We will introduce a family $\Gamma_\beta, 1 < \beta \in {\mathbb{R}}$ of infinite non-amenable discrete groups as an interpolation of the Higman-Thompson groups $V_n, 1 < n \in {\mathbb{N}}$ by using the topological full groups of the…
The Pontryagin-Thom construction provides a fundamental link between cobordism groups and the homotopy groups of Thom spectra. Our main result refines this theorem, providing a more explicit geometric interpretation of the homotopy groups…
We show that if $G$ is a second countable locally compact Hausdorff \'etale groupoid carrying a suitable cocycle $c:G\to\mathbb{Z}$, then the reduced $C^*$-algebra of $G$ can be realised naturally as the Cuntz-Pimsner algebra of a…
Let $\overline{\mathcal{M}}_{g,n}$ be the moduli stack parametrizing Deligne-Mumford stable $n$-pointed genus $g$ curves and let $\overline{M}_{g,n}$ be its coarse moduli space: the Deligne-Mumford compactification of the moduli space of…
We continue to study Pythagorean unitary representation of Richard Thompson's groups $F,T,V$ and their extension to the Cuntz(-Dixmier) algebra. Any linear isometry from a Hilbert space to its direct sum square produces such. We focus on…
We study the space $Q_n$ of all configurations of $n$ ordered points on the circle such that no three points coincide, and in which one of the points (say, the last one) is fixed. We compute its fundamental group for $n<6$ and describe its…
The second author showed how Katsura's construction of the C*-algebra of a topological graph E may be twisted by a Hermitian line bundle L over the edge space E. The correspondence defining the algebra is obtained as the completion of the…
We describe a simple scheme for constructing finitely generated monoids in which left-divisibility is a linear ordering and for practically investigating these monoids. The approach is based on subword reversing, a general method of…
Let $n \geq 1$ be an odd integer. We construct an anticyclotomic Euler system for certain cuspidal automorphic representations of unitary groups with signature $(1, 2n-1)$.
We define certain natural finite sums of $n$'th roots of unity, called $G_P(n)$, that are associated to each convex integer polytope $P$, and which generalize the classical $1$-dimensional Gauss sum $G(n)$ defined over $\mathbb Z/ {n…
Using a unified method, we determine the structure of automorphisms and representations of arbitrary polyadic groups. More precisely, for a polyadic group $(G, f)=der_{\theta, b}(G, \cdot)$, we obtain a complete description of automorphisms…
It is not known whether Thompson's group F is automatic. With the recent extensions of the notion of an automatic group to graph automatic by Kharlampovich, Khoussainov and Miasnikov and then to C-graph automatic by the authors, a…
Polytopes in R^n with integral vertices form a monoid under the Minkowski sum, and the Grothendieck construction gives rise to a group. We show that every symmetric polytope is a norm in this group for every n.
Let $G$ be the group of unimodular automorphisms of $\mathbb C^2$. In the paper we prove two interesting results about this group. The first one is about absence of non-trivial finite-dimensional representations of $G$. The second one, we…
Let $c:\mathcal{G}\to\R$ be a cocycle on a locally compact Hausdorff groupoid $\mathcal{G}$ with Haar system. Under some mild conditions (satisfied by all integer valued cocycles on \'{e}tale groupoids), $c$ gives rise to an unbounded odd…
We prove many new cases of the Inverse Galois Problem for those simple groups arising from orthogonal groups over finite fields. For example, we show that the finite simple groups Omega_{2n+1}(p) and POmega_{4n}^+(p) both occur as the…
We describe subgroups and overgroups of the generalised Thompson groups $V_n$ which arise via conjugation by rational homeomorphisms of Cantor space. We specifically consider conjugating $V_n$ by homeomorphisms induced by synchronizing…
This paper investigates the $\mathrm{K}$-theory of twisted groupoid $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebras. It is shown that a homotopy of twists on an ample groupoid satisfying the Baum-Connes conjecture with coefficients gives rise to an isomorphism…
We describe new combinatorial methods for constructing an explicit free resolution of Z by ZG-modules when G is a group of fractions of a monoid where enough least common multiples exist (``locally Gaussian monoid''), and, therefore, for…
First and second fundamental theorems are given for polynomial invariants of a class of pseudo-reflection groups (including the Weyl groups of type $B_n$), under the assumption that the order of the group is invertible in the base field.…
