We show that C*-algebras generated by irreducible representations of finitely generated nilpotent groups satisfy the universal coefficient theorem of Rosenberg and Schochet. This result combines with previous work to show that these…

In this paper, we give a construction of a (C*-algebraic) quantum Heisenberg group. This is done by viewing it as the dual quantum group of the specific non-compact quantum group (A,\Delta) constructed earlier by the author. Our definition…

The study of actions of countable groups by automorphisms of compact abelian groups has recently undergone intensive development, revealing deep connections with operator algebras and other areas. The discrete Heisenberg group is the…

Generalizing the dihedral picture for G(M,M,2), we construct Hecke algebras (and present a strategy for constructing Hecke categories) and asymptotic counterparts. We think of these as associated with the complex reflection group G(M,M,N).

For an Abelian group $G$, any homomorphism $\mu\colon G\otimes G\rightarrow G$ is called a \textsf{multiplication} on $G$. The set $\text{Mult}\,G$ of all multiplications on an Abelian group $G$ is an Abelian group with respect to addition.…

A finitely presented, torsion free, abelian-by-cyclic group can always be written as an ascending HNN extension Gamma_M of Z^n, determined by an n x n integer matrix M with det(M) \ne 0. The group Gamma_M is polycyclic if and only if…

Collino proved that the fundamental group of a certain Zariski open set of the symmetric square of a hyperelliptic curve is isomorphic to the integral Heisenberg group. We compute the mixed Hodge structure on this fundamental group, and…

Let G be a graph of hyperbolic groups with 2-ended edge groups. We show that G is hierarchically hyperbolic if and only if G has no distorted infinite cyclic subgroup. More precisely, we show that G is hierarchically hyperbolic if and only…

The nonabelian tensor square $G\otimes G$ of a polycyclic group $G$ is a polycyclic group and its structure arouses interest in many contexts. The same assertion is still true for wider classes of solvable groups. This motivated us to work…

In this paper, we investigate nilpotent and unimodular solvable Lie groups that admit quasi-Einstein metrics $(M,g,X)$ with $X$ a left-invariant vector field, which we call totally left-invariant quasi-Einstein metrics. We give a complete…

In this paper we construct a projective action of certain arithmetic group on the derived category of coherent sheaves on an abelian scheme $A$, which is analogous to Weil representation of the symplectic group. More precisely, the…

A Hom-group G is a nonassociative version of a group where associativity, invertibility, and unitality are twisted by a map \alpha: G\longrightarrow G. Introducing the Hom-group algebra KG, we observe that Hom-groups are providing examples…

We describe the C*-algebras of the Heisenberg group H_n, n\geq 1, and the thread-like Lie group G_N, N\geq 3, in terms of C*-algebras of operator fields.

We introduce a general class of Heisenberg groups motivated by applications of algebraic Fourier theory. Basic properties are examined from a homological perspective.

Complex reflection groups of rank two are precisely the finite groups in the family of groups that we call J-reflection groups. These groups are particular cases of J-groups as defined by Achar & Aubert in 2008. The family of J-reflection…

Many authors have constructed different, but related, linear group cocycles that are usually referred to as ``Eisenstein cocycles.'' The main goal of this work is to describe a topological construction that is a common source for all these…

We introduce a 2-cocycle for symplectic and skew-hermitian hyperbolic groups over arbitrary fields and skew fields, with values in the Witt group of hermitian forms. This cocycle has good functorial properties: it is natural under extension…

Let $\mathbb{F}$ be a field, and fix a $q\in\mathbb{F}$. The $q$-deformed Heisenberg algebra $\mathcal{H}(q)$ is the unital associative algebra over $\mathbb{F}$ with generators $A$, $B$ and a relation which asserts that $AB - qBA$ is the…

Let $G$ be a finitely presented group, and let $H$ be a subgroup of $G$. We prove that if $H$ is acylindrically hyperbolic and existentially closed in $G$, then $G$ is acylindrically hyperbolic. As a corollary, any finitely presented group…

We prove that a nonempty subset $B$ of a regular hypersemigroup $H$ is a bi-ideal of $H$ if and only if it is represented in the form $B=A*C$ where $A$ is a right ideal and $C$ a left ideal of $H$. We also show that an hypersemigroup $H$ is…
