Let $\mathbf{G}$ be either a simple linear algebraic group over an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic or a quantum group at a root of unity. We define new classes of indecomposable $\mathbf{G}$-modules, which we call…

A Hilbert bimodule is a right Hilbert module X over a C*-algebra A together with a left action of A as adjointable operators on X. We consider families X = {X_s :s\in P} of Hilbert bimodules, indexed by a semigroup P, which are endowed with…

First of all, we recall the well known notion of semidirect product both for classical algebraic structures (like groups and rings) and for more recent ones (digroups, left skew braces, heaps, trusses). Then we analyse the concept of…

In this paper, we study bimodules over a von Neumann algebra $M$ in two related contexts. The first is an inclusion $M \subseteq M \rtimes_\alpha G$, where $G$ is a discrete group acting on a factor $M$ by outer automorphisms. The second is…

In this work we introduce the notions of Peiffer product and Peiffer commutator of internal pre-crossed modules over a fixed object B, extending the corresponding classical notions to any semi-abelian category C. We prove that, under mild…

The main goal of this note is to suggest an algebraic approach to the quasi-isometric classification of partially commutative groups (alias right-angled Artin groups). More precisely, we conjecture that if the partially commutative groups…

We show that in Grayson's model of higher algebraic $K$-theory using binary acyclic complexes, the complexes of length two suffice to generate the whole group. Moreover, we prove that the comparison map from Nenashev's model for $K_1$ to…

Given a labeling c of the edges of a directed graph E by elements of a discrete group G, one can form a skew-product graph E cross_c G. We show, using the universal properties of the various constructions involved, that there is a coaction…

A product system E over a semigroup P is a family of Hilbert spaces {E_s:s\in P} together with multiplications E_s \times E_t\to E_{st}. We view E as a unitary- valued cocycle on P, and consider twisted crossed products A \times_{\beta,E} P…

We extend the class of abelian groups for which a conjecture of Asai and Yoshida on the number of crossed homomorphisms holds. We also prove a general result which connects certain problems concerning divisibility in groups to the…

We define smooth generalized crossed products and prove six-term exact sequences of Pimsner-Voiculescu type. This sequence may, in particular, be applied to smooth subalgebras of the Quantum Heisenberg Manifolds in order to compute the…

One of pressing problems in mathematical physics is to find a generalized Poincar\'e symmetry that could be applied to nonflat space-times. As a step in this direction we define the semidirect product of groupoids $\Gamma_0 \rtimes…

We study partial actions of exact discrete groups on C*-algebras. We show that the partial crossed product of a commutative C*-algebra by an exact discrete group is nuclear whenever the full and reduced partial crossed products coincide.…

We introduce a notion of c-group, which is a group up to congruence relation and consider the corresponding category. Extensions, actions and crossed modules (c-crossed modules) are defined in this category and the semi-direct product is…

We describe the $C^*$-algebra of an $E$-unitary or strongly 0-$E$-unitary inverse semigroup as the partial crossed product of a commutative $C^*$-algebra by the maximal group image of the inverse semigroup. We give a similar result for the…

We consider a family of Hecke C*-algebras which can be realised as crossed products by semigroups of endomorphisms. We show by dilating representations of the semigroup crossed product that the category of representations of the Hecke…

In [J. of Alg. 369: 70-95, 2012], the authors constructed a seven term exact sequence in the cohomology of a group extension G of a normal subgroup N by a quotient group Q with coefficients in a G-module M. However, they were unable to…

We investigate ternary products of groupoids and prove that there is a one-to-one correspondence between the collection of right modular groupoids with a left identity element l and laterally commutative, l-bi-unital semiheaps. This result…

We present a geometrically oriented classification theory for non-Abelian extensions of groupoids generalizing the classification theory for Abelian extensions of groupoids by Westman as well as the familiar classification theory for…

For a free partial action of a group in a set we realize the associated partial skew group ring as an algebra of functions with finite support over an equivalence relation and we use this result to characterize the ideals in the partial…
