A continuous family of non-outer conjugate aperiodic automorphisms whose crossed-products are all isomorphic is given on every interpolated free group factor. An explicit "duality" relationship between compact co-commutative Kac algebra…

Given 0 \leq r' \leq r \leq \infty, and d \in N, we construct a simple unital AH algebra A with stable rank one, and a pointwise outer action \alpha : Z^d \to Aut(A), such that rc(A)=r and rc (A \rtimes_{\alpha} Z^d)=r'.

Suppose $L$ is a semisimple Levi subgroup of a connected Lie group~$G$, $X$ is a Borel $G$-space with finite invariant measure, and $\alpha \colon X \times G \to \GL_n(\real)$ is a Borel cocycle. Assume $L$ has finite center, and that the…

We calculate geometric and homotopical (or stable) bordism rings associated to semi-free $S^1$ actions on complex manifolds, giving explicit generators for the geometric theory. The classification of semi-free actions with isolated fixed…

Let $\Lambda_0$ be an ordered abelian group. We show how an $\mathrm{ATF}(\mathbb{Z}\times\Lambda_0)$ group -- that is, a group admitting a free affine action without inversions on a $\mathbb{Z}\times\Lambda_0$-tree -- admits a natural…

We study actions of linear algebraic groups on central simple algebras using algebro-geometric techniques. Suppose an algebraic group G acts on a central simple algebra A of degree n. We are interested in questions of the following type:…

A coaction d of a locally compact group G on a C*-algebra A is maximal if a certain natural map from A times_d G times_{d hat} G onto A otimes K(L^2(G)) is an isomorphism. All dual coactions on full crossed products by group actions are…

Berend gives necessary and sufficient conditions on a $Z^r$-action $\alpha$ on a torus $T^d$ by toral automorphisms in order for every orbit be either finite or dense. One of these conditions is that on every common eigendirection of the…

We examine rigidity phenomena for representations of amenable operator algebras which have an ideal of compact operators. We establish that a generalized version of Kadison's conjecture on completely bounded homomorphisms holds for the…

For a finite alphabet $\mathcal{A}$ and shift $X\subseteq\mathcal{A}^{\mathbb{Z}}$ whose factor complexity function grows at most linearly, we study the algebraic properties of the automorphism group ${\rm Aut}(X)$. For such systems, we…

We show that an automorphism of an arbitrary CAT(0) cube complex either has a fixed point or preserves some combinatorial axis. It follows that when a group contains a distorted cyclic subgroup, it admits no proper action on a discrete…

This is a survey on the automorphism groups in various classes of affine algebraic surfaces and the algebraic group actions on such surfaces. Being infinite-dimensional, these automorphism groups share some important features of algebraic…

Every affine isometric action $\alpha$ of a group $G$ on a real Hilbert space gives rise to a nonsingular action $\hat{\alpha}$ of $G$ on the associated Gaussian probability space. In the recent paper [AIM19], several results on the…

A free action of a finite group on an odd-dimensional sphere is said to be almost linear if the action restricted to each cyclic or 2-hyperelementary subgroup is conjugate to a free linear action. We begin this survey paper by reviewing the…

In this paper we study the analyticity of the group action of the automorphism group $G$ of a formal module $\bar{F}$ of height 2 (defined over $\overline{\mathbb{F}}_q$) on the Lubin-Tate deformation space $X$ of $\bar{F}$. It is shown…

We define the decomposition property for partial actions of discrete groups on $C^*$-algebras. Decomposable partial systems appear naturally in practice, and many commonly occurring partial actions can be decomposed into partial actions…

We establish that particular quotients of the non-commutative Hardy algebras carry ergodic actions of convergent discrete subgroups of the group $\operatorname*{SU}(n,1)$ of automorphisms of the unit ball in $\mathbb{C}% ^{n}$. To do so, we…

We show that with few exceptions every local isometric automorphism of the group algebra $L^p(G)$ of a compact group $G$ is an isometric automorphism.

In this paper we prove a perturbative result for a class of $\mathbb Z^2$ actions on Heisenberg nilmanifolds, which have Diophantine properties. Along the way we prove cohomological rigidity and obtain a tame splitting for the cohomology…

The equivariant cohomology for actions of compact connected abelian groups and elementary abelian p-groups have been widely studied in the last decades. We study some of these results on actions of finite cyclic groups over a field of…
