We establish a new pointwise estimate for a class of rough operators in the setting of metric measure spaces endowed with a measure which is Ahlfors regular. This pointwise inequality can be divided in two steps: the first one relies in a…

Let $\G$ be a locally compact group satisfying some technical requirements and $\wG$ its unitary dual. Using the theory of twisted crossed product $C^*$-algebras, we develop a twisted global quantization for symbols defined on $\G\times\wG$…

Indicator functions mentioned in the title are constructed on an arbitrary nondiscrete locally compact Abelian group of finite dimension. Moreover, they can be obtained by small perturbation from any indicator function fixed beforehand. In…

We study graph products of groups from the viewpoint of measured group theory. We first establish a full measure equivalence classification of graph products of countably infinite groups over finite simple graphs with no transvection and no…

Let $G$ be a countable discrete group with an orthogonal representation $\alpha$ on a real Hilbert space $H$. We prove $L_p$ Poincar\'e inequalities for the group measure space $L_\infty(\Omega_H,\gamma)\rtimes G$, where both the group…

We show that for a finite group $G$, the commuting probability of $G$ can be explicitly bounded from below in a nontrivial way by a function in the maximum fraction of elements inverted resp. squared by an automorphism of $G$. Using these…

We undertake a detailed study of the sets of multiplicity in a second countable locally compact group $G$ and their operator versions. We establish a symbolic calculus for normal completely bounded maps from the space $\mathcal{B}(L^2(G))$…

In this paper, we prove the existence of a particular diagonalization for normal bounded operators defined on subspaces of $L^2(\mathfrak{S})$ where $\mathfrak{S}$ is a second countable LCA group. The subspaces where the operators act are…

We show how a number of well-known uncertainty principles for the Fourier transform, such as the Heisenberg uncertainty principle, the Donoho--Stark uncertainty principle, and Meshulam's non-abelian uncertainty principle, have little to do…

The notion of polarity between sets, well-known from convex geometry, is a geometric version of the Fourier transform. We exploit this analogy to propose a new simple definition of quantum indeterminacy, using what we call "hbar-polar…

Let $L$ be the distinguished Laplacian on the Iwasawa $AN$ group associated with a semisimple Lie group $G$. Assume $F$ is a Borel function on $\mathbb{R}^+$. We give a condition on $F$ such that the kernels of the functions $F(L)$ are…

We show that Hardy's uncertainty principle can be reformulated in such a way that it has an analogue even for compact Lie groups and symmetric spaces of compact type.

Using ideas from Jones, lattice gauge theory and loop quantum gravity, we construct 1+1-dimensional gauge theories on a spacetime cylinder. Given a separable compact group $G$, we construct localized time-zero fields on the spatial torus as…

We generalise a result of Hedenmalm to show that if a function $f$ on $\mathbb{R}$ is such that $\int_{\mathbb{R}^2} \bigl|f(x) \, \hat f(y)\bigr| \,e^{\lambda \left|xy\right|} \,dx\,dy = O( (1-\lambda)^{-N} )$ as $\lambda \to 1-$, then $f$…

It is well known that if a function $f$ satisfies $$\|f(x) e^{\pi \alpha |x|^2}\|_p + \| \widehat{f}(\xi) e^{\pi \alpha |\xi|^2} \|_q<\infty \qquad\qquad\qquad(*)$$ with $\alpha=1$ and $1\le p,q<\infty$, then $f\equiv 0.$ We prove that if…

The sign uncertainty principle of Bourgain, Clozel & Kahane asserts that if a function $f:\mathbb{R}^d\to \mathbb{R}$ and its Fourier transform $\widehat{f}$ are nonpositive at the origin and not identically zero, then they cannot both be…

Given a (reduced) locally compact quantum group $A$, we can consider the convolution algebra $L^1(A)$ (which can be identified as the predual of the von Neumann algebra form of $A$). It is conjectured that $L^1(A)$ is operator biprojective…

We describe a setup for obtaining uncertainty relations for arbitrary pairs of observables related by Fourier transform. The physical examples discussed here are standard position and momentum, number and angle, finite qudit systems, and…

We show an invariance result for the L2-torsion of groups under uniform measure equivalence provided a measure-theoretic version of the determinant conjecture holds. The measure-theoretic determinant conjecture is discussed and, for…

For certain roots of unity, we consider the categories of weight modules over three quantum groups: small, un-restricted and unrolled. The first main theorem of this paper is to show that there is a modified trace on the projective modules…
