We introduce and study a new Banach algebra structure on the trace-zero subspace $\mathcal{T}(L^2(\mathbb{G}))_0$ of trace class operators for any locally compact quantum group $\mathbb{G}$; it is defined through a mixed Lie-type product of…
Given a finite group $G$ and an extension of finite chain rings $S|R$, one can consider the group rings $\mathscr{S} = S[G]$ and $\mathscr{R} = R[G]$. The group ring $\mathscr{S}$ can be viewed as an $R$-bimodule, and any of its…
By [6], a minimal group $G$ is called $z$-minimal if $G/Z(G)$ is minimal. In this paper, we present the $z$-Minimality Criterion for dense subgroups with some applications to topological matrix groups. For a locally compact group $G$, let…
A locally compact group $G$ is called Hermitian if the spectrum $\text{Sp}_{L^1(G)}(f)\subseteq\mathbb R$ for every $f\in L^1(G)$ satisfying $f=f^*$, and called quasi-Hermitian if $\text{Sp}_{L^1(G)}(f)\subseteq\mathbb R$ for every $f\in…
Let G be a locally compact group and rho a non-unitary finite dimensional representation of G. We consider tensor products of rho by some unitary representations of G in order to define two Banach algebras analogous to the group…
If $G$ is a locally compact group, $CD(G)$ the algebra of convolution dominated operators on $L^2(G)$ then an important question is: Is $\mathbb{C}1+CD(G)$ (respectively $CD(G)$ if $G$ is discrete) inverse-closed in the bounded operators on…
Let $G$ be a group and let $\rho\colon G\to\operatorname{Sym}(V)$ be a permutation representation of $G$ on a set $V$. We prove that there is a faithful $G$-coalgebra $C$ such that $G$ arises as the image of the restriction of…
Let G be a group which is topologically a CW-complex, BG a classifying space for G, and A a discrete abelian group. To a central extension of G by A, one can associate a cohomology class in $H^2(BG,A)$. We show this association is…
Let H be a group obtained from a group G by adding one generator and one relator which is a proper power of a unimodular word. The main aim of this paper is to prove that G is a malnormal subgroup of H. This implies that if G is a…
Let $G$ be a group. We denote by $\nu(G)$ a certain extension of the non-abelian tensor square $G \otimes G$ by $G \times G$. In this paper we prove that the derived subgroup $\nu(G)'$ is a central product of three normal subgroups of…
Three separation properties for a closed subgroup $H$ of a locally compact group $G$ are studied: (1) the existence of a bounded approximate indicator for $H$, (2) the existence of a completely bounded invariant projection of…
In this paper we study various convolution-type algebras associated with a locally compact quantum group from cohomological and geometrical points of view. The quantum group duality endows the space of trace class operators over a locally…
The Banach algebra LUC(G)* associated to a topological group G has been of interest in abstract harmonic analysis. A number of authors have studied the topological centre of LUC(G)*, which is defined as the set of elements in LUC(G)* for…
We show that the finitely generated simple left orderable groups $G_{\rho}$ constructed by the first two authors in arXiv:1807.06478 are uniformly perfect - each element in the group can be expressed as a product of three commutators of…
Conformal inclusions of chiral conformal field theories, or more generally inclusions of quantum field theories, are described in the von Neumann algebraic setting by nets of subfactors, possibly with infinite Jones index if one takes…
We show that a compact group $G$ has finite conjugacy classes, i.e., is an FC-group if and only if its center $Z(G)$ is open if and only if its commutator subgroup $G'$ is finite. Let $d(G)$ denote the Haar measure of the set of all pairs…
We introduce an appropriate notion of inner amenability for locally compact quantum groups, study its basic properties, related notions, and examples arising from the bicrossed product construction. We relate these notions to homological…
If $G$ acts on a $C^*$-correspondence ${\mathcal H}$, then by the universal property $G$ acts on the Cuntz-Pimsner algebra ${\mathcal O}_{\mathcal H}$ and we study the crossed product ${\mathcal O}_{\mathcal H}\rtimes G$ and the fixed point…
According to Comfort, Raczkowski and Trigos-Arrieta, a dense subgroup D of a compact abelian group G determines G if the restriction homomorphism G^ --> D^ of the dual groups is a topological isomorphism. We introduce four conditions on D…
We study finite groups $G$ with elements $g$ such that $\lvert \mathbf{C}_G(g)\rvert = \lvert G:G' \rvert$. (Such elements generalize fixed-point-free automorphisms of finite groups.) We show that these groups have a unique conjugacy class…
