We study bounded actions of groups and semigroups $G$ on exact sequences of Banach spaces from the point of view of quasilinear maps, characterize the actions on the twisted sum space by commutator estimates and introduce the associated…

Let $X$ be a proper CAT($0$) space and $G$ a cocompact group of isometries of $X$ without fixed point at infinity. We prove that if $\partial X$ contains an invariant subset of circumradius $\pi/2$, then $X$ contains a quasi-dense, closed…

We show that if $G$ is a finitely generated group such that its profinite completion $\widehat{G}$ is ``far from being projective'' (that is the kernel of the universal Frattini cover of $\widehat{G}$ is not a small profinite group), then…

If K is a discrete group and Z is a K-spectrum, then the homotopy fixed point spectrum Z^{hK} is Map_*(EK_+, Z)^K, the fixed points of a familiar expression. Similarly, if G is a profinite group and X is a discrete G-spectrum, then X^{hG}…

The mapping class group $\mathrm{Mod}_{g, 1}$ of a surface with one marked point can be identified with an index two subgroup of $\mathrm{Aut}(\pi_1 \Sigma_g)$. For a surface of genus $g \geq 2$, we show that any action of $\mathrm{Mod}_{g,…

For any finite group G we define the moduli space of pointed admissible G-covers and the concept of a G-equivariant cohomological field theory (G-CohFT), which, when G is the trivial group, reduce to the moduli space of stable curves and a…

In this paper, we show that if a group acts isometrically on a good hyperbolic space of finite volume entropy through a non-elementary action, then it admits an affine action on some $L^p$ -space with an unbounded orbit for sufficiently…

Let $G$ be a compact Hausdorff topological group acting on a compact Hausdorff topological space $X$. Within the $C^{*}$-algebra $C(X)$ of all continuous complex-valued functions on $X$, there is the Peter-Weyl algebra $\mathcal{P}_G(X)$…

In this article, we introduce the concept of partial actions of a group $G$ on quivers and demonstrate that for any given partial action of G on a quiver $\Gamma$, there exists another quiver, $\Gamma'$ with a full $G$-action. This is an…

Let a countable amenable group $G$ act on a \zd\ compact metric space $X$. For two clopen subsets $\mathsf A$ and $\mathsf B$ of $X$ we say that $\mathsf A$ is \emph{subequivalent} to $\mathsf B$ (we write $\mathsf A\preccurlyeq \mathsf…

We study the actions of a Lie group $G$ by birationally extendible automorphisms on a domain $D\subset C^n$. For a large class of such domains defined by polynomial inequalities, all automorphisms are of this type. In the cases 1) $G$ has…

For a proper, cocompact action by a locally compact group of the form $H \times G$, with $H$ compact, we define an $H \times G$-equivariant index of $H$-transversally elliptic operators, which takes values in $KK_*(C^*H, C^*G)$. This…

A topological group G is profinite if it is compact and totally disconnected. Equivalently, G is the inverse limit of a surjective system of finite groups carrying the discrete topology. We discuss how to represent a countably based…

We study the locus of fixed points of a torus action on a GIT quotient of a complex vector space by a reductive complex algebraic group which acts linearly. We show that, under the assumption that $G$ acts freely on the stable locus, the…
