We study free and compact group actions on unital C*-algebras. In particular, we provide a complete classification theory of these actions for compact Abelian groups and explain its relation to the classical classification theory of…

Motivated by the work of Leininger on hyperbolic equivalence of homotopy classes of closed curves on surfaces, we investigate a similar phenomenon for free groups. Namely, we study the situation when two elements $g,h$ in a free group $F$…

Let $X$ be a smooth compact manifold and $v$ a vector field on $X$ which admits a smooth function $f: X \to \mathbf R$ such that $df(v) > 0$. Let $\partial X$ be the boundary of $X$. We denote by $C^\infty(X)$ the algebra of smooth…

Building on recent work of Robertson and Steger, we associate a C*-algebra to a combinatorial object which may be thought of as a higher rank graph. This C*-algebra is shown to be isomorphic to that of the associated path groupoid.…

We study equivalence relations that arise from translation actions $\Gamma\curvearrowright G$ which are associated to dense embeddings $\Gamma<G$ of countable groups into second countable locally compact groups. Assuming that $G$ is simply…

By studying classical realizations of the sl(2,R) algebra in a two dimensional phase space $(q,\pi)$, we have derived a continuous family of new actions for free anyons in 2+1 dimensions. For the case of light-like spin vector $(S_\mu S^\mu…

Any compact surface supports a continuous action of the orientation preserving affine group of the real line which is fixed point free (Lima and Plante). It is generally admitted that this action can be taken smooth although it is not easy…

This paper concerns the class of contractible open 3-manifolds which are ``locally finite strong end sums'' of eventually end-irreducible Whitehead manifolds. It is shown that whenever a 3-manifold in this class is a covering space of…

We show that for $q\in (0,1),$ the $C^{*}$-algebra $SU_{q}(3)$ is isomorphic a rank $2$ graph $C^{*}$-algebra (in the sense of Pask and Kumjian). This graph is derived by passing the to the limit $q\to 0$ for a set of generators of…

We consider a free action of an Ore semigroup on a higher-rank graph, and the induced action by endomorphisms of the $C^*$-algebra of the graph. We show that the crossed product by this action is stably isomorphic to the $C^*$-algebra of a…

An involution on a semigroup S (or any algebra with an underlying associative binary operation) is a function f:S->S that satisfies f(xy)=f(y)f(x) and f(f(x))=x for all x,y in S. The set I(S) of all such involutions on S generates a…

An additive group action on an affine 3 -space over a complex Dedekind domain A is said to be twin-triangular if it is generated by a locally nilpotent derivation of A[y,z,t] of the form rd/dy+p(y)d/dz + q(y)d/dt, where r belongs to A and…

We show that every rank two $p$-group acts freely and smoothly on a product of two spheres. This follows from a more general construction: given a smooth action of a finite group $G$ on a manifold $M$, we construct a smooth free action on…

We consider the functor C that to a unital C*-algebra A assigns the partial order set C(A) of its commutative C*-subalgebras ordered by inclusion. We investigate how some C*-algebraic properties translate under the action of C to…

A $\mathbb{C}^{*}$-action on a projective variety $X$ is said to be of Euler type at a nonsingular fixed point $x$ if the isotropy action of $\mathbb{C}^{*}$ on $T_{x}X$ is by scalar multiplication. In this paper, it's proven that a smooth…
