Proposing a certain category of bialgebroid maps we show that the balanced depth 2 extensions appear as they were the finitary Galois extensions in the context of quantum groupoid actions, i.e., actions by finite bialgebroids, weak…
In this article we introduce and study a natural form of expansivity, that we call \textit{metric-independent expansiveness}, for group actions on metrizable spaces. This notion means \textit{expansive with respect to every compatible…
We consider endomorphism actions of arbitrary discrete semigroups on a connected metrizable topological group G. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for expansiveness of such actions when G is a Lie group or a compact…
We study extensions of double groupoids in the sense of \cite{AN2} and show some classical results of group theory extensions in the case of double groupoids. For it, given a double groupoid $(\mathcal{B}; \mathcal{V},\mathcal{H};…
We investigate the dynamics of forward or backward self-similar systems (iterated function systems) and the topological structure of their invariant sets. We define a new cohomology theory (interaction cohomology) for forward or backward…
We study the topology of circularly ordered sets. While the algebraic notion is classical, the general topological theory has received comparatively little attention. In this work we provide a self-contained topological exposition and…
In this paper, we construct a semigroup associated to an action of countable discrete group on a compact Hausdorff space, that can be regarded as a higher dimensional generalization of the type semigroup. Using this generalized type…
We study the geometry and dynamics of discrete infinite covolume subgroups of higher rank semisimple Lie groups. We introduce and prove the equivalence of several conditions, capturing "rank one behavior'' of discrete subgroups of higher…
Let $G$ be a compact Lie group. We introduce a semiclassical framework, called Borel-Weil calculus, to investigate $G$-equivariant (pseudo)differential operators acting on $G$-principal bundles over closed manifolds. In this calculus, the…
In this paper we develop a systematic theory of compact operator semigroups on locally convex vector spaces. In particular we prove new and generalized versions of the mean ergodic theorem and apply them to different notions of mean…
This is a survey of the recent development of the study of topological full groups of etale groupoids on the Cantor set. Etale groupoids arise from dynamical systems, e.g. actions of countable discrete groups, equivalence relations. Minimal…
Given a compact, connected Lie group $K$, we use principal $K$-bundles to construct manifolds with prescribed finite-dimensional algebraic models. Conversely, let $M$ be a compact, connected, smooth manifold which supports an almost free…
In this paper, we consider semigroup actions of discrete countable semigroups on compact spaces by surjective local homeomorphisms. We introduce notions of continuous one-sided orbit equivalence and continuous orbit equivalence for…
An isometric compact group action $G \times (M,g) \rightarrow (M,g)$ is called polar if there exists a closed embedded submanifold $\Sigma \subseteq M$ which meets all orbits orthogonally. Let $\Pi$ be the associated generalized Weyl group.…
We build a bridge between geometric group theory and topological dynamical systems by establishing a dictionary between coarse equivalence and continuous orbit equivalence. As an application, we give conceptual explanations for previous…
A multiplicatively closed, horizontal foliation on a Lie groupoid may be viewed as a "pseudoaction" on the base manifold $M$. A pseudoaction generates a pseudogroup of transformations of $M$ in the same way an ordinary Lie group action…
A dynamical version of the Bourgain-Fremlin-Talagrand dichotomy shows that the enveloping semigroup of a dynamical system is either very large and contains a topological copy of the Stone-Cech compactification of the natural numbers, or it…
A dynamical version of the Bourgain-Fremlin-Talagrand dichotomy shows that the enveloping semigroup of a dynamical system is either very large and contains a topological copy of $\beta \N$, or it is a "tame" topological space whose topology…
We introduce the notion of \emph{topo-symmetric extensions} of topological groups, a new generalization of classical group extensions that incorporates both topological and symmetry constraints. We define morphisms between such extensions,…
We show that a non-expansive action of a topological semigroup S on a metric space X is linearizable iff its orbits are bounded. The crucial point here is to prove that X can be extended by adding a fixed point of S, thus allowing…
