Let $B$ be a separable $C^*$-algebra, let $\Gamma$ be a discrete countable group, let $\alpha: \Gamma \to \text{Aut}(B)$ be an action, and let $A$ be an invariant subalgebra. We find certain freeness conditions which guarantee that any…

Let $G$ be a unimodular Lie group, $X$ a compact manifold with boundary, and $M$ be the total space of a principal bundle $G\to M\to X$ so that $M$ is also a strongly pseudoconvex complex manifold. In this work, we show that if $G$ acts by…

We introduce and study the notions of boundary actions and of the Furstenberg boundary of a discrete quantum group. As for classical groups, properties of boundary actions turn out to encode significant properties of the operator algebras…

A group $\Gamma$ is said to be finitely non-co-Hopfian, or renormalizable, if there exists a self-embedding $\varphi \colon \Gamma \to \Gamma$ whose image is a proper subgroup of finite index. Such a proper self-embedding is called a…

We study boundary representations of hyperbolic groups $\Gamma$ on the (compactly embedded) function space $W^{\log,2}(\partial\Gamma)\subset L^2(\partial\Gamma)$, the domain of the logarithmic Laplacian on $\partial\Gamma$. We show that…

Let $n$ be a positive integer and $R=(M_{ij})_{1\leq i,j\leq n}$ be a generalized matrix ring. For each $1\leq i,j\leq n$, let $I_i$ be an ideal of the ring $R_i:=M_{ii}$ and denote $I_{ij}=I_iM_{ij}+M_{ij}I_j$. We give sufficient…

We prove some Fredholm conditions for many algebras of differential operators on particular classes of open manifolds, which include asymptotically Euclidean or asymptotically hyperbolic manifolds. Our typical result is that an operator $P$…

Let $\Omega$ be a bounded open subset with $C^{1+\kappa}$-boundary for some $\kappa > 0$. Consider the Dirichlet-to-Neumann operator associated to the elliptic operator $- \sum \partial_l ( c_{kl} \, \partial_k ) + V$, where the $c_{kl} =…

We show that a discrete group $\Gamma$ which admits a non-elementary isometric action on a Hadamard manifold of bounded negative curvature admits an isometric action on an $L^p$-space $V$ for some $p>1$ with $H^1(\Gamma,V)\not=0$.

The boundary-value problem for Laplace-type operators acting on smooth sections of a vector bundle over a compact Riemannian manifold with generalized local boundary conditions including both normal and tangential derivatives is studied.…

Let $M$ be a four-holed sphere and $\Gamma$ the mapping class group of $M$ fixing the boundary $\partial M$. The group $\Gamma$ acts on $M_B(SL(2,C)) = Hom_B^+(pi_1(M),SL(2,C))/SL(2,C)$ which is the space of completely reducible…

Let $\Gamma=(\mathcal{V},\mathcal{E})$ be a graph, whose vertices $v\in \mathcal{V}$ are colored black and white and labeled with invertible elements $\lambda_v$ from a commutative and associative ring $R$ containing $\pm 1$. Then we…

We consider second order divergence form elliptic operators with $W^{1,1}$ coefficients, in a uniform domain $\Omega$ with Ahlfors regular boundary. We show that the $A_\infty$ property of the elliptic measure associated to any such…

We characterize the groupoids for which an operator is Fredholm if, and only if, its principal symbol and all its boundary restrictions are invertible. A groupoid with this property is called {\em Fredholm}. Using results on the Effros-Hahn…

The squared Laplace operator acting on symmetric rank-two tensor fields is studied on a (flat) Riemannian manifold with smooth boundary. Symmetry of this fourth-order elliptic operator is obtained provided that such tensor fields and their…

The Abels-Margulis-Soifer lemma states that if a semigroup $\Gamma$ acts strongly irreducibly by linear transformations on a finite-dimensional real vector space, then any element of $\Gamma$ can be multiplied by an element of some fixed…

We define the gauge-equivariant index of a family of elliptic operators invariant with respect to the free action of a family $\GR \to B$ of Lie groups (these families are called ``gauge-invariant families'' in what follows). If the fibers…

In this article, we study strictly elliptic, second-order differential operators on a bounded Lipschitz domain in $\mathbb{R}^d$, subject to certain non-local Wentzell-Robin boundary conditions. We prove that such operators generate…

This paper is a self-contained presentation of certain aspects of the theory of weighted Sobolev spaces and elliptic operators on non-compact Riemannian manifolds. Specifically, we discuss (i) the standard and weighted Sobolev Embedding…

The boundary value problem is examined for the system of elliptic equations of from $-\Delta u + A(x)u = 0 \quad\text{in} \Omega,$ where $A(x)$ is positive semidefinite matrix on $\mathbb{R}^{{k}\times{k}},$ and $\frac{\partial u}{\partial…
