A sequence $(a_{n}) $ in an Abelian group is called a $T$-sequence if there exists a Hausdorff group topology on $G$ in which $(a_{n}) $ converges to $0$. For a $T$-sequence $(a_{n}) $, $\tau_{(a_{n}) } $ denotes the strongest group…
A discrete group $\Gamma$ is called exact if the reduced group C*-algebra ${C_{\lambda}}^{*}(\Gamma)$ is exact as C*-algebras, and a discrete group $\Lambda$ is called residually exact if every nonunital element $g \in \Lambda$ admits a…
Let $A$ be a separable amenable $C^*$-algebra and $B$ a non-unital and $\sigma$-unital simple $C^*$-algebra with continuous scale ($B$ need not be stable). We classify, up to unitary equivalence, all essential extensions of the form $0…
We extend the theory of tensor products of C*-algebras to the larger category of Fell bundles over locally compact groups. We prove that, like in the case of C*-algebras, there exist maximal and minimal tensor products. Given two Fell…
Let $C$ be a unital AH-algebra and $A$ be a unital simple C*-algebra with tracial rank zero. It has been shown that two unital monomorphisms $\phi, \psi: C\to A$ are approximately unitarily equivalent if and only if $$ [\phi]=[\psi] {\rm…
By an $\ell$-group $G$ we mean a lattice-ordered abelian group. This paper is concerned with the category $\FP$ of finitely presented {\it unital} $\ell$-groups, those $\ell$-groups having a distinguished order-unit $u$. Using the duality…
Let $H$ be an infinite dimensional separable Hilbert space, $B(H)$ the $C^*$-algebra of all bounded linear operators on $H,$ $U(B(H))$ the unitary group of $B(H)$ and ${\cal K}\subset B(H)$ the ideal of compact operators. Let $G$ be a…
We establish a criterion for when an abelian extension of infinite-dimensional Lie algebras integrates to a corresponding Lie group extension $\hat{G}$ of $G$ by $A$, where $G$ is a connected, simply connected Lie group and $A$ is a…
An expansion set is a set $\mathcal{B}$ such that each $b \in \mathcal{B}$ is equipped with a set of expansions $\mathcal{E}(b)$. The theory of expansion sets offers a systematic approach to the construction of classifying spaces for…
This is the second in a series of papers about torsion-free groups which act properly and cocompactly on a CAT(0) metric space with isolated flats and relatively thin triangles. Our approach is to adapt the methods of Sela and others for…
Arakeljan's Theorem provides conditions on a relatively closed subset $F$ of a domain $G\subset\mathbb{C}$, such that any continuous function $f:F\rightarrow\mathbb{C}$ that is analytic in $F^\circ$, can be approximated by analytic…
In 1950, B.A. Trakhtenbrot showed that the set of first-order tautologies associated to finite models is not recursively enumerable. In 1999, P. H\'ajek generalized this result to the first-order versions of \L ukasiewicz, G\"odel and…
Elementary abelian groups are finite groups in the form of $A=(\mathbb{Z}/p\mathbb{Z})^r$ for a prime number $p$. For every integer $\ell>1$ and $r>1$, we prove a non-trivial upper bound on the $\ell$-torsion in class groups of every…
In [16], a theory of universal extensions in abelian categories is developed; in particular, the notion of Ext-universal object is presented. In the present paper, we show that an Ab3 abelian category which is Ext-small satisfies the Ab4…
Let $\alpha$, $\beta$, and $\gamma$ be partitions describing the isomorphism types of the finite abelian $p$-groups $A$, $B$, and $C$. From theorems by Green and Klein it is well-known that there is a short exact sequence $0\to A\to B\to…
Let $G$ be a finite group and $\varphi(G)=|\{a\in G \mid o(a)=\exp(G)\}|$, where $o(a)$ denotes the order of $a$ in $G$ and $\exp(G)$ denotes the exponent of $G$. Under a natural hypothesis, in this note we determine the groups $G$ such…
We study definably compact definably connected groups definable in a sufficiently saturated real closed field $R$. We introduce the notion of group-generic point for $\bigvee$-definable groups and show the existence of group-generic points…
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 establish a new connection between local and large-scale structure in compactly generated totally disconnected locally compact (t.d.l.c.) groups $G$, finding a sufficient condition for $G$ to have more than one end in terms of its…
We give a presentation of various results on zero-groups in o-minimal structures together with some new observations. In particular we prove that if G is a definably connected definably compact group in an o-minimal expansion of a real…
