This monograph introduces a framework for genuine proper equivariant stable homotopy theory for Lie groups. The adjective `proper' alludes to the feature that equivalences are tested on compact subgroups, and that the objects are built from…

Let $\Gamma'<\Gamma$ be two discrete groups acting properly by isometries on a Gromov-hyperbolic space $X$. We prove that their critical exponents coincide if and only if $\Gamma'$ is co-amenable in $\Gamma$, under the assumption that the…

We investigate when Isomorphism Conjectures, such as the ones due to Baum-Connes, Bost and Farrell-Jones, are stable under colimits of groups over directed sets (with not necessarily injective structure maps). We show in particular that…

In this paper, we investigate the $L^{p}$ coarse Baum-Connes conjecture for $p\in [1,\infty)$ via $C_{0}$ coarse structure, which is a refinement of the bounded coarse structure on a metric space. We prove that the $C_{0}$ version of the…

Given a graph $\Gamma$, one may conside the set $X$ of its vertices as a metric space by assuming that all edges have length one. We consider two versions of homology theory of $\Gamma$ and their $K$-theory counterparts -- the $K$-theory of…

The goal of this article is to provide a bridge between the gamma element method for the Baum--Connes conjecture (the Dirac dual-Dirac method) and the controlled algebraic approach of Roe and Yu (localization algebras). For any second…

We prove that amenability of a discrete group is equivalent to dimension flatness of certain ring inclusions naturally associated with measure preserving actions of the group. This provides a group-measure space theoretic solution to a…

For a proper action by a locally compact group $G$ on a manifold $M$ with a $G$-equivariant Spin-structure, we obtain obstructions to the existence of complete $G$-invariant Riemannian metrics with uniformly positive scalar curvature. We…

An action of a compact quantum group on a compact metric space $(X,d)$ is (D)-isometric if the distance function is preserved by a diagonal action on $X\times X$. We show that an isometric action in this sense has the following additional…

Between the category of exact metric spaces with bounded geometry (about which much is known) and the larger category of arbitrary exact metric spaces (about which little is known) lies the intermediate category of asymptotically exact…

An equivariant map queer Lie superalgebra is the Lie superalgebra of regular maps from an algebraic variety (or scheme) $X$ to a queer Lie superalgebra $\mathfrak{q}$ that are equivariant with respect to the action of a finite group…

In this thesis, we investigate the proof of the Baum-Connes Conjecture with Coefficients for a-$T$-menable groups. We will mostly and essentially follow the argument employed by N. Higson and G. Kasparov in the paper [Nigel Higson and…

The statements of Main~Theorem~1.1 and Theorem~2.1 of the author's paper [\emph{Trans.\ Amer.\ Math.\ Soc.}\ {\bf 345} (1994) 577--594] should assume that $\Gamma $~is discrete and $G$~is connected. (Cors.~1.3, 5.6, and~5.8 are affected…

Let $X=G/K$ be an irreducible Hermitian symmetric space of the non-compact type and let $S\in G^\mbb{C}$ be the associated compression semi-group. Let $\Gamma$ be a discrete subgroup of $G$. We give a sufficient condition for…

We prove the existence of a quantum isometry groups for new classes of metric spaces: (i) geodesic metrics for compact connected Riemannian manifolds (possibly with boundary) and (ii) metric spaces admitting a uniformly distributed…

Let $X$ be a compact Hausdorff space, let $\Gamma$ be a discrete group that acts continuously on $X$ from the right, define $\widetilde{X} = \{(x,\gamma) \in X \times \Gamma : x\cdot\gamma= x\}$, and let $\Gamma$ act on $\widetilde{X}$ via…

There are several characterizations of coarse embeddability of a discrete metric space into a Hilbert space. In this note we give such characterizations for general metric spaces. By applying these results to the spaces $L_p(\mu)$, we get…

We show that, for uniformly locally finite metric spaces $X$ and $Y$ with isomorphic uniform Roe algebras $C^*_u(X)$ and $C^*_u(Y)$, the existence of a bijective coarse equivalence $f \colon X \to Y$ is equivalent to the injectivity of the…

We obtain the equivariant K-homology of the classifying space \underline{E}W for W a right-angled or, more generally, an even Coxeter group. The key result is a formula for the relative Bredon homology of \underline{E}W in terms of Coxeter…

A general fixed point theorem for isometries in terms of metric functionals is proved under the assumption of the existence of a conical bicombing. It is new even for isometries of Banach spaces as well as for non-locally compact…
