We characterize when there exists a diagonal preserving $*$-isomorphism between two graph $C^*$-algebras in terms of the dynamics of the boundary path spaces. In particular, we refine the notion of "orbit equivalence" between the boundary…

We introduce a notion of retraction between continuous maps of topological spaces and study the behavior of several numerical invariants under such retractions. These include (co)homological dimensions, the Lusternik-Schnirelmann category,…

The \'etale homotopy groups of schemes as defined by Artin and Mazur have the disadvantage of being homotopy invariant only in characteristic zero. This and other related problems led to the definition of the tame topology which is coarser…

We describe the relation of $r$-similarity and finite-order invariants on the homotopy set $[S^1,Y]=\pi_1(Y)$.

We explicitly construct a dynamically incoherent partially hyperbolic endomorphisms of $\mathbb{T}^2$ in the homotopy class of any linear expanding map with integer eigenvalues. These examples exhibit branching of centre curves along…

Let $A$ and $B$ be C*-algebras and $\varphi\colon A\to B$ be a $*$-homomorphism. We discuss the properties of the kernel and (co-)image of the induced map $\mathrm{K}_{0}(\varphi)\colon \mathrm{K}_{0}(A) \to \mathrm{K}_{0}(B)$ on the level…

We describe a general method of arithmetic coding of geodesics on the modular surface based on a two parameter family of continued fraction transformations studied previously by the authors. The finite rectangular structure of the…

We extend homological perturbation theory to encompass algebraic structures governed by operads and cooperads. The main difficulty is to find a suitable notion of algebra homotopy that generalizes to algebras over operads O. To solve this…

We show that every continuous map from one translationally finite tiling space to another can be approximated by a local map. If two local maps are homotopic, then the homotopy can be chosen so that every interpolating map is also local.

In this paper we study the relationship between Lyapunov exponents and the induced map on cohomology for $C^{1}-$diffeomorphisms on compact manifolds. We show that if the induced map on cohomology has spectral radius strictly larger than 1,…

Homotopy is an important feature of associative and Jordan algebraic structures: such structures always come in families whose members need not be isomorphic among other, but still share many important properties. One may regard homotopy as…

Non-commutative multivariable versions of weighted shift operators arise naturally as `weighted' left creation operators acting on the Fock space Hilbert space. We identify a natural notion of periodicity for these $N$-tuples, and then find…

We show that the notions of homotopy epimorphism and homological epimorphism in the category of differential graded algebras are equivalent. As an application we obtain a characterization of acyclic maps of topological spaces in terms of…

We generalize the notion of a continuous field of C*-algebras to that of Hilbert C*-bimodules. Given a partially ordered set $P$ and a monotonically non-decreasing family of ternary rings of operators (TROs) assigned to the points of $P$,…

We introduce {\it covariant structures} $\left\{(\A,\k),(\a,\aa),\(\ha,\haa\)\right\}$ formed of a separable $C^*$-algebra $\A$, a measurable twisted action $(\a,\aa)$ of the second-countable locally compact group $\G$\,, a measurable…

We prove that all eight KO groups for a real C*-algebra can be constructed from homotopy classes of unitary matrices that respect a variety of symmetries. In this manifestation of the KO groups, all eight boundary maps in the 24-term exact…

We introduce the holonomy-diffeomorphism algebra, a C*-algebra generated by flows of vectorfields and the compactly supported smooth functions on a manifold. We show that the separable representations of the holonomy-diffeomorphism algebra…

We prove a noncommutative variant of Saskin's classical theorem -- on the connection between Choquet boundaries for function spaces and Korovkin sets -- for operator systems generating separable Type I C*-algebras. The main result implies…

We explore the Fourier transform of the Heegaard Floer $d$-invariants, which is particularly well-behaved with respect to connected sum. As corollaries, we show that lens spaces are cancellable in the monoid of 3-manifolds up to integer…

Representations of $C^*$-algebras are realized on section spaces of holomorphic homogeneous vector bundles. The corresponding section spaces are investigated by means of a new notion of reproducing kernel, suitable for dealing with…
