We classify all non-degenerate skew-hermitian forms defined over certain local rings, not necessarily commutative, and study some of the fundamental properties of the associated unitary groups, including their orders when the ring in…

The orbital basis is natural when one needs to calculate the effect of local interactions or to unravel the role of orbital physics in the response to external probes. In systems with nonsymmorphic point groups, such as the iron-based…

We study a question of Matui and varations of it on minimal ample groupoids that are neither almost finite nor purely infinite. We first observe that there are already effective minimal ample transformation groupoids that are neither almost…

We construct a minimal topological action $\wp$ of a non-amenable group on a Cantor set $C$, which is non-uniquely ergodic and furthermore there exist ergodic invariant measures $\mu_1$ and $\mu_2$ such that $(\wp,C,\mu_1)$ and…

In this article, we study the algebraic and dynamical structure of certain normal subgroups of the quasi-isometry group of Euclidean space $QI(\mathbb{R}^n)$. For \[ H = \Big\{ [f] \in QI(\mathbb{R}^n) : \lim_{\|x\|\to\infty}…

Using Baire category techniques we prove that Araki-Woods factors are not classifiable by countable structures. As a result, we obtain a far reaching strengthening as well as a new proof of the well-known theorem of Woods that the…

A ring $A$ is called Hopfian if $A$ cannot be isomorphic to a proper homomorphic image $A/J$. $A$ is called Bassian if there cannot be an injection of $A$ into a proper homomorphic image $A/J$. We consider classes of Hopfian and Bassian…

We prove the following monotonicity result for the holonomy group: Given a sequence of metric connections converging in $C^0$ such that all its members have holonomy contained in a closed group $H$, also their limit connection needs to have…

In this paper, we explore a notion of nonabelian Hodge structure on the fundamental group of an algebraic variety. This is approach is compared to some alternative approaches due to Morgan, Hain and others. We also give criteria for a…

It is consistent with MA plus not CH that there is a locally connected hereditarily Lindelof compact space which is not metrizable.

This is a very brief but selfcontained review of the concept of quantum group symmetries and their anomalies. Remarkably, general constructions can be very simply illustrated on the standard harmonic oscillator which is shown to possess a…

We construct a family of Hermitian metrics on the Hopf surface $ \mathbb{S}^3\times \mathbb{S}^1$, whose fundamental classes represent distinct cohomology classes in the Aeppli cohomology group. These metrics are locally conformally…

Generalizing the notion of matched pair of groups, we define and study matched pairs of locally compact groupoids endowed with Haar systems, in order to give new examples of measured quantum groupoids.

Let $A$ be a commutative comodule algebra over a commutative bialgebra $H$. The group of invertible relative Hopf modules maps to the Picard group of $A$, and the kernel is described as a quotient group of the group of invertible grouplike…

Scarparo has constructed counterexamples to Matui's HK-conjecture. These counterexample and other known counterexamples are essentially principal but not principal. In the present paper, a counterexample to the HK-conjecture that is…

Nodal lines are symmetry-protected one-dimensional band degeneracies in momentum space, which can appear in numerous topological configurations such as nodal rings, chains, links, and knots. Very recently, non-Abelian topological physics…

Answering a question of Uspenskij, we prove that if $X$ is a closed manifold of dimension $2$ or higher or the Hilbert cube, then the universal minimal flow of $\mathrm{Homeo}(X)$ is not metrizable. In dimension $3$ or higher, we also show…

For second countable locally compact Hausdorff groupoids, the property of possessing a Haar system is preserved by equivalence.

We prove that every length space X is the orbit space (with the quotient metric) of an R-tree T via a free action of a locally free subgroup G(X) of isometries of X. The mapping f:T->X is a kind of generalized covering map called a URL-map…

The concept of topological gyrogroups is a generalization of a topological group. In this work, ones prove that a topological gyrogroup G is metrizable iff G has an {\omega}{\omega}-base and G is Frechet-Urysohn. Moreover, in topological…
