For a commutative ring $A$ we consider a related graph, $\Gamma(A)$, whose vertices are the unimodular rows of length $2$ up to multiplication by units. We prove that $\Gamma(A)$ is path-connected if and only if $A$ is a…

The (parallel) linear transports along paths in vector bundles are axiomatically described. Their general form and certain properties are found. It is shown that these transports are locally (i.e. along every fixed path) always Euclidean…

In this work we consider a model of an electron moving in a plane under uniform external magnetic and electric fields. We investigate the action of unitary maps on the associated quantum Hamiltonians and construct the coherent states of…

A complex projective manifold is rationally connected, resp. rationally simply connected, if finite subsets are connected by a rational curve, resp. the spaces parameterizing these connecting rational curves are themselves rationally…

Given an orthogonal representation of a compact group, we show that any element of the connected component of the isometry group of the orbit space lifts to an equivariant isometry of the original Euclidean space. Corollaries include a…

We give a classification of unitary representations of certain Polish, not necessarily locally compact, groups: the groups of all measurable functions with values in the circle and the groups of all continuous functions on compact, second…

We study the unitary orbit of a normal operator $a\in \mathcal B(\mathcal H)$, regarded as a homogeneous space for the action of unitary groups associated with symmetrically normed ideals of compact operators. We show with an unified…

Let $G=(V,E)$ be a finite undirected graph. If $P$ is an oriented path from $r_1\in V$ to $r_2\in V$, we define $\partial(P) = r_2-r_1$. If $R, S\subseteq V$, we denote by $P(G; R, S)$ the span of the set of all $\partial P\otimes \partial…

We consider the space of $n$-tuples of pairwise commuting elements in the Lie algebra of $U(m)$. We relate its one-point compactification to the subquotients of certain rank filtrations of connective complex $K$-theory. We also describe the…

In this paper, we construct a compact subset of the real plane whose path-connectedness equivalence relation is Borel bireducible to a nonsmooth hyperfinite Borel equivalence relation. This answers a question of \cite{bec98}.

Given a compact metric space $X$ and an upper semicontinuous function $F\colon X \to 2^X$, we explore the dynamic system $(X,F)$. In this study, we introduce new concepts, demonstrate various results, and provide numerous examples. In…

In the present article, we investigate a possibility of a real-valued map on the space of tuples of commuting trace-class self-adjoint operators, which behaves like the usual trace map on the space of trace-class linear operators. It turns…

Given an extension $0\to V\to G\to Q\to1$ of locally compact groups, with $V$ abelian, and a compatible essentially bijective $1$-cocycle $\eta\colon Q\to\hat V$, we define a dual unitary $2$-cocycle on $G$ and show that the associated…

We show that a finite unitary group which has orbits spanning the whole space is necessarily the setwise stabilizer of a certain orbit.

For any unital commutative ring $R$ and for any graph $E$, we identify the commutative core of the Leavitt path algebra of $E$ with coefficients in $R$, which is a maximal commutative subalgebra of the Leavitt path algebra. Furthermore, we…

We prove that the road space of an R-special tree is contractible and that a locally metrizable space containing a copy of an uncountable $\omega_1$-compact subspace of a tree is not. We also raise some questions about possible…

In this paper the space of commuting elements in the central product $G_{m,p}$ of $m$ copies of the special unitary group $SU(p)$ is studied, where $p$ is a prime number. In particular, a computation for the number of path connected…

We generalize some aspects of the theory of compact projections relative to a C*-algebra, to the setting of more general algebras. Our main result is that compact projections are the decreasing limits of `peak projections', and in the…

Comprehensive - that is, gauge and family - unification using spinors has many attractive features, but it has been challenged to explain chirality. Here, by combining an orbifold construction with more traditional ideas, we address that…

This paper will show when a rooted path tree of a finite directed rooted graph has only finitely many orbits under the action of its undirected automorphism group (i.e. when it is cocompact). This will allow us to specify which trees are…
