We introduce the notion of tracial amenability for actions of discrete groups on unital, tracial C$^*$-algebras, as a weakening of amenability where all the relevant approximations are done in the uniform trace norm. We characterize tracial…

Given a compact interval $I \subseteq \mathbb{R}$, and a function $f$ that is a product of a nonzero polynomial with a Gaussian, it will be shown that the translates $\{ f(\cdot - \lambda) : \lambda \in \Lambda \}$ are complete in $C(I)$ if…

We classify the translators to the mean curvature flow in the three-dimensional solvable group $Sol_3$ that are invariant under the action of a one-parameter group of isometries of the ambient space. In particular we show that $Sol_3$…

Let $S$ be a (topological) compact closed surface of genus two. We associate to each translation surface $(X,\omega) \in \mathcal{H}(2)\sqcup\mathcal{H}(1,1)$ a subgraph $\hat{\mathcal{C}}_{\rm cyl}$ of the curve graph of $S$. The vertices…

The SL(3,C)-representation variety R of a free group F arises naturally by considering surface group representations for a surface with boundary. There is a SL(3,C)-action on the coordinate ring of R by conjugation. The geometric points of…

We show that for each natural $p\geq 2$, the Lefschetz fixed point theorem is optimal when applied to ${\Bbb Z}^{p}$-actions by homeomorphisms on the three dimensional torus ${\Bbb T}^3$. More precisely, we show that for a spectrally…

We construct a non-abelian extension $\Gamma$ of $S^1$ by $\cy 3 \times \cy 3$, and prove that $\Gamma$ acts freely and smoothly on $S^{5} \times S^{5}$. This gives new actions on $S^{5} \times S^{5}$ for an infinite family $\cP$ of finite…
