We further investigate the weak topology generated by the irreducible unitary representations of a group $G$. A deep result due to Ernest \cite{Ernest1971} and Hughes \cite{Hughes1973} asserts that every weakly compact subset of a locally…

A topological group $G$ is extremely amenable if every continuous action of $G$ on a compact space has a fixed point. Using the concentration of measure techniques developed by Gromov and Milman, we prove that the group of automorphisms of…

In this note, we consider the concentration function problem for a continuous action of a locally compact group $G$ on a locally compact Hausdorff space $X$. We prove a necessary and sufficient condition for the concentration functions of a…

Analytic properties of right topological groups have been extensively studied in the compact admissible case (i.e when the group has a dense topological center). This was inspired by the existence of a Haar measure on such groups. In this…

The \emph{Bohr compactification} of an arbitrary topological group $G$ is defined as the group compactification $(bG,b)$ with the following universal property: for every continuous homomorphism $h$ from $G$ into a compact group $K$ there is…

Let $\mathcal{F} $ be a pointwise almost periodic decomposition of a compact metrizable space $X$. Then $\mathcal{F} $ is $R$-closed if and only if $\hat{\mathcal{F}} $ is usc. Moreover, if there is a finite index normal subgroup $H$ of an…

Consider the following property of a topological group G: every continuous affine G-action on a Hilbert space with a bounded orbit has a fixed point. We prove that this property characterizes amenability for locally compact sigma-compact…

Topological measures and deficient topological measures generalize Borel measures and correspond to certain non-linear functionals. We study integration with respect to deficient topological measures on locally compact spaces. Such an…

In this paper, we study the analytic continuation to complex time of the Hamiltonian flow of certain $G\times T$-invariant functions on the cotangent bundle of a compact connected Lie group $G$ with maximal torus $T$. Namely, we will take…

A compact Lie group G and a faithful complex representation V determine a Sato-Tate measure, defined as the direct image of Haar measure on G with respect to the character of V. We give a necessary and sufficient condition for a Sato-Tate…

A topological group $G$ is called extremely amenable if every continuous action of $G$ on a compact space has a fixed point. This concept is linked with geometry of high dimensions (concentration of measure). We show that a von Neumann…

Let $M$ be a finite volume analytic pseudo-Riemannian manifold that admits an isometric $G$-action with a dense orbit, where $G$ is a connected non-compact simple Lie group. For low-dimensional $M$, i.e. $\dim(M) < 2\dim(G)$, when the…

Let $G$ be a locally compact group. Then for every $G$-space $X$ the maximal $G$-proximity $\beta_G$ can be characterized by the maximal topological proximity $\beta$ as follows: $$ A \ \overline{\beta_G} \ B \Leftrightarrow \exists V \in…

Let $\mathcal{G}$ be a locally compact $\sigma$-compact Hausdorff ample groupoid on a compact space. In this paper, we further examine the (ubiquitous) fiberwise amenability introduced by the author and Jianchao Wu for $\mathcal{G}$. We…

Let $G$ be a countable residually finite group (for instance $\mathbb{F}_2$) and let $\overleftarrow{G}$ be a totally disconnected metric compactification of $G$ equipped with the action of $G$ by left multiplication. For every $r\geq 1$ we…

Let $G$ and $H$ be locally compact groups with fixed two-side-invariant Haar measures. A polyhomomorphism $G\to H$ is a closed subgroup $R\subset G\times H$ with a fixed Haar measure, whose marginals on $G$ and $H$ are dominated by the Haar…

We prove the following rigidity result for the Tonelli Hamiltonians. Let T * M be the cotangent bundle of a closed manifold M endowed with its usual symplectic form. Let (F\_n) be a sequence of Tonelli Hamiltonians that C^0 converges on the…

Using the notion of complete compactness introduced by H. Saar, we define completely almost periodic functionals on completely contractive Banach algebras. We show that, if $(M,\Gamma)$ is a Hopf--von Neumann algebra with $M$ injective,…

We study the general form of isomorphisms on the algebra of compactly supported complex-valued continuous functions defined on a locally compact Hausdorff space (the proof of which works for the algebra of $C^k-$differentiable functions on…
