This article is an expository account of the theory of twisted commutative algebras, which simply put, can be thought of as a theory for handling commutative algebras with large groups of linear symmetries. Examples include the coordinate…
This is Part II of a series on noncompact isometry groups of Lorentz manifolds. We have introduced in Part I, a compactification of these isometry groups, and called ``bi-polarized'' those Lorentz manifolds having a ``trivial ''…
In this paper we generalize previous work on decomposition in three-dimensional orbifolds by 2-groups realized as analogues of central extensions, to orbifolds by more general 2-groups. We describe the computation of such orbifolds in…
We introduce bounded cohomology for (pairs of) groupoids and develop homological algebra to deal with it. We generalise results of Ivanov, Frigerio and Pagliantini to this setting and show that (under topological conditions) the bounded…
We consider noncommutative geometries obtained from a triangular Drinfeld twist. This allows to construct and study a wide class of noncommutative manifolds and their deformed Lie algebras of infinitesimal diffeomorphisms. This way symmetry…
A new functional model for pairs of commuting isometries is described. Intertwining operators between such models are then studied in order to approach the classification of invariant subspaces of such pairs.
Given a semisimple Frobenius manifold, we construct a class of integrable deformations of its hierarchy of topological type. We show that these integrable deformations have polynomial tau-structures, and conjecture that for the…
We classify conjugacy classes of involutions in the isometry groups of nondegenerate, symmetric bilinear forms over the field of two elements. The new component of this work focuses on the case of an orthogonal form on an even dimensional…
Using the Wold-von Neumann decomposition for the isometric covariant representations due to Muhly and Solel, we prove an explicit representation of the commutant of a doubly commuting pure isometric representation of the product system over…
We discuss a relation between bicomplexes and integrable models, and consider corresponding noncommutative (Moyal) deformations. As an example, a noncommutative version of a Toda field theory is presented.
While every matrix admits a singular value decomposition, in which the terms are pairwise orthogonal in a strong sense, higher-order tensors typically do not admit such an orthogonal decomposition. Those that do have attracted attention…
Let $n>1$ and let $\{U_{ij}\}_{1\leq i<j\leq n}$ be $n\choose 2$ commuting unitaries on a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$. Suppose $U_{ji}:=U^*_{ij}$, $1\leq i<j\leq n$. An n-tuple of power partial isometries $(V_1,...,V_n)$ on Hilbert space…
In this paper we study extensions of commuting tuples of symmetric and isometric operators to commuting tuples of self-adjoint and unitary operators. Some conditions which ensure the existence of such extensions are presented. A…
We present theoretical properties of the space of metric pairs equipped with the Gromov--Hausdorff distance. First, we establish the classical metric separability and the geometric geodesicity of this space. Second, we prove an…
We study orthogonal decompositions of symmetric and ordinary tensors using methods from linear algebra. For the field of real numbers we show that the sets of decomposable tensors can be defined be equations of degree 2. This gives a new…
We report on the following highlights from among the many discoveries made in Noncommutative Geometry since year 2000: 1) The interplay of the geometry with the modular theory for noncommutative tori, 2) Advances on the Baum-Connes…
It is conjectured that every cusped hyperbolic 3-manifold admits a geometric triangulation, i.e. it is decomposed into positive volume ideal hyperbolic tetrahedra. Here, we show that sufficiently highly twisted knots admit a geometric…
We introduce the notion of $*$-regular dilation for q-commuting tuples of contractions and generalize the results due to Gaspar-Suciu and Timotin on commuting contractions.
We construct explicit examples of half-sided modular inclusions ${\mathcal N}\subset{\mathcal M}$ of von Neumann algebras with trivial relative commutants. After stating a general criterion for triviality of the relative commutant in terms…
This paper mainly concerns the von Neumann algebras induced by a tuple of multiplication operators on Bergman spaces which arise essentially from holomorphic proper maps over higher dimensional domains. We study the structures and abelian…
