a finite (2-)reflection group and B its (generalized) braid group, we determine the Zariski closure of the image of B inside the corresponding Iwahori-Hecke algebra. The Lie algebra of this closure is reductive and generated in the…
It is known that commutators of commutators can be written as products of cubes, with the current upper bound on the number of cubes being 60. We discuss how proofs extracted via coset enumeration can be used to investigate this problem,…
Let $G$ be a connected exponential Lie group and $R$ be the solvable radical of $G$. We describe a condition on $G/R$ under which one can then conclude that $R$ is an exponential Lie group. The condition holds in particular when $G$ is a…
The aim of this paper is to introduce and to investigate the analogues of torsors for compact quantum groups and to study their role in representation theory. Let A be a unitarizable Hopf *-algebra: we show that there is a category…
We prove an explicit formula for the tensor product with itself of an irreducible complex representation of the symmetric group defined by a rectangle of height two. We also describe part of the decomposition for the tensor product of…
