The purpose of this paper is to begin an exploration of connections between the Baum-Connes conjecture in operator $\K$-theory and the geometric representation theory of reductive Lie groups. Our initial goal is very modest, and we shall…
We give the first examples of \'etale (non-Hausdorff) groupoids $\mathcal G$ whose $C^*$-algebras contain singular elements that cannot be approximated by singular elements in $\mathcal C_c(\mathcal G)$. We provide two examples: one is a…
A major direction in the theory of cluster algebras is to construct (quantum) cluster algebra structures on the (quantized) coordinate rings of various families of varieties arising in Lie theory. We prove that all algebras in a very large…
We show that the Baum-Connes morphism twisted by a non-unitary representation, defined in [GA08], is an isomorphism for a large class of groups satisfying the Baum-Connes conjecture. Such class contains all the real semi-simple Lie groups,…
A natural scheme is established for the approximation of quantum Levy processes on locally compact quantum groups by quantum random walks. We work in the somewhat broader context of discrete approximations of completely positive quantum…
We introduce and study the notions of boundary actions and of the Furstenberg boundary of a discrete quantum group. As for classical groups, properties of boundary actions turn out to encode significant properties of the operator algebras…
Meyer and Nest showed that the Baum--Connes map is equivalent to a map on $K$-theory of two different crossed products. This approach is strongly categorial in method since its bases is to regard Kasparov's theory $KK^G$ as a triangulated…
In this paper, we consider discrete groups in ${\rm PGL}_d(\mathbb{R})$ acting convex co-compactly on a properly convex domain in real projective space. For such groups, we establish an analogue of the well known flat torus theorem for…
In this paper we prove that Brou\'{e}'s abelian defect group conjecture is true for the finite odd-dimensional orthogonal groups $\SO_{2n+1}(q)$ at linear primes with $q$ odd. We first make use of the reduction theorem of…
The Baum-Connes map for finitely generated free abelian groups is a K-theoretic analogue of the Fourier-Mukai transform from algebraic geometry. We describe this K-theoretic transform in the language of topological correspondences, and…
We classify all compact quantum groups whose C*-algebra sits inside that of the free unitary quantum groups $U_{N}^{+}$. In other words, we classify all discrete quantum subgroups of $\widehat{U}_{N}^{+}$, thereby proving a quantum variant…
We define quantum automorphism groups of a wide range of discrete structures. The central tool for their construction is a generalisation of the Tannaka-Krein reconstruction theorem. For any direct sum of matrix algebras $M$, and any…
The notion of a quantum family of maps has been introduced in the framework of C*-algebras. As in the classical case, one may consider a quantum family of maps preserving additional structures (e.g. quantum family of maps preserving a…
This paper constitutes a first step in the author's program to investigate the question of when a homotopy of 2-cocycles $\omega = \{\omega_t\}_{t \in [0,1]}$ on a locally compact Hausdorff groupoid $\mathcal{G}$ induces an isomorphism of…
We introduce and investigate several quantum group dynamical notions for the purpose of studying $C^*$-simplicity of discrete quantum groups via the theory of boundary actions. In particular we define a quantum analogue of Powers' Averaging…
We introduce and study a number of invariants of locally compact quantum groups defined by their scaling and modular groups and the spectrum of their modular elements. Focusing mainly on compact quantum groups we consider the question…
Let $G$ be a connected semisimple real algebraic group and $\Gamma<G$ be its Zariski dense discrete subgroup. We prove that if $\Gamma\backslash G$ admits any finite Bowen-Margulis-Sullivan measure, then $\Gamma$ is virtually a product of…
We consider the {\it concentration functions problem} for discrete quantum groups; we prove that if $\mathbb{G}$ is a discrete quantum group, and $\mu$ is an irreducible state in $l^1(\mathbb{G})$, then the convolution powers $\mu^n$,…
We discuss an analogon to the Farrell-Jones Conjecture for homotopy algebraic K-theory. In particular, we prove that if a group G acts on a tree and all isotropy groups satisfy this conjecture, then G satisfies this conjecture. This result…
Let G be a locally compact group and rho a non-unitary finite dimensional representation of G. We consider tensor products of rho by some unitary representations of G in order to define two Banach algebras analogous to the group…
