Let a real Lie group $G$ have a $C^\infty$ action on a real manifold $M$. Assume every nontrivial element of $G$ has nowhere dense fixpoint set in $M$. First, we show, in every frame bundle, except possibly the $0$th, that each stabilizer…

Consider a totally disconnected group G, which is covirtually cyclic, i.e., contains a normal compact open subgroup L such that G/L is infinite cyclic. We establish a Wang sequence, which computes the algebraic K-groups of the Hecke algebra…

Let $(G,G')$ be a type I irreducible reductive dual pair in $\mathrm{Sp}(W_{\mathbb{R}})$. We assume that $(G,G')$ is in the stable range where $G$ is the smaller member. Let $K$ and $K'$ be maximal compact subgroups of $G$ and $G'$…

Ergodic systems, being indecomposable are important part of the study of dynamical systems but if a system is not ergodic, it is natural to ask the following question: Is it possible to split it into ergodic systems in such a way that the…

Let $\mathfrak g$ be a simple Lie algebra with Cartan subalgebra $\mathfrak h$ and Weyl group $W$. We build up a graded map $(\mathcal H\otimes \bigwedge\mathfrak h\otimes \mathfrak h)^W\to (\bigwedge \mathfrak g\otimes \mathfrak…

We consider a nonstationary sequence of independent random isometries of a compact metrizable space. Assuming that there are no proper closed subsets with deterministic image we establish a weak-* convergence to the unique invariant under…

Wojtkowski's system of $N$, $N \geq 2$, falling balls is a nonuniformly hyperbolic smooth dynamical system with singularities. It is still an open question whether this system is ergodic. We contribute towards an affirmative answer, by…

Let G be either an orthogonal, a symplectic or a unitary group over a local field F and let P = MN be a maximal parabolic subgroup. Then the Levi subgroup M is the product of a group of the same type as G and a general linear group, acting…

Let G be a torsion-free abelian group of finite rank. The orbits of the action of Aut(G) on the set of maximal independent subsets of G determine the indecomposable decompositions of G. G contains a direct sum of pure strongly…

The Guillemin-Sternberg conjecture states that "quantisation commutes with reduction" in a specific technical setting. So far, this conjecture has almost exclusively been stated and proved for compact Lie groups $G$ acting on compact…

We prove Sarnak's M\"obius disjointness conjecture for all unipotent translations on homogeneous spaces of real connected Lie groups. Namely, we show that if $G$ is any such group, $\Gamma\subset G$ a lattice, and $u\in G$ an Ad-unipotent…

We study the ergodicity of non-autonomous discrete dynamical systems with non-uniform expansion. As an application we get that any uniformly expanding finitely generated semigroup action of $C^{1+\alpha}$ local diffeomorphisms of a compact…

We prove the first rigidity and classification theorems for crossed product von Neumann algebras given by actions of non-discrete, locally compact groups. We prove that for arbitrary free probability measure preserving actions of connected…

If G is a locally essential subgroup of a compact abelian group K, then: (i) t(G)=w(G)=w(K), where t(G) is the tightness of G; (ii) if G is radial, then K must be metrizable; (iii) G contains a super-sequence S converging to 0 such that…

Let $\mathbb{G}$ be a locally compact quantum group, and $A,B$ von Neumann algebras on which $\mathbb{G}$ acts. We refer to these as $\mathbb{G}$-dynamical W$^*$-algebras. We make a study of $\mathbb{G}$-equivariant $A$-$B$-correspondences,…

Mostow's Decomposition Theorem is a refinement of the polar decomposition. It states the following. Let G be a compact connected semi-simple Lie group with Lie algebra g. Given a subspace h of g such that [X, [X, Y]] belongs to h for all X…

Let $\eta$ be an arbitrary countable ordinal. Using results of Bourgain and Gamburd on compact systems with spectral gap we show the existence of an action of the free group on three generators $F_3$ on a compact metric space $X$, admitting…

We show that the $\mathscr{B}$-free subshift $(S,X_{\mathscr{B}})$ associated to a $\mathscr{B}$-free system is intrinsically ergodic, i.e.\ it has exactly one measure of maximal entropy. Moreover, we study invariant measures for such…

Given a smooth free action of a compact connected Lie group $G$ on a smooth compact manifold $M$, we show that the space of $G$-invariant Riemannian metrics on $M$ whose automorphism group is precisely $G$ is open dense in the space of all…

We show that there exists a constant K such that for any PI- algebra W and any nondegenerate G-grading on W where G is any group (possibly infinite), there exists an abelian subgroup U of G with $[G : U] \leq exp(W)^K$. A G-grading $W =…
