Let $p$ be a prime number. Motivated by the local lifting problem for $(\mathbb{Z}/p\mathbb{Z})^n$ with $n>1$, we prove several new results on certain $\mathbb{F}_p$-vector spaces of logarithmic differential forms on the projective line in…
For every $c\geq 1$, we define a strengthening of Kazhdan's Property (T) by considering uniformly bounded representations $\pi$ with fixed bound $|\pi|\leq c$. We carry out a systematic study of this property and show that it can be…
The purpose of this short note is to clarify and present a general version of an interesting observation by Piani and Mora (Physic. Rev. A 75, 012305 (2007)), linking complete positivity of linear maps on matrix algebras to decomposability…
We study the Artinian reduction $A$ of a configuration of points $X \subset {\mathbb P}^n $, and the relation of the geometry of $X$ to Lefschetz properties of $A$. Migliore initiated the study of this connection, with a particular focus on…
We introduce the notion of weakly (strongly) infinite real rank for unital $C^{\ast}$-algebras. It is shown that a compact space $X$ is weakly (strongly) infine-dimensional if and only if $C(X)$ has weakly (strongly) infinite real rank.…
We present the following reflexivity-like result concerning the automorphism group of the $C^*$-algebra B(H), H being a separable Hilbert space. Let $\phi:B(H)\to B(H)$ be a multiplicative map (no linearity or continuity is assumed) which…
We construct a locally compact Hausdorff topology on the path space of a finitely aligned $k$-graph $\Lambda$. We identify the boundary-path space $\partial\Lambda$ as the spectrum of a commutative $C^*$-subalgebra $D_\Lambda$ of…
Exotic group $C^*$-algebras are $C^*$-algebras that lie between the universal and the reduced group $C^*$-algebra of a locally compact group. We consider simple Lie groups $G$ with real rank one and investigate their exotic group…
Let $\Gamma$ be a discrete group. A $C^*$-algebra $A$ is an exotic $C^*$-algebra (associated to $\Gamma$) if there exist proper surjective $C^*$-quotients $C^*(\Gamma)\to A\to C^*_r(\Gamma)$. In this paper, we show that a large class of…
We prove that connected higher rank simple Lie groups have Lafforgue's strong property (T) with respect to a certain class of Banach spaces $\mathcal{E}_{10}$ containing many classical superreflexive spaces and some non-reflexive spaces as…
We extend our previous results on generalized Dixmier-Douady theory to graded $C^*$-algebras, as means for explicit computations of the invariants arising for bundles of ungraded $C^*$-algebras. For a strongly self-absorbing $C^*$-algebra…
Let K be a finite extension of Q_p. The field of norms of a p-adic Lie extension K_infty/K is a local field of characteristic p which comes equipped with an action of Gal(K_infty/K). When can we lift this action to characteristic 0, along…
In the spirit of Fakhruddin (arXiv:math/0212208v1) and Szpiro-Bhatnagar (arXiv:1010.2715v1), we show that for an equicharacteristic complete local ring A, with a given embedding of Spec(A) in the prime spectrum Spec(R) of some complete…
By Bekka's theorem the group C*-algebra of an amenable group $G$ is residually finite dimensional (RFD) if and only if $G$ is maximally almost periodic (MAP). We generalize this result in two directions of dynamical flavour. Firstly, we…
In his study of the relative Dixmier property for inclusions of von Neumann algebras and of $C^*$-algebras, Popa considered a certain property of automorphisms on $C^*$-algebras, that we here call the strong averaging property. In this note…
We prove that a homeomorphism f of a compact metric space X satisfies the L-shadowing property if and only if its induced hyperspace homeomorphism also satisfies the L-shadowing property. In the proof, assuming only the L-shadowing…
Given two Banach spaces $X$ and $Y$, we analyze when the projective tensor product $X\widehat{\otimes}_\pi Y$ has Corson's property (C) or is weakly Lindel\"of determined (WLD), subspace of a weakly compactly generated (WCG) space or…
We establish the MF property of the reduced group $ C^* $-algebra of an amalgamated free product of countable Abelian discrete groups. This result is then used to give a characterization of the amalgamated free products of Abelian groups…
Let $\mathcal{A}$ be the class of unital separable simple amenable $C$*-algebras $A$ which satisfy the Universal Coefficient Theorem for which $A\otimes M_{\texttt{P}}$ has tracial rank zero for some supernatural number $\texttt{p}$ of…
This paper consists of three interconnected parts. Parts I,III study the relationship between the cohomology of a reductive group and that of a Levi subgroup. For example, we provide a necessary condition, arising from Kazhdan-Lusztig…
