As is well-known, the compact groups Spin(7) and SO(7) both have a single conjugacy class of compact subgroups of exceptional type G_2. We first show that if H is a subgroup of Spin(7), and if each element of H is conjugate to some element…

Let $\Gamma\backslash G/K$ be a compact Hermitian locally symmetric space, where $G$ is simple. We study the components of a de Rham cohomology class of $\Gamma\backslash G/K$, with respect to the Matsushima decomposition, where the class…

We investigate the deformation theory of a class of generalized calibrations in Riemannian manifolds for which the tangent bundle has reduced structure group U(n), SU(n), G_2 and Spin(7). For this we use the property of the associated…

We generalize the notion of rapid decay property for a group $G$ to pairs of groups $(G,H)$ where $H$ is a finitely generated subgroup of $G$, where typically the subgroup $H$ does not have rapid decay. We deduce some isomorphisms in…

We discuss `hd-compactifications' of $\SL(2,\bbK)$ for $\bbK=\bbC$ or $\bbR.$ These are compact manifolds with boundary on which both the Schwartz and the Harish-Chandra Schwartz spaces are shown to be relatively standard spaces of conormal…

Let $ S_g $ be a closed surface of genus $ g $ and let $ (\alpha, \beta) $ be a filling pair on $ S_g $; then $ i(\alpha, \beta) \geq 2g-1 $, where $ i $ is the (geometric) intersection number. Aougab and Huang demonstrated that…

We study the Decomposition Conjecture posed by Bar\'at and Thomassen (2006), which states that for every tree $T$ there exists a natural number $k_T$ such that, if $G$ is a $k_T$-edge-connected graph and $|E(T)|$ divides $|E(G)|$, then $G$…

In this paper, we prove there exist at least four geometrically distinct closed characteristics on every compact convex hypersurface $\Sg$ in $\R^8$. This gives a confirmed answer in the case $n=4$ to a long standing conjecture in…

Let $G$ be a non-elementary discrete subgroup of $\mathrm{Sp}(2,1)$. We show that if the sum of diagonal entries of each element of $G$ is a complex number, then $G$ is conjugate to a subgroup of $\mathrm{U}(2,1)$.

The category of locally compact quantum groups can be described as either Hopf $*$-homomorphisms between universal quantum groups, or as bicharacters on reduced quantum groups. We show how So{\l}tan's quantum Bohr compactification can be…

We extend the decomposition conjecture to 2d quantum field theories with a gauged $\text{Rep}(H)$ symmetry category for $H$ a finite-dimensional semisimple Hopf algebra with $\text{Rep}(G)$ trivially-acting and $\text{Vec}(\Gamma)$ the…

Let $G$ be a compact Lie group. We prove that if $V$ and $W$ are orthogonal $G$-representations such that $V^G=W^G=\{0\}$, then a $G$-equivariant map $S(V) \to S(W)$ exists provided that $\dim V^H \leq \dim W^H$ for any closed subgroup…

We use the structure lattice, introduced in Part I, to undertake a systematic study of the class $\mathscr S$ consisting of compactly generated, topologically simple, totally disconnected locally compact groups that are non-discrete. Given…

In a sequence of four papers, we prove the following results (via a unified approach) for all sufficiently large $n$: (i) [1-factorization conjecture] Suppose that $n$ is even and $D \geq 2\lceil n/4\rceil -1$. Then every $D$-regular graph…

We investigate the group contraction method for various space-time groups, including SO(3)->E_2, SO(3,1)->G_3, SO(5-h,h)->P(3,1) (h=1 or 2), and its consequences for representations of these groups. Following strictly quantum mechanical…

A subgroup $H$ of a finite group $G$ is said to satisfy $\Pi$-property in $G$ if for every chief factor $L/K$ of $G$, $|G/K:N_{G/K}(HK/K\cap L/K)|$ is a $\pi(HK/K\cap L/K)$-number. A subgroup $H$ of $G$ is called to be $\Pi$-supplemented in…

Cartan-Thullen theorem is a basic one in the theory of analytic functions of several complex variables. It states that for any open set $U$ of ${\mathbb C}^k$, the following conditions are equivalent: (a) $U$ is a domain of existence, (b)…

Given a connected graph $G$ on $n$ vertices and a positive integer $k\le n$, a subgraph of $G$ on $k$ vertices is called a $k$-subgraph in $G$. We design combinatorial approximation algorithms for finding a connected $k$-subgraph in $G$…

Let $D \subseteq A$ be a quasi-Cartan pair of algebras. Then there exists a unique discrete groupoid twist $\Sigma \to G$ whose twisted Steinberg algebra is isomorphic to $A$ in a way that preserves $D$. In this paper, we show there is a…

A triple space is a homogeneous space $G/H$ where $G=G_0\times G_0\times G_0$ is a threefold product group and $H\simeq G_0$ the diagonal subgroup of $G$. This paper concerns the geometry of the triple spaces with $G_0=\SL(2,\R)$,…
