Aimed at geometric applications, we prove the homology cobordism invariance of the $L^2$-betti numbers and $L^2$-signature defects associated to the class of amenable groups lying in Strebel's class $D(R)$, which includes some interesting…

We construct a series of homogeneous spaces G/H of reductive type which admit proper actions of discrete subgroups of G isomorphic to cocompact lattices of O(n,1) (n=2,3,4) but do not admit proper actions of non-compact semisimple subgroups…

For discrete Hecke pairs $(G,H)$, we introduce a notion of covariant representation which reduces in the case where $H$ is normal to the usual definition of covariance for the action of $G/H$ on $c_0(G/H)$ by right translation; in many…

Let G be a connected simple linear Lie group and H in G a symmetric subgroup such that the corresponding symmetric space G/H is non-compactly causal. We show that any irreducible unitary representation of G leads naturally to a net of…

Given an algebraic variety $X\subset\mathbb{P}^N$ with stabilizer $H$, the quotient $PGL_{N+1}/H$ can be interpreted a parameter space for all $PGL_{N+1}$-translates of $X$. We define $X$ to be a $\textit{homogeneous variety}$ if $H$ acts…

We give conditions on a diffeological group $G$ and a normal subgroup $H$ under which the quotient group $G/H$ differentiates to a Lie algebra for which $\operatorname{Lie}(G/H) \cong \operatorname{Lie}(G)/\operatorname{Lie}(H)$. Our Lie…

Let $G$ be a countable group. We introduce several equivalence relations on the set ${\rm Sub}(G)$ of subgroups of $G$, defined by properties of the quasi-regular representations $\lambda_{G/H}$ associated to $H\in {\rm Sub}(G)$ and compare…

Let $G$ be a locally convex Lie group and $\pi:G \to \mathrm{U}(\mathcal{H})$ be a continuous unitary representation. $\pi$ is called smooth if the space of $\pi$-smooth vectors $\mathcal{H}^\infty\subset \mathcal{H}$ is dense. In this…

In a recent paper we found conditions for a nilpotent Lie group $N$ to have a filtration by normal subgroups whose successive quotients have square integrable representations, and such that these square integrable representations fit…

Let $G$ be a reductive linear algebraic group. The simplest example of a projective homogeneous $G$-variety in characteristic $p$, not isomorphic to a flag variety, is the divisor $x_0 y_0^p+x_1 y_1^p+x_2 y_2^p=0$ in $P^2\times P^2$, which…

A connected homogeneous space X=G/K is called commutative if G is a connected Lie group, $K$ is a compact subgroup and the B*-algebra L^1(X)^K of K-invariant integrable function on X is commutative. In this article we introduce the space…

For a locally compact group $G$ and a compact subgroup $H$, we show that the Banach space $M(G/H)$ may be considered as a quotient space of $M(G)$. Also, we define a convolution on $M(G/H)$ which makes it into a Banach algebra. It may be…

The space of realizations of a finite-dimensional Lie algebra by first order differential operators is naturally isomorphic to H^1 with coefficients in the module of functions. The condition that a realization admits a finite-dimensional…
