The noncommutative (Cohn) localization S^{-1}R of a ring R is defined for any collection S of morphisms of f.g. projective left R-modules. We exhibit S^{-1}R as the endomorphism ring of R in an appropriate triangulated category. We use this…

In this paper we answer negatively a question posed by Casacuberta, Farjoun, and Libman about the preservation of perfect groups under localization functors. Indeed, we show that a certain $P$-localization of Berrick and Casacuberta's…

We study topologization of the semigroup $\mathscr{O\!\!I}\!_n(L)$ of finite partial order isomorphisms of a bounded rank of an infinite linear ordered set $(L,\leqslant)$. In particular we show that every $T_1$ left-topological…

A locally compact group $G$ has property PL if every isometric $G$-action either has bounded orbits or is (metrically) proper. For $p>1$, say that $G$ has property $BP_{L^p}$ if the same alternative holds for the smaller class of affine…

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…

For a countable discrete group $G$, we construct a new and concrete model for the equivariant topological $K$-homology theory of $G$, which is defined for all $G$-actions, not just for proper $G$-actions. The construction of our model…

The notion of a locally continuously perfect group is introduced and studied. This notion generalizes locally smoothly perfect groups introduced by Haller and Teichmann. Next, we prove that the path connected identity component of the group…

Using computations in the bidual of $\mathbb{B}(L^2M)$ we develop a new technique at the von Neumann algebra level to upgrade relative proper proximality to full proper proximality. This is used to structurally classify subalgebras of…

We prove that, for nice classes of infinite-dimensional smooth groups G, natural constructions in smooth topology and symplectic topology yield homotopically coherent group actions of G. This yields a bridge between infinite-dimensional…

It is known that locally compact groups approximable by finite ones are unimodular, but this condition is not sufficient, for example, the simple Lie groups are not approximable by finite ones as topological groups. In this paper the…

We prove a few basic facts about the space of bi-invariant (or left-invariant) total order relations on a torsion-free, nonabelian, nilpotent group G. For instance, we show that the space of bi-invariant orders has no isolated points (so it…

We prove the equality $\cat(\phi)=\cd(\phi)$ for epimorphisms $\phi:\Gamma\to \Lambda$ between torsion-free, finitely generated almost nilpotent groups $\Gamma$ and $\Lambda$. In addition, we prove the equality $\cat(\phi)=\cd(\phi)$ for…

In this paper we study the category of localizing motives $\operatorname{Mot}^{\operatorname{loc}}$ -- the target of the universal finitary localizing invariant of idempotent-complete stable categories as defined by Blumberg-Gepner-Tabuada.…

We show that several apparently unrelated formulas involving left or right Bousfield localizations in homotopy theory are induced by comparison maps associated with pairs of adjoint functors. Such comparison maps are used in the article to…

We sudy the behaviour of endomorphisms and automorphisms of groups involved in abelian group extensions. The main result can be stated as follows: Let $0\to N\to G\to Q \to 1$ be an abelian group extension. Then one has the following exact…

We describe a perfect group whose localization is not perfect.

Watts's Theorem says that a right exact functor F:Mod R-->Mod S that commutes with direct sums is isomorphic to -\otimes_R B where B is the R-S-bimodule FR. The main result in this paper is the following: if A is a cocomplete abelian…

We provide a new geometric proof of Reimann's theorem characterizing quasiconformal mappings as the ones preserving functions of bounded mean oscillation. While our proof is new already in the Euclidean spaces, it is applicable in…

We prove that the epimorphism relation is a complete analytic quasi-order on the space of countable groups. In the process, we obtain the result of independent interest that the epimorphism relation on pointed reflexive graphs is complete.

We show how to obtain recollements of triangulated categories using the theory of exact model structures. After noting how the theory relates to well-known notions in the simplest case of Frobenius categories, we apply these ideas to…
