We develop the basic model theory of local positive logic, a new logic that mixes positive logic (where negation is not allowed) and local logic (where models omit types of infinite distant pairs). We study several basic model theoretic…

A new subspace of Morrey spaces whose elements can be approximated by infinitely differentiable compactly supported functions is introduced. Consequently, we give an explicit description of the closure of the set of such functions in Morrey…

We study the group of almost-periodic homeomorphisms of the real line. Our main result states that an action of a finitely generated group on the real line without global fixed point is conjugated to an almost-periodic action without almost…

In this paper, we introduce local expressions for discrete Mechanics. To apply our results simultaneously to several interesting cases, we derive these local expressions in the framework of Lie groupoids, following the program proposed by…

We compute the compactly supported cohomology of the standard realization of any locally finite building.

Let $G$ be a compact Lie group. (Compact) topological $G$-manifolds have the $G$-homotopy type of (finite-dimensional) countable $G$-CW complexes (2.5). This partly generalizes Elfving's theorem for locally linear $G$-manifolds [Elf96],…

Given a pair of number fields with isomorphic rings of adeles, we construct bijections between objects associated to the pair. For instance we construct an isomorphism of Brauer groups that commutes with restriction. We additionally…

Approximate lattices of Euclidean spaces, also known as Meyer sets, are aperiodic subsets with fascinating properties. In general, approximate lattices are defined as approximate subgroups of locally compact groups that are discrete and…

We give a brief introduction to the notion of an 'approximate group' and some of its numerous applications.

We study infinite approximate subgroups of soluble Lie groups. Generalising a theorem of Fried and Goldman we show that approximate subgroups are close, in a sense to be defined, to genuine connected subgroups. Building up on this result we…

The class, denoted by $\mathscr{S}$, of totally disconnected locally compact groups which are non-discrete, compactly generated, and topologically simple contains many compelling examples. In recent years, a general theory for these groups,…

We consider approximation by functions with finite support and characterize its approximation spaces in terms of interpolation spaces and Lorentz spaces.

A topological group is called a pro-Lie group if it is isomorphic to a closed subgroup of a product of finite-dimensional real Lie groups. This class of groups is closed under the formation of arbitrary products and closed subgroups and…

We note a parallel between some ideas of stable model theory and certain topics in finite combinatorics related to the sum-product phenomenon. For a simple linear group G, we show that a finite subset X with |X X \^{-1} X |/ |X| bounded is…

Field Arithmetic studies the interplay between arithmetical properties of fields and their absolute Galois groups. Here we studies fields satisfying local global principles for rational points of varieties and profinite groups satisfying…

Motivated by analogous results in locally conformal symplectic geometry, we study different classes of G$_2$-structures defined by a locally conformal closed 3-form. In particular, we give a complete characterization of invariant exact…

The purpose of this survey is to describe how locally compact groups can be studied as geometric objects. We will emphasize the main ideas and skip or just sketch most proofs, often referring the reader to our much more detailed book…

Matrix approximation is a common tool in machine learning for building accurate prediction models for recommendation systems, text mining, and computer vision. A prevalent assumption in constructing matrix approximations is that the…

A compact manifold $M$ together with a Riemannian metric $h$ on its universal cover $\tilde M$ for which $\pi_1(M)$ acts by similarities is called a similarity structure. In the case where $\pi_1(M) \not\subset \mathrm{Isom}(\tilde M, h)$…

In 2000, M. Burger and S. Mozes introduced universal groups acting on trees with a prescribed local action. We generalize this concept to groups acting on right-angled buildings. When the right-angled building is thick and irreducible of…
