Anosov representations $\rho$ of a hyperbolic group $\Gamma$ into a semisimple Lie group $G$ are known to admit cocompact domains of discontinuity in flag varieties $G/Q$, endowing the compact quotient manifolds $M_\rho$ with a…

We give a partial solution to a long-standing open problem in the theory of quantum groups, namely we prove that all finite-dimensional representations of a wide class of locally compact quantum groups factor through matrix quantum groups…

In \cite{baker-ozel}, by using Fredholm index we developed a version of Quillen's geometric cobordism theory for infinite dimensional Hilbert manifolds. This cobordism theory has a graded group structure under topological union operation…

One can represent Schwartz distributions with values in a vector bundle $E$ by smooth sections of $E$ with distributional coefficients. Moreover, any linear continuous operator which maps $E$-valued distributions to smooth sections of…

We study the action of the mapping class group on the real homology of finite covers of a topological surface. We use the homological representation of the mapping class to construct a faithful infinite-dimensional representation of the…

In this work, we compute the $0$th cohomology group of a complex of groups of cobordism-framed correspondences, and prove the isomorphism to Milnor $K$-groups. An analogous result for common framed correspondences has been proved by A.…

It is stated that Boolean set algebras with unit V, where V is a union of Cartesian products, are axiomatizable. The axiomatization coincides with that of cylindric polyadic equality algebras (class CPE). This is an algebraic representation…

Let $V$ be a finite-dimensional vector space over the field with $p$ elements, where $p$ is a prime number. Given arbitrary $\alpha,\beta\in \mathrm{GL}(V)$, we consider the semidirect products $V\rtimes\langle \alpha\rangle$ and…

Let $P$ be a pseudogroup of local diffeomorphisms of an $n$-dimensional smooth manifold $M$. Following Losik we consider characteristic classes of the quotient $M/P$ as elements of the de~Rham cohomology of the second order frame bundles…

We carry out a generalization of quantum group co-representations in order to encode in this structure those cases where non-commutativity between endomorphism matrix entries and quantum space coordinates happens.

In our previous paper math/0502157 we classified a large class of finite-dimensional pointed Hopf algebras up to isomorphism. However the following problem was left open for Hopf algebras of of type $A,D$ or $E_6$, that is whose Cartan…

We initiate the study of representations of elementary abelian $p$-groups via restrictions to truncated polynomial subalgebras of the group algebra generated by $r$ nilpotent elements, $k[t_1,..., t_r]/(t^p_1,..., t_r^p)$. We introduce new…

We investigate the representation theory of the polynomial core of the quantum Teichmuller space of a punctured surface S. This is a purely algebraic object, closely related to the combinatorics of the simplicial complex of ideal cell…

We prove the following theorem: let $A$ be a UCT Kirchberg algebra, and let $\alpha$ be a prime-order automorphism of $K_*(A)$, with $\alpha([1_A])=[1_A]$ in case $A$ is unital. Then $\alpha$ is induced from an automorphism of $A$ having…

As a consequence of Kirchberg's work, Connes' Embedding Conjecture is equivalent to the property that every homomorphism of the group $F_\infty\times F_\infty$ into the unitary group $U(\ell^2)$ with the strong topology is pointwise…

We use group cohomology and the de Rham complex on simplicial manifolds to give explicit differential forms representing generators of the cohomology rings of moduli spaces of representations of fundamental groups of 2-manifolds. These…

We show that any compact quantum group having the same fusion rules as the ones of $SO(3)$ is the quantum automorphism group of a pair $(A, \varphi)$, where $A$ is a finite dimensional $C^*$-algebra endowed with a homogeneous faithful…

Consider a compact K\"ahler manifold endowed with a prequantum bundle. Following the geometric quantization scheme, the associated quantum spaces are the spaces of holomorphic sections of the tensor powers of the prequantum bundle. In this…

Recently the authors initiated an $\imath$Hall algebra approach to (universal) $\imath$quantum groups arising from quantum symmetric pairs. In this paper we construct and study BGP type reflection functors which lead to isomorphisms of the…

We compare two constructions that associate to a semistable vector bundle on a Mumford curve a representation of the Schottky group and the algebraic fundamental group respectively.
