We obtain the Plancherel theorem for the quotient of a simple Lie group of real rank one by a convex-cocompact discrete subgroup and its consequences for the spectrum of locally invariant differential operators on bundles over Kleinian…

The Atiyah-Bott Lefschetz Formula is a well-known formula for computing the equivariant index of an elliptic operator on a compact smooth manifold. We provide an analogue of this formula for the based loop group $\Omega SU(2)$ with respect…

Let $M$ be a compact manifold. and $D$ a Dirac type differential operator on $M$. Let $A$ be a $C^*$-algebra. Given a bundle $W$ of $A$-modules over $M$ (with connection), the operator $D$ can be twisted with this bundle. One can then use a…

We study the Balmer spectrum of the category of finite G-spectra for a compact Lie group G, extending the work for finite G by Strickland, Balmer-Sanders, Barthel-Hausmann-Naumann-Nikolaus-Noel-Stapleton and others. We give a description of…

In ["Illumination of convex bodies with many symmetries", Mathematika 63 (2017)], Tikhomirov verified the Hadwiger-Boltyanski Illumination Conjecture for the class of 1-symmetric convex bodies of sufficiently large dimension. We propose an…

We reconsider work of Elkalla on subnormal subgroups of 3-manifold groups, giving essentially algebraic arguments that extend to the case of $PD_3$-groups and group pairs. However the argument relies on an $L^2$-Betti number hypothesis…

We study the relationship between the arithmetic and the spectrum of the Laplacian for manifolds arising from congruent arithmetic subgroups of SL(1,D), where D is an indefinite quaternion division algebra defined over a number field F. We…

We provide new conditions for the Strong Atiyah conjecture to lift to finite group extensions. In particular, we show cocompact special groups satisfy these conditions, so the Strong Atiyah conjecture holds for virtually cocompact special…

Our paper begins with a revision of spectral theory for commutative Banach algebras, which enables us to prove the $L^p_{\omega}-$conjecture for locally compact abelian groups. We follow an alternative approach to the one known in the…

We prove that the lamplighter group admits an injective Lipschitz map to any finitely generated metabelian group which is not virtually nilpotent. This implies that finitely generated metabelian groups satisfy the ``analytically…

We calculate certain ext-groups between modules for a linear algebraic group. The results are in agreement with the Lusztig conjecture.

We generalize Illusie's definition of the Atiyah class to complexes with quasi-coherent cohomology on arbitrary algebraic stacks. We show that this gives a global obstruction theory for moduli stacks of complexes in algebraic geometry…

Let $G$ be a countable group that is the fundamental group of a graph of groups with finite edge groups and vertex groups that satisfy the strong Atiyah conjecture over $K \subseteq \mathbb{C}$ a field closed under complex conjugation.…

Inspired by work of Szymik and Wahl on the homology of Higman-Thompson groups, we establish a general connection between ample groupoids, topological full groups, algebraic K-theory spectra and infinite loop spaces, based on the…

We show that the inert subgroups of the lamplighter group fall into exactly five commensurability classes. The result is then connected with the theory of totally disconnected locally compact groups and with algebraic entropy.

In this article, we completely characterize the asymptotic behavior of conjugacy separability for the lamplighter groups. More generally, we give exponential upper and lower bounds for all wreath products of finitely generated abelian…

We define a notion of "Frobenius pair", which is a mild generalization of the notion of Frobenius object in a monoidal category. We then show that Atiyah duality for smooth manifolds can be encapsulated in the statement that a certain…

We construct graph selectors for compact exact Lagrangians in the cotangent bundle of an orientable, closed manifold. The construction combines Lagrangian spectral invariants developed by Oh and results by Abouzaid about the Fukaya category…

We show that the associated Lie algebra of the Malcev $\mathbb{Q}$-completion of the lamplighter group is the pronilpotent completion of the lamplighter Lie algebra. We also prove that the homology of this completed Lie algebra is of…

In this paper we continue the study of group representations which are counterexamples to the Ize conjecture. As in the previous papers by Lauterbach [14] and Lauterbach & Matthews [15] we find new infinite series of finite groups leading…
