We investigate the notion of relatively amenable topological action and show that the action of Thompson's group $T$ on $S^1$ is relatively amenable with respect to Thompson's group $F$. We use this to conclude that $F$ is exact if and only…

For virtual knot theory, the virtual braid group was defined by generalizing the braid group. It was proved that any virtual link can be obtained by the closure of a virtual braid. On the other hand, due to work by Jones et al., it is known…

T-positive links form a subset of strongly quasipositive links that strictly contains the set of all non-split braid positive links. Analogous to Baader's characterisation of positive links as precisely the strongly quasipositive and…

We classify positive transversal torus knots in tight contact structures up to transversal isotopy.

As an extension of positive or almost positive diagrams and links, we introduce a notion of successively almost positive diagrams and links, and good successively almost positive diagrams and links. We review various properties of positive…

We specify the structure of completely positive operators and quantum Markov semigroup generators that are symmetric with respect to a family of inner products, also providing new information on the order strucure an extreme points in some…

We prove that $\Theta$-positive representations of fundamental groups of surfaces (possibly cusped or of infinite type) satisfy a collar lemma, and their associated cross-ratios are positive. As a consequence we deduce that…

We give sufficient conditions for left- and bi-orderability of fundamental groups of Ore categories in terms of indirect factors, including Thompson groups and many of their generalizations. Besides recovering known results, we prove that…

We show that positive elements with respect to the twisted convolutions, belonging to some ultra-test function space of certain order at origin, belong to the ultra-test function space of the same order everywhere. We apply the result to…

We propose a new unified framework for Thompson-like groups using a well-known device called operads and category theory as language. We discuss examples of operad groups which have appeared in the literature before. As a first application,…

In this note, a new proof for the positivity of Dunkl's intertwining operator in the crystallographic case is given. It is based on an asymptotic relationship between the Opdam-Cherednik kernel and the Dunkl kernel as recently observed by…

We prove that under two natural probabilistic models (studied by Cleary, Elder, Rechnitzer and Taback), the probability that a random pair of elements of Thompson's group $F$ generate the entire group is positive. We also prove that for any…

We show that R. Thompson's group $T$ is a maximal subgroup of the group $V$. The argument provides examples of foundational calculations which arise when expressing elements of $V$ as products of transpositions of basic clopen sets in…

We prove the orderability of the Witzel-Zaremsky-Thompson group for a direct system of orderable groups under a certain compatibility assumption.

Twisted torus links are given by twisting a subset of strands on a closed braid representative of a torus link. T--links are a natural generalization, given by repeated positive twisting. We establish a one-to-one correspondence between…

A proof of Thompson's conjecture for real semi-simple Lie groups has been given by Kapovich, Millson, and Leeb. In this note, we give another proof of the conjecture by using a theorem of Alekseev, Meinrenken, and Woodward from symplectic…

Using Morse theory and a new relative homological linking of pairs, we prove a ``homological linking principle'', thereby generalizing many well known results in critical point theory.

In 2014 Jones showed how to associate links in the $3$-sphere to elements of Thompson's group $F$. We provide an analogue of this program for annular links and Thompson's group $T$. The main result is that any edge-signed graph embedded in…

We present new conditions for semigroups of positive operators to converge strongly as time tends to infinity. Our proofs are based on a novel approach combining the well-known splitting theorem by Jacobs, de Leeuw and Glicksberg with a…

We prove that transverse links in any contact manifold $(M,\xi)$ can be realized as a sub-binding of a compatible open book decomposition. We define the support genus of a transverse link and prove that the support genus of a transverse…
