In this paper we continue our study of property (RD) for Hecke pairs initiated in (V. Shirbisheh, Property (RD) for Hecke pairs. Mathematical Physics, Analysis and Geometry, vol. 15, no. 2, (2012), 173--192). We study the behavior of…

The dimension free Harnack inequality for the heat semigroup is established on the $\RCD(K,\infty)$ space, which is a non-smooth metric measure space having the Ricci curvature bounded from below in the sense of Lott-Sturm-Villani plus the…

For a locally compact group, property RD gives a control on the convolution norm of any compactly supported measure in terms of the $L^2$-norm of its density and the diameter of its support. We give a complete classification of those Lie…

In this paper we study two semigroups of completely positive unital self-adjoint maps on the von Neumann algebras of the free orthogonal quantum group $O_N^+$ and the free permutation quantum group $S_N^+$. We show that these semigroups…

We show that the discrete duals of the free orthogonal quantum groups have the Haagerup property and the completely contractive approximation property. Analogous results hold for the free unitary quantum groups and the quantum automorphism…

The study of Khintchin inequalities has a long history in abstract harmonic analysis. While there is almost no possibility of non-trivial Khintchine inequality for central Fourier series on compact connected semisimple Lie groups, we…

This is a survey of methods of proving or disproving the Rapid Decay property in groups. We present a centroid property of group actions on metric spaces. That property is a generalized (and corrected) version of the property (**)-relative…

Let $M$ be a complete, non-compact, connected Riemannian manifold with Ricci curvature bounded from below by a negative constant. A sufficient condition is obtained for open and connected sets $D$ in $M$ for which the corresponding…

Using the projection complex machinery, Bestvina-Bromberg-Fujiwara, Hagen-Petyt and Han-Nguyen-Yang prove that several classes of nonpositively-curved groups admit equivariant quasi-isometric embeddings into finite products of quasi-trees,…

We study \emph{property RD} in terms of rapid decay of matrix coefficients. We give new formulations of property RD in terms of a $L^{1}$-integra\-bility condition of a Banach representation. Combining this new definition with the existence…

We establish a new spectral criterion for Kazhdan's property $(T)$ which is applicable to a large class of discrete groups defined by generators and relations. As the main application, we prove property $(T)$ for the groups $EL_n(R)$, where…

Let $RG$ denote the group ring of the torsion group $G$ over a commutative ring $R$ with identity. In this paper we present proofs of some statements that appear without to be proved in the literature. We establish the valid implications…

We determine the Kac quotient and the RFD (residually finite dimensional) quotient for the Hopf *-algebras associated to universal orthogonal quantum groups.

We provide a new, dynamical criterion for the radial rapid decay property. We work out in detail the special case of the group $\Gamma := \mathbf{SL}_2(A)$, where $A := \mathbb{F}_q[X,X^{-1}]$ is the ring of Laurent polynomials with…

We present natural analogues of strong Haagerup inequalities on non-Kac free orthogonal quantum groups $O_F^+$ in which $L^p$-analytic problems are harder due to their non-tracial nature. Furthermore, we prove optimality of the…

We give a simple definition of property T for discrete quantum groups. We prove the basic expected properties: discrete quantum groups with property T are finitely generated and unimodular. Moreover we show that, for "I.C.C." discrete…

In this paper, we consider the question of contractivity vs. complete contractivity for domains in $\mathbb{C}^2$, which are unit balls with respect to some norm. We show that for a large class of Reinhardt domains, the corresponding Banach…

In this paper we study the residual nilpotence of groups defined by basic commutators. We prove that the so-called Hydra groups as well as certain of their generalizations and quotients are, in the main, residually torsion-free nilpotent.…

Extending a work of Carlen and Lieb, Biane has obtained the optimal hypercontractivity of the $q$-Ornstein-Uhlenbeck semigroup on the $q$-deformation of the free group algebra. In this note, we look for an extension of this result to the…

We introduce an analytic family of twisted Fourier transforms $\left\{\mathcal{F}^{(x)}_p\right\}_{x\in \mathbb{R},p\in [1,2)}$ for non-Kac compact quantum groups and establish a sharpened form of the Hausdorff-Young inequality in the range…
