Given a two-variable function $f$ without critical points and a compact region $R$ bounded by two level curves of $f$, this note proves that the integral over $R$ of the second-order directional derivative of $f$ in the tangential…

We give complete descriptions of the tracial states on both the universal and reduced crossed products of a C*-dynamical system consisting of a unital C*-algebra and a discrete group. In particular, we also answer the question of when the…

We use Bieri-Strebel invariants to determine when a normal fibre product in the product of two finitely presented groups is finitely presented. We give conditions that imply and in some cases characterize the existence of such finitely…

Let $p$ be an odd prime, and let $a$ be an integer not divisible by $p$. When $m$ is a positive integer with $p\equiv1\pmod{2m}$ and $2$ is an $m$th power residue modulo $p$, we determine the value of the product $\prod_{k\in…

We show that for any countable discrete maximally almost periodic group $G$ and any UHF algebra $A$, there exists a strongly outer product type action $\alpha$ of $G$ on $A$. We also show the existence of countable discrete almost abelian…

The role of Spaltenstein varieties in the tensor product for GL is explained. In particular a direct (non-combinatorial) proof of the fact that the number of irreducible components of a Spaltenstein variety is equal to a…

We define the tangential derivative, a notion of directional derivative which is invariant under diffeomorphisms. In particular this derivative is invariant under changes of chart and is thus well-defined for functions defined on a…

This work is the final version of my master thesis. Many, but not all of its key results are already available as a preprint with Chiara Esposito and Stefan Waldmann on arxiv.org under the title "Convergence of the Gutt Star Product", which…

Let $G$ be a second countable, locally compact groupoid with Haar system, and let $\mathcal{A}$ be a bundle of $C^{\ast}$-algebras defined over the unit space of $G$ on which $G$ acts continuously. We determine conditions under which the…

We characterize when the finite Cartesian product of central sets near idempotent is central near idempotent. Moreover, we provide a partial characterization for the infinite Cartesian product of the same. Then, we study the abundance of…

Given a simply connected manifold M such that its cochain algebra, C^\star(M), is a pure Sullivan dga, this paper considers curved deformations of the algebra C_\star({\Omega}M) and consider when the category of curved modules over these…

We study the existence of various types of gradings on Lie algebras, such as Carnot gradings or gradings in positive integers, and prove that the existence of such gradings is invariant under extensions of scalars. As an application, we…

Given a partial action \alpha of a group G on an associative algebra A we consider the crossed product A x_\alpha G. Using the algebras of multipliers of ideals of A we prove that A x_\alpha G is associative, provided that all ideals of A…

In this paper, we consider some non-weight modules over the Lie algebra of Weyl type. First, we determine the modules whose restriction to $U(\frak h)$ are free of rank $1$ over the Lie algebra of differential operators on the circle. Then…

Let $g_e$ be the centraliser of a nilpotent element $e$ in a finite dimensional simple Lie algebra $g$ of rank $l$ over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0. We investigate the algebra $S(g_e)^{g_e}$ of symmetric invariants of…

We prove a theorem of splitting for the nonabelian tensor product $L \otimes N$ of a pair $(L,N)$ of Lie algebras $L$ and $N$ in terms of its diagonal ideal $L \square N$ and of the nonabelian exterior product $L \wedge N$. A similar…

We show that every separable simple tracially approximately divisible $C^*$-algebra has strict comparison, is either purely infinite, or has stable rank one. As a consequence, we show that every (non-unital) finite simple ${\cal Z}$-stable…

Let $X$ be a mildly singular Fano variety such that the tangent sheaf is a direct sum. We show that the direct factors are algebraically integrable, so the infinitesimal decomposition induces a product structure on a quasi-\'etale cover of…

We discuss the problem of the existence of a regular invariant Lagrangian for a given system of invariant second-order differential equations on a Lie group $G$, using approaches based on the Helmholtz conditions. Although we deal with the…

Let $A$ be an infinite-dimensional stably finite simple unital C*-algebra, let $G$ be a finite group, and let $\alpha\colon G\rightarrow \mathrm{Aut}(A)$ be an action of $G$ on $A$ which has the weak tracial Rokhlin property. We prove that…
