We consider semigroups $\{\alpha_t: \; t\geq 0\}$ of normal, unital, completely positive maps $\alpha_t$ on a von Neumann algebra ${\mathcal M}$. The (predual) semigroup $\nu_t (\rho):= \rho \circ \alpha_t$ on normal states $\rho$ of…

We prove several functional and geometric inequalities only assuming the linearity and a quantitative $\mathrm{L}^\infty$-to-Lipschitz smoothing of the heat semigroup in metric-measure spaces. Our results comprise a Buser inequality, a…

An elementary proof is given for the fact that every locally compact subsemigroup of a compact topological group is a closed subgroup. A sample consequence is that every commutative cancellative pseudocompact locally compact Hausdorff…

In this paper, we establish the fractional Morrey-Sobolev type embeddings on stratified Lie groups. This extends and complements the Sobolev type embeddings derived in \cite{GKR}. As an application of the results, we study the following…

We describe the structure of 0-simple countably compact topological inverse semigroups and the structure of congruence-free countably compact topological inverse semigroups.

We define equivariant semiprojectivity for C*-algebras equipped with actions of compact groups. We prove that the following examples are equivariantly semiprojective: arbitrary finite dimensional C*-algebras with arbitrary actions of…

For a C$^*$-algebra $A$, it is an important problem to determine the Cuntz semigroup $\mathrm{Cu}(A\otimes\mathcal{Z})$ in terms of $\mathrm{Cu}(A)$. We approach this problem from the point of view of semigroup tensor products in the…

Let $S$ be a compact oriented surface. We construct homogeneous quasimorphisms on $Diff(S, area)$, on $Diff_0(S, area)$ and on $Ham(S)$ generalizing the constructions of Gambaudo-Ghys and Polterovich. We prove that there are infinitely many…

We study algebraic and topological properties of subsemigroups of the hyperspace exp(G) of non-empty compact subsets of a topological group G endowed with the Vietoris topology and the natural semigroup operation. On this base we prove that…

In this paper we introduce an inverse semigroup $\mathcal{S}(E,C)$ associated to a separated graph $(E,C)$ and describe its internal structure. In particular we show that it is strongly $E^*$-unitary and can be realized as a partial…

To every $\omega$-categorical structure $M$ one can associate two spaces of symmetries which determine the structure up to first-order bi-interpretability: the topological group $\mathrm{Aut}(M)$ of its automorphisms and the topological…

For a metric space $X$ we study metrics on the two copies of $X$. We define composition of such metrics and show that the equivalence classes of metrics are a semigroup $M(X)$ Our main result is that $M(X)$ is an inverse semigroup,…

Let $M$ be a compact Riemannian manifold with boundary $\pp M$ and $L= \DD+Z$ for a $C^1$-vector field $Z$ on $M$. Several equivalent statements, including the gradient and Poincar\'e/log-Sobolev type inequalities of the Neumann semigroup…

Suppose that a compact quantum group Q acts faithfully and isomet- rically (in the sense of [10]) on a smooth compact, oriented, connected Riemannian manifold M . If the manifold is stably parallelizable then it is shown that the compact…

We analyze a model for the homotopy theory of complete filtered $L_\infty$-algebras intended for applications in algebraic and algebro-geometric deformation theory. We provide an explicit proof of an unpublished result of E.\ Getzler which…

The most developed aspect of the theory of finite semigroups is their classification in pseudovarieties. The main motivation for investigating such entities comes from their connection with the classification of regular languages via…

This is an expostion of various aspects of amenability and paradoxical decompositions for groups, group actions and metric spaces. First, we review the formalism of pseudogroups, which is well adapted to stating the alternative of Tarski,…

The class of semisymmetric quasigroups is determined by the identity $(yx)y=x.$ We prove that the universal multiplication group of a semisymmetric quasigroup $Q$ is free over its underlying set and then specify the point-stabilizers of an…

Let $M$ be a compact connected pseudo-Riemannian manifold on which a solvable connected Lie group $G$ of isometries acts transitively. We show that $G$ acts almost freely on $M$ and that the metric on $M$ is induced by a bi-invariant…

We call a restriction semigroup almost perfect if it is proper and its least monoid congruence is perfect. We show that any such semigroup is isomorphic to a `$W$-product' $W(T,Y)$, where $T$ is a monoid, $Y$ is a semilattice and there is a…
