Let $p$ be an odd prime and let $\rho:\mathbb{Z}/p\rightarrow\operatorname{GL}_n(\mathbb{Z})$ be an action of $\mathbb{Z}/p$ on a lattice and let $\Gamma:=\mathbb{Z}^n\rtimes_{\rho}\mathbb{Z}/p$ be the corresponding semidirect product. The…

We introduce and study natural two-parameter families of quantum groups motivated on one hand by the liberations of classical orthogonal groups and on the other by quantum isometry groups of the duals of the free groups. Specifically, for…

We prove several results about groups of finite Morley rank without unipotent p-torsion: p-torsion always occurs inside tori, Sylow p-subgroups are conjugate, and p is not the minimal prime divisor of our approximation to the ``Weyl…

Let $D$ be an odd square-free positive integer and $C$ a divisor of $D$. For any quadratic character $\chi$ modulo $C$, we prove that the $\chi$-part of the group $J_0(DC)_\text{tor}$ of torsion points of $J_0(DC)$ coincides with the…

We prove a category equivalence between algebraic supergroups and Harish-Chandra pairs over a commutative ring which is $2$-torsion free. The result is applied to re-construct the Chevalley $\mathbb{Z}$-supergroups constructed by Fioresi…

We classify Jordan $G$-tori, where $G$ is any torsion-free abelian group. Using the Zelmanov prime structure theorem, such a class divides into three types, namely, {the Hermitian type, the Clifford type and the Albert type.} We concretely…

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 establish Flat Torus Theorem type results for groups acting on small cancellation complexes satisfying C(6), C(4)-T(4) and C(3)-T(6) conditions. For C(3)-T(6) complexes the result closely parallels the CAT(0) setting. For C(6) complexes…

Let $F=\mathbb{F}_q(T)$ be the field of rational functions with $\mathbb{F}_q$-coefficients, and $A=\mathbb{F}_q[T]$ be the subring of polynomials. Let $D$ be a division quaternion algebra over $F$ which is split at $1/T$. Given an…

We define the notion of complex stratification by quasifolds and show that such spaces occur as complex quotients by certain nonclosed subgroups of tori associated to convex polytopes. The spaces thus obtained provide a natural…

It is well known that a nontrivial commutator in a free group is never a proper power. We prove a theorem that generalizes this fact and has several worthwhile corollaries. For example, an equation $[ x_1, y_1] \ldots [ x_k, y_k] = z^n$,…

Compact connected abelian groups, or protori, have intrinsic structural characteristics that present for the entire category. In the case of finite-dimensional torus-free protori, The Resolution Theorem for Compact Abelian Groups sets the…

This is the first of a series of papers where we develop a theory of total positivity for loop groups. In this paper, we completely describe the totally nonnegative part of the polynomial loop group GL_n(\R[t,t^{-1}]), and for the formal…

Let $\breve{K}$ be a complete discrete valuation field with an algebraically closed residue field ${k}$ and ring of integers $\breve{{O}}$. Let $T$ be a torus defined over $\breve{K}$. Let $L^+T$ denote the connected commutative…

We construct a 2+1 dimensional spacetime of constant curvature whose spatial topology is that of a torus with one asymptotic region attached. It is also a black hole whose event horizon spins with respect to infinity. An observer entering…

A problem of universality in simulation of evolution of quantum system and in theory of quantum computations is related with the possibility of expression or approximation of arbitrary unitary transformation by composition of specific…

This article announces joint work with Frank Connolly and Jim Davis. We generalize our classification of pseudo-free involutions on the n-torus, by studying the action of the associated infinite group with torsion in the universal cover.…

In this paper, we will introduce Quantum Toric Varieties which are (non-commutative) generalizations of ordinary toric varieties where all the tori of the classical theory are replaced by quantum tori. Quantum toric geometry is the…

This is an overview of recent results aimed at developing a geometry of noncommutative tori with real multiplication, with the purpose of providing a parallel, for real quadratic fields, of the classical theory of elliptic curves with…

A charged particle in a uniform magnetic field in a two-dimensional torus has a discrete noncommutative translation symmetry instead of a continuous commutative translation symmetry. We study topology and symmetry of a particle in a…
