This paper discusses `geometric property (T)'. This is a property of metric spaces introduced in earlier work of the authors for its applications to K-theory. Geometric property (T) is a strong form of `expansion property': in particular…

In this series of papers, we study correspondence between the following: (1) large scale structure of the metric space bigsqcup_m {Cay(G(m))} consisting of Cayley graphs of finite groups with k generators; (2) structure of groups which…

We prove that every sofic approximation of a property (T) group is approximately isomorphic to one having geometric property (T), and more generally, a box space of graphs which has boundary geometric property (T) is approximately…

We characterise Geometric Property (T) by the existence of a certain projection in the maximal uniform Roe algebra $C_{u,\max}^*(X)$, extending the notion of Kazhdan projection for groups to the realm of metric spaces. We also describe this…

We introduce a notion of topological property (T) for \'etale groupoids. This simultaneously generalizes Kazhdan's property (T) for groups and geometric property (T) for coarse spaces. One main goal is to use this property (T) to prove the…

Property A introduced by Guoliang Yu is an amenability-type property for metric spaces. In this article, we study property A for uniformly locally finite coarse spaces. Main examples of coarse spaces are a metric space, a set equipped with…

Recent research in coarse geometry revealed similarities between certain concepts of analysis, large scale geometry, and topology. Property A of G.Yu is the coarse analog of amenability for groups and its generalization (exact spaces) was…

In this paper, we introduce a notion of geometric Banach property (T) for metric spaces, which jointly generalizes Banach property (T) for groups and geometric property (T) for metric spaces. Our framework is achieved by Banach…

We introduce a generalization for bounded geometry that we call bounded scale measure. We show that bounded scale measure is a coarse invariant unlike bounded geometry. We then show equivalent definitions for spaces with bounded scale…

We give a characterization of geometric property (T) for a coarse disjoint union of finite graphs with bounded degree using the idea of noncommutative real algebraic geometry. In the proof, we define a $*$-subalgebra $I_u[X]$ of real…

D. A. Kahzdan first put forth property (T) in relation to the study of discrete subgroups of Lie groups of finite co-volume. Through a combinatorial approach, we define an analogue of property (T) for regular graphs. We then prove the basic…

In this paper, we study the geometric property (T) for discretized warped cones of an action on a compact Lie group $M$ by its finitely generated subgroup. We show that if a subgroup $G$ is dense in $M$, then the associated discretized…

For uniformly dicrete metric spaces without bounded geometry we suggest a modified version of property A based on metrics of bounded geometry greater than the given metric. We show that this version still implies coarse embeddability in…

We expose a class of discrete metric spaces, for which bounded geometry is equivalent to the property A of G. Yu. This class includes the coarse disjoint union of $(\mathbb Z/2\mathbb Z)^n$, $n\in\mathbb N$, and consists of spaces of simple…

We propose a description of T-duality between general geometric and non-geometric backgrounds as higher groupoid bundles with connections. Our description extends the previous observation by Nikolaus and Waldorf that the topological aspects…

In this paper, the second of a series of two, we continue the study of higher index theory for expanders. We prove that if a sequence of graphs has girth tending to infinity, then the maximal coarse Baum-Connes assembly map is an…

Property A is a geometric property originally introduced for discrete metric spaces to provide a sufficient condition for coarse embeddability into Hilbert space, and it is defined via a F\o{}lner condition similar in spirit to the…

A geometric conception is a method of a geometry construction. The Riemannian geometric conception and a new T-geometric one are considered. T-geometry is built only on the basis of information included in the metric (distance between two…

The tubular geometry (T-geometry) is a generalization of the proper Euclidean geometry, founded on the property of sigma-immanence. The proper Euclidean geometry can be described completely in terms of the world function $\sigma =\rho…

For an arbitrary discrete probability-measure-preserving groupoid $G$, we provide a characterization of property (T) for $G$ in terms of the groupoid von Neumann algebra $L(G)$. More generally, we obtain a characterization of relative…
