We define the notion of a partial action on a generalized Boolean algebra and associate to every such system and commutative unital ring $R$ an $R$-algebra. We prove that every strongly $E^{\ast}$-unitary inverse semigroup has an associated…
Let $G$ be a connected reductive group. In a previous paper, arxiv:1702.08264, is was shown that the dual group $G^\vee_X$ attached to a $G$-variety $X$ admits a natural homomorphism with finite kernel to the Langlands dual group $G^\vee$…
For all but finitely many compact orientable surfaces, we show that any superinjective map from the complex of separating curves into itself is induced by an element of the extended mapping class group. We apply this result to proving that…
This is an expanded version of the text ``Perverse Sheaves on Loop Grassmannians and Langlands Duality'', AG/9703010. The main new result is a topological realization of algebraic representations of reductive groups over arbitrary rings. We…
Any finite set of linear operators on an algebra $A$ yields an operator algebra $B$ and a module structure on A, whose endomorphism ring is isomorphic to a subring $A^B$ of certain invariant elements of $A$. We show that if $A$ is a…
We prove that the category $\mathcal{M}$ of abelian groups with a Polish cover introduced in collaboration with Bergfalk and Panagiotopoulos is the left heart of (the derived category of) the quasi-abelian category $\mathcal{A}$ of abelian…
We introduce the right (left) Gorenstein subcategory relative to an additive subcategory $\C$ of an abelian category $\A$, and prove that the right Gorenstein subcategory $r\mathcal{G}(\mathscr{C})$ is closed under extensions, kernels of…
The category of topological spaces endowed with two marked points is equipped with two families $\mathbf F_n$ and $\mathbf H_n$ of functors to the category of abelian groups, indexed by a nonnegative integer $n$: namely, the functor…
Let $B^\times$ be the biset functor over $\mathbb{F}_2$ sending a finite group~$G$ to the group $B^\times(G)$ of units of its Burnside ring $B(G)$, and let $\widehat{B^\times}$ be its dual functor. The main theorem of this paper gives a…
We show that for a connected Lie group $G$, its Fourier algebra $A(G)$ is weakly amenable only if $G$ is abelian. Our main new idea is to show that weak amenability of $A(G)$ implies that the anti-diagonal,…
Let G be a connected real reductive Lie group acting linearly on a finite dimensional vector space V over R. This action admits a Kempf-Ness function and so we have an associated gradient map. If G is Abelian we explicitly compute the image…
In this paper we give an explicit description of the left adjoint of the forgetful functor from the algebraic category of G\"odel algebras (i.e., prelinear Heyting algebras) to the algebraic category of bounded prelinear Hilbert algebras.…
Let $F\colon \mathcal{C} \to \mathcal{E}$ be a functor from a category $\mathcal{C}$ to a homological (Borceux-Bourn) or semi-abelian (Janelidze-M\'arki-Tholen) category $\mathcal{E}$. We investigate conditions under which the homology of…
Let $\mathcal{G}$ be a properly face 2-coloured (say black and white) \break piecewise-linear triangulation of the sphere with vertex set $V$. Consider the abelian group $\mathcal{A}_W$ generated by the set $V$, with relations $r+c+s=0$ for…
This is the first installment in a series of papers in which we illustrate how classical invariants of homological algebra and algebraic topology can be enriched with additional descriptive set-theoretic information. To effect this…
We study the higher derived functors of the inverse limit of a functor F: D --> Z_{(p)}-mod, where D is one of the standard categories which arise when studying the homotopy theory of the classifying space of a finite group G, e.g., the…
Let $G$ be a finite group acting linearly on the vector space $V$ over a field of arbitrary characteristic. The action is called {\em coregular} if the invariant ring is generated by algebraically independent homogeneous invariants and the…
Assume that abelian categories $A, B$ over a field admit countable direct limits and that these limits are exact. Let $F: D^+_{dg}(A) --> D^+_{dg}(B)$ be a DG quasi-functor such that the functor $Ho(F): D^+(A) \to D^+(B)$ carries $D^{\geq…
Let $A$ be an abelian variety defined over a number field and let $G$ denote its Sato-Tate group. Under the assumption of certain standard conjectures on $L$-functions attached to the irreducible representations of $G$, we study the…
Let $S$ be a semi direct product $S=N\rtimes A$ where $N$ is a connected and simply connected, non-abelian, nilpotent meta-abelian Lie group and $A$ is isomorphic with $\R^k,$ $k>1.$ We consider a class of second order left-invariant…
