We introduce the notion of an R-group of which the clas- sical groups R, Z and R_+ are typical examples, and we study flows (X;H), where X is a locally compact space and H is a continuous R- group action on X with the further property that…

We prove a Fredholm property for spin-c Dirac operators $\mathsf{D}$ on non-compact manifolds satisfying a certain condition with respect to the action of a semi-direct product group $K\ltimes \Gamma$, with $K$ compact and $\Gamma$…

We prove that for any two elements $A$, $B$ in a factor $M$, if $B$ commutes with all the unitary conjugates of $A$, then either $A$ or $B$ is in $\mathbb{C}I$. Then we obtain an equivalent condition for the situation that the $C$-numerical…

Consider the action of $SL(n+1,\mathbb{R})$ on $\mathbb{S}^n$ arising as the quotient of the linear action on $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}\setminus\{0\}$. We show that for a semigroup $\mathfrak{S}$ of $SL(n+1,\mathbb{R})$, the following are…

A locally compact group $ G $ is discrete if and only if the Fourier algebra $ A(G) $ has a non-zero (weakly) compact multiplier. We partially extend this result to the setting of ultraspherical hypergroups. Let $H$ be an ultraspherical…

Let $G$ be a finite group, and $\alpha$ a nontrivial character of $G$. The McKay graph ${\mathcal M}(G,\alpha)$ has the irreducible characters of $G$ as vertices, with an edge from $\chi_1$ to $\chi_2$ if $\chi_2$ is a constituent of…

In the paper we consider the following conjecture: if a finite group $G$ possesses a solvable $\pi$-Hall subgroup $H$, then there exist elements $x,y,z,t\in G$ such that the identity $H\cap H^x\cap H^y\cap H^z\cap H^t=O_\pi(G)$ holds. The…

The semidirect product $\mathbb{G}=\mathbb{L}\rtimes \mathbb{K}$ attached to a compact-group action on a connected, simply-connected solvable Lie group has a dense set of compact elements precisely when the $s\in \mathbb{K}$ operating on…

We introduce the Hofer-Zehnder $G$-semicapacity $c_{HZ}^G(M,\om)$ of a symplectic manifold $(M,\om)$ with respect to a subgroup $G \subset \pi_1(M)$ ($c_{HZ}(M,\om) \leq c^G_{HZ}(M,\om)$) and prove that if $(M,\om)$ is tame and there exists…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $\sigma=\{\sigma_{i}|i\in I\}$ be a partition of the set of all primes $\mathbb{P}$, that is, $\mathbb{P}=\bigcup_{i\in I}\sigma_{i}$ and $\sigma_{i}\cap \sigma_{j}=\emptyset$ for all $i\neq j$. A chief factor…

In this work we exhibit flexibility phenomena for some (countable) groups acting by order preserving homeomorphisms of the line. More precisely, we show that if a left orderable group admits an amalgam decomposition of the form…

Suppose a locally compact group G acts freely and properly on a locally compact Hausdorff space X, and let gamma be the induced action on C_0(X). We consider a category in which the objects are C*-dynamical systems (A, G, alpha) for which…
