Two measures of how near an arbitrary function between groups is to being a homomorphism are considered. These have properties similar to conjugates and commutators. The authors show that there is a rich theory based on these structures,…

We study the complexity of isomorphism of classes of metric structures using methods from infinitary continuous logic. For Borel classes of locally compact structures, we prove that if the equivalence relation of isomorphism is potentially…

Motivated by the vast literature of quantum automorphism groups of graphs, we define and study quantum automorphism groups of matroids. A key feature of quantum groups is that there are many quantizations of a classical group, and this…

In spite of its long history and classical character which goes back even to d'Alembert and Lagrange, the problems of constraints in mechanics of continua is still mysterious and full of misunderstandings. Let us mention the problem of…

This article reviews a generous sampling of both classical and more recent results on the interplay between measurable and topological dynamics. In the first part we have surveyed the strong analogies between ergodic theory and topological…

We show rational homological stability for the homotopy automorphisms and block diffeomorphims of iterated connected sums of products of spheres. The spheres can have different dimension, but need to satisfy a certain connectivity…

We introduce the notion of compactifiable classes -- these are classes of metrizable compact spaces that can be up to homeomorphic copies ``disjointly combined'' into one metrizable compact space. This is witnessed by so-called compact…

We discuss $C^0$-continuous homogeneous quasi-morphisms on the identity component of the group of compactly supported symplectomorphisms of a symplectic manifold. Such quasi-morphisms extend to the $C^0$-closure of this group inside the…

Inspired by work of Szymik and Wahl on the homology of Higman-Thompson groups, we establish a general connection between ample groupoids, topological full groups, algebraic K-theory spectra and infinite loop spaces, based on the…

In this article, we show that the stabilized automorphism group of free exact odometers arising from actions of finitely generated residually finite groups coincides with the topological full group of the odometer acting on itself by right…

Persistent homology, a technique from computational topology, has recently shown strong empirical performance in the context of graph classification. Being able to capture long range graph properties via higher-order topological features,…

In this paper we consider the classes of all continuous $\mathcal{L}$-(pre-)structures for a continuous first-order signature $\mathcal{L}$. We characterize the moduli of continuity for which the classes of finite, countable, or all…

We generalize some results on asymptotic and continuous group $L^p$-cohomology to Orlicz cohomology. In particular, we show that asymptotic Orlicz cohomology is a quasi-isometry invariant and that both notions coincide in the case of a…

In this survey, we describe recent progress on asymptotic properties of various automorphic orbits in free groups. In particular, we address the problem of counting potentially positive elements of a given length. We also discuss complexity…

We analyse logic actions of Polish groups which arise in continuous logic. We extend the generalised model theory of H.Becker to the case of Polish G-spaces when G is an arbitrary Polish group.

For any $C\in[0,\infty]$ a compact group automorphism $T:X\to X$ is constructed with the property that $$ \frac{1}{n}\log|\{x\in X\mid T^n(x)=x\}|\longrightarrow C. $$ This may be interpreted as a combinatorial analogue of the (still open)…

We prove an almost continuous version of Dye's theorem: any two non-atomic probability measure preserving homeomorphisms of Polish spaces are almost continuously orbit equivalent. More precisely they are orbit equivalent by a map which is…

This paper is devoted to the construction of norm-preserving maps between bounded cohomology groups. For a graph of groups with amenable edge groups we construct an isometric embedding of the direct sum of the bounded cohomology of the…

In the branch of mathematics known as graph theory, graphs are considered as a set of points, called vertices, with connections between these points, called edges. The purpose of this paper is to study mappings between two graphs that have…

This sequel to our previous paper [MS11b] continues the study of topological contact dynamics and applications to contact dynamics and topological dynamics. We provide further evidence that the topological automorphism groups of a contact…
