A major theme in arithmetic combinatorics is proving multiple recurrence results on semigroups (such as Szemer\'edi's theorem) and this can often be done using methods of ergodic Ramsey theory. What usually lies at the heart of such proofs…
In this paper, a decomposition theorem for (covariant) unitary group representations on Kaplansky-Hilbert modules over Stone algebras is established, which generalizes the well-known Hilbert space case (where it coincides with the…
Given a simple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ and an element $\mu\in\mathfrak{g}^*$, the corresponding shift of argument subalgebra of $\text{S}(\mathfrak{g})$ is Poisson commutative. In the case where $\mu$ is regular, this subalgebra is known…
We establish an uncountable amenable ergodic Roth theorem, in which the acting group is not assumed to be countable and the space need not be separable. This generalizes a previous result of Bergelson, McCutcheon and Zhang, and complements…
We show that an arbitrary nilprogression can be approximated by a proper coset nilprogression in upper-triangular form. This can be thought of as a nilpotent version of the Freiman-Bilu result that a generalised arithmetic progression can…
Let $k$ be a field of characteristic $0$, let $\mathsf{C}$ be a finite split category, let $\alpha$ be a 2-cocycle of $\mathsf{C}$ with values in the multiplicative group of $k$, and consider the resulting twisted category algebra…
In this paper, a question due to Heckenberger, Shareshian and Welker on racks in [7] is positively answered. A rack is a set together with a selfdistributive bijective binary operation. We show that the lattice of subracks of every finite…
For an arbitrary group, the subgroups form a lattice with order determined by set inclusion. Not every lattice is isomorphic to the subgroup lattice for a group. However, Birkhoff and Frink proved that any compactly generated lattice is…
Many groups possess highly symmetric generating sets that are naturally endowed with an underlying combinatorial structure. Such generating sets can prove to be extremely useful both theoretically in providing new existence proofs for…
Let G be a semisimple Lie group with associated symmetric space D, and let Gamma subset G be a cocompact arithmetic group. Let L be a lattice inside a Z Gamma-module arising from a rational finite-dimensional complex representation of G.…
Our main result states that when A, B, C are subsets of Z/NZ of respective densities \alpha,\beta,\gamma, the sumset A + B + C contains an arithmetic progression of length at least e^{c(\log N)^c} for densities \alpha > (\log N)^{-2 +…
We provide an abstract categorical framework that relates the Cuntz semigroups of the C$^*$-algebras $A$ and $A\otimes \mathcal{K}$. This is done through a certain completion of ordered monoids by adding suprema of countable ascending…
An axiomatic approach to the representation theory of Coxeter groups and their Hecke algebras was presented in [1]. Combinatorial aspects of this construction are studied in this paper. In particular, the symmetric group case is…
We prove a conjecture of Helfgott on the structure of sets of bounded tripling in bounded rank, which states the following. Let $A$ be a finite symmetric subset of $\mathrm{GL}_n(\mathbf{F})$ for any field $\mathbf{F}$ such that $|A^3| \leq…
In 1975 Szemer\'edi proved that a set of integers of positive upper density contains arbitrarily long arithmetic progressions. Bergelson and Leibman showed in 1996 that the common difference of the arithmetic progression can be a square, a…
We prove that the Farrell-Jones assembly map for connective algebraic K-theory is rationally injective, under mild homological finiteness conditions on the group and assuming that a weak version of the Leopoldt-Schneider conjecture holds…
We develop a theory of adjunctions in semigroup categories, i.e. monoidal categories without a unit object. We show that a rigid semigroup category is promonoidal, and thus one can naturally adjoin a unit object to it. This extends the…
In his study of amenable unitary representations, M. E. B. Bekka asked if there is an analogue for such representations of the remarkable fixed-point property for amenable groups. In this paper, we prove such a fixed-point theorem in the…
In this work, we are concerned with hierarchically hyperbolic spaces and hierarchically hyperbolic groups. Our main result is a wide generalization of a combination theorem of Behrstock, Hagen, and Sisto. In particular, as a consequence, we…
It is well known that in Zermelo-Fraenkel (ZF) set theory any finite set is decidable. In this paper we discuss an extension of ZF where this result is no longer valid. Such an extension is quasi-set theory and it has its origin on problems…
