In this paper by using the ring of real-valued continuous functions $C(X)$, we prove a theorem in profinite spaces which states that for a compact Hausdorff space $X$, the set of its connected components $X/_{\sim}$ endowed with some…

For a profinite group, we construct a model structure on profinite spaces and profinite spectra with a continuous action. This yields descent spectral sequences for the homotopy groups of homotopy fixed point space and for stable homotopy…

Let $\Gamma\curvearrowright (X,\mu)$ be a measure preserving action of a countable group $\Gamma$ on a standard probability space $(X,\mu)$. We prove that if the action $\Gamma\curvearrowright X$ is not profinite and satisfies a certain…

We describe the envelope C*-algebra associated to a partial action of a countable discrete group on a locally compact space as a groupoid C*-algebra (more precisely as a C*-algebra from an equivalence relation) and we use our approach to…

Let $G$ be a group and let $K$ be a commensurated subgroup of $G$. Then there is a totally disconnected, locally compact (t.d.l.c.) group $\hat{G}_K$ that contains the profinite completion of $K$ as an open compact subgroup and also…

Given a partial action of a topological group $G$ on a space $X$, we determine properties $\mathcal P$ which can be extended from $X$ to its globalization. We treat the cases when $\mathcal P$ is any of the following: Hausdorff, regular,…

We prove a compactness result for classes of actions of many small categories on quantum compact metric spaces by Lipschitz linear maps, for the topology of the covariant Gromov-Hausdorff propinquity. In particular, our result applies to…

A group $G$ is said to have restricted centralizers if for each $g$ in $G$ the centralizer $C_G(g)$ either is finite or has finite index in $G$. Shalev showed that a profinite group with restricted centralizers is virtually abelian. Given a…

We contribute some information towards finding a general algorithm for constructing, for a given profinite group, $G$, a compact connected space, $X$, such that the full homeomorphism group, $H(X)$, with the compact-open topology is…

Let X be a Hausdorff topological group and G a locally compact subgroup of X. We show that the natural action of G on X is proper in the sense of R. Palais. This is applied to prove that there exists a closed set F of X such that FG=X and…

Let $X$ be an algebraic variety over $\mathbb{C}$ and $G$ be an algebraic group acting on $X$ whose action is closed. J. Poineau defined a compactification $X^\urcorner$ of $X(\mathbb{C})$ by using hybrid Berkovich spaces. We will focus on…

We prove that all the compact metric spaces are in the closure of the class of full matrix algebras for the quantum Gromov-Hausdorff propinquity. We also show that given an action of a compact metrizable group G on a quasi-Leibniz compact…

For a discrete metric space (or more generally a large scale space) $X$ and an action of a group $G$ on $X$ by coarse equivalences, we define a type of coarse quotient space $X_G$, which agrees up to coarse equivalence with the orbit space…

Among compact Hausdorff groups G whose maximal profinite quotient is finitely generated, we characterize those that possess a proper dense normal subgroup. We also prove that the abstract commutator subgroup [H,G] is closed for every closed…

A group $G$ is said to have restricted centralizers if for each $g \in G$ the centralizer $C_G(g)$ either is finite or has finite index in $G$. Shalev showed that a profinite group with restricted centralizers is virtually abelian. We take…

Let $\mathfrak C$ be a class of finite groups which is closed for subgroups, quotients and direct products. Given a profinite group $G$ and an element $x\in G$, we denote by $P_{\mathfrak{C}}(x,G)$ the probability that $x$ and a randomly…

Let G be a group and let M be a CAT(0) proper metric space (e.g. a simply connected complete Riemannian manifold of non-positive sectional curvature or a locally finite tree). Isometric actions of G on M are (by definition) points in the…

We show that, given a compact Hausdorff space $\Omega$, there is a compact group ${\mathbb G}$ and a homeomorphic embedding of $\Omega$ into ${\mathbb G}$, such that the restriction map ${\rm A}({\mathbb G})\to C(\Omega)$ is a complete…

A group $G$ is said to have restricted centralizers if for every $x\in G$ the centralizer $C_G(x)$ either is finite or has finite index in $G$. Shalev showed that a profinite group with restricted centralizers is virtually abelian. Here we…

For a profinite group $G$, we define an $S[[G]]$-module to be a certain type of $G$-spectrum $X$ built from an inverse system $\{X_i\}_i$ of $G$-spectra, with each $X_i$ naturally a $G/N_i$-spectrum, where $N_i$ is an open normal subgroup…
