Let K be a discretly henselian field whose residue field is separably closed. Answering a question raised by G. Prasad, we show that a semisimple K-- group G is quasi-split if and only if it quasi--splits after a finite tamely ramified…

In this article we provide evidence for a well-known conjecture which states that quasi-isometric simply-connected nilpotent Lie groups are isomorphic. We do so by constructing new examples which are rigid in the sense that whenever they…

A quasi-Hermitian operator is an operator that is similar to its adjoint in some sense, via a metric operator, i.e., a strictly positive self-adjoint operator. Whereas those metric operators are in general assumed to be bounded, we analyze…

We examine Hilbert-Schmidt stability (HS-stability) of discrete amenable groups from several angles. We give a short, elementary proof that finitely generated nilpotent groups are HS-stable. We investigate the permanence of HS-stability…

We present a variation of quasi-isometry to approach the problem of defining a geometric notion equivalent to commensurability. In short, this variation can be summarized as "quasi-isometry with uniform parameters for a large enough family…

Commability is the finest equivalence relation between locally compact groups such that $G$ and $H$ are equivalent whenever there is a continuous proper homomorphism $G \to H$ with cocompact image. Answering a question of Cornulier, we show…

We provide an example of two elementarily equivalent countable ICC groups $G$ and $H$ such that $G$ is amenable and $H$ is not inner amenable. As a result, we provide the first example of elementarily equivalent groups whose group von…

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…

We show that the pair given by the power set and by the "Grassmannian"(set of all subgroups) of an arbitrary group behaves very much like the pair given by a projective space and its dual projective space. More precisely, we generalize…

In this paper we introduce a new notion of strong pseudo-amenability for Banach algebras. We study strong pseudo-amenability of some Matrix algebras. Using this tool, we characterize strong pseudo-amenability of $\ell^{1}(S)$, provided that…

Let $H$ and $B$ be subgroups of a finite group $G$ such that $G=N_{G}(H)B$. Then we say that $H$ is \emph{quasipermutable} (respectively \emph{$S$-quasipermutable}) in $G$ provided $H$ permutes with $B$ and with every subgroup (respectively…

The covariant derivative of the K\"ahler form of an almost pseudo-Hermitian or of an almost para-Hermitian manifold satisfies certain algebraic relations. We show, conversely, that any 3-tensor which satisfies these algebraic relations can…

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…

Let $K$ be a $p$-adically closed field and $G$ a group interpretable in $K$. We show that if $G$ is definably semisimple (i.e. $G$ has no definable infinite normal abelian subgroups) then there exists a finite normal subgroup $H$ such that…

Let G be one of the local gauge groups C(X,U(n)), C^\infty(X,U(n)), C(X,SU(n)) or C^\infty(X,SU(n)) where X is a compact Riemannian manifold. We observe that G has a nontrivial group topology, coarser than its natural topology, w.r.t. which…

This paper continues math.GR/0608302's study of amenability of affine algebras (based on the notion of almost-invariant finite-dimensional subspace), and applies it to graded algebras associated with finitely generated groups. Due to a…

Amenability and pseudo-amenability of $ \ell^{1}(S,\omega) $ is characterized, where $S$ is a left (right) zero semigroup or it is a rectangular band semigroup. The equivalence conditions to amenability of $\ell^{1}(S,\omega)$ are provided,…

We study the concept of co-amenability for a compact quantum group. Several conditions are derived that are shown to be equivalent to it. Some consequences of co-amenability that we obtain are faithfulness of the Haar integral and automatic…

For a finitely generated group $G$ and collection of subgroups $\mathcal{P}$ we prove that the relative Dehn function of a pair $(G,\mathcal{P})$ is invariant under quasi-isometry of pairs. Along the way we show quasi-isometries of pairs…

Let K be a fine hyperbolic graph and G be a group acting on K with finite quotient. We prove that G is exact provided that all vertex stabilizers are exact. In particular, a relatively hyperbolic group is exact if all its peripheral groups…
