We here present rudiments of an approach to geometric actions in noncommutative algebraic geometry, based on geometrically admissible actions of monoidal categories. This generalizes the usual (co)module algebras over Hopf algebras which…

The author proposes a method for investigating actions of finite groups on aspherical spaces. Complete homotopy classification of free actions of finite groups on aspherical spaces is obtained. Also there are some results about non-free…

For discrete groups G, we introduce equivariant Nielsen invariants. They are equivariant analogs of the Nielsen number and give lower bounds for the number of fixed point orbits in the G-homotopy class of an equivariant endomorphism f:X->X.…

This paper proves that there are no compact forms for a large class of homogeneous spaces admitting actions by higher-rank semisimple Lie groups. It builds on Zimmer's approach for studying such spaces using cocycle superrigidity. The proof…

We study linear actions of algebraic groups on smooth projective varieties X. A guiding goal for us is to understand the cohomology of "quotients" under such actions, by generalizing (from reductive to non-reductive group actions) existing…

It is by now well known that the Poincar\'e group acts on the Moyal plane with a twisted coproduct. Poincar\'e invariant classical field theories can be formulated for this twisted coproduct. In this paper we systematically study such a…

We study the restrictions, the strict fixed points, and the strict quotients of the partition complex $|\Pi_n|$, which is the $\Sigma_n$-space attached to the poset of proper nontrivial partitions of the set $\{1,\ldots,n\}$. We express the…

We extend the notion of Poincar\'e duality in KK-theory to the setting of quantum group actions. An important ingredient in our approach is the replacement of ordinary tensor products by braided tensor products. Along the way we discuss…

Let $X$ be a normal algebraic variety over a finitely generated field $k$ of characteristic zero, and let $\ell$ be a prime. Say that a continuous $\ell$-adic representation $\rho$ of $\pi_1^{\text{\'et}}(X_{\bar k})$ is arithmetic if there…

Let $T$ be a compact fibered $3$--manifold, presented as a mapping torus of a compact, orientable surface $S$ with monodromy $\psi$, and let $M$ be a compact Riemannian manifold. Our main result is that if the induced action $\psi^*$ on…

In this paper author proposes a construction of a universal space of type $K(\pi,1)$ such that any action (up to homotopy conjugation) of a given finite group $G$ on spaces of the same homotopy type is presented on the constructed space.…

We define an unstable equivariant motivic homotopy category for an algebraic group over a Noetherian base scheme. We show that equivariant algebraic $K$-theory is representable in the resulting homotopy category. Additionally, we establish…

We prove a partial converse to the main theorem of the author's previous paper "Proper affine actions: a sufficient criterion" (submitted; available at arXiv:1612.08942). More precisely, let $G$ be a semisimple real Lie group with a…

For a global field, local field, or finite field $k$ with infinite Galois group, we show that there can not exist a functor from the Morel--Voevodsky $\mathbb{A}^1$-homotopy category of schemes over $k$ to a genuine Galois equivariant…

We clarify the notion of effective equivalence and characterize geometrically the effectively equivalent permutation groups. In particular, we present examples showing that the latter do not correspond to affinely equivalent polytopes…

We prove a compactness result for classes of actions of many small categories on quantum compact metric spaces by Lipschitz linear maps, for the topology of the covariant Gromov-Hausdorff propinquity. In particular, our result applies to…

In this paper emphasis is placed on how the behavior of the solutions of a PDE is affected by the geometry of the generalized $m$-quasi-Einstein manifold, and vice versa. Considering a $n$-dimensional generalized $m$-quasi-Einstein manifold…

Let G be either a finite cyclic group of prime order or S^1. We find new relations between cohomology of a manifold (or a Poincare duality space) M with a G-action on it and cohomology of the fixed point set, M^G. Our main tool is the…

Suppose given a linearized action on a polarized complex projective manifold (M,L), and assume that the stable locus is non-empty. We study the leading asymptotics of the dimension of the equivariant summands appearing in the space of…

We prove global equivariant refinements of Miller's stable splittings of the infinite orthogonal, unitary and symplectic groups, and more generally of the spaces $O/O(m)$, $U/U(m)$ and $Sp/Sp(m)$. As such, our results encode compatible…
