Using tools from computable analysis we develop a notion of effectiveness for general dynamical systems as those group actions on arbitrary spaces that contain a computable representative in their topological conjugacy class. Most natural…
This is an announcement of some of the results obtained as a part of the second author's Ph.D. thesis. In the first part, we prove that the fundamental group of an acylindrical complex of hyperbolic groups with finite edge groups is…
We study when a piecewise full group (a.k.a. topological full group) of homeomorphisms of the Cantor space $X$ can be given a non-discrete totally disconnected locally compact (t.d.l.c.) topology and give a criterion for the alternating…
Extending the Wedderburn-Artin theory of (classically) semisimple associative rings to the realm of topological rings with right linear topology, we show that the abelian category of left contramodules over such a ring is split…
This work explores new classes of nonstationary stochastic sequences associated with polynomial hypergroups. Their covariance structures are analyzed through positive definite kernels and corresponding Hilbert spaces. Novel consistent…
A linear system on a smooth complex algebraic surface gives rise to a family of smooth curves in the surface. Such a family has a topological monodromy representation valued in the mapping class group of a fiber. Extending arguments of…
We study positive definite kernels pulled back along a finite family of self-maps under a subinvariance inequality for the associated branching operator. Iteration produces an increasing kernel tower with defect kernels. Under diagonal…
This work is motivated by the problem of finding locally compact group topologies for piecewise full groups (a.k.a.~ topological full groups). We determine that any piecewise full group that is locally compact in the compact-open topology…
We introduce perfect tangles for modular tensor categories. These are intended to generalise the perfect tensors first introduced in the context of a toy model for the AdS/CFT correspondence. We construct perfect tangles for several…
This paper is a survey, with few proofs, of ideas and notions related to self-similarity of groups, semi-groups and their actions. It attempts to relate these concepts to more familiar ones, such as fractals, self-similar sets, and…
We explicate a number of notions of algebraic laminations existing in the literature, particularly in the context of an exact sequence $$1\to H\to G \to Q \to 1 $$ of hyperbolic groups. These laminations arise in different contexts:…
A model for a finite group is a set of linear characters of subgroups that can be induced to obtain every irreducible character exactly once. A perfect model for a finite Coxeter group is a model in which the relevant subgroups are the…
We introduce a new class of locally compact groups, namely the strongly compactly covered groups, which are the Hausdorff topological groups $G$ such that every element of $G$ is contained in a compact open normal subgroup of $G$. For…
Carrier graphs of groups representing subgroups of a given relatively hyperbolic groups are introduced and a combination theorem for relatively quasi-convex subgroups is proven. Subsequently a theory of folds for such carrier graphs is…
We continue the study of non-invertible topological dynamical systems with expanding behavior. We introduce the class of {\em finite type} systems which are characterized by the condition that, up to rescaling and uniformly bounded…
We introduce and study the notions of hyperbolically embedded and very rotating families of subgroups. The former notion can be thought of as a generalization of the peripheral structure of a relatively hyperbolic group, while the later one…
The purpose of this note is twofold. In the first part we observe that two finitely generated non-amenable groups are quasi-isometric if and only if they admit topologically orbit equivalent Cantor minimal actions. In particular, free…
We study the topological dynamics of the action of an acylindrically hyperbolic group on the space of its infinite index convex cocompact subgroups by conjugation. We show that, for any suitable probability measure $\mu$, random walks with…
We present a new notion of non-positively curved groups: the collection of discrete countable groups acting (AU-)acylindrically on finite products of $\delta$-hyperbolic spaces with general type factors. Inspired by the classical theory of…
We carry out the Cantor-Bendixson analysis of the space of all subgroups of any countable abelian group and we deduce a complete classification of such spaces up to homeomorphism.
