We prove several results concerning quasi-bialgebra morphisms $\mathcal{D}^\omega(G)\to\mathcal{D}^\eta(H)$ of twisted group doubles. We take a particular focus on the isomorphisms which are simultaneously isomorphisms…
We define united K-theory for real C*-algebras, generalizing Bousfield's topological united K-theory. United K-theory incorporates three functors -- real K-theory, complex K-theory, and self-conjugate K-theory -- and the natural…
We consider the C*-algebras O_2^q and A_2^q generated, respectively, by isometries s_1, s_2 satisfying the relation s_1^* s_2 = q s_2 s_1^* with |q| < 1 (the deformed Cuntz relation), and by isometries s_1, s_2 satisfying the relation s_2…
In this paper, we show how geometry plays in the study of the Furstenberg conjecture (refer to~\cite{F}). Let $p>1$ and $q>1$ be two relative prime positive integers. We prove that a non-atomic $p$- and $q$-invariant measure having balanced…
Let $\Gamma$ be a smooth curve or finite disjoint union of smooth curves in the plane and $\Lambda$ be any subset of the plane. Let $\mathcal X(\Gamma)$ be the space of all finite complex-valued Borel measures in the plane which are…
Let S_n be the symmetric group on n-letters. Fix n>5. Given any nontrivial $\alpha,\beta\in S_n$, we prove that the product $\alpha^{S_n}\beta^{S_n}$ of the conjugacy classes $\alpha^{S_n}$ and $\beta^{S_n}$ is never a conjugacy class.…
Let $\gamma = (\gamma_1,...,\gamma_N)$, $N \geq 2$, be a system of proper contractions on a complete metric space. Then there exists a unique self-similar non-empty compact subset $K$. We consider the union ${\mathcal G} = \cup_{i=1}^N…
We consider the commutativity problem for the Berezin transform on weighted Fock spaces. Given a real number $m>0$, for every $\alpha >0$ we denote by $B_{\alpha}$ the Berezin transform associated to the measure $\mu_{m}^{\alpha}$ with…
We show that a semisimple Hopf algebra A is group theoretical if and only if its Drinfeld double is a twisting of the Dijkgraaf-Pasquier-Roche quasi-Hopf algebra D^{omega}(Sigma), for some finite group Sigma and some 3-cocycle omega on…
A function on a discrete group is weakly combable if its discrete derivative with respect to a combing can be calculated by a finite state automaton. A weakly combable function is bicombable if it is Lipschitz in both the left and right…
A classical result in the study of Ginzburg-Landau equations is that, for Dirichlet or Neumann boundary conditions, if a sequence of functions has energy uniformly bounded on a logarithmic scale then we can find a subsequence whose…
We study conditions that will ensure that a crossed product of a C*-algebra by a discrete exact group is purely infinite (simple or non-simple). We are particularly interested in the case of a discrete non-amenable exact group acting on a…
We study C*-algebras associated with subsemigroups of groups. For a large class of such semigroups including positive cones in quasi-lattice ordered groups and left Ore semigroups, we describe the corresponding semigroup C*-algebras as…
Let $\alpha \in (0,2)$ and let $\beta>0$. Fix $-\pi<\varphi\leq \pi$ such that $|\varphi|>\alpha \pi/2$. We obtain asymptotic upper bounds on the Fourier transform of the radially symmetric tempered distribution \begin{equation*}…
We show that a $KK$-equivalence between two unital $C^*$-algebras produces a correspondence between their DG categories of finitely generated projective modules which is a $\mathbf{K}_*$-equivalence, where $\mathbf{K}_*$ is Waldhausen's…
A pair of adjoint functors $(F,G)$ is called a Frobenius pair of the second type if $G$ is a left adjoint of $\beta F\alpha$ for some category equivalences $\alpha$ and $\beta$. Frobenius ring extensions of the second kind provide examples…
Let $G$ be a linear algebraic group over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p\geq 0$. We show that if $H_1$ and $H_2$ are connected subgroups of $G$ such that $H_1$ and $H_2$ have a common maximal unipotent subgroup and…
Let $A$ be a separable simple exact ${\cal Z}$-stable $C^*$-algebra. We show that the unitay group of ${\tilde A}$ has the cancellation property. If $A$ has continuous scale, the Cuntz semigroup of $\tilde A$ has the strict comparison…
Let $\beta>1$ be a real number and $M: \mathbb{R}\to {\rm GL(\CC^d)}$ be a uniformly almost periodic matrix-valued function. We study the asymptotic behavior of the product $$ P_n(x) =M(\beta^{n-1}x)... M(\beta x) M(x). $$ Under some…
Suppose $A$ is a $C^*$-algebra and $H$ is a $C^*$-correspondence over $A$. If $H$ is regular in the sense that the left action of $A$ is faithful and is given by compact operators, then we compute the $K$-theory of $\mathcal{O}_A(H) \rtimes…
