For a topological monoid S the dual inverse monoid is the topological monoid of all identity preserving homomorphisms from S to the circle with attached zero. A topological monoid S is defined to be reflexive if the canonical homomorphism…
Using the ideas of E.I. Gordon we present and farther advance an approach, based on nonstandard analysis, to simultaneous approximations of locally compact abelian groups and their duals by (hyper)finite abelian groups, as well as to…
Noncommutative duality for C*-dynamical systems is a vast generalization of Pontryagin duality for locally compact abelian groups. In this series of lectures, we give an introduction to the categorical aspects of this duality, focusing…
Gao and Jackson showed that any countable Borel equivalence relation (CBER) induced by a countable abelian Polish group is hyperfinite. This prompted Hjorth to ask if this is in fact true for all CBERs classifiable by (uncountable) abelian…
We show that all non-trivial continuous endomorphisms of the circle group are topologically mixing. We also show that there exists a large infinite class of continuous endomorphisms of any n-dimensional torus group which are topologically…
While there is a well-established notion of what a computable ordinal is, the question which functions on the countable ordinals ought to be computable has received less attention so far. We propose a notion of computability on the space of…
We prove that no quantifier-free formula in the language of group theory can define the $\aleph_1$-half graph in a Polish group, thus generalising some results from [6]. We then pose some questions on the space of groups of automorphisms of…
In this article we establish some results that allow to deduce the continuity of homomorphisms of (topological) abelian groups from commutative diagrams. In particular, we present a new topological version of the classical Five-Lemma. These…
Let G be a Roelcke-precompact non-archimedean Polish group, B(G) the algebra of matrix coefficients of G arising from its continuous unitary representations. The Gel'fand spectrum H(G) of the norm closure of B(G) is known as the Hilbert…
In this work we extend classical structure and duality results in Gabor analysis on the euclidean space to the setting of second countable locally compact abelian (LCA) groups. We formulate the concept of rationally oversampling of Gabor…
Multimarginal optimal transport (MOT) has gained increasing attention in recent years, notably due to its relevance in machine learning and statistics, where one seeks to jointly compare and align multiple probability distributions. This…
In his PhD Thesis Konstantinos Beros proved a number of results about compactly generated subgroups of Polish groups. Such a group is K-sigma - the countable union of compact sets. He notes that the group of rationals under addition with…
Double coverings of the orthogonal groups of the real and complex spaces are considered. The relation between discrete transformations of these spaces and fundamental automorphisms of Clifford algebras is established, where an isomorphism…
If k is an arbitrary field, we construct a category of k-1-motives in which every commutative algebraic k-group G has a dual object $G^{\vee}$. When k is a local field of arbitrary characteristic, we establish Pontryagin duality theorems…
We investigate the electromagnetic duality properties of an abelian gauge theory on a compact oriented four-manifold by analysing the behaviour of a generalised partition function under modular transformations of the dimensionless coupling…
According to Kirillov's theory, the construction of a unitary irreducible representation of a nilpotent Lie group requires a precise computation of some polarizing subalgebra subordinated to a linear functional in the linear dual of the…
We perform a general study of the structure of locally compact modules over compactly generated abelian groups. We obtain a devissage result for such modules of the form "compact-by-sheer-by-discrete", and then study more specifically the…
We give, for some Borel sets of a product of two Polish spaces, including the Borel sets with countable sections, a Hurewicz-like characterization of those which cannot become a transfinite difference of open sets by changing the two Polish…
We compute explicitly the group of connected components $\pi_0G(\mathbb{R})$ of the real Lie group $G(\mathbb{R})$ for an arbitrary (not necessarily linear) connected algebraic group $G$ defined over the field $\mathbb{R}$ of real numbers.…
Let $\Gamma$ be a countable discrete group, and let $\pi\colon \Gamma\to {\rm{GL}}(H)$ be a representation of $\Gamma$ by invertible operators on a separable Hilbert space $H$. We show that the semidirect product group…
