Let $T$ be a linear operator that, for some $p_1\in(1,\infty)$, is bounded on $L^{p_1}(\tilde w)$ for all $\tilde w\in A_{p_1}(\mathbb R^d)$ and in addition compact on $L^{p_1}(w_1)$ for some $w_1\in A_{p_1}(\mathbb R^d)$. Then $T$ is…

We define an integral form of the deformed W-algebra of type gl_r, and construct its action on the K-theory groups of moduli spaces of rank r stable sheaves on a smooth projective surface S, under certain assumptions. Our construction…

Let G be a locally compact, Hausdorff groupoid in which s is a local homeomorphism and the unit space is totally disconnected. Assume there is a continuous cocycle c from G into a discrete group $\Gamma$. We show that the collection A(G) of…

A locally compact contraction group is a pair (G,f) where G is a locally compact group and f an automorphism of G which is contractive in the sense that the forward orbit under f of each g in G converges to the neutral element e, as n tends…

For a topological group $G$, amenability can be characterized by the amenability of the convolution Banach algebra $L^1(G)$. Here a Banach algebra $A$ is called amenable if every bounded derivation from $A$ into any dual--type…

We prove that, given a discrete group $G$, and $1 \leq p < \infty$, the algebra of $p$-convolution operators $CV_p(G)$ is weak*-simple, in the sense of having no non-trivial weak*-closed ideals, if and only if $G$ is an ICC group. This…

We introduce a new version $kk^{\rm alg}$ of bivariant $K$-theory that is defined on the category of all locally convex algebras. A motivating example is the Weyl algebra $W$, i.e. the algebra generated by two elements satisfying the…

Let $G$ be a connected reductive complex algebraic group with a maximal torus $T$. We denote by $\Lambda$ the cocharacter lattice of $(T,G)$. Let $\Lambda^+ \subset \Lambda$ be the submonoid of dominant coweights. For $\lambda \in…

For any Calder\'on-Zygmund operator $ T$, any weight $ w$, and $ \alpha >1$, the operator $ T$ is bounded as a map from $ L ^{1} (M _{ L \log\log L (\log\log\log L) ^{\alpha } } w )$ into weak-$L^1(w)$. The interest in questions of this…

The constraints proposed recently by Bershadsky to produce $W^l_n$ algebras are a mixture of first and second class constraints and are degenerate. We show that they admit a first-class subsystem from which they can be recovered by…

The problem of the existence of non-pseudo-$\aleph_1$-compact $\mathbb R$-factorizable groups is studied. It is proved that any such group is submetrizable and has weight larger than $\omega_1$. Closely related results concerning the…

Let $V$ be a finite dimensional complex vector space and $W\subset \GL(V)$ be a finite complex reflection group. Let $V^{\reg}$ be the complement in $V$ of the reflecting hyperplanes. A classical conjecture predicts that $V^{\reg}$ is a…

In this paper we introduce Hausdorff locally convex algebra topologies on subalgebras of the whole algebra of nonlinear generalized functions. These topologies are strong duals of Fr\'echet-Schwartz space topologies and even strong duals of…

Let $G$ be a group which is either virtually soluble or virtually free, and let $\omega$ be a weight on $G$. We prove that, if $G$ is infinite, then there is some maximal left ideal of finite codimension in the Beurling algebra $\ell^1(G,…

Starting with a $W^{*}$-algebra $M$ we use the inverse system obtained by cutting down $M$ by its (central) projections to define an inverse limit of $W^{*}$-algebras, and show that how this pro-$W^{*}$-algebra encodes the local structure…

We first prove that every AF-algebra is weakly central, thereby resolving a question left open by Archbold--Gogi\'c. We then establish a new characterization of weak centrality for unital $C^*$-algebras in terms of $C(X)$-algebras. The…

We construct a class of non-weight modules over the twisted $N=2$ superconformal algebra $\T$. Let $\mathfrak{h}=\C L_0\oplus\C G_0$ be the Cartan subalgebra of $\T$, and let $\mathfrak{t}=\C L_0$ be the Cartan subalgebra of even part…

In this paper, we develop and study the theory of weighted fundamental groups of weighted simplicial complexes. When all weights are 1, the weighted fundamental group reduces to the usual fundamental group as a special case. We also study…

Affine W-algebras are a somewhat complicated family of (topological) associative algebras associated with a semisimple Lie algebra, quantizing functions on the algebraic loop space of Kostant's slice. They have attracted a great deal of…

We call a finite-dimensional complex Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ strongly rigid if its universal enveloping algebra $\Ug$ is rigid as an associative algebra, i.e. every formal associative deformation is equivalent to the trivial deformation.…
