We obtain a sufficient condition for lattices in the automorphism group of a finite dimensional CAT(0) cube complex to have infinite girth. As a corollary, we get a version of Girth Alternative for groups acting geometrically: any such…

Given a proper, cocompact action of a Lie groupoid, we define a higher index pairing between invariant elliptic differential operators and smooth groupoid cohomology classes. We prove a cohomological index formula for this pairing by…

GroupMath is a Mathematica package which performs several calculations related to semi-simple Lie algebras and the permutation groups, both of which are important in particle physics as well as in other areas of research.

This is a continuation of the authors' previous work [math.AT/9910001] on classification of equivariant complex vector bundles over a circle. In this paper we classify equivariant real vector bundles over a circle with a compact Lie group…

We study relative Cohn path algebras, also known as Leavitt-Cohn path algebras, and we realize them as partial skew group rings (to do this we prove uniqueness theorems for relative Cohn path algebras). Furthermore, given any graph $E$ we…

We show that the leaves of an LA-groupoid which pass through the unit manifold are, modulo a connectedness issue, Lie groupoids. We illustrate this phenomenon by considering the cotangent Lie algebroids of Poisson groupoids thus obtaining…

For a Lie groupoid $\mathcal{G}$ with Lie algebroid $A$, we realize the symplectic leaves of the Lie-Poisson structure on $A^*$ as orbits of the affine coadjoint action of the Lie groupoid $\mathcal{J}\mathcal{G}\ltimes T^*M$ on $A^*$,…

Let $M$ be a compact, connected symplectic manifold with a Hamiltonian action of a compact $n$-dimensional torus $T$. Suppose that $M$ is equipped with an anti-symplectic involution $\sigma$ compatible with the $T$-action. The real locus of…

We interpret certain equivariant Kasparov groups as equivariant representable K-theory groups. We compute these groups via a classifying space and as K-theory groups of suitable sigma-C*-algebras. We also relate equivariant vector bundles…

In this paper we define a new category of almost complex riemannian 4- manifolds and discuss some basic properties of such pseudo symplectic manifolds. Some motivation based on the Seiberg - Witten theory is imposed.

We study left invariant contact forms and left invariant symplectic forms on Lie groups. We give the classification of all symplectic structures on nilpotent Lie algebras up the dimension 6.

In this article, we introduce a new object, a virtual quadratic space, and its group of isometries. They are presented as natural generalizations of quadratic spaces and orthogonal groups. It is then shown that by replacing quadratic spaces…

Let G be an n-dimensional torus and $\tau$ a Hamiltonian action of G on a compact symplectic manifold, M. If M is pre-quantizable one can associate with $\tau$ a representation of G on a virtual vector space, Q(M), by…

Virtual racks and virtual quandles are nonassociative algebraic structures based on the Reidemeister moves of virtual knots. In this note, we enumerate virtual dihedral quandles and several families of virtual permutation racks and virtual…

Classical mechanical systems are modeled by a symplectic manifold $(M,\omega)$, and their symmetries, encoded in the action of a Lie group $G$ on $M$ by diffeomorphisms that preserves $\omega$. These actions, which are called "symplectic",…

A natural scheme is established for the approximation of quantum Levy processes on locally compact quantum groups by quantum random walks. We work in the somewhat broader context of discrete approximations of completely positive quantum…

In this paper we prove a Markov Theorem for virtual braids and for some analogs of this structure. The virtual braid group is the natural companion in the category of virtual knots, just as the Artin braid group is the natural companion to…

This paper gives a new interpretation of the virtual braid group in terms of a strict monoidal category SC that is freely generated by one object and three morphisms, two of the morphisms corresponding to basic pure virtual braids and one…

A multiplicatively closed, horizontal foliation on a Lie groupoid may be viewed as a "pseudoaction" on the base manifold $M$. A pseudoaction generates a pseudogroup of transformations of $M$ in the same way an ordinary Lie group action…

The Butcher group is a powerful tool to analyse integration methods for ordinary differential equations, in particular Runge--Kutta methods. In the present paper, we complement the algebraic treatment of the Butcher group with a natural…
