We study smooth actions by lattices in higher-rank simple Lie groups. Assuming one element of the action acts with positive topological entropy, we prove a number of new rigidity results. For lattices in $\mathrm{SL}(n,\mathbb{R})$ acting…

This paper gives an algebraic characterization of expansive actions of countable abelian groups on compact abelian groups. This naturally extends the classification of expansive algebraic $\mathbb{Z}^d$-actions given by Schmidt using…

We prove an entropy formula for certain expansive actions of a countable discrete residually finite group $\Gamma $ by automorphisms of compact abelian groups in terms of Fuglede-Kadison determinants. This extends an earlier result proved…

We develop entropy and variance results for the product of independent identically distributed random variables on Lie groups. Our results apply to the study of stationary measures in various contexts.

The study of the relation between Lie algebras and groups, and especially the derivation of new algebras from them, is a problem of great interest in mathematics and physics, because finding a new Lie group from an already known one also…

We present a new approach to the proof of ergodic theorems for actions of free groups based on geometric covering and asymptotic invariance arguments. Our approach can be viewed as a direct generalization of the classical geometric covering…

A Poisson-Lie group acting by the coadjoint action on the dual of its Lie algebra induces on it a non-trivial class of quadratic Poisson structures extending the linear Poisson bracket on the coadjoint orbits.

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…

In this paper, we shall introduce $h$-expansiveness and asymptotical $h$-expansiveness for actions of sofic groups. By the definitions, each $h$-expansive action of sofic groups is asymptotically $h$-expansive. We show that each expansive…

We consider some special type extensions of an arbitrary Lie algebra, which we call universal extensions. We show that these extensions are in one-to-one correspondence with finite dimensional associative commutative algebras. We also…

Let G be a Lie group over a local field of positive characteristic which admits a contractive automorphism f (i.e., the forward iterates f^n(x) of each group element x converge to the neutral element 1). We show that then G is a torsion…

A pro-Lie group is a projective limit of a family of finite-dimensional Lie groups. In this note we show that a pro-Lie group $G$ is a Lie group in the sense that its topology is compatible with a smooth manifold structure for which the…
